We (me, my husband and toddler) had a fab 10 days in Monte Estoril - great location - a quiet spot but with a handful of nice restaurants, 2 bakeries and a park (and playground that our 2 year old loved!!) right on the doorstep. An easy 10 min stroll (down hill) to the beach and train station, and Luis couldn't have been more helpful with advice and tips as needed! Would recommend and will look to stay here again should we return to the area!
