The place is very amazing. Carlos takes great care of the garden and make it nice and clean each morning. That goes for the pool too. The appartement is nicely located in a quite area but not too far from all the activities (around 20 to 30 min to beaches - Sintra - etc). There's a beach almost down the street if you get tired of the pool and do not want to take the car to go anywhere. all the ingredients for a nice holiday are at Carlos's and Gina's place. But the best is yet to come cause the hosts were just so generous, kind and helpfull with us, it made a truly unique holiday for us. Love from us to Gina and Carlos.
