Villa Malveira – Surface area : 300m2 – 7500m2 gardens
Set in the privileged environment of Malveira da Serra, just outside the hip town of Cascais, Villa Malveira is a modern Portuguese country house and private holiday estate, designed with flair to meet the highest standards in comfort. With the spectacular Atlantic Ocean close by, this beautiful holiday estate has featured in home decoration magazines, for the trendy country chic style of its interiors, relaxed atmosphere of understated luxury, and the original design of the pool and the gardens.
The cosy living room flows onto the lush gardens via large french doors, which open onto a relaxed lounging area under a porch, boasting views of the beautiful countryside with the sea in the distance. This is the ideal setting for a night cap or al fresco meals, admiring the beautiful panorama. Next to the living room, is a formal dining room and the fully equipped kitchen, which has a separate breakfast area, and a guest toilet room.
The master suite is located on the first floor, and has a double bed, a separate living area and en-suite bathroom. This bedroom boasts sea views. The other three bedrooms are located on the ground floor: the first bedroom has a double bed, the second bedroom has two single beds that can be arranged as a double bed, and the third has four single beds, one of which is a pull-out bed. All four bedrooms have en-suite bathroom, and large custom cupboards, designed by a local artist to contribute to the country chic and rustic environment.
Outside, the vast lush gardens flourish in sloped terraces, facing the afternoon sunshine and the Atlantic Ocean. Walls and a pine forest secure the estate and ensure privacy to its guests. The pine forest area of the garden has a lovely children pay area. The centrefold is the large private swimming pool, which has the shape of an exotic lagoon, and an infinity edge. The swimming pool is next to a lounging area, the perfect sun trap.

Location
Perched on the foothills of Sintra’s UNESCO World National Park, Villa Malveira is located in Malveira da Serra, a quaint village between the declared World Heritage village of Sintra and the chic yet disarmingly charming town of Cascais. Regardless of its new modern edge, Cascais maintains the tradition of a fishing village where you can find beautiful shops, bars, restaurants and nightlife.
The house enjoys an exceptional location close to Lisbon and the wonderful beaches of the Estoril and Cascais coast. You’ll find the most well known one, Guincho beach where yearly windsurfing and surfing championships take place, and is only 4km from the villa. The extensive white sand expanses, the untouched dunes and the rocky and wild landscape of Guincho beach makes it a unique place to visit and enjoy. One of the largest casinos of Europe is located in nearby Estoril coast town, with its gaming rooms, bars, restaurants and evening shows.
Along the coast at 10 minutes away, you will find several seafood restaurants with magnificent sea views where you can taste the best fish and delight with the freshness of a daily catch. Many gourmet restaurants are found, a few with Michelin stars.
Golf players will find the 18-hole golf course of Penha Longa ten minutes car drive from the house and four others nearby in Estoril and Cascais area. Tennis, horse riding and sailing are also close by.
You will find plenty nightlife entertainment such as discos, bars, and restaurants a 10 minutes car distance from the house in Sintra, Cascais and Estoril and at a 20 minutes distance to Lisbon.
Villa Malveira is nestled above the pretty village of Malveira da Serra, with a range of shops and restaurants. The village retains its traditional charm as building is restricted, and has long been sought after due to the beauty of its setting, with the coast stretched out below, and the forest and mountain above.
Sintra, a world heritage site with its castle, palaces and gardens set in lush vegetation and enjoying ravishing views is a lovely 15 minute car drive across the mountain.
Locally, there is a huge choice of the latest films in original language with over twenty screens in four local cinema complexes reachable within 10 minutes, as are two attractive shopping centres. The summer brings international festivals; classical music and ballet in Sintra, jazz in Estoril and fireworks in Cascais.
Closer in the other direction is the coastal resort of Cascais, where you will find superb beaches, restaurants, night-life and shopping, as well as a charming old town with rewarding site-seeing. Regardless of it’s new modern edge, nearby Cascais maintains the tradition of a fishing village where you can find beautiful shops, bars, restaurants and nightlife.
Lisbon is half an hour away, and with easy access to the motorway system a number of other world class cultural and historic sites make an enjoyable day trip. Lisbon boasts world heritage sites, and a rich cultural, culinary and night life.
Beaches
Guincho beach, world renowned for its beauty and surfing, is 4km away. Many other sandy beaches are close by, each with its individual character. Less than half an hour’s drive North along the coast several beaches are well worth exploring, as are some excellent fish restaurants.
Golf
Six of Portugal’s best golf courses are within a 15 minute drive, offering new and surprising landscapes, along with first class services and facilities. Discounted green fees are available, please contact us. Portugal is a golfer’s paradise where it is possible to play almost every day of the year, with plenty to offer both beginners and advanced players.
Weather
Portugal is a year round destination. Hot and sunny in the summer, with a refreshing breeze off the sea; windier months are July and August; Spring and Autumn are mild, ideal for sightseeing. Rainy days can occur in winter, but it is rarely cold.
Getting there and around
Less than two hours flight from most European cities and seven hours from New York, the house can be reached by car or taxi from Lisbon Airport in 30-40 minutes.
Located in the protected national park of Cascais-Sintra, the property is only 4km from the motorway and so half an hour from Lisbon and its cultural attractions and night life. Taxis are available and cheap, and there is an efficient bus system from the village to Cascais and Sintra; but to get the best out of your holiday we advise car hire, as there is so much to see which is not accessible by public transport.

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Malveria. The villa is perfect for families and really spacious with all the comforts of a family home. The pool and garden area are beautiful and perfect for children. Joana our host was extremely friendly and helpful offering us lots of tips for the area. The Sol Domus Team was also efficient and friendly. Thanks for everything! Our stay in Villa Malveira was truly delightful The villa is amazing, charming, stylish, and comfortable. We have been there with five teenagers who have had the time of their life. Sufficient space for all of us children and adults. Great rooms and decoration. Extremely beautiful garden with swimming pool. Close to Guincho for surf, Lisbon and Sintra. No fault.Perfect support from Sol domus. We all want to live in Portugal!! Looking forward to return.

Looking forward to return. We had a great stay in the authentic villa. Greatest Asselt is the porch where you can sit both when it is too hot or too cold or rainy, you will have a wonderful view over the garden. No extreme luxury, but just great rooms and a well equipped kitchen. From the moment we were received by the owners with some snacks and a glass of wine we felt welcome and it has been our fantastic home for the week. We had several trips to Cascais and Lissabon, both nearby. But also the villa is in the middle of nature and close to the see. So lots to do, swimming, walking, cycling or go out for lunch or dinner. We can recommend the local restaurant down the street. The villa was recommended to us by some friends that had been before. We stayed with with our family to celebrate our sons 40th Birthday. The directions from the airport were excellent the welcome from the owners was lovely and ensured we knew how everything worked. The biggest surprise was the size of the villa, it was everything the website said, but turned out to be much much larger than the pictures. We had a fantastic week spending lots of time by the pool which our two little grandsons loved. The villa is very well equipped. We can't wait to return. Staying in Villa Malveira was a delight. We were a large, mixed family group and the house was large enough to give everyone the space they needed, while having great communal spaces too. It was stylish & practical. Our toddler very much enjoyed the available toys & trikes. The gardens were beautiful; spacious and well-tended. Although the lovely pool was still chilly, most of us went in. The location of the house was ideal; a quick drive to beaches and not too far from Lisbon. We would love to return. As a group of senior golfers, we stayed at Villa Malveira in late 2014 and it was, without doubt, one of our best holidays ever. WE were 8 adults and twins of 18 months - the villa was perfect for our needs, well equipped for children and very comfortable for adults. We loved the views, the spacious verandah, the swimming pool not too near the house for the toddlers and secluded for the sunbathers. Cascais, Sintra and nearby beaches were excellent, and recommendations for restaurants from the owners were perfect. Wir haben uns vom ersten Sehen und Betreten der Villa "zuhause" gefühlt und wenig in der spannenden Gegend unternommen, weil es viel zu schade war, das Paradies zu verlassen .
The house is spacious, well equipped and comfortable
The pool is lovely and the grounds are beautiful
Great location, within easy reach of beaches, local towns and Lisbon
Our hosts were amazing, welcoming and very responsive when we needed any assistance
Sol Domus was an efficient organisation to deal with
We will return
Ideally located just outside the small town of Malveira da Serra in the foothills of the Sintra-Cascais National Park, Villa Malveira enjoys a secluded, but secure position in its own extensive grounds with far reaching Southerly views to the sea.
The Villa is an absolute gem, elegant, spacious, superbly furnished, well equipped and spotlessly clean; as soon as you walk through the front door you feel at home.
Outside, the immaculate terraced gardens, full of exotic fruits and flowers, lead down to the large infinity swimming pool (not secure for young children) where, lounging on a sunbed, the only sounds are the singing of the birds and the whistling of a cooling breeze in the trees.
The owners are charming and live nearby and the booking agency, Sol Domus, are superb; always professional, highy efficient, knowledgeable, keen to help and a joy to work with, especially Pippa.
We cannot recommend the Villa, the owners and the Agency more highly and we cannot wait to return. Indeed, we have already booked the same week in 2015!!
A high spot was the wonderful Portuguese meal cooked for us by the owners one evening!
Villa Malveira ist ein herrlicher, sehr persönlich gehaltener und betreuter Ort - man fühlt sich tatsächlich mehr als "Freund des Hauses" als in einer gemieteten Ferienvilla .
Wir können diesen wunderbaren Ort nur auf´s Wärmste weiterempfehlen, was aber hoffentlich nicht zu einer Dauerbelegung führt. Denn WIR kommen auf jeden Fall wieder und möchten ja dann noch Platz finden !!
Ganz herzlichen Dank unseren Vermietern - das war ein Urlaub wie man ihn sich erträumt !!!!
