Perfect!!

Stayed with 5 other females for a 4 night break. Not only was the villa equipped with everything you could possible need, it was spotlessly clean and spacious with lots of seating areas inside and around the pool. There was plenty of space to spread out and take a few minutes to yourself away from the others if and when any of needed to. All the beds were super comfy. The villa owner really did think of everything, from displaying interesting items and artwork to admire, through to ironing boards, coffee machine etc. the villa is well located, 15 minute walk to the beach, supermarket and restaurants. We loved House of Wonders for brunch and dinner. They served the best sangria we tasted throughout our stay. We spent a day in Lisbon and a day in Sintra, both were easy to travel to. We chose Uber as it worked out easiest and most economical since 6 of us were sharing the costs. We al enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning. Thank you Vicky, your house is beautiful and you obviously take much pride in renting your property.

The most wonderful week

We had an absolutely brilliant time at this property. We were a group of 8 who travelled for a family holiday. The house was fantastic and had the most wonderful pool. The area is really lovely, situated between Lisbon and Cascais and if you are looking for a relaxed and chilled out time then this is the place for you. Rui the owner was really helpful and Felipe who met us on check-in and helped arrange a driver to take us to Fatima as well could not have been nicer. A 5 star review all round from me- I think we will be back! :)

Lovely traditional apartment in the centre’s of cascais

Really nice, clean and cosy apartment right in the centre near restaurants and bars, also just 5 minutes walk to the marina. Possibly a bit too noisy for really small children though surprisingly quiet with all the windows closed.
