To all of you guys out there, if you are thinking of visiting Cascais incl. surrounding towns and this apartment is still available, BOOK IT!
I suppose, it is that simple but let me give you some of the pros which contributed to our truly great trip (there were no cons really there):
* quiet and secluded and safe location with grocery store and a local Pastelaria (sandwich and cake cafeteria) at your doorstep
* walking proximity (approx. 15min) from centre of Cascais)
* free and always available car parking space outside the building
* public transport (bus stop) available - 3 min walk
* apartment's space - it is larger than on the listing's photographs and you will be presently surprised. In fact, this is probably something we enjoyed the most when it comes to this apartment, THE SHEAR SPACE IT PROVIDES
* great Wi-Fi, two large balconies, large TV with all its international channels (if you need it), air-conditioning throughout the apartment (again, if you need it), greatly spec kitchen with all you will ever need to fix yourself a meal or a delicious coffee ;-), large and comfy bathroom with walk in shower for two ;) and a second WC, etc.etc.etc...
There where three of us staying there but the apartment can easily accommodate 5 or perhaps even 6 persons.
The owner Edwin or his mum Olinda were always available to answer all our questions with practically immediate response time. I can honestly say, we have experienced Portuguese hospitality at its best and could not be more great fuel for it.
Many, many thanks for everything Edwin and Olinda.
