If you like feeling at home, this is the place to stay in Sintra. Maria treated us like family, she recommended us great places to visit in Sintra and nearby towns, respected our privacy in our room and made the rest of the house available for us. She is genuinely nice, a lovely person that will make you want to come back to the beautiful Sintra. The room and the bathroom are spacious, bigger than it looks in the pictures. The room is quiet, you'll sleep like a baby. The house is 5 minutes walking distance from great restaurants and a little longer from the city center, close enough to walk but a little out of the tourists way, which I appreciate considering the high flow of visitors that Sintra receives during peak season. You won't regret staying at Maria's, you'll regret not staying longer. Beautiful memories.
