Cool Water | Casa Pet-Friendly à Beira do Canal com Piscina Privada + Cais

Nice property with a great location. Home is perfect for a small family vacation. The pool and dock are a great bonus

Only 2 stars for many reasons. Pros. The house was comfortable, in a nice quiet neighborhood. Relaxing.Cons.: I booked this place to be able to swim. The property amenities list a pool. It's not noted until the last sentence under the property description that the pool is not heated and not usable during my stay. Solar heating lines on the roof, have been disconnected.Initially the house looked clean, but this was superficial. All of the air duct vents have black mold growing on them. Two, in the LR, even had black mold on the ceiling around the vents.Several pieces of cookware still had food on them. We had to wash before cooking.The kitchen has three blenders, one works. Two coffee pots, only one works. Two of the four slices in the toaster do not work. One of the two lounge chairs by the pool is too broken to use. Panels, on the LR vertical blind have been broken off, leaving a two-foot gap. No privacy. There's a motion sensor in the main bedroom. The soaker tub had a note on it saying to not use, as it was not connected to the drain. The only tub in the home was mentioned and pictured when I rented the place last Sept. So, the tub has then not been usable for at least six months.The door code was wrong. Fortunately, that was resolved. It was also raining when we arrived and the garage was not accessible. Would have been nice to unpack without getting everything wet. This could be a really nice place if the owner would fix things.

The property was clean and the lay-out of the house was nice. The only discrepancy between the description and the house was the bedding; it states sheets and pillows provided, bring your own blankets. There were in fact comforters on all of the beds so we packed bulky blankets for no reason. My only suggestion to make things a little nicer for multiple ladies trying to get ready at one time would be to add mirrors in each of the bedrooms. Although the pool looked very clean and inviting, it was too early in the season to take a plunge, but we did enjoy our mornings and evenings sitting on the patio by it. Thank you for opening up your house to us- we enjoyed our stay there.

Good time

Property was clean. Beds were comfortable. Rooms were spacious. Pool was nice and well maintained. Poolside lounge chairs could be improved / replaced but were usable. Overall a nice stay. If you’re looking for peaceful home with private pool, this property delivers.
