a Winter Week by the Sea
We stayed here for a week in February 2019. (Older couple) It only rained once during while we were there. It was pleasantly warm during the day although chilly at night. We were given a wide choice of pitches and opted for one on the upper level of the site. All the pitches seemed to be quite uneven. A significant number of dilapidated permanent units gives a bad impression looking around the site.
All of the staff were friendly and helpful. All of the reception staff spoke good English.
It would be helpful if the brochure gave dates when the facilities advertised are available. The pool and supermarket are not open at the moment. Also, Angeiras is closer to 18 kilometres from Porto rather than the 8 given in the brochure.
It is very near the airport and planes start taking off at 5:am each morning. Some might find this a problem.
We need to use the disabled facilities. On the upper level these are in a block which is accessed over a very undulating, badly maintained, cobbled pathway. Anyone in a wheelchair or with mobility problems would find it difficult. The disabled door handle had been replaced by one that needs very nimble fingers to operate. (there was no way of shutting the door on the lower disabled facilities - both points reported to staff and entered in repairs book) also no hooks or a chair to put clothes on while showering in what is essentially a wet room. Otherwise toilets etc very clean and abundant supply of hot water.
Several excellent seafood restaurants open in the village 700 metres from site entrance - reasonably priced.
Local bus to Porto takes coast road where there is tons of parking and great beaches - cost €1.60 each way. Drivers very helpful.
We would definitely consider staying there again.
