Villas in Sintra

The villa was spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated, very comfortable and extremely well equipped. The outside space was equally pristine and we enjoyed the pool, although it was a bit chilly in May and it would have benefitted from some heating. The villa itself in a really peaceful location, and it's walking distance to the lovely beach at 'Praie Maca', where there are also some great restaurants, cafes and a small, well-stocked supermarket. Recommend vintage tram trip to Sintra, but easiest to book an Uber for a day trip to Lisbon (both reasonably priced). Body boarding at Praie Grande was superb and enjoyed by all, especially as we had the entire beach to ourselves! All in all, a great holiday, highly recommended - hopefully we'll return again soon. Thank you.

We had a really nice week in the holiday home. It is very nice and clean, and well maintained, and the service was absolutely top notch. It might be a bit further away from what we would like to see than we had imagined. But otherwise the area is very authentic, and the tourism was completely gone.

We had a great week holiday in the Turquesa casa. The house is large and it is very convenient to have a corner with your own bathroom. We enjoyed the location because we are only 1 km from the ocean and not far from the Pena de Sintra and Cabo da Roca. Our owner welcomed us and recommended an excellent restaurant in Praia das Maças xxx which I recommend in my turn! The Wifi internet worked perfectly. Thank you for everything xxx, we are delighted!

Wow what an amazing find. This villa is wonderful. The location is excellent for seeing the beautiful coast, the city of Lisbon and towns such as Sintra. If going into Lisbon for the day would recommend getting the train from Portela de Sintra. Easy incredibly cheap parking at the station (1.5 euros) and a cheap all day travel ticket (10 euros) into Lisbon which also covers all trams, buses and metro, excellent value! The villa itself is fantastic, three of the bedrooms bedrooms are huge! and the fourth is a normal double size - all are ensuite. Gianpiero is a wonderful host, around if you need help or advice, but only when you need him. There are so many areas to chill and sun bathe that we as a party of 6, frequently lost each other, which at times was very nice !! If you had young children it would be a wonderful place to play hide and seek!!!!! The pool is brilliant - used it loads. It is completely secure so again if you have small children you can ensure they can't access it independently, as it is about 1.7 to 2 meters deep with no shallow end - which was wonderful for us as the youngest in our party were 22 so almost sensible!! Gianpiero has thought of everything, from the welcome pack - which was great to little things like loo rolls, dishwasher tablets and washing machine tablets - the sort of thing that is a hassle to bring with you and a waste of time and money to buy. Regarding the village - it has few amenities but it does have 3 restaurants all of which are very good and a few bars which are also excellent. There is a frequent bus service which goes up and down the coast, into most villages and Sintra, but a car is useful especially for big grocery trips. Would I recommend this villa - absolutely!!!!!!!!!! Would I re-book if coming to Portugal again - in a heart beat, as would all in our party. We will all remember this holiday, Gianpiero and our wonderful villa very fondly.
