Testimonials

What Guests Say

We stayed at Azulmaris in October 2025 – simply perfect! From the moment you arrive, you can feel the love and attention to detail. Adriana and Michael are incredibly warm, helpful, and always available – you immediately feel welcome and well cared for. The apartment is high-quality, tastefully decorated, and furnished with great care. Everything feels well thought out and beautifully maintained. The kitchen is fully equipped, the beds are super comfortable, and the bathroom is modern and spotless – you can tell that every detail has been considered. The location right by the sea is dreamy, with a terrace and views of the waves. Vila Chã is quiet, authentic, and only about 30 minutes from Porto – perfect for both relaxation and exploration. I can wholeheartedly recommend Azulmaris – it was one of the most wonderful stays we’ve ever had. Thank you, Adriana and Michael, for your warmth, helpfulness, and this little piece of paradise on the Atlantic! 🌊💙

Beautiful apartment with a large terrace and sea view, exactly as pictured! Very practical furnishings, very comfortable beds, and a lovingly decorated atmosphere. The area is close to nature and authentically Portuguese, the beaches are gorgeous. Excellent communication with the friendly hosts, who kept providing us with helpful tips – thank you for that as well! We definitely want to come back, an absolute recommendation from us!!

Unlike many holiday apartments that are usually just ‘functional,’ this one is a dream! The apartment is completely new, high-quality, and extremely comfortable. Adriana has thought of everything when it comes to the furnishings, decorating the place with great care and taste. The absolute highlight is the terrace/balcony with its breathtaking view of the sea. The little village of Vila Chã is still authentic and not overrun by tourists. There are good restaurants nearby (we always ate excellent fish at Salitre), and the bakery is just around the corner (so fresh bread rolls for breakfast are always guaranteed). The Camino de Santiago passes right along the coast here, and you can walk for kilometers on a wooden boardwalk while enjoying the beautiful scenery! Adriana and her family gave us a very personal welcome, were always available, and took great care of us (they even sent us a WhatsApp warning once about high waves!).

We had a wonderful stay! The hostess is incredibly warm, attentive, and always helpful – you feel welcome from the very first moment. The apartment is beautiful and tastefully furnished. Everything is perfectly thought out, functional, and of high quality. We lacked absolutely nothing, and the cleanliness was outstanding. The location right by the sea in a charming little fishing village is simply idyllic. The Portuguese Camino passes directly in front of the apartment, leading to special encounters and a unique atmosphere in the village. Small cafés and a very good restaurant are just a few steps away. We also really enjoyed the proximity to Porto, as the city is exciting, vibrant, and absolutely impressive. A wholehearted recommendation for anyone who loves peace, nature, and the sea.

The apartment we stayed in was decorated with great care and taste. There is a feeling of well-being and "Just like home" perfect. Not to mention the view of the beach from the balcony which is superb at all times of the day.
