The property was very clean. Great location for all the palaces and fantastic view. If you plan to eat in you will need to bring groceries with you as there is no grocery store in the old town, nearest one is opposite the town hall in Sintra. We loved staying at this apartment, so beautifully set out and we would definitely stay again if we were in that area.

A Perfect Gem
'Casa Christaine' is a wonderful apartment. We stayed for two weeks and felt totally relaxed staying in this character filled apartment. It was very clean, well maintained, comfortable beds, very nice style furnsihings, everything provided for for a perfect stay. Christaine was excellent to communicate with from the initial email and always very prompt and informative when replying. Burghard the caretaker was also excellent. He was always available if needed. The location of the apartment is fantastic. From the windows of the living room you can watch and listen to the many visitors to Sintra. Close the windows and it is so quiet and peaceful. We would highly recommend this apartment if visiting Sintra, however perhaps not suitable for young children or a person with mobility needs. There are two stairs to reach the apartment.
There are many beaches in the Sintra area. Our favourite one was Sao Laurenco near Ribamar. Local restaurants serve very good food and large shopping centers are within a short drive. Casa Christiane is very good apartment to use as a base to explore the Sintra area.

Our Trip to Portugal
We stayed here in Casa Christine and it was awesome, right in the heart of Sintra. Mr. Berghardt made sure we had all the necessary items we needed and was very knowlegeable and friendly. Philomena who will cook for you cooked us an unbelieveable meal.
The place was great, we want to go back.
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely apartment right in the middle of it all. There is a beautiful view of the palace from the apartment. The space was well equipped with everything that we needed. Please note that the apartment is up about 2.5 flights of stairs and there is not an elevator. The tourist office staff helped us carry our luggage up to the rental unit and provided good advice on transportation to the further sites.

About the host
Hosted by Christiane Stapf
My name is Christiane Stapf and I am from Tirol but living in Vienna. I am a teacher and I love Portugal. From beginning I spent my holidays always in Sintra. It is our second home.
Why they chose this property
The nice and charming penthouse has such a beautiful view out of the living and dining room. and even if there are many turists in Sintra you are up there in a good and quired place.
What makes this property unique
The penthouse is siutated in the historical center of Sintra and so you can visit all the nice places, castles and museums there by foot. also a trip to Lisbon is easy from there without car. But if you want to visit places like Tomar, Batalha or to the south etc. you can do this by a one day trip by car.
