Apartment in Apulia, 300 m from the beach

This was the second time I've stayed in this unit, and I enjoyed it again very much. Its location is wonderful with the beach, restaurants, stores, etc., all within walking distance. The weather was a bit cool and rainy at times but this part of Portugal is fantastic. I like the fact that this unit has a full kitchen so cooking and eating is easier.

If you're looking for a little seaside village in Northern Portugal to escape to, you'd be hard pressed to find a better place to rent. This is a good place for a couple and 2 kids. This is a ground floor unit which means there is a GENEROUS sized enclosed terrace with sitting areas, umbrella and grill. And there is one subterranean parking space. Rooms: There is one large bedroom with a queen/full sized bed. This master bedroom has its own sliding doors to the terrace. The second bedroom is small with a twin sized bed and another bed that pulls out. The washer is in a closet in this small room (I did not use). Both rooms have good sized closets. Bathroom: there is one large bathroom with a sink, toilet, bidet and LARGE tub/shower combo. Living Area/Kitchen: The main living and eating area is a kitchen and living room that you enter from the door to the unit. The kitchen has a refrigerator/freezer, microwave, oven, Nespresso machine, electric kettle, stove, dishwasher and sink. The kitchen has sufficient quantities of dishes, utensils, pots and pans, and other cooking supplies. There is a square dining table with four chairs. The living area has a good sized couch and concave TV. Utilities: The TV has lots of choices, even some English speaking shows with Portuguese subtitles. The wifi was excellent. There is no A/C or central heat in the unit although a plug in heater is provided if needed. Things to do: The unit is basically 2 city blocks away from the beach and ocean and the restaurants and bars in the heart of Apulia. There is some outstanding places to eat. 'Nuff said. Getting there: This was a bit tricky at first. It didn't help that I came in late at night from Porto in a serious rain and wind storm. I highly recommend using Google Maps to navigate your way; Apple Maps was not very useful or accurate. Owner: Ricardo was patient and awesome. I had so many questions that I couldn't figure out how to use. Make sure to connect with him on WhatsApp before you get there. But he was able to walk/talk me through what I needed and I'm grateful. Overall, this was a great place to stay (I was there for one week), and I will be back looking to get this place again. I highly recommend this place!
