Maria Luisa's place is a charming and comfortable pool house. The pool and house are on a kind of terrace behind the main house, which makes it very private. The pool is very inviting, but we did not use it because the weather was quite cool (end of September), but it would be a terrific way to end a busy day in warm weather. The kitchen is well supplied. One bedroom has a queen bed and the second bedroom has three single beds - perfect for a family. I definitely recommend Maria Luisa's place and would stay here again if we return to Sintra.
