We enjoyed a 13 night stay at Vila Marta and the sun shone every day on the Vila. It was peaceful and relaxing. The hosts Joel and son Bruno ensured we were well looked after, like family. We were given information about restaurants and take aways, although I like to do a little cooking myself, the vila was certainly well... More
