LAST MINUTE OFFER **** SINTRA BEACH HOUSE, Sintra-Cascais Park with Heated Pool Reviews

This is a beautiful property, stunning views off to the coast with evening sunsets. It was a little windy during our stay but there was always somewhere you could find to sit in a sheltered spot and enjoy the sun. The pool is fabulous being heated and we really enjoyed the layout and decor of the property. The house manager and owner were both incredibly helpful at check in and out and organising a local taxi for us one evening too. We had great trips out to Azenhos Do Mar, Ericeira, Sintra, Libon and Cascais and some of the most amazing seafood both in restaurants but also that we bought from markets and used we made good use of the gas and charcoal BBQ's and the outdoor plancher too. Victoria really went out of her way to give us advice on restaurants and fish markets too. She and Antonio couldn't have been more helpful.

We had a lovely stay at this property, which was not only as gorgeous as in the photos, but was exceptionally well equipped and perfectly clean. Everything was in perfect working order. Excellent communication and welcome: The host was in touch well in advance to answer any questions and offer any assistance or advice we needed, and the on -the-ground property manager was highly responsive, helpful and pleasant. Perfect, really. We hope to return.

We had a wonderful 2 weeks staying at this property, seas views and sunsets. This is a wonderful part of Portugal, especially if you love to surf. The villa is large and well equipped for families of all ages. I particularly loved the heated pool. The owners have thought of everything. There was nothing we didn’t have, we made use of the large firepit. There was a wonderful welcome gift basket of Portuguese food and wine and gifts for the boys too. Very thoughtful of the owner. Roberto who checked us in could not have been more helpful especially for finding where to get our Covid tests. The surrounding area and beaches are fantastic and there are many wonderful seafood restaurants to choose from. The only thing is you cannot walk to a village but the views, pool, peacefulness, space make up for this.

We had a wonderful time in this villa! The house is perfect: it is big, well decorated, well equipped, it has everything you need. Victoria and the house staff are so kind and helped us with all we needed. This is truly the best house we stayed. Hope to come back!!

We had an amazing time enjoyed every moment the only thing I can say is you need more screens on the doors and windows as you need to keep them opened and there are quite a few mosquitos the house could also use some air conditioning as the first few days was very hot But didn’t dampen our time

We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful well equipped villa in which everything had been thought of. Fantastic views, lovely beaches, amazing local weekend market and close enough to Lisbon and Sintra for day trips. Plenty to do for children with table tennis, pool, trampoline at the house. Lovely welcome basket and toiletries in bathrooms all lead to a very relaxing break.

Samudra Villa is located in a special microclimate in Sintra National Park. The weather is about 10-15 degrees cooler there than at the seashore or in Lisbon. It also tends to be overcast or misty during the earlier part of the day, but by afternoon the sun comes out. The day stays sunny until around 8pm. We very much liked the villa's location. It was a short drive to Sintra and Cascais and about 40 minutes from Lisbon. It was also convenient to various points north (e.g. Obidos, Batalha) and south (Evora). We had a wonderful time at the villa. Victoria, the owner, has thought of just about everything to make her guests feel welcome and at home, including terrycloth bathrobes in each bedroom, and high-end soaps in the bathroom. In the kitchen, she has every machine you might want to use, including 3 coffee makers. In the master bedroom there's a docking port for an iPhone. There are lots of toys and puzzles for children of all ages, DVDs for adults and kids, and a number of current magazines and books. The house is kept immaculate and was cleaned three times in the two weeks we were there. Our only complaint is that the pool wasn't warm enough for our grandchildren and we had to pay extra for an increase in temperature. From previous experience in other vacation homes in Europe, I know this charge is common but it's a hefty one, nonetheless. Roberto, the manager, couldn't have been nicer. He went out of his way to make us feel comfortable: showing us how to use the various machines, coming by promptly when we had a problem (for example, the connection on a hairdryer was loose, a lightbulb went out, finding us rides to the airport). He even accompanied me to the supermarket the day we arrived. Victoria also went out of her way to help us by arranging a medical appointment when a family member became quite ill. This happened before we had even arrived at the villa. She was on top of the situation and we will always be grateful for her help. Francesca

Great location. Fantastic nearby restaurants along the coast for fresh seafood. Quiet area, very clean and spacious well kept villa.

We have spent our family holidays for 1 week in the beautiful villa. It is lovely designed, has enormous space and is fully equipped. It is a perfect place to relax and have great time with family or friends. The saltwater pool is well tempered and offers you an alltime option to refresh in the portuguese sun. You will find a lot of toys, games and sports like tabletennis. There is also an additional fridge to keep all your beverages cool. Expecially the view from the pool or terrasse to the deepblue sea is just a dream. The host Victoria is a very kind person and helps you quick in every situation. We can absolutely recommand the villa to all sunset lovers and anbody else. Cheers Rapha
