We are a family of 5 (kids aged 15,14 and 6) and have just returned from a wonderful week in this apartment. The location is great, the beach never seemed busy and ticked the boxes for us - gentle lagoon waters for the youngest, big waves on the other side for the teenagers. The apartment was very well equipped, it was nice to have more than just the standard "6" of everything in the kitchen, it was spotlessly clean and Maria was very friendly and welcoming. The pool was great too, we were lucky enough to have it to ourselves every day. Can also recommend a drive to Sao Martinho in the evenings just along the coast, the DIY ice-cream parlour there is a must!! Many thanks Licinia for all your advice and recommendations. There aren't many holidays we can go on these days which please the teenagers and the 6 year old but this was one of them. The wi-fi was a real bonus and a lot quicker than we have at home! Highly recommended!! |

Betty Massachusetts/USA- Fantastic vacation spot for families.
Review Submitted: September 30, 2010 Date of Stay: August 2010
Wonderful apartment in great condition with all the comforts of home! From our varanda we had both ocean and lagoon views wich were absolutely beautiful! Our children (7 & 10) loved the lagoon. They were able to play and enjoy the water and as the tide went out in the afternoon they would then explore the "little islands" left behind. We would often walk the beach and look for shells. Nice soft sand, plenty of room on the beach for the children to spread out and play with their sand toys and for parents to relax and take in the sounds of the surf. They were thrilled with the infinity pool and always concluded each day with a swim. The views from the varanda are breathtaking. Beachfront restaurantes were very accomodating of our son's severe food allergies. We tried several of the restaurant and were pleased with all of our meals. Excellent fish dinners, great coffee,friendly people. Many places to visit nearby: Caldas da Rainha, Obidos,Peniche,Nazare,and Lisbon to name a few. Very kind, helpful people to rent from. They provided us with a packet of information detailing some of the amenties which gave us the opportunity to become familiar with the area in advance. We loved Foz Do Arelho and plan on visiting often. I would highly recommend this vacation spot to anyone who is considering a European vacation. You will not be disappointed!

Excellent apartment in great condition and very well equipped. Key arrangements very smooth. Lovely pool and a short walk from local beachfront restaurants although any further requires a car. Would recommend for any families - spacious and easy ground floor access.
Hi Licinia
We had a wonderful vacation and especially enjoyed our stay in Foz de Arelho. Your home is beautiful with all the conveniences of home. My children were thrilled with the bunk beds and the pool. We spent our week relaxing by the lagoon during the day and enjoying the pool in the late afternoon. We tried several restaurants that you recommended and they were also happy to accommodate our sons food allergies. Excellent food and the best coffee and ice cream.
We enjoyed meeting your mom. She gave us some highlights of the area, dining suggestions and supermarket info. Please relay our thanks to her she was so very kind.
Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. Betty, Massachusetts, U.S.A August 2010.
Hi Licinia
We had a very restful time and were delighted with the facilities.Much appreciated all arrangements went very smoothly and particularly Maria waiting for us to arrive after the usual airport delays.
Beautiful part of Portugal as yet unspoilt but we did notice the inevitable push for development-I do hope it is well controlled or the uniqueness that the locals provide will be lost.
I gather the sea frets are common in the area -this didn't bother us but it might others.
Thank you for letting us use your home.
Regards,
John, (June 2010)
Beautiful Apartment
Everything was just as we had expected, a beautiful, clean and spacious apartment this fantastic seaviews, even from the back bedrooms. Lovely swimming pool with plenty of sunshine. Just a short drive to Calda das Reina where you can find plenty of supermarkets and a fresh fish and fruit and vegetable market. We had a super time with our teenager who went surfing everyday down at the beach. Thank you for sharing your home with us. Lorena Amsterdam, NL Review Submitted: November 9, 2009
Lovely Apartment
We really enjoyed our stay at this apartment. The complex was very tidy and the pools with excellent views were a great hit with the kids. The beach was only a short stroll away with some excellent surf and calmer waters in the lagoon. The apartment itself was very very good, it was spacious, well equipped and could comfortably sleep 7 if needed. Maria the owners rep/mother was very friendly and helpful. All in all we would highly recommend this apartment.
Paul and Cath Cardiff, South Glamorgan, Date of Stay: August 2008
Foz is a wonderful location and this is a great apartment for a family. Facilities were ideal for us. The most difficult decision every day was - a few minutes down to the beach or 30 seconds down to the (3) pools? Great location for visits to Fatima, Caldas and Peniche. Safe, secure, clean and well worth considering - would highly recommend this apartment. Mr & Mrs T. - London, July 2009
Superb!

Stayed at the apartment in a group of 5 adults. Had super week 20-27 June 09. Apartment was lovely! Exactly as described on website, clean and well maintained. Didn't venture out of Foz - no need! Great shop in villlage, bars and restaurants along the beach front. Locals were so friendly.
Good to have secure garage parking esp as our group included 2 motorbikes.
Bus and train links to Lisbon Airport were fine. Hope to return soon!! Thanks Licinia.
Hi Licinia,
Apartment and location brilliant, had great time, hope to visit again. Mr. E., UK, June 2009
My family was very satisfied and enjoyed the apartment plus environment and surroundings.
I hope you will also be satisfied with us thus we may have the perspective for a 2nd trip to Foz using your apartment. Mr.&Mrs. A.E., Germany, May 2009.
Dear Licinia,
thank you very much for lending your apartment. Foz do Arelho was such a peaceful
and relaxing place to stay - not too many tourists, no huzzle and puzzle and the wheather
was just fine; not too warm because of the wind - we really enjoyed ourselves. Water in the
sea was quite cold, but it wasn't a problem thanks to the pool. Otherwise the beach was
wonderful; not too crowded. Mr. & Mrs. K.M., Finland July 2008
We had a fantastic time thank you, your apartment was lovely, very spacious and well equipped. We also enjoyed the water park and a trip to Obidos. We will definitely recommend to others as we had a lovely time and great food in the restaurants. Mr. & Mrs. C.P., UK. July 2008.
Hi there. Just a quick note to say how much we enjoyed ourselves and
how lovely your apartment is. It's really nice to stay somewhere so
well appointed.
Mr. & Mrs. B. D., U.K., (June, 2008)
We are back and very sorry to be back as it’s snowing here!

"We had a really great time thanks. The apartment was just perfect for us and we all very much enjoyed the pool, beach, bars and restaurants.
We had some day trips out and particularly enjoyed Baleal (great beaches!) and Obidos. We were very lucky that our two weeks coincided with the Medievel Market in Obidos and that was wonderful, very atmospheric and lots of fun especially in the evening." Mr.& Mrs. W. Bedfordshire, UK. August, 2007
