Chrystalina’s chalet is a couple kilometers from some spectacular coastline and a very short walk to the charming little town of Almocageme. It’s also just a 30-minute or so bus ride (leaving each hour) from Sintra, which is well worth the trip. From Sintra, it’s a 40-minute train ride to Lisbon, so you can stay close to the ocean, but still be close to the city.
