Guest comments
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION - perfect. This is our second visit to Sal. Although we enjoyed our 1st visit when we stayed in Murdeira, there was no comparison to the fabulous position of the Porto Antigo Residence. The bars and restaurants of Santa Maria were a short stroll away.
Tom Wood Nov 07/ No 38

A beautiful, accessible piece of paradise, the pictures just don't do it justice. The Porto Antigo Resience has the perfect setting, we can't wait to go back it certainly 'ticked all our boxes'.
Jackie & Brian Nov 06/ number 13

In our view Porto Antigo is the place to stay on Sal and avoid all the pitfalls of being dumped far out in an outlying development.
Chris Wastell March 07 / No. 38

We had a wonderful holiday in number 13 and really didn’t want to leave the island. Even though I am disabled I managed really well the only steps are 2 from the patio. I am looking forward to returning in January when I will stay for a few weeks.
