This airbnb is was the perfect spot for our vacation! There were just two of us, so the open space of the studio was perfect. The views are even more spectacular than the pictures show- even better than we saw from some of the castles in Sintra! The private terrace area was so peaceful and special, and the shared terrace and pool were gorgeous too. In the morning, we could have coffee and watch the sun rise over the towns below and listen to the roosters. At night, we watched all of the town's lights flicker on. It was so magical- this place is such a hidden gem.

Jane was so kind and friendly and gave us lots of tips about places to eat and explore. We only wish we had more time. The nearby towns had plenty of restaurants with amazing food. We recommend renting a car and taking it slow on the narrow roads (Jane luckily told us about an easier way to get up and down the mountain). We took day trips to Lisbon, Sintra, and Obidos/Peniche (which we highly recommend) and went down to the nearby beaches. Much of our time was spent driving around exploring the winding roads and coastline. Unfortunately the heat and fire risk closed down most of the tourist attractions we were planning on visiting, but we wouldn't have traded this vacation for anything. We fell in love with this area of Portugal and are already planning our next visit.
Thank you so much, Jane!
