About this villa rental
Sturdy walls, stone floors and vaulted ceilings evoke the atmosphere and history of this former monastic retreat. Lovingly restored over the past 20 years, the owners have ensured that the Quinta is maintained to the highest standards of comfort while preserving its historic character. The Quinta is nestled in the hills of Sintra, adjacent to the Monserrate Botanical Gardens. It is reached via a narrow, winding off-road track leading to only a handful of Quintas, ensuring peace, privacy, and seclusion. Guests will need their own transport to reach the restaurants and attractions of Sintra.
Having spent much of their lives collecting antiques in the Far East, the owners have given the Quinta a unique charm by blending traditional Portuguese antiques with European paintings and Asian ceramics, creating interiors that perfectly complement the property's beautiful and exotic surroundings.

Property was clean, location was more remote than anticipated but the weather was fantastic and we really enjoyed being at the property. Communication was somewhat of a barrier with the onsite housekeeper but we managed through the translate app on our phones.

Our family of nine, three generations, had the most wonderful, satisfying, and close two weeks. The Quinta is indescribably lovely. Anna, the house manager, was always in touch, kept the huge home pristine, and laundered and tidied the whole house, from bedrooms to kitchen to patios. The infinity pool was the focus of our grandchildren, and Lisbon, Cascais, and Big Beach compelled our grown children. All in all, the finest rental experience we have ever had. Thank you Anna, Diego, and all of Sintra.

We loved how private and beautiful the property is! We loved having dinners outside with our 2 families and watching the sun set.
We also speedier having plenty of room to spread out.

Tucked in the Sintra hills, this quinta is perfect for those who want a quiet getaway close to Sintra and especially those who like to hike around the area. Ana and Diogo were great hosts and chefs. Highly recommend at least one dinner at the Quinta by them! Thank you.
