- The climate in Portugal can be hot and humid at certain times of the year, which may favor the appearance of mosquitoes, ants, or other small insects.

We do everything in our power to prevent this situation and ask our guests to cooperate by keeping doors closed, disposing of trash properly, and storing food responsibly.
