We stayed here on a recent trip to Portugal. Almost everywhere that we stayed, hosts or managers were very polite. At Residencia Praia Norte, the owners or managers were extremely rude and disrespectful, and basically ruined our stay there. The rooms themselves are not that great, but are passable. We booked three rooms, for our family as well as friends visiting from Spain. We put our friends in the nice terrace room, and when we went to the terrace for a glass of wine during the later afternoon, the owners came over and said we weren't allowed there. My wife later complained, and the owners accused us of damaging the rooms, annoying other guests, playing loud music, and parking four (4) cars on the property, all of which were complete lies. TBH, I don't think I've ever encountered such rude managers or owners of a property. It's also worth mentioning that while this property is walking distance to Praia Norte, that is not the best beach for swimming. The water is rough with bad currents, and it's windy. It's a nice beach to walk on and to look at the waves, but the beach near the town of Nazare is better for swimming; although there, parking is a problem.
