'The house, the garden, the spot and view are even far more beautiful in reality than in virtual reality' May, Guests from Holland.
'We came to explore the region with its plenthora of palaces, museums, monuments, beaches and castles. The villa was an ideal base from which to operate and a peaceful and tranquil setting to which to return to each evening.' June visitors from the U.K.

Lovely situation, village a little too quiet!

Review Submitted: August 15, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
4 of us for 2 weeks found plenty of room to spread out, and the site, views and sunsets were second to none. The "breeze" in the first week was more of a howling gale, which drove us indoors for much of the time which was a shame as the pool was then freezing and much too cold for us to use - not being heated it needs the sun constantly to make it bearable. Main drawbacks were that there is NO satellite/cable or CD player as advertised, and because of the breeze and heavy sea mist which was present more often than not, the whole house felt damp and cupboards were musty. Great shame as without this it would have been truly lovely. Also the local restaurant in the village was sadly really poor, (contrary to other reviews) meaning you have to drive everywhere for a meal. On the plus side, we did find good places to eat in Cascais and Setubal, and a fabulous michelin-starred restaurant at Guincho. Sintra is beautiful, but both it and Lisbon are not for the faint-hearted because of the parking problems! Roadworks everywhere tested out navigation skills, but when finished there will be some excellent links in the area.
In summary, if the weather is fair (as it was in our last 5 days) this is a great house, but you need to be prepared to find the micro-climate is not in your favour - and take your own amusements. We have started a small reading library, having been surprised to find no books, and left behind some of our copious collection without which we never travel. Hopefully subsequent visitors will add to this! The locality for those with a car provides plenty of cultural visits, but probably not much for the teenage age-group - younger children will love the beaches which are plentiful and clean.

A magical getaway--highly recommended

Review Submitted: August 1, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Our extended family--seven of us, ranging from 6 to 64 years of age--spent a wonderful week here in June 2009. The villa was even better than it's description. Lots of room to spread out, cool and airy, a pool for the kids, and nooks and crannies everywhere. The house was clean and comfortable. The grounds were incredible--fruit trees with ripe fruit, views of the ocean (with ocean breezes), and paths for exploring the surroundings. It was a short walk to the village where they have one of the best restaurants we ate in while in Portugal.

Amazing and Beatiful!!!

svaish Phoenix, AZ
Review Submitted: September 25, 2007 Date of Stay: May 2007
My wife and I stayed here for our 2 year anniversary and all that I can say is that this house far and away exceeded our expectations.

The location is second to none; you enjoy a nearly 270 degree view of the property, the greens, and the ocean from the deck (the house takes up the other 90 degrees). From the far end of the property you can almost see Cabo de Roca. From the front you see the beautiful trees, the immaculate landscaping, the gorgeous swimming pool, and the incredible greenery of Portugal leading to the ocean.

The house itself is tastefully decorated and has a great deal of space. There is also this terrific walking trail that we took to the beach but it is not for the faint of heart.

This was our first visit to Portugal, but not our last, we hope to come back and stay at this house again in the near future.

A few recommendations if you want to stay here are to have a car and to buy a ton of wine from the nearby mini grocery store. At 3-5 Euros a bottle, you will wish that you had purchased a crate of Portuguese wine for when you have returned to the US and are remembering your trip!

P.S. I have a bunch of pictures of the house and some video as well and am happy to share with whoever figures out how to contact me at yahoo.
