Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Sintra

Bruno and Rita were wonderful hosts, very patient with us and helpful at every turn. The place itself is great - comfortable and a very short walk from the centre of town. The sunset views were stunning. Would definitely stay again.

Fabulous accommodations. Helpful that luggage could be checked into hotel ahead of time since we had 2 different tours booked with a guide and unit wasn’t available prior to 3pm. Very clean, loved having own en-suite bathrooms for each room. Would stay here again and again!

It was a pleasure staying at Ricardo’s place. The place is on the first floor of the house and has big lawns, fruit orchards and ample parking space. The view of low hills and sunrise from the balcony was beautiful. My daughter enjoyed the hammock in the balcony. Overall it was a very nice, peaceful and soul soothing stay in natural surroundings.

Authentic stay in the enchanting village of Sintra! Pedro’s place is just a few steps away from the hustle and bustle of the more populated streets which puts you right in the heart of things and allows you to sleep. The property has a very authentic Portuguese feel which we appreciated. We did use the pullout couch in the living room which makes for a tight squeeze, but totally worth it. Pedro was very communicative throughout the entire process. Thank you Pedro! Tip: If you go to Pena Palace/Morrish Castle, there are gentlemen at the bottom of the hill selling rides. We opted to walk and are SO GLAD we did. The hike through the Villa Sassetti is beautiful. We were not carrying anything, and it is a hike, so moderate physical ability is a good thing. There are free bathrooms along the way. My husband (55), my daughter (16) and I (49 with a “mom” body) got to the top in about 30 minutes. Drivers try to tell you it’s an hour - it’s not. Watch for pick pocketers outside castles!

The house is beautiful, clean and cosy with authentic touches to give a cottage like feeling. Eating breakfast in the peaceful patio was a highlight. There are great cafes and restaurants nearby and the beach less than 5 minutes drive. Everything you could wish for.

If you want a real local Sintra experience then this is your place. Charming house with a lot of character, charm and history. We were a group of 6 and cooked in for dinner 2 of the three nights. Very close to town center for walking. It’s a very hilly town so if you like walking it’s great for you. Maria could not have been nicer.

This Airbnb is the perfect place to stay when visiting Sintra. The hosts are sweet and welcoming; they were so accommodating with our schedule. We needed more towels and they brought them to us late at night. We needed to drop off our luggage before check-In and leave it there after check-out, to which they were more than happy to help. If you are staying here with more than 2 people, please be aware that the only shower is in the master bathroom. The shower is completely glass and there is only a thin curtain to separate it from the master bathroom. That didn't bother us at all, but it is something to note. Overall, incredible stay!

Casa do Forno at Quinta Velha is simply wonderful. It is beautiful and private, with fantastic views. Every morning for breakfast, we sat outside and looked up at the Moorish castle. The place was spotlessly, clean and beautifully furnished. It was a wonderful getaway from the crowds at Sintra. The bed was very comfortable and our host furnished everything we needed. Ines is a truly great host. She not only helped us with dinner reservations, but also told us all about the fascinating history of her property. It is one of the nicest Airbnbs that we have stayed at. I would definitely return if I come to Portugal again!

We spent a few days in Nathy's apartment, which has a magnificent view of the ocean. The accommodation is impeccable and very well decorated . Nathy welcomed us very well on arrival and gave us all the necessary information to allow us to have a good stay. And also, we had a basket filled with sweets, wine, bread and other goodies. I recommend this very well located and exceptional accommodation with this magnificent view of the sea and 5 minutes' walk to the beach.

Beautiful property, scenic views of the sea and sunset, fast wifi and Netflix. Sara was quick to respond to my questions and was very helpful. I recommend this place for those who love peaceful, quiet and relaxing surroundings.

This was such a lovely place to stay. The Airbnb was beautiful, clean and had anything and everything we could possibly need. João was super friendly and quick to respond. He had many great recommendations as well! The neighborhood was safe, peaceful and had everything in walking distance! We would love to come back again someday and will definitely recommend to friends and family.

What a fantastic stay in Sintra. The location is perfect to walk everywhere we wanted, including up to the palace and castle. It’s always nice to be close to everything that you can drop stuff off partway through the day at the apartment Host was very communicative and the place was clean, modern and as female travelers, very safe. The washer/dryer was a huge bonus as well. Loved our stay and would could back again!

We loved our stay in Susete’s place! The apartment was beautifully renovated and decorated. The shower was as amazing as it looks in the picture and the bed was very comfortable! I definitely recommend visiting Sintra and staying at Susete’s place!

Place is perfect, cozy space and all you need for a trip. Parking is limited and mainly available after 6 due to tours but in a great area with shops and some cute quick drink spots in the area.

This apartment is in the perfect place to see all the sites around Sintra. It has great views from three sides of the apartment. It is very close to everything in the historic district. It is also close to the trails to the Pena Palace and the Moorish Castle. My wife and I hiked the fairly steep paths to get to these places without any traffic. Be aware that there is a one way loop associated with this town, so you may have to go around the mountain to get out. Just something to keep in mind when you plan your trip back to Lisbon by car. Parking is limited, but we found a spot both times we needed it by showing up early or late (I would say before 9 or after 6). We went in late May. It does get busier as the summer progresses.

Excellent stay. The location was great - and the home was clean and spacious for all 5 of us (family, including 19mo old). The child-friendly toys and crib/high-chair were huge helps. The location was just around the corner from great shops and restaurants. And we hiked from the Airbnb to the top of the Pena Palace. We stayed for 2 nights, and I wish we had time to stay longer. Would highly recommend for groups that need 3 bedrooms in Sintra!

lovely apartment with a nice sunset view, perfect for a couple

The hosts couldnt have been more communicative! So helpful and clear and gave us lots of good recommendations. Grounds were lovely, as was the apartment. The actual neighborhood on the port side was ok, the other side was nicer. So nice to have the nespresso coffee pods and sugar for the mornings. 5 out of 5

Very large apartment and very easy to walk into the city centre. Little Noises at night but it’s in the centre so that’s easy to forgive. Great stay thank you.

From the moment we arrived, the host's warm welcome set the tone for a delightful stay. The apartment itself was impeccably clean and well-maintained, featuring comfortable beds and a fully equipped kitchen stocked with essentials like coffee, tea, and laundry supplies. Public transportation was easily accessible, with metro stops just a short walk away, making it easy to get around. Ana was great and so was her place!

The apartment is lovely, clean, well-equipped, and even more spacious than expected. The location is close to bustling neighborhoods, but the building itself is very peaceful and quiet. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at Lise's apartment. It was even more spacious than expected for a city apartment and was even better than described. The bedrooms and bathrooms were big with high ceilings. The location was tremendous. Great restaurants and shops just minutes away. I would absolutely consider staying here again when I return to Lisbon.

We loved the house and location. Super available host.

This is a lovely well equipped 2 bed apartment in the Bairro do Rosario suburb of Cascais. Communication with the host was excellent and the garden and pool area are a real bonus. It is a 15 min walk to de Inferno and a good 35 min walk into the centre of Cascais. However there are bus stops close by to the apartment which have regular timetables. There are a number of lovely restaurants close by at Casa de Guia, and the Ophelia cafe on the next street is lovely for breakfast whilst the sacolinha bakery at the end of the street is excellent. The small supermarket at the end of the street is good for small amounts, the large Pingo Doce 5 mins walk away has a much larger selection. A very relaxing stay
