This apartment is stunning and comfortable. The balcony with a broad, birds eye, tree filled view down to the the meeting of the Teju river and the Atlantic is the perfect place for a cup of coffee and pasteis de nata in the morning. Everything is very clean and new, and it feels secure. It was very spacious for two adults and two large teenage boys. We could have comfortably have fit two more in the fold out living room bed. Darling sunroom off the main bedroom also has a sweeping view of the the tree filled gorge and up to the Sintra hills. Washing and drying clothes in the apartment was easy, there is an international grocery store a 5 minute walk up the hill. The town center is a 10 minute walk down the hill. The hosts responded immediately to a few questions. I would stay here again in a minute.
