Beachfront vacation rentals in Santa Maria Maior

We had a great time here, peaceful and unique, with lovely hosts, we hope to come back. liaka the dog is super too!

We had such a great experience! The van has all you need for a little road trip, especially when you come only with hand luggage, but want a proper camping experience. Communication with Luis was super easy and fast. We totally recommend.

Excellent location for a visit to Lisbon without the hustle and bustle of the city. Within walking distance of train station (10 minutes), grocery store (5 minutes) and a few restaurants. Approximately a 20 minute train ride into Lisbon's Old Town. Very spacious apartment with parking although very limited at certain times of the day which seems common for the large complex.

We had not been to Estoril previously and did really enjoy the more local vibe in this area. Also a great beach for surf and a good walk to Carcavelos. The apartment was so nice and very clean, we were 3 friends staying and it felt right at home. We all slept very well and although both beach and train are near (good communications) it was super quiet at night and a calm cozy neighbourhood. Moritz and Francesca were more than helpful and responsive and also had good local recommendations. All of us could imagine staying here again - highly recommend! ✨

We were very pleased with the location of the place and the place itself. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful stay at Paula’s charming apartment in Cascais! The space was spotless, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen well-stocked, and we loved having a drink on the balcony in the evenings. The location is perfect — just a short walk to the beach, the marina, and plenty of great restaurants and cafés on your doorstep. Cascais is a lovely town, and this Airbnb made it even better. Our host was incredibly friendly and responsive, offering great local recommendations. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to relax by the coast while still being close to Lisbon. We'd definitely come back!

Mars perfect nest in Cascais Nestled in the heart of Cascais, where the sea whispers its timeless melody and history blends seamlessly with modern comfort, this enchanting Airbnb is a dream getaway. If you're searching for a place that balances central convenience with serene tranquility, look no further. This property exudes charm, and thanks to its superbe host, staying here feels less like a simple accommodation and more like a warm embrace from a dear friend. Stepping through the doors of this Airbnb is akin to crossing into an oasis of calm. Despite its prime location—just moments away from the vibrant streets of Cascais—the ambiance here is strikingly peaceful.

The place is very cute and the beach and how open and undeveloped the beach was is unlike anywhere else. We did three days of surf lessons from Caeser who is literally 100ft from the house down the beach and there is surfing right out your front door with board and wetsuit rentals.. The town itself is a little bleak and there wasn't much to do and we found if the weather was bad restaurants close very early (like 6pm) so just make sure to find out times if you are planning on eating out for dinner. Our family of four was in love (2 boys ages 7 and 10) but my in laws came too who are in their early 80s. I clearly wasn't thinking bc the walk to the house is through the sand and hard to navigate, my mother in law also couldn't get over the sand dune to go to the beach, and the stairs in the house are more like a ladder. so it's wonderful for able bodies but if you have someone with special needs it may not be suitable. but otherwise if you love surfing, beautiful sunsets book it!

We enjoyed our stay very much! The accommodation was very clean, functionally furnished, and offered all the standard amenities needed for a pleasant stay. The location was excellent, with a stunning view of the sea – truly a highlight. For surfers, a must 🤙 Our host Gonçalo was extremely courteous and always helpful, offering advice and assistance whenever needed. I can highly recommend this place without hesitation.

Santo Amaro de Oeiras is a pleasant surprise! Near Lisbon, a quiet beach, in the comfort of Katerina's apartment. Already ready to return!

My wife LOVED our stay here and we highly recommend it! Elena is an INCREDIBLE host. She welcomes you when you arrive and goes above and beyond to ensure you have a wonderful time. (She visited us during our stay to answer questions about the area and Portugal.) The apartment is clean and modern, and has everything you need. Plus, the ocean view is amazing and the on-site pool is great. The location is also incredibly convenient. It’s a one-minute walk to the Santa Amaro train station, so you don’t need a car to get around. We hopped on and off to visit Carcavelos and Cascais. It’s also just a few minutes to walk to the beach and access the ocean promenade. If you want green space, walk to Parque dos Poets. The restaurant at the municipal building is great, too. If you are interested in visiting this area, stay here! Elena is the best, and we’re now happy to call her a friend.

We had a lovely stay here, the apartment was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. August and Teresa were fantastic hosts making sure we were okay and gave us recommendations. The pool was a real bonus, especially on warm days and when the beaches were busy. It’s also in a great location for exploring the area, with easy access to both Lisbon and Cascais. Would happily recommend!

Great apartment in great location. Lots of space to sit and enjoy the sunshine and people watch. Really good to have a parking space although narrow entrance and exit. Really good sushi restaurant in the complex. We had a lovely stay.

we chose this beautiful house to spend a stay my wife and I with a friend, her son and daughter-in-law. Ideally located, the listing photos speak for themselves. The living room is very comfortable, the kitchen is perfectly equipped, nothing missing. The bbq is of very good quality. The pool is nice and the ocean and sunset views are simply breathtaking. You are greeted by the hosts who show you around the property and finally tell you, here you are, you are at home before leaving you. Lurdes and Luis are lovely. They come every three days at the end of the day to water the vegetation, take out the trash and maintain the pool. This is done very quickly and it is possible to exchange a lot of information with them. They speak French very well. The beaches within a ten minute drive are beautiful. We'll definitely be back.

You are one block away from one of the most incredible views that we saw while in Lisbon. The suite was just what we needed for our multi-generational family trip. Enough room to play and lots of spots to find a quiet space. We were close to the Metro and a few of the bigger monuments in Lisbon, while also far enough away to have a calm moment. The backyard pool was perfect for the hot days and long days when we just needed a little recoop.

We had a great stay at Patrick's villa. Communication was excellent; he responded quickly to any queries, even printing off Latin revision homework for our granddaughter and dropping it at the house, which she really appreciated. As a mixed generations group it worked perfectly as a house, with 2 suites downstairs and 2 upstairs, all with full bathrooms. At night shutters could be lowered automatically which gave added security when travelling with 2 little girls and also ensured a good night's sleep without early morning sun waking us. Air conditioning was good with individual controls The kitchen was well equipped, everything provided. The pool was lovely, a good size and pleasantly warm, although as a minor point softer sunbeds would be a bonus. We made full use of the table tennis and pool tables, as well as using the bbq which is at the rear of the garden. The beaches are vast, a very peaceful area without the commercialism of the Algarve. Thank you Patrick for your hospitality.

Great apartment proximity to Lisbon with everything you might need for your stay. Brilliant value for money and extremely comfortable but would suggest to have a car since ferry schedule is quite open on the weekends (ferry to Lisbon goes every few hours in w/e and much more often on weekends days). There is a nice modern Asian restaurant in front of the apartment (with delicious food) though they have loud electronic music playing until 11pm so bear in mind if you are sensitive to noise and going to sleep earlier. Would highly recommend if you want to stay a bit further from Lisbon in a quieter area 1 min from the water side.

Beautiful apartment in one of the best located buildings in Lisbon! View from the balcony was the highlight. Very professional hosts - highly recommend!

Very good stay for a couple and a baby. The accommodation is very functional, a beautiful bedroom, spacious bathroom, well-equipped kitchen, a small patio in the shade of the vine. Location close to the train for Lisbon city center and beaches. And Rui is welcoming and friendly

Amazing place and host, everything is the city was walkable and everyone around is so friendly Spacious apartment and very bright

Incredible on beach experience, really special place and accommodation

Wonderful location to explore Alfama. The space felt safe, clean, and well taken care of. Self sufficient check in and out which is nice. If you’re able bodied and can do stairs and inclines, it’s a great spot to call home base when sightseeing locally.

The location is unsurpassed! Very short walk to the beach, long promenade walks, shops and restaurants. We loved Cascais - stayed 12 days and never got tired of it! Furnishings and decorations are simple, and Gina provided everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable and the linens were lovely. We would definitely return!

If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Maria and Joana are hands down the best SUPERHOSTS!! From start to finish, they made our stay unforgettable—not just with their kindness and support, but with the incredible space they’ve created. The apartment itself is in the most perfect location. Just 20 minutes by cab to Lisbon’s city center, but honestly… you might not even want to leave the area! You’re literally right at the beach—with top rated surf schools, bike rentals, beach clubs, beautiful cafés, parks, party spots, and anything else you could want all on the same road. Whether you’re looking to relax or explore, everything is right there. And when we had a little hiccup with the key? Our hosts were there in a heartbeat to help us out, no stress at all. You can really feel how much they care about their guests. Every detail, every message, every interaction—top notch. Warm, responsive, and truly genuine. We’ll be back for sure ❤️ Massive THANK YOU ladi
