Casa Costeira Portugal
Holiday Home Rental Description
Casa Costeira is a contemporary and spacious villa located in one of the prime holiday spots in the Lisbon region, Cascais. With a large private pool and excellent outdoor space, this villa provides everything guests need to switch off and enjoy a memorable holiday in the sun. With five-bedroom, this villa sleeps eleven, making it ideal for large groups of friends or families travelling together, as well as golf lovers, at just 500m from the Quinta da Marinha Golf Resort. As well as a fantastic private pool, this villa has outdoor space in the form of a lawned area and poolside terrace, where you will find a dining area and seating. You can position your lounge chair right in the sun to top up your tan or take advantage of the covered area for some shade. The outdoor dining facilities also provide the perfect setting for guests to prepare delicious al fresco meals on the barbecue and eat together on the lovely shaded terrace. Inside the house, the open plan living/dining room is spacious and light, with comfortable sofas and armchairs, as well as a fireplace and a flatscreen TV. This room is accessible directly from the terrace via patio doors, which allow daylight to stream in. Guests will also find the sleek and modern kitchen on the ground floor; featuring a small breakfast table, plenty of prep space and state-of-the-art appliances, this kitchen will suit everybody.
One of the five bedrooms is located on the ground floor; this room has a double bed an en suite bathroom. On the first floor, guests will find four further bedrooms, including three double rooms and a room with a bunk bed, perfect for the children. Each of the bedrooms offers stylish serenity and unadulterated comfort, ensuring that guests feel at home during their stay in the villa. The bathrooms are also a good size and finished to a very high standard. With its marina, beaches and eye-catching buildings, Cascais is an attractive town and lies just south of the stunning Sintra-Cascais Natural Park – a vast area of natural beauty which stretches all the way to the Atlantic. Other attractions nearby include the huge casino at Estoril, less than 6km from Villa Anselmo. The town of Sintra is well worth a visit too. You won’t want to miss the Moorish Castle and elaborate Monserrate Palace, just two of the highlights of this UNESCO World Heritage destination.Hugely popular with visitors, Cascais is slightly over half an hour’s drive from Lisbon, just outside the expansive Sintra-Cascais Natural Park which runs down Portugal’s most westerly fringe. Once a small fishing village, it’s now a major resort with the facilities to match, but it hasn’t lost its charm or a sense of its history – you can still see why it was the place to be for the Portuguese nobility of the 1800s. With none of the hilliness of the capital, a day spent in Cascais is an easy-going affair. One of its key attractions is the opulent Castro Guimares Museum, featuring artefacts of Portuguese history dating back many centuries. The museum sits in the pretty Jardim Marechal Carmona gardens, and its brightly coloured, decorative facade means you are unlikely to miss it. The golden sands of Praia Grande are less than a ten-minute drive away from Villa Sienna. The water here is shallow, making it especially ideal for children wanting to go for a swim. Due to the strong waves, it’s a favourite spot for surfing, and you can have a go at this and a range of other water sports. The Praia da Ribeira is just one of many fine beaches in the area and centrally located. The walk to the impressive Boca do Inferno cliffs is a popular one and scenic too, while the marina area provides another pleasant spot to while away some time with a drink or two.
Around 4km north of Cascais, Estoril is a sophisticated spot famed for both its motorsport racetrack and its centrepiece casino – said to have provided Ian Fleming with the inspiration for a certain James Bond, no less. It lacks the heritage of Cascais, but if you fancy a night at the roulette wheel, or a day at the steering wheel, it’s the place to go. Sintra, on the other hand, is not lacking in history and punches above its weight when it comes to intriguing architecture. From the romantic Palacio da Pena with its whimsical details to the arabesque Palacio de Monserrate and gothic Palacio Nacional, it’s worth arranging an organised tour to learn about these sights in more detail. You certainly won’t run out of things to see in a hurry – and if you need a break from it all, the wonderful Guincho beach or landmark Cabo da Roca provide excellent chill-out locations.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
