"The area of access, beach, supermarket etc... very good. Staff and managers are very friedely. But the café da manha should be improved and the furnitures and stuffs needs to be updated. Over all I was happy as I was alone and the beach was just in the corner which was my priority. That beach very good and walking distance of 5 minutes. "
