Vacation rentals with a pool in São Domingos de Rana

We consider this house to be on another level when it comes to the traditional Airbnb. You are essentially living in a private part of a palatial mountainside with amazing views of the forest , coastline and sunsets. The house is an ancient hermitage that is supremely well kept and the owners’ sophistication shines through. The gardens and terraces are absolutely beautiful and a joy to walk around with ponds, fountains and lovely forest pathways. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything you need to make delicious meals. Beds are very comfortable and Mariana, the housekeeper, keeps the house spotless and the grounds are very well kept by the gardener. Cristina who owns the property is the most generous host who greeted us with a delicious homemade quiche and other provisions so we did not have to go shopping upon our arrival which was fantastic after a long journey. When visiting Sinatra, this home is such a privilege and will only enhance your stay!

Wir waren mit Freunden da und das Haus war perfekt dafür geeignet. Der große Essbereich, die vielen Schlafzimmer und der einmalige Pool mit Blick bis zum Meer haben uns überzeugt. Für besondere Anlässe kann man seit neuestem eine Art Wintergarten dazu mieten, der riesig ist und zum Verweilen im Garten einlädt, auch bei niedrigeren Temperaturen. Die Zufahrt mit einem Camper ist etwas eng, sobald es Gegenverkehr gibt. Wir waren zunächst auch etwas verunsichert, weil es ein Durchfahrts-Verboten Schild für Wohnmobilen gibt. António hat uns dann abgeholt und uns alles gezeigt. Er war jederzeit für Fragen erreichbar und wir durften unseren Camper mit Strom und Wasser befüllen.

Amazing place, the view is so incredible, we spent a really great time at the villa, it is peaceful, beautiful and private! If I come back to Portugal I would definitely want to come back! Thank you again for everything!

A great house with all that you need and very quiet location. Colares is an ideal location and easy for beaches/Sintra/Cascais and only 45 mins from Lisbon. Lee and Sabina very helpful/responsive.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay here. The house is stunningly designed. We especially loved the huge windows with stunning views of the garden. The towels and bed sheets were of amazing quality, the kitchen was fully equipped, the TV projector was amazing and the fact that the garden is so huge you that can go for a walk in it is mindblowing! And even though the weather wasn't sunny, the low clouds added a cozy atmosphere that made our stay feel even more special. Dinis was always responsive and available to answer any questions. The only thing was that while the listing mentioned parking on premises, it wasn’t available for us during our stay. This led us to park on the narrow, bumpy street outside. However, this was a minor inconvenience, and it didn’t take away from how much we enjoyed our time here. We would absolutely come back and highly recommend this place!

Tout était génial, super hôte, je recommande !

Wir hatten eine wirklich tolle Zeit. Das Haus ist genau wie auf den Fotos und bietet alles was man Brauch. Die offene Küche und der kleine Pool mit den Hängematten im Hof waren das absolute Highlight. Wenn ich mir ein kleines Ferienhaus bauen würde, dann würde es genau so aussehen. 🫶🏼 François war ein toller Gastgeber, der uns sogar mit Wein und leckerem Käse begrüßt hat. Wir kommen gerne immer wieder.

This is the second time we have visited this lovely property and location. It is highly recommended - Carlos and team are amazing hosts - property is exactly as in pictures and the hosts are always on hand to help and reply to queries. Most importantly the property is private with a lovely little pool and outside area which we enjoyed. Finally the Beach is only 5 minutes away by car. What more could one want! 😁

Het appartement is compleet en erg schoon. Het zwembad is ook schoon. Alleen jammer dat er geen ligstoelen aanwezig zijn. Wel een ligplaats in het gras. Voor een verblijf voor een stadsreis is het zeker een aanrader. Op loopafstand van de wijk Belem en met de tram in 20 minuten in het centrum. Daar zal je beslist niet zo’n mooi appartement vinden. Ik zal het appartement iedereen aanraden.

Hello, I had a wonderful experience thanks to Gonçalo. From the moment I arrived, he was incredibly welcoming, helpful, and professional. Every detail was taken care of with care and thoughtfulness, which made my stay feel comfortable and stress-free. Gonçalo’s genuine hospitality and quick responsiveness made a big difference, and I truly appreciated how easy he made everything. It’s rare to come across someone so dedicated to providing a great experience. Thank you again—I would absolutely recommend this host to anyone! Pedro

Great stay! The host kindly allowed early check-in, which was a big help after a long flight with kids. The apartment was spacious, cozy, and well-equipped. We loved being within walking distance of shops and main attractions in Cascais. The road in front can be a bit noisy at night if the windows are open (especially for light sleepers). Note: there’s a €4/day per person tourist tax mentioned in the listing—just something to keep in mind as this can be overlooked. Thanks for a lovely stay!

The apartment is perfect for a visit to Lisbon in the summer. Having access to the pool after the long hilly walks makes it a great place to stay. The apartment was well located to walk for food/drink etc . It is up a hill but so is most of Lisbon. Apartment had everything we needed and Natacha was extremely helpful. Would definitely recommend.

To choose one specific word to describe this excellent apartment is understandably complicated but "homie" is the one that stands out. You feel that it is actually someone's home and the interior and equipment corresponds to that. Also the hosts are really helpful even from distance and you cannot end this review without mentioning the pool which is great for children and adults alike. Definitely recommendable and we certainly would visit again

João and Raquel were great hosts! The apartment was super nice and the checkin and checkout process was easy.

This was a great spot for a first visit to both Cascais & Portugal. Everything was walkable, but peaceful. Downtown Cascais (25 min walk) is pretty, but busy even in late May so (boring that I am) I was glad to be farther away. The winner was the green view from the balcony every morning with coffee. The swing chair was a big hit with the teenage kids. The other winner is the ocean side walk nearby...straight to Cascais or minutes to Giua cafes & restaurants which offer some extraordinary outdoor eating venues ($$). Also Cafe Ophelia nearby was sweet. The green space out back & the pool will no doubt work well for younger kids. Maria was a very friendly & engaged host. Tip: Lidl grocery store is an easy 8 min walk & carries a surprising array of good quality, cheap fresh baked breads & sweet pastries.

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

Hemos pasado unos días geniales con amigos y niños en casa de Laura. La casa está en un entorno maravilloso lleno de vegetación, los exteriores son preciosos. La casa es como se ve en las fotos, tiene todo lo necesario para pasar unos días perfectos. Es preciosa y muy espaciosa. Nosotros íbamos con 2 bebés y nos dejaron cuna y trona. Nos permitieron hacer el check out un poco más tarde sin problema. Muy recomendable.

Bernardo and Maria's place was a perfect getaway for ours girls trip. It was peaceful and spacious and we could get into the centre of Lisbon easily with Ubers. The pool was amazing and was a big highlight of our stay! Great sized rooms and bathrooms, lovely patio, really suitable for a group holiday, would highly recommend!

Die Vermieter Teresa und Rui sind ausserordentlich freundlich, zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit. Das Haus ist sehr gepflegt, gemütlich und nahe aller Sehenswürdigkeiten. Es war sogar eine Grundausstattung an Lebensmitteln vorhanden inklusive Brot, Obst und Pastel de Nata. Wir haben die Zeit und den Luxus sehr genossen und können es nur empfehlen. Vielen herzlichen Dank liebe Teresa und Rui, Flavia und Ingo

We had a fabulous time at José's place. He was there with a warm welcome when we arrived, showed us around and explained everything. He was extremely responsive when we sent messages and had questions. Nothing was too much trouble for him to ensure we were happy and had a great time. The house is a quaint little house from the 1930s that has been renovated to bring in modern comforts, but still retaining charming details like the original floor. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed for all the cooking and BBQing we did. We really enjoyed our stay.

We had an incredible stay at Susan's property. The former caretakers house was immaculate. Super clean, super comfortable, and included wonderfol amenities. Susan was the perfect hostess and incredibly generous and caring to ensure we had a comfortable stay. We enjoyed the pool, walking through the fruit trees, and using the BBQ. The property is truly special and we are so grateful we had a chance to stay there and experience it.

This place was perfect for what we were looking for. We needed somewhere that could accommodate 9 of us, 6 adults and 3 children under 3. The house itself was beautiful, very tidy and had so much space. The hosts Ana and Nuno had thought of the children and provided us with cots, high chairs, children’s dinnerware, and even things for the children to play with. The swimming pool was gated off as described. The location felt really private and quiet, with beautiful views of the sea. We were able to walk down to the local shops and beach of Praia das Maçãs, so we didn’t need to hire a car. Ana was so friendly and helpful before and during our stay. We had such a lovely time here, and would love to come back one day.

Casa Laranja is a lovely house close to lively Cascais, not far from Lisbon. The accommodations were spacious and well maintained. The host was flexible allowing us to change the number in our party and provided early access to the house. The house is used as both an Airbnb and bed and breakfast. Consequently the kitchen has limited items found in a typical Airbnb such as spices and condiments and charges for laundry. On the other hand there are hotel type robes provided and daily housekeeping. We used the fantastic heated pool every day! Note - if you are allergic to cats the house may not be for you as there are two cats who make themselves at home on the outdoor patio.

Wir hatten wundervolle Flitterwochen in der kleinen Windmühle, für Pärchen absolut geeignet. Nach kurzer Panik, weil ich meinte, die Badezimmertür nicht mehr aufzubekommen (man muss beim Öffnen auch dagegendrücken), konnten wir den Sonnenuntergang vom Baumhaus aus absolut genießen :) Vor allem der Garten ist wirklich schön und verwunschen, ein bisschen wie im Märchen. Einzig der Poolbereich könnte noch etwas einladender gestaltet werden. Wir würden es auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen und wünschten, wir hätten dort noch mehr Zeit verbringen können, aber Lissabon wollte auch erkundet werden.
