perfect accommodation
This city and beach house was perfect for us. It is close to the beach and all you need is nearby in a walking distance like restaurants, bus station, supermarkets, tourist info, the city and the public swimming pool. Carlos, our host, is very friendly and tries to help whereever he can. The day we arrived we found some local products like cheese, biscuits, jam and beverage. There are parking lots round the corner and from Ribeira Grande you can reach every corner of the island within an hour. Some interesting sightseeings are only a few minutes away. From the backyard of the house you can watch the sunset and the house itself has more space as you can see at the pictures. If we visit the island again we would definitely book this nice house again.
