Wow wow wow! We absolutely loved this place. We had a cute little 1 bdrm apartment and it was so perfect. Beautifully decorated, peaceful, comfy. There was a full refrigerator and microwave so we were able to have our left overs from the awesome food we had while visiting Sintra. Christina was our main host at the office and she was WONDERFUL! So friendly and full of recommendations and helpful advice. She was there for anything/everything we needed. The hotel is a little off the beaten path, which was welcome as the city center is very crowded. This place is truly a gem.

Great staff and management were fantastic and very helpful. Free street parking was good. The facility is very modest at best. And far away from all the attractions.

We stayed in the ground level studio apartment. Cute space, pretty entrance, manicured courtyard, nice kitchen area. Wonderful restaurants within a short walk. Free parking lot across the street. We visited during an unusual heat spell. The AC tower was not suitable to keep the space comfortable. Could not open doors since they were ground level and did not have screens. Air circulation not adequate, felt stuffy.

Double check for air conditioning before booking!
The location was good for us, walkable to a wedding and other places to eat. If you don't like walking, you'll need Uber/Bolt to city center of Sintra and other major attractions. It's a 25 minute walk to city center and palace of pena is not walkable. Nice building, well kept. It was clean. But we searched specifically for air conditioning, which was our top criteria. We like to sleep at 69F (20.5C). When we arrived we found there was no air conditioning. It is the unforgivable sin. Very hard to sleep. Thankfully it was not hot the week we were there, but there were not enough windows to get good airflow, plus keeping windows open leads to a lot of street noise, especially on Saturday night with nearby bar.

Nuno is terrific and this place is a great choice if you want to stay in Sintra. It’s a kilometer hike to town, but free parking is accessible.

8/10 Very good

Our two bedroom apartment was decorated with nice old furniture but cramped. Breakfast at the dining room was great. Parking was easy as free community parking was just across the street. To get access to the main attractions at Sintra(Regaleira, National Palace), we needed to call Uber as the Villa is located at the skirt of the town. The Villa was nice but we do not think it deserve 4 stars considering the size and amenities of the room and the facilities.

Had a lovely stay for one night with my husband and parents. The property was beautiful and very well maintained. A pretty courtyard and convenient for Ubers to come and go. Staff was extremely accomodating and friendly. We got some good advice on how to see the city from Marco. Amazing breakfast! Would definitely stay again.

I liked almost everything about the property. Nunno, the manager, couldn't have been more helpful, making us breakfast in the morning, securing dinner reservations, and offering us tour suggestions which were helpful. The only negative was the festival of San Pedro that happened to coincide with our stay and was across the street. Ot was charming except for the loud music that ended sometime between midnight and 2 am.
