Guest Reviews
- John (8/5): Pleasant place to stay in an excellent location - Location was excellent Unresponsive staff to my messages about the TV not working and other issues
- Vera (10/5): Geschmackvolle Ausstattung, tolle Lage und eine jederzeit freundliche sowie unkomplizierte Kommunikation mit der Vermiet - Die geschmackvolle Ausstattung und die tolle Lage haben uns sehr gut gefallen. Auch die Kommunikation mit der Vermieterzentrale war ausgezeichnet – freundlich, unkompliziert und jederzeit zuverlässig.
- MASSIMO (7/5): The location was great and the condo was large. The stay was very nice! - The location is excellent and is very close to the old town of Cascais. It is also close to Cintra which can be accessed by bolt. It took me two today’s to contact management regarding an Ant issue in the unit. No one answers the phone number that is given to contact the manager. Although Sasha one of the managers did call me and assisted me once I was in contact with her. I also had a safe issue that she resolved.
- Elsa (10/5): Geweldig! - Het appartement was schoon, mooi, ruim, licht. Het was heerlijk! De locatie was top; om de hoek van het gezellige centrum maar toch rustig. We hebben er een fantastische tijd gehad. Nvt

- Meaghan (10/5): Would recommend - Loved the updated clean apartment. Felt very charming and had a lot of character. Location was absolutely incredible and we felt so close to everything yet somehow the apartment was still quiet. We booked for two adults and one kid but they only had bedding for one bed available and we had to find house keeping who was luckily onsite still to get more as it was very hard to get ahold of the hosts. The pullout bed mattress was so thin and hard I felt terrible for my daughter who had to sleep on it.
- Donagh (9/5): Modern apartment in an excellent location - The apartment was very comfortable, clean and modern and was situated in an excellent location close to the beaches, restaurants and bars. The shared balcony lacked privacy - a screen between the two apartments would fix this.
- Jeroen (4/5): - The location The house itself looks beautiful and has a lot of potential, but for the very high price we paid, we also expected good service and a comfortable experience — unfortunately, that was not the case.
One of the biggest issues was the ants in the house. As soon as food was left on the table, ants would immediately appear, which was especially unpleasant and stressful while staying with a small child.
We had also requested a baby crib months in advance, but upon arrival there was no crib available. Because our messages were not answered, we eventually had to buy one ourselves during the stay, which was very disappointing.
Communication from the host was extremely limited throughout the entire stay and issues were not properly addressed. In addition, the pillows smelled bad and did not feel fresh or clean. Another frustrating issue was the gate at the property, which jams badly and sometimes made it difficult to get into the property at all.
Overall, while the house looks great in the photos and at first glance, the lack of service, cleanliness, and maintenance did not match the premium price we paid.
- Michael (9/5): Lovely stay in a great location -
- Francesca (10/5): Just fantastic! - Perfect location, beautiful place Liked everything!
- Sue (7/5): Good stay in great location - Very good location, great size and little outside space. Good communication with Agent. Quite a bit of damp in living room and bedroom, plaster coming off the walls which made the place smell a bit damp. Light bulb missing in bathroom.
- Thomas (10/5): Incredible find!!! - Perfect location. Modern, spacious, and well-equipped apt. The only caveat is that the entrance is around the corner and not on Travessa da Palmeira.
- Danielle (9/5): Fantastisch en geweldig ingericht appartement! - Prachtig appartement met alles erop en eraan! Heerlijk bed, fijne douche, prachtig ingericht! Geheel volledige keuken, zelfs een wasmachine en een strijkbout! Superfijne locatie, overal dichtbij, in een rustig straatje. Alles beviel ons! Heerlijk huis. Ala we toch iets moeten zeggn: we misten een theedoek, maar geen punt ! We hebben genoten!

- Tony (9/5): Perfekt om man foredrar leilighet fremfor hotell! - Beliggenheten. Balkongen. Leiligheten hadde absolutt alt vi trengte for vårt opphold.
- Wolfram (9/5): -
- Swati (2/5): So unprofessional !! Very bad experience. - Location was good. Apartment 1 had a dirty leak in the ceiling, right above the bed accompanied with a damp smell.
Out of two days booking, Villa Sofia could provide us an alternate stay for only day one, and asked us to check out the second day.
The official contact person was unavailable for several hours. Even booking.com found it difficult to get in contact with them.
Despite agreeing to 50% refund on call, they refunded only partial amount of day2 and even charged the cleaning fee from us.
So unprofessional !! Disappointed.
- Maksym (1/5): We stay 10 min and left property - Location There’s mould everywhere in the room and there are cockroaches
- Andrushchenko (1/5): Погано - The room did not match the photos on Booking.com at all. There was visible mold, and we also encountered cockroaches — which is unacceptable. As a result, we were forced to leave and could not stay there.
- Annakaisa (7/5): Kätevä sijainti, moderni asunto, jotain korjattavaa - Sijainti lähellä rautatieasemaa ja keskuskatua. Ranta-aukio 5 minuutin kävelymatkan päässä. Asunto kuitenkin vaatisi pientä remonttia, ja vuodesohva oli todella kehno nukkua. Meitä oli kolme aikuista ja saimme alakerran yhden makuuhuoneen huoneiston. Nukuin vuodesohvalla, joka oli vino, epätasainen ja piti nitisevää ääntä aina kun liikahti. Vaikka olen vain 1,6m pitkä, oli vuodesohva minulle liian lyhyt nukkua mukavasti, joten yritin nukkua vinosti kulmasta kulmaan. Asunnossa oli hieman tunkkainen ilma, mutta ei paha Portugalin olosuhteisiin. Kylpyhuoneessa näimme yhden torakan.
Huoneistossa on modernit kodinkoneet, joita oli ilo käyttää. Suihkun toiminta vaati totuttelua, ja hanoista sai tulemaan vaarallisenkin kuumaa vettä. WC:n hanasta roiskui vettä juoksuputken seinänpuoleisesta liitoksesta. Sohva oli jo hieman tarhainen, mutta sen ymmärtää, ettei vaalea sohva kestä kauaa siistinä vuokrakäytössä. Seinissä oli parissa kohtaa maali kupruillut, ilmeisesti Portugalin rakennuksille tyypillistä kosteusongelmaa.
- Alena (9/5): - Sehr schön, sauber, gut ausgestattet es war kalt in der wohnung
- Domenique (10/5): Ein Ort den ich für immer in meinem Herzen tragen werde. - Die Lage, die Ausstattung und die Inneneinrichtung haben mir am besten gefallen. Eine Unterkunft an den ich gerne wieder zurück komme.
- Megan (10/5): Beautiful apartment, in a quiet but central area! - Outstanding location (in the heart of beautiful, bustling Cascais) but really quiet. Good for families - kitchen stocked well and a really good size travel cot (which our nearly 3 year old had loads of space in).
Easy check in and really easy check out - all made simple.
Key code entry felt safe and secure.
Such a nice touch to have rituals toiletries in the bathroom.
We would definitely book again and will return. Nothing!
- Timo (9/5): -
- RICK THOMAS (1/5): - Location is perfect. Location and building are great and have stayed multiple times. This time we had a problem with multiple cockroaches and a shower that you could not use because it flooded immediately. We notified management and zero was done. They just don't care anymore about the tenant experience.
- Caroline (9/5): Beautiful stay in Cascais - Location is perfect, so close to the centre, only a short walk to the restaurants etc. Beautiful spacious apartment with everything you could possibly need. Comfortable beds and lovely big bathrooms. Fully equipped kitchen. We had to wash towels as we only got one set per couple and we were there for 6 nights so needed to freshen up. Couch is lovely and big but not the most comfortable to sit on for long period of time and as we were there for Christmas we did veg out a bit on it.
No safety deposit box to put valuables
We would however stay here again.

- Karen (10/5): Would highly recommend to everyone visiting Cascais! Owner was communicative and prompt to respond! - It was perfectly located and we enjoyed all the Christmas festivities, lights and activities. So close to everything including the train and bus station, beach, main squares, centre of town, shops etc.
- Eduardo (5/5): Razoavel em função de problemas eletricos - O acesso foi facil Apesar da boa localização , o imovel apresentou problemas eletricos, e paarte do imovel permaneceu sem luz , mesmo deposi de 3 comunicações no fone formecido de contato.
O imovel tem bom aspecto , mas deixou a desejar a questão da energia que estava em curo circuito , com possibilidade de uma acidente maior
- Samantha (9/5): -
- Nikita (10/5): -
- Katherine (8/5): Purposeful and good for business meetings - Great location - loved the design and the private courtyard and front porch space. Did not feel lived in enough and needed to smell less like fresh paint - obviously very new so perhaps just needs some time.
- Dawid (10/5): Perfect place for a family stay in Cascais - Design, comfort, perfect location
- Ann-Sophie (9/5): A warm, luxurious apartment in an ideal location. An absolute delight to stay in. - We stayed 3 nights at Villa Sofia and had a truly wonderful experience. The apartment is furnished with so much care and attention to detail. You can really see the use of high-quality materials — beautiful wood veneers, marble floors and a warm, luxurious interior that immediately makes you feel at home.
Everything you need is there: a comfortable sofa to relax in, a modern and fully equipped kitchen, a calming bedroom with a great bed, and a spacious bathroom with a lovely rain shower that’s perfect for long showers. Accessing the building and the apartment is very easy with the access codes provided.
The location is also excellent. You’re right in the centre, with shops, the beach, restaurants and coffee bars all within walking distance. At the same time, it’s very quiet — hardly any noise at all. We really enjoyed our stay and even wished we could have stayed longer! To be completely honest, the ground-floor apartment does have some issues with humidity. There were visible moisture marks on the walls, and the humidity level stays a bit high unless you keep the windows open for ventilation. The bathroom could also be cleaned a bit more thoroughly, as there were some black spots between the tiles — nothing major, just a bit more deep cleaning needed.
Also good to know: you cannot park directly at the apartment. You need to use a public parking garage about 5 minutes away, so keep in mind there is an extra parking cost.
- Nicola (8/5): -
- Alexey (10/5): - Locatie, privacy, comfort
- Elaine (10/5): Relaxing chilled out 5 days in our favourite resort - Location was perfect and peaceful but above all the light airy interior was
As good as it gets and furnished in a very tasteful way great bed and all appliances and showers were well above the average + outdoor balcony was exceptional
We will rebook for sure A couple of lights needed bulbs and tv remote batteries need replaced
but that is being very picky
- Maria (10/5): -
- Teresa (10/5): Perfect amount of room and close walking to everything we needed while in Cascais. - This property was clean and spacious, and close to the city center. We had ample room in the bedrooms and living areas. So convenient to plenty of restaurants, shops and the beach. Very nice property for four of us to enjoy! Only negative, one shower was slow to drain but other than that it had everything we needed to enjoy and relax.
- Kirsty (8/5): -
- Hilery B (10/5): Beautiful well located apartment, just know what floor you will be staying on in advance - I love this apartment!!!! It was my second stay there, the location, the luxurious feel, and I love being in Cascais. My only issue was that I had to reserve a 2 bedroom unit because that was all that was available at the time, but had no idea it was on the third floor, with no elevator and no way for me to get my heavy suitcase upstairs as a solo female traveller, and it's a lot to stairs! I was able to stay on the first floor for 3 of my 4 nights, then they let me stay in Lisbon at another of their properties, which was nice, but the area and noise took away from the apartment. They did not price adjust for me, and I feel I should have been told the apartment was on the 3rd floor, during the reservation process. 3 rd floor, no elevator
- Agnieszka (10/5): Wspaniały! - Miejsce spełniło wszystkie nasze oczekiwania! Lokalizacja wspaniała - blisko dworca oraz większości restauracji. Sam apartament bardzo dobrze wyposażony oraz czyściutki. Wszystko było super! Nie ma takiej rzeczy :)
