Rui’s place is lovely from the easy parking to the view . Communication was easy and instant . He was so enthusiastic showing us the place and recommending points of interest . The house is immaculate and so well supplied with dishes , towels etc . The beds are comfortable , the room darkening shades are great and shockingly it’s quiet ! Looking up at pena palace from the darling back patio is so peaceful . If Sintra was not so exciting we could have enjoyed just hanging out for 3 days relaxing at this lovely modern place . The neighborhood is friendly and safe . We were treated so well by shopkeepers and restaurant employees.
We highly recommend staying here ! We walked up to the main sights twice but took an Uber down . It’s better to Uber up and very reasonable . We certainly had enough exercise . I was so happy that Rui recommended we not drive up . It’s very complicated on the steep narrow roads and my rental was a standard shift .
Rui is so nice and so enthusiastic .
We loved our stay here !
2 bathrooms is a huge plus especially when getting ready in the mornings . It’s a very well thought out air bnb with nice touches . It should be the gold standard for how to run an air bnb . Rui is truly a super host !
