“Charming” and “sophisticated”
are apt descriptions for Daniel and Helen’s very special Airbnb. Chalet Sintra has been lovingly restored and has an eclectic mix of antiques and whimsical art objects.
We stayed in room #1 which was quite spacious and included its own dressing room and private balcony patio with a cafe table and chairs. If Sintra had not been so enchanting, we may never have left our room! But Sintra is a real treat and should be a travel must for anyone coming to Portugal. We now understand why Sintra is a World Heritage site.
We never met Daniel, but were in very good hands with Helen. She was warm, gracious, served a very nice breakfast every day, and prepared a special cake for guests to enjoy with coffee, tea or other beverages at any time of the day.
The Chalet Sintra 1892 is centrally locates to shops, excellent restaurants and cafes, wine and tapas bars, local castles and palaces, and exceptional gardens.
We have a friend in Colares and would definitely stay with Daniel and Helen again.
