Super stay at Casa Salenca
First impression was how accurate were the photos and description of the villa in the VRBO ad. Absolutely spot on! The villa instruction book covered everything about the Olhos d agua area. With which we were already familiar, as we had wintered from Canada several times before. This year was a bit chilly, but the bedrooms were equippedwith samsung fan heater units. Only the lounge/dining room felt chilly as it is open to the hallway and front door. Soon rectified with permission to use the fireplace which has a blower to circulate the heat to the room; so we were soon cosy! The kitchen was well equipped with highend stainless cookware and small applliances, (but this being Portugal..care needed to not use (eg)toaster and kettle together! The pool area was a wonderful sun trap(tanning area). The patio adjoining the living area was comfortably furnished and we enjoyed al fresco meals there; and used the BBQ in the shady courtyard below.
The 4 bedrooms each had 2 beds, medium comfortable. We would have liked less lumpy, higher grade pillows! Though. Restaurants and Supermarket are walking distance. The accesss to the beach and cliff walking trails was nearby..serviced by well maintained stairs.
All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. (Be aware, though, electricity use, separately billed and visibly metered could be a higher charge than you would expect to pay in cash at the end of your vacation!) Cautious use of heating and A/C recommended. Hope this info is helpful!
