Large house with character
We had an excellent stay at Villa Maxima.
The location is good - the neighbourhood is quiet and it is possible to walk to Praia das Macas from the house. The house is very large, in total we were 11 guests and did not have to use a couple of the bedrooms. The house has a nice traditional character. The kitchen has recently been upgraded - it is large and well equipped. The pool area is excellent, though the outside grill is somewhat disappointing, located away from the house and in need of some upgrade. We did have an issue with a sprinkler creating a large muddy area just outside the garden door exit. We asked for it to be sorted twice and while the property manager promised ask the gardener to sort, nothing happened. Not a major issue, but it should have been a simple fix to avoid us having to jump in and out of the house. The property manager was otherwise very helpful.
What would make this five stars? A bit of view and closer to the beach - nothing not known at the time of booking.
