An amazing villa in a great location. Spacious and very well equipped. Lovely pool and views to the valley behind, which include the beach. The resort is small, but there are several restaurants and two supermarkets within an easy walk.
A favourite spot was a former glamping site just around the corner, including a craft beer place selling several really nice draught IPAs and food outlets for Mexican, burgers, sushi, pizzas and pasta. So good we visited twice!
The old tram to Sintra was an enjoyable if somewhat slow experience. The bus is quicker if you want more time in Sintra to explore. We visited Lisbon by taking the bus to Sintra then the train, which was easy to do and not expensive.
We had a really enjoyable break, made all the better by the amazing villa and the great hosting by Ralph.
