Everything about this house was wonderful! We really enjoyed our stay here. It was an absolute wonderful setup and a really relaxing place to return to after a day of sightseeing. The pictures are very acurate but it was even more lovely in person. We would stay here again in a heartbeat! Thank you for sharing your home with us!
Great villa and our family had a wonderful stay. Spacious, well equipped with a lovely pool we wanted for nothing! Close to lovely beaches and the magical town of sintra this truly is a great base for you to explore. Some lovely restaurants within walking distance as well. We will return
The villa was perfect for our needs. Well equipped and very comfortable. Also nice and secure with the gated driveway entrance. Good sunbeds and nice clean pool. We loved it.
We have stayed at many rental properties over the years and this house stands out as one of the very best. Mafalda met us on arrival, showed us around and I was immediately impressed by the quality of everything in the house. I really cannot fault it and if I returned to the area I would not hesitate to stay again.
Amazing home away from home. The area is perfect location with so many amenities including 4 showers. Mafalda was so welcoming. We will definitely come back again. We loved adraga beach, cascais beach. For foodTasc julio, gigi pizza, adraga resturant were our favorites.
The property is in immaculate condition and had everything we needed for a relaxing holiday, including a separate play room for our children. The restaurants in Colares are lovely and an easy walk.
We had a wonderful stay with our family in this beautiful villa with a relaxing swimming pool and spacious outdoor area, perfectly located in the heart of Sintra. We would be happy to come back. Thank you for a memorable stay!
This home is spectacular, all the amenities needed, clean, comfortable, spacious, close walking distance to cute town of Colares where there are grocery markets and coffee shops and the cutest ducks!!! Will definitely come back again!

Thank you so much.
You and your lovely family are always welcome.
Very clean, spacious and comfortable, everything provided including multi channel TV.
Host, Mafalda, very helpful and full of local knowledge. Check in process very smooth.
Would recommend.
Thank you for excellent holidays. We enjoyed it a lot. The house was perfect for us. It was really clean, the house, the pool and all around. We would like to come back for another wonderful stay.
Photos do not do the property justice, spotless and so much space. Fabulous host. 10 min drive from the coast, great public transport links and situated in a lovely village. Thank you
We had a great stay in Colares. The house, gardens and pool were immaculate, communication with Mafalda excellent and the pool is in the sun all day which is a bonus. The supermarket is an easy walk and we found a craft beer bar called Hopsin next door which did great tapas.
Really clean and tidy casa with a lot of space, terrasses and a great and super clean pool. The kids loved it. Very modern house, equipped with everything we needed. Also the owner was really kind and friendly. The location was perfect for surfing at the Beach "Praia Grande", bouldering/climbing and sightseeing around Sintra and hiking on the near coast. Perfect holiday for us.
Everything about this property was great for a large family group. Spotlessly clean, and plenty of room to spread out. It is in a very convenient location, with shops etc. in walking distance and many places of tourist interest a short drive away. There is good attention to housekeeping and pool maintenance. Mafalda, who runs the property was a joy to meet and her excellent English made communication very straightforward.
The villa and it's location suited us perfectly. The pool area is every bit as lovely as the photos and the interior of the villa was even better then we expected. Everything was spotlessly clean, communication with the host was extremely straight-forward and she was very welcoming and helpful.
For anyone wanting to explore the Sintra national forest and it's attractions, the nearby Atlantic coast, or take a day trip into Lisbon, the location is ideal.
Really a beautiful place .. better than the pictures.
We had a large 7-person van which was a bit too large for the area and property. If we'd had a normal sized vehicle it would have been absolutely perfect.
Mafalda was very good.
