Host welcoming after our delayed arrival, driver waited over an hour at the airport for us which was much appreciated - aircraft baggage delayed.
Apartment very well equipped, new, clean, comfortable - we couldn't have asked for more. Bed comfortable, shower efficient and air con worked brilliantly.
Complimentary bottle of Portuguese wine on arrival a nice touch.
Apartment block, grounds and swimming pool well looked after. Plenty of sunbeds around the pool and never too busy. In fact we were on our own on several occasions.
Bakery and small supermarket 5 minutes walk.
Cascais town centre probably 35/45 minutes walk away. No problem as bus stop outside apartment block with buses every 15 mins to the town at 1 Euro per person.
Cascais is a lovely town with a few beaches and plenty of restaurants. Our favourite restaurant was near to the apartment. Walk down towards the roundabout and turn left. Walk for approx 5/10 minutes and you will find Entraguas. Not the cheapest but food delicious.
All public transport efficient and reasonably priced. Cascais to Lisbon approx 40 minutes on the train. Sintra approx 45 minutes on the bus.
We particularly enjoyed Tram 28, Castelo de Sao Jorge and the Elevator (The Santa Justa Lift) in Lisbon. Belem is great and Pena Palace in Sintra is an absolute must.
We would like to visit Cascais again and would definitely book Alda's apartment.
