Lovely stay at Ricardo's place. The apartment has a nice touch and the amenities are great. The bed is super comfortable and I felt like I was sleeping on a cloud. Loved the shower features (rain head shower) and hot water after a day of exploring beautiful Sintra. We visited Ricardo's recommendations- Praia Grande, Praia das Maçãs, Azenhas do Mar, and even hiked Praia da Ursa. Highly recommend eating at Society Colarense which is one minute walking from the Airbnb. Tell Celeste that we sent you thanks to Ricardo's recommendation! Her cooking is absolutely amazing and we throughly enjoyed our portuguese meal and chatting with Celeste.
The neighborhood is local and the neighbors are friendly. The backyard has a seating area and at night you can see the stars, vividly- the clearest I've seen in Portugal at night. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend visiting. We will be back! Thanks again.
