Casa de Cama is a lovely villa with a breathtaking view to many of the most famous castles in Sintra. The villa is spacious and very well equipped - both inside and outside. We missed nothing! The villa is cleaned twice a week and bed-linens changed once weekly. The garden and pool-area is large and beautiful and perfect for families with active children. We recommend car rental since there will be quite a walking distance from the house to the most nearby supermarket. A car also makes the stunning castles and historical center of Sintra easily available. We visited Sintra often during our stay and even the relatively short car-trip up there is a fascinating experience in itself. Praia Grande and Praia das Macas are two beautiful beaches around 4 km away, but the waves are very strong, so for swimming, Cascais/Estoril will be good alternatives for families with smaller kids. Filipa was a friendly and easily available hostess before and during the stay if we had any questions. We absolutely recommend this villa and area if you want to visit Portugal.
