This was the second time we stayed at Colares and we plan on coming back again. The house is fantastic, the location outstanding and with the wonderful Ketan always ready to assist you with anything, we could not imagine a better place to spent our holiday with extended family.

Wonderful stay. We would most definitely recommend this property. Helpful and attentive owners and a fantastic location.

We are a group of 8 friends who stayed here to celebrate our 50th birthdays together. The property was extremely spacious so there was always somewhere to escape to of needed. Brilliantly equipped and super clean. We didn't have a hire car so the only downside was the 15 mins walk to the supermarket.

Weather was terrible - this apparently is not unusual for the area during summer months - a bit like the fog of San Francisco. We went to other locations - about 30 minute drive to get sun. House was good with a few minor issues like no clothes dryer which is essential for a large group. Some lovely touches- soft towels and plenty of them, nice food and wine when we arrived, mid week cleaning , robes.

Beautiful villa with amazing views. Great location, the beach and local shop only a 5-10 walk away. Only negative, there was no direct access to the pool from the back of the house and patio area, only access is via the front door. Overall, a wonderful family holiday villa.

4 couples, celebrated our 50th bday and reunion. We had a wonderful stay! Thank you!

For our 40th anniversary, we planned an extravagant overseas trip with our two daughters and their young families. Kids 5,3,2 and 1. We have traveled together the last 5 years and this was the very best. The home was perfect. Large, simple design, spacious rooms, easy to maintain and the pool has a safety door for the house. Still easy to access but no stress. The beach access was close but we were happy to have a car for moving little ones. House had all amenities and extras. Plenty of towels, and cleaning supplies. The sunsets and pool decks were sublime. We were thrilled the town was not overdeveloped but access to great take away and supermarket were easy. This was a perfect trip and the owners helped us at every turn with transportation connections. Sintra palace was minutes away and a day trip into Lisbon / Cascais was fun too. Thank you for a memorable 10 days. Highly recommend!

Great house and pool ( heated!) The view was fabulous. The little beach town had great waves for surfing and enough restaurants to satisfy everyone’s tastes. Nice location to launch to Sinatra and other sites. Spectacular host and property manager - will definitely be back!

very nice area, house very clean, beautiful sea view, as shown in the fotos, very spacy, friendly welcome, hope we will be back again

The house is located in a small charming village, just in front of ocean. Very comfortable house, and we were very welcomed by Ketan and all the amenities he left for us. The pool was heated so we could swim everyday. We highly recommend this place ! Just 40 minutes fromLisbon.

The house was bright and spacious. Great for our group of adults and children. The huge outside patio area was perfect for little kids. The pool was wonderful because Colares is cool and it was always warm. We could enjoy it anytime. The bedrooms were a good size and very comfortable. The kitchen could do with a bit more counter space but the dining and living area are spacious and lovely to spend time in. We had a wonderful time and the house was a perfect retreat.

From the moment I saw the pictures online, I knew this property was special. The owner Sofia was in constant communication after we booked and the property manager Ketan was a breeze to work with. When we arrived at the property we were amazed at the views of the ocean and the setting sun. As we dug deeper into the property we were absolutely pleased with the cleanliness and upkeep of the property. We visited the property with our two young children who loved the proximity of the beach and the large yard. Another great feature was good restaurants in the immediate vicinity. We loved Bar do Fundo which was right on the beach. There is also a Michelin starred restaurant about a 15-20 minute drive away. The beds were comfortable, there were snacks and drinks when we arrived, I could go on and on about how much we loved this place. My only regret is that we should have stayed longer and hopefully we will get the chance to in the future. This would be perfect for a week or even two!

Stellar house. Very accommodating and attentive host. We will definitely go back!

We stayed at this house for one week (6 adults and 3 hound children). We used all five rooms. The rooms are all beautiful and spotless. All bathrooms are clean and spacious. Each bedroom has its own A/C unit. The living room and kitchen do not but absolutely do not need one. All sliding doors open to the terrace and provides amazing breeze. The heated pool is fabulous and the location is great. The house has a view that never gets old - overlooking Praia Grande. The owner is so responsive and makes every request happen. She took great care to ensure that we had enough baby cots for our kids and we arrived with a gift awaiting the kids in their cots. From diapers to baby lotion and wine for the adults - she did it all. We loved our stay and will be back again! Thanks!

Fabulous property and location ....walking distance to beautiful beaches and stunning coastline hikes. easy to visit Sintra/Cascais, even Lisbon for (partial) day trips .. suits diverse range of interests and activities. Special thank you to the owners for thoughtful welcome touches!

Lovely house, fabulous views, great location near to a super surfing beach & excellent service both in the booking process and whilst at the house!
