Casa Macuti - Convento das Bernardas

The pool is the reason we return here. It is stunning. The houses are clean and functional. Great to have the outside space and view from this house. AC a welcome cool treat after the hot weather. The apartments are close to town and easy to get around.

The top bedroom ceiling window / shutter did not close so my ( 6 yo) daughter was woken with the sun every day. This made a huge difference compared to another house we had last year. The staff do not have a huge amount of charm and the rules are rigid, which work well but could be delivered in a slightly more enchanting way. You cannot leave washing to dry outside or chairs unless specific chairs. However when neighbors had a loud party until late nothing was said. Hard to get in touch with the host when the power went out.

Location was perfect. Loved the local market. Breakfast was great at market. Loved watching the flamingos. Just wished we could get Wi-Fi outside when we sat on the chairs outside. The pool was wonderful. Lots of friendly people to chat to and not noisy in the evenings.

Just wish we could have got wi fi outside.
