    Older house, so although newly renovated, you can hear those walking above!

    Maria and Ana were wonderful hosts. A great, private little slice of Cascais!

    Maria is a very friendly host very helpful and even gave us a recommendation for dinner away from the touristy area. Dinner also was excellent (Restaurant Pereira). We wish we had planned to stay longer. Breakfast was very good, typical Portuguése fare and eggs made to order. The beds and linens were excellent. Lovely place!

    Everything was perfect

    We were made to feel so welcome during the entire stay. The staff were friendly, helpful and went out of their way to make us feel at home. The hotel has been beautifully restored and you feel as if you are staying in a friend’s home. Breakfast is varied and special GF things were bought especially. The hotel is in an excellent position within easy reach of museums, the port , restaurants and the town.

    Unfortunately, the day we arrived the elevator had issues so I was unavailable for our use. Not a big deal since we were only on the second floor, also air conditioning did not work in any of the rooms, but again not a big deal because it was cool enough to open the windows And have fresh air.

    The staff, location and great breakfast werethe highlights. Beds were very comfortable, and the rooms were very clean and large. It was a large property, with a victorian type setting, and different rooms you could use to perhaps have a glass of wine at the end of the day.

    They had a couple of things that were not working properly. I am sure they will work to solve the problems.

    The grounds are beautiful. You are very close to the marina and downtown.

    Wonderful Chalet, in the centre of Cascais a beautiful seaside town just 40 minutes from Lisbon. We stayed for 3 nights and enjoyed reading in the study, lounging by the pool and inviting friends over to sit in the garden. Maria and the staff could not have been more attentive, we were really impressed at their local restaurant and activity recommendations as well as their 5* service. Parking was a bonus and breakfast was super tasty. We plan to be back, and so do the friends that visited us!

    Chalet Ficalho is a beautiful, old house set in a peaceful garden with a lovely swimming pool. Maria is a warm and generous host and nothing is too much trouble. The delicious breakfast on the terrace overlooking the garden was a real treat.

    The property is absolutely beautiful with 19th century wood panelling and beautiful art work but what makes it most special is that it is a family home, and one that you are made to feel totally welcome in, like it is your own home. The breakfasts are delicious, with both continental, fresh fruit and egg options. The location is handy for the main sights of Cascais, and yet peaceful, and the rooms clean and comfy. The host booked a nice restaurant for us our first night and walked us to it, as we had to be there quickly. We were ill while staying at the hotel and our hosts did everything to help us, getting foods that would help, going to the pharmacy, and offering another room until our departure even after we’d checked out. I have never stayed anywhere so holistically lovely and I can not recommend it more highly.

    This is a very unique property both in its environment and the ambiance created by the hosts. It achieves an elegant balance between the personal and the freedom to feel anonymous yet at home. This is not an easy thing. It truest a beautiful and luxurious experience from the rooms to the breakfast. You feel looked after and pampered. Run by such a lovely family. You genuinely feel like you are coming home each evening you return. Wonderful place. Will visit again.

    We stayed just a night but in a longer stay it would be nice to be able to have the tv connected to the guests network so that they can stream Netflix if they do not like to read a book.

    Great historical building and lovely hosts taking care of us. Definitely Premium level of hosting. The house is situated in a park like plot right next to the museum of Paula Rego by architect Souto de Moura. A very inspiring place to stay for people who appreciate art and heritage accompanied by all modern amenities. The breakfast was one of the best we had in an accommodation in Portugal. Thanks for the great time! We love this house and will be back if we are in the Cascais area again.

    We loved everything about this place!

    This place is beautifully, and recently, restored. The gardens are gorgeous, too. The location couldn't be better for walking into the heart of the old town and the shopping streets. You'll park inside the property gates so no hunting for street parking. Our bathroom was large and modern, and the bed/pillows were so comfortable. Breakfast was delicious!
