My stay here was absolutely lovely! It’s a peaceful place and best part since I’m light sensitive is you can close all shutters and have total darkness while sleeping. It’s walking distance to key bus lines and I got the 24 hr unlimited bus pass. I also took the 1940’s trolley from beach to Sintra- it passes right through Colares. Only runs twice a day in winter. Beaches nearby are stunning. I was able to enjoy beginning of December! Hosts are an absolutely lovely couple. Didn’t see or hear them much after I arrived but they were easily reachable and incredibly accommodating upon arrival. Would stay again! Love this area. Make sure to explore Cascais I liked it better than Sintra village.
