Charming Villa in Praia das Maçãs

We enjoyed our stay. Nice home in a nice area. Beach and town are walking distance making it very convenient.

This is a beautiful property with fabulous views of the ocean, and within walking distance to the best restaurants and beaches, we really loved our stay. The host was so gracious and welcoming, leaving us beautiful cheese, bread and wine for our arrival then made us a reservation (twice) at our favorite restaurant Buzio... best food and wonderful service! The house was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. There were comments from our friends regarding the beds and pillow quality in the secondary bedrooms (fairly hard beds) but ours was very comfortable. We loved our stay, thanks so much Maria and Helena...

Beautiful home, with wonderful hosts. We really appreciated the personal check-in experience (including meeting us weary travelers at 8am!). The home is comfortable, with plenty of space, dishes/cooking needs, extra blankets, etc. We enjoyed walking to town/beach and the short drive to Azenhas do Mar and Sintra (take an Uber to Sintra!). We would return in a heartbeat.

We had a truly lovely time at Maria home. The location was great for a family with three boys under 8 years old. The house was spacious clean and very relaxing. The view down to the sea was lovely to see every morning and evening. Perfect distance to visit Sintra and cascais. The town has loads of great restaurants and the beach is a great fun. Hope to make it back!

This home is a perfect gem to enjoy a true beach city prestigious experience! The house is spotless - the owner is truly a fabulous woman who greeted us with open arms and welcomed us with detail and care. The house is equipped with more than you need - cooking in the kitchen was a delight! Would recommend to anyone with a car who loves quiet luxury.

This is a beautiful home! Wonderful location, very clean and comfortable. The owner is so kind and helpful. The town and beach are a short walk away; you can see and hear the ocean from this amazing property. We will definitely be back next time we are in Portugal. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

We stayed in this lovely home during our time on the western coast of Portugal. Joana’s mother, Helena, greeted us, answered all our questions, gave great advice and then left us to settle in with complimentary bread, cheese, and wine! We really did not want for anything during our stay. The little village was a 5 minute walk with good restaurants and a little super Mercado, where they were very helpful and friendly. The yard was beautiful with all kinds of flowers in bloom and a nice place to sit and enjoy the ocean view, as well as a glass enclosed porch for sitting with a wonderful cross draft for the breeze. We would definitely stay here again! A lovely way to begin our vacation in Portugal!?

Great stay with our family! Wonderful house and location! Lovely hosts! Would highly recommend. Thank you!

We had a fabulous stay in Colares - the property is perfect. The hosts were wonderful. We enjoyed daily walks to breakfast and to the beach. There are great restaurants nearby and it's a short drive to Sintra and all of its attractions. Would love to come back! Thank you for a wonderful stay!:)

We had a wonderful time at Joana's house. It was spotless, comfortable, cozy, and the view was spectacular! The pool is lovely although we did not get to enjoy it much since the weather was a bit chilly. We cooked in a couple of nights and the kitchen had everything we needed. Joana's mom greeted us upon arrival and could not have been nicer. She even left us some cheese, wine, chocolates, and a selection of fruits which was most appreciated since we were tired and hungry. The location was perfect, very close to Sintra, Lisbon, and little coastal towns nearby. We loved that we could just walk into Praia de Macas which had everything we needed; restaurants, coffee shops, beach, and little store. I would absolutely stay at Joana's house again and highly recommend it to anyone else.
