Our stay at Lisa's home was a highlight of our recent 10-day trip to Portugal. The space is beautiful (both inside and outside), the views from the second-floor unit are amazing, and our space had all the comforts we needed for a very pleasant stay. We very much liked the location- close enough to walk to town and many of the main Sintra sights, yet far enough away from the hustle and bustle to feel secluded from the crowds when returning to the house. As much as we loved the home and gardens, what's best about this place is Lisa! She met us immediately upon our arrival, sat down with us and a Sintra map and helped us plan our few days in the area. With her help we knew exactly how to walk to the Moorish castle, got insider tips for visiting the Pena Palace, learned about the best spots in town for breakfast and meals, where to catch the bus to Cascais, etc. . . Lisa is incredibly generous with her local knowledge and seems to genuinely want her guests to have a great time in Sintra. Without reservations, we strongly recommend this home to anyone visiting Sintra and we hope to stay here again one day.
