Apartment in Carcavelos, near the beach, Lisbon and Cascais
Our two-bedroom, two-bath apartment is located in a quiet Portuguese neighborhood, a ten-minute walk from the train station and a twenty-minute walk from the beach.
Each bedroom has a queen-sized bed. One bedroom has a stationary bicycle if you feel you need an extra bit of exercise and there are two televisions (one in a bedroom and one in the living room).
The apartment includes a small office with two desk areas, a nicely appointed dining area and living room space.
The kitchen is fully equipped if you prefer to cook rather than take advantage of the many local restaurants. The local grocery store is around the corner and a large grocery store is a block away.
The apartment is more suited for adults; however, well-behaved children are welcome.
