I cannot say enough good things about Paulo and this villa. Paulo went out of his way to welcome us, answered all of our questions, and organised for a delivery of groceries to the villa to coincide with our arrival. We were two families of 5 and fitted into the villa easily. The house is extremely well equipped and we were really comfortable. The pool and spa are fab. We had to watch out for our youngest (18 months) around the main staircase, which is quite steep, and a small area of the pool terrace (on a difficult-to-get-to bit) where there is a drop down to lawn below, but this wasn't a big issue. We were impressed with the baby and child kit supplied - mini table and chairs, high chair, walker, cot etc - all in great condition. The villa location is excellent too - 10 minutes to the beaches and fish shacks of Ericeira, 10 minutes to the palace at Mafra, 30 minutes to Sintra, 45 minutes to the centre of Lisbon This is a wonderful villa - we'll be back!
