We had a very nice stay at Simona’s place. We enjoyed the proximity to the Tamariz beach (1 block) and to the train (30mins to Lisbon and maybe 5-10mins to Cascais), as well as the amazing promenade from Estoril to Cascais right at our doorstep. If you enjoy playing at the Casino, it is right there too. The city of Cascais is very charming and a must see. We had some small issues initially that Simona was very quick to help fix (even in the middle of the night!) In general we expected some more modern amenities (no paper in toilet, no general heating -but fireplace and adds on heaters-which in summer would be a no issue anyway) but it was totally workable for a few days, even with young kids. The beautiful garden was certainly a great plus for all of us to enjoy the morning sun (with a trampoline and swing!:-)) Simona was super friendly and always available to help so you have the best stay possible!
