This was a wonderful place to stay and our room was awesome! Very nice features. Close to the beach and the Seven Hanging Valley trail. Gorgeous. Breakfast was excellent. It was a remote location so less people and tourists which was great but also far from other amenities. For example, at least 15 minute drive to get to other restaurants. Food at Vila Alba was very expensive. Check-in staff were great.

Falesia Beach

4.5/5(77 reviews)

Pine groves crown the scorched red-orange cliffs edging this long and wide beach, complete with comfortable amenities, watersports options and lifeguard patrols.

Today I walked. And walked. And walked. Until I could walk no more. Then I sat down and watched the surfers catch a wave. I listened to music.

Whatever I did - i was fully present. I was there. Nowhere else. Coz all we ever have and all we will ever have is this present moment.

Everything else is an illusion.

Everything has passed. The rest will follow. But right now: this is all I have.
