We spent 10 days at this very attractive & comfortable property in Barra, Portugal. The apartment was spacious & well-equipped with reliable high-speed Internet, HDTV, comfortable bed with high-quality linens, and a full kitchen outfitted with everything available for even ambitious cooks.
The host's sister & niece met us to orient us to the apartment & check us out on our departure.
The location was outstanding for us. Because we walk 2-3 hours a day, Barra offered a wide variety of different venues, all beautiful - ocean, village, tidal flats - and all with wide pedestrian boulevards. Barra has plenty of commercial establishments without feeling touristy - grocery stores, restaurants, bakeries, other shops - but is also a 10-minute drive to the Averia Center mall with both Pingo Doce & Continente supermarkets, etc.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay & will consider a return to this property, our best recommendation.
