This was my second visit to Sintra and I couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay! Lisa was such an amazing host, very friendly, welcoming and helpful with great suggestions.
The apartment was beautifully renovated with amazing views over Sintra, the Moorish castle up on the hill, all the way out to the Atlantic in the distance. It was larger than I expected, very nicely decorated with two lovely balconies. And I absolutely loved the gardens with colorful flowers, orange trees and a goldfish pond. The house and garden were of a fairy tale!
I had a car, it was nice to have parking but I only used it to drive to the larger grocery store. A 5 min drive. You can easily walk to town, and better to take Ubers (inexpensive) to see local attractions given traffic and parking rules. Or hike!
Muito obrigada Lisa! If I come back to Sintra for a third visit I hope to stay here again!
