Marlene has the most beautiful home which is located in an area of Sintra that is filled with restaurants and activities to explore. The house has a beautiful tiled garden area with blooming rose bushes, potted flowers, and fruit trees. We spent our mornings drinking coffee and our evenings drinking wine just sitting out on the porch surrounded by the garden's beauty. The house is very clean and Marlene provides extra towels, blankets and coffee! The house is located by many of the popular Sintra sites and are easily accessible by UBER, taxi, bus or if able, walking. If we ever get the chance to return to Sintra, Portugal, we will definitely be staying at 'Casa das Rosas.'
