Holiday rentals near Centro Interpretativo da História do Bacalhau

With the farm area surrounded by a big wall and gate, the property feels quiet and secure. The "farm" itself is not a busy working area and you are unaware of anything going on. The owners met us when we arrived and took the opportunities to check everything was alright when our paths crossed but otherwise we didn't see them. The swimming pool was a massive 12m x 6m, spotless and cleaned and treated regularly and was very welcome at 40C. Things to be aware of are that the villa does not have air conditioning but it does have shutters all around to keep the sun out. Additionally the WiFi was slow and there was no TV - totally welcome and not a problem in our case but it might impact some people.

I was a little nervous about staying at this location due to lack of reviews and information on the site; however, it was a very pleasant experience. It was also very clean. First, we stayed on the 2nd floor. As most places in Portugal, the ground floor is zero and one flight up is 1st floor. There is an elevator for luggage, which for my heavy packer family, was most appreciated. The door has a code on it, and was emailed to me prior to my arrival, which was also very easy. Second, the kitchen was well stocked with dishes and pots and pans if you want to cook. We cooked breakfast every morning and there is a small market just across the street and a larger grocery/mart not to far away. Remember to bring some bags or you can purchase some at the store. Third, we used the washer a lot during our stay and it was very nice to have one in the apartment. I did ask for extra towels and we had 2 towels a piece and a floor mat, no wash cloths (but that is common for Europe). I could have used instructions for the washer and never figured out how to start the dryer cycle in the all-in-one but there was a rack provided. I would definitely stay in this place again and have stayed in several apartments in Europe, and would consider this to be one of the best! Neighborhood was wonderful and safe! Unit was clean and we thoroughly enjoyed the place. I can not say enough positive things about this place and will stay again if we travel to Lisbon. Thank you for a great place!

Super clean and modern space that was well maintained and in a great location in the city. Perfect place for a city getaway

Susana had organised a taxi to pick us up and when we arrived she welcomed us with a tour of her beautiful apartment. And left us a present of pasta de natas-custard tarts. The apartment was ideal for our needs with plenty of room, very comfortable, and with everything you could need for a weekend. It is about 10mins from the metro and the main street- avenue de liberdade- easily within walking distance. Plenty of restaurants nearby and a couple of supermarkets as well. There are plenty of ubers and taxis about if required. We were able to keep in touch with Susana as our plans had changed slightly and nothing was a problem. We would definitely visit again.

Absolutely lovely property, Mafalda was efficient and delightful. We highly recommend you very seriously consider staying here!

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! :)
