Our stay could not have been better! The house was very nice. The host was kind and would get back to me promptly when I had questions. We were pleased to find water, sodas, pastries and wine to start us off on a memorable stay. The location was perfect, just a short walk into town. Everything was beautiful! !!
Impossible to say how much we enjoyed our stay. We were there for a month and immediately felt right at home. If you're considering it's, just stay here. You won't regret it.
Great location. 15-20 min walk to the beach. Beautiful beaches!! Easy train ride into Lisbon and back. Amazing restaurants. House was excellent for two couples; beds comfortable, lots of room, nice patio area for the evenings and early mornings. Great spot. Excellent communication with owner. Provided lots of help.
The owner was readily accessible prior to arrival and during our stay. He has a most pleasant, helpful manner.
On our arrival the property was imaculately clean and well equipped. The property is well situated for access to the bustling town centre and excellent beaches mainly on a well maintained path along a valley. This walk takes about 15 mintes ( My age is 83 ). Al in all avery good holiday!!
The entire process, from booking, check in, to check out, couldn't have been any easier. Mauricio was in touch throughout, answering my questions, giving tips, and even sending a great list of emergency #'s, locations, and restaurants in Cascais. I really loved the ease of entering and exiting the house by KEVO app. The location was near a wonderful market where we bought a few staples...wine, cheese, awesome breads, fresh orange juice and fruit for the house upon check-in. We loved the back patio - flowers were blooming and it was lovely to sit with a glass of wine and charcuterie tray and enjoy the nice April evenings. Our stay was the best and when we go back to Cascais, will definitely stay at Casa dos Sonhos. Thank you, Mauricio!!
We stayed here for 3 nights during our trip to Portugal and it was a great spot. All 3 bedroom are upstairs which was great so our young kids could be close. Our family of 5 was very comfortable here.
There is a grocery store that is about a 3 minute walk and after grabbing a few things, we were able to cook several meals in the well stocked kitchen. There is also a nice private courtyard out back where you could sit and enjoy a cool evening or cup of coffee in the morning. We were there in January and it was a little too cold for that but in the spring and summer it would be great.
The check-in process was very smooth, with Mauricio sending a virtual key to my phone via a particular app that allowed us quick access when we arrived. He also sent a guide to the area with recommendations on food, shopping, rental cars, and so much more. Also, it was definitely a pleasant surprise to have wifi that was as fast as advertised. In our experience "high speed internet" doesn't mean the same thing in some places as it does where we're from, but 500 mb/s was great.
Thanks again Mauricio for a great stay.
The property was perfect for us in facilities and location. The only thing we would say is maybe itâs getting ready for a little internal redecoration. But maybe thatâs just us. It certainly wouldnât stop us booking Casa dos Sonhos again if we were to return to Cascais. Mauricio was an excellent host. Communication was great and when we informed him of a problem with the safety gate he was round the same evening with a brand new one.
Excellent property. very well located and well equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay.
Set in a peaceful residential area with shops and restaurants close by., also a five minute walk to a large supermarket.
Mauricio the host was very attentive from first enquiries and all through the booking process. We would gladly return.
Mauricio zijn huis is goed ingericht. Er is voldoende plaats en het nodige materiaal is aanwezig. Het huis ligt vrij ver van het strand en het centrum. Te voet met kinderen is het snel een half uur wandelen en het gaat soms stevig bergop.
Mauricio is bereikbaar via whatsapp, maar we hebben hem nooit gezien.
Het huis was net, maar we ontdekten al snel dat er veel mieren in het huis waren. We hebben dit gemeld aan Mauricio. Zijn antwoord was dat de poetsvrouw niets gezegd had van mieren. We hebben toen zelf een spuitbuis in de supermarkt in de buurt op eigen kosten moeten kopen om de mieren te bestrijden.
Tijdens het afwassen was er barst in een wijnglas en hebben dit onmiddellijk gemeld aan Mauricio. Hij rekent dit aan, dus wees heel voorzichtig.
Een goeie raad die ik nieuwe gasten wil geven is dat jullie bij aankomst het volledige huis van Mauricio testen. En als er bepaalde zaken niet goed werken dit zeker te fotograferen of te filmen. Wij hebben dit jammergenoeg niet gedaan. We hebben na een tijdje geconstateerd dat het toilet boven niet goed werkte. Aangezien er een goed werkend toilet beneden was, hebben we dit niet gemeld aan Mauricio. Wat we dus beter wel hadden gedaan, want de dag na onze thuiskomst kreeg ik zonder melding van Mauricio een bericht via VRBO met een bericht om extra te betalen voor het toilet boven. We werden er van beschuldigd dat het toilet volledig verstopt was omdat we doekjes in het toilet hadden gegooid. We gebruiken nooit doekjes en hebben alleen het toiletpapier gebruikt die Mauricio voorzien had in zijn huis. Omdat de toilet niet goed werkte van in het begin hebben we die toilet zelden gebruikt.
We hebben altijd met heel veel zorg het huis van Mauricio gebruikt. De kussens van buiten binnen gelegd wanneer regen voorspeld werd, onmiddellijk gemeld dat we een glas gebroken hadden, alles netjes achtergelaten. En dan is het heel zuur om beschuldigd te worden van iets wat we niet gedaan hebben en hiervoor te moeten betalen.
Het huis is goed ingericht, maar Mauricio is dus niet betrouwbaar.
Es una casa tĂpicamente portuguesa, muy cuidada y limpia. Hemos disfrutado mucho del patio exterior, y el wifi y la TV con netflix. La cocina muy bien equipada y Mauricio hasta nos puso una batidora para nuestros gazpachos y smoothies. Siempre disponible en wassap para cualquier duda. El supermercado Lidl a 5 mn andando y 15 mn a pie al centro de Cascais, un paseo muy agradable. Por poner un pero, con lavavajillas serĂa perfecta. Muy recomendable relaciĂłn calidad/ precio. Volveremos!
This house, a lovely mix of traditional and modern, proved a comfortable base for our two weeks in Cascais. The two of us especially enjoyed its outdoor space, its English TV channels and reliable wifi, its two bathrooms and its well-equipped, bright kitchen.
An excellently presented property supported by a very attentive owner. Close to a supermarket and a good transport system. Able to travel to all the places of interest.
La casa es grande, y estĂĄ muy bien comunicada para poder visitar desde allĂ las principales atracciones que ofrece Lisboa estando en un lugar tranquilo. Todo muy limpio y nuevo, Mauricio muy atento. Por poner un pero, los barrotes de las escaleras son muy anchos, nostros Ăbamos con una niña pequeña y habĂa cierto riesgo. Por lo demĂĄs todo me pareciĂł muy bien. Gracias,
This property is very comfortable, cosy, clean and has all the amenities you could want.
Excellent location.
Mauricio is an excellent host, always in communication with you to see if you need anything.
We definitely recommend this perfect property.
We stayed at Casa dos Sonhos from 22nd â 31st Dec 2018. We are a family of five, mum, dad and three grown up children from the UK. The property is very comfortable with enough rooms for all of us to have our space. We travelled to Cascais to celebrate Christmas. We were welcomed to the most beautiful Christmas decorations at the property when we arrived.
The Casa dos Sonhos neighbourhood is very quiet within easy reach from the main train station. At night, Cascais lights up with plenty of eateries within walking distance to choose from.
This is our third time of staying at Casa dos Sonhos. We love staying at Casa dos Sonhos so much that we kept coming back. We consider Casa dos Sonhos a home away from home because of the comfort that it provides â it is always in an immaculate condition.
In terms of the accommodation, Casa dos Sonhos has all the essential facilities, toiletries, linens, plates, pans etc. The kitchen is well stocked as we were able to prepare our meals with ease.
There is excellent entertainment provided via the TV at Casa dos Sonhos. There is superfast speed internet and Netflix which provided a variety of channels and programs to choose from.
Staying at Casa dos Sonhos provided easy access to places of interest for sightseeing â it is only 45 mins by train from Lisbon. We were able to catch buses from bus stop that is 5 minutesâ walk from the property to Sintra where we visited museums.
Mauricio, is an excellent host that stayed in touch with us right from when we made our booking. In addition, he keep in contact with us from when we landed at the airport until we got into the house.
We also appreciate the care of Graca. She attended with exquisite delicious Portuguese treats on Christmas Eve. She also advised us on places to visit.
We will definitely recommend a stay at this accommodation

Amazing is the word i would use!
This truly felt like home! Them amenities were beautiful. Excellent location. Beautiful landscaping. Awesome showers! Lovely open kitchen. A wonderful patio to eat on . The beds were comfortable. Every thing was so spacious! It pretty much had everything you need from shampoo, conditioners, beach chairs to towels! We visited some of the spots that were left as suggestions ! Great suggestions! I bragged about this place on all of the tours we took! I would definitely recommend this property, and have!

Awesome
The beds were very comfortable too. The internet was very fast. We used the kitchen a lot to cook meals, and used the family room to watch some movies. Everyday, we would walk to the local grocery store and buy some fresh pastries. (only a 5 min walk). Downtown Cascais is very convenient to get to, which has lots of shops and restaurants to eat at. We went to the local beach which was great. They have a great walking path to enjoy the cool ocean breeze. One of the few times we did eat out, we went to a Sea Food restaurant called "Cervejaria Ramiro", in Lisbon. If you like seafood, this is a must. Had great communication with Mauricio. Overall, the stay was awesome.

Great house, excellent communication
The house is in a safe neighbourghood, at walking distance of a Lidl. You can easily catch a bus (like bus 417) to Cascais bus terminal and take a bus / train from there. By foot itâs 15 minutes to Cascais. The house is very well decorated, has excellent beds and has 2 airconditionings, in the 2 big bedrooms. Communication with Mauricio is great and easy. Behind the lidl there are some good restaurants, like O Mastro. I would definitely stay here again!
