About Cynthia and John Monteiro

Currently, John and Cyndi are enjoying their home, traveling, reading, working out, cooking and entertaining.

Cynthia and John Monteiro purchased this apartment in 2000
Why Cynthia and John Monteiro chose Boston

Boston is a city filled with history and culture and features some of the most world renowed hospitals and institutions of higher learning. Our waterfront is busy and beautiful! Boston is often refered to as a 'walkable city' getting you to sites by either foot, train, trolley or subway. The cape and islands are either a short drive, ferry ride or bus ride away. One of our favorites is Martha's vineyard. Maine is an hour away and the outlets in either NH or MA are 45-60 minutes by car. A lot of our visitors like to tour Salem and check out the witch museum and harbor. For the children and adults the Children's Museum, Aquarium and Science Museums are a must!

What makes this apartment unique

You have the opportunity to purchase discount tickets to local area attractions. Just ask Cyndi! We also provide Charlie Cards for your first trip on the bus or train. Just replenish what you use for the next guest to get started.

Golf: We are about a 10 minute walk to the George Wright Golf Course. It was designed by Donald Ross in 1938 and is well maintained by the City. It was named Best Municipal Course in MA and 14th best in the US according to Golf Digest. In 2009 it was the MGA ameturer qualifying site.

Ski: The Blue Hill Mountains, the highest point in Boston not only offers great hiking trails but also skiing and snow boarding. It is a 15 minute drive to this wonderful area. When we don't have snow in the winter they make it. You can see some of the slopes from our home and see them making the snow.

Dear Cyndi and John,
Writing today a big "thank you" for letting us use your place.
Thank you for everything but a few things stood out for us.
-John thank you for lighting the fire for us.....it was very welcoming to come to a warm apartment.
-One thing I forgot to buy from the store was sugar. Thank you for ample supply in the kitchen.
-Charlie Cards were very useful.
-Thank you for organizing our tickets for the "Whale Watch" and "Duck Boats".

I have only one regret, that is would have loved to spend more time here!!! (Missed our opportunity to use the hot tub)
God bless you both.
With much Love,
Alex

John and Cyndi,

Thank you so much for the great hospitality! The accomodations were great, clean and comfortable. Easy access to everything-especially downtown Boston. Loved the Fenway seats along with the great artwork.

If you need anything when you're passing through New Haven give us a ring.

Thanks again.
