The hosts, Pedro and Teresa, are really nice and attentive people. When we arrived at the appartment, we received a welcome pack of fresh fruits. The apartment is just like on the pictures, really cosy and clean. There is a hangmat, the kitchen has all the equipment one needs to prepare breakfast and/or dinner. We even received a pack of fine coffee-paths for free. The bedroom is spacious and clean. We slept very well. In the morning, after a couple of rounds in the swimming pool and a shower, we started visiting Cascais and/or Sintra. And to make things easy, Teresa prepared an incredible detailed book wih pictures and text about the nearest shops like bakers or grocery stores, touristic attractions, restaurants, beaches, Sintra tours, bars, bike rent, trips to do etc. The BIG book even contains timetables of the local buses. It is an AMAZING book if you don't want to lose your time finding out all the practical details about how to organize your vacation. Also the night before we took our flight, we received an e-mail from Teresa with all the available options/timetables about how to get from LIsbon airport to the apartment in Cascais. How amazing is this?? It's by far the best travel instruction book by any host I have ever seen. This proves only how kind and nice these hosts are and their eye for detail. So we had a wonderful stay in this apartment in Cascais. Highly recommended!!
