We very much enjoyed staying in the villa. We were 4 couples + 2 children, and the layout etc worked well for us. The villa was well-appointed, the basement games-room a bonus for rainy days. With 10 people the dishwasher corner was always busy. Fantastic library of equipment-manuals; great wifi. The pool was in constant use, though the water was colder than it should have been, as the cover was not working properly (it's being fixed...).
As to location the villa is well situated on the edge of Colares, so we could walk to the shops and the lovely restaurant (and the brew-pub!), and drive to many places and beaches very easily. Not to be missed, the tram ride to Sintra
Marilia the house manager is brilliant. She told us where we could order a supermarket delivery, and (from her sick-bed) she and her assistants solved a couple of problems very quickly (maybe the house was still waking up after COVID).
Would we return? Yes we would!
