Holidays to Cascais: from royalty to modern explorers

It's no surprise that this picturesque seaside city on the Estoril Coast – within easy reach of Lisbon – was once the holiday retreat of the Portuguese royal family. Cascais has many charms for the more discerning holidaymakers and is considered to be one of the most affluent parts of Portugal. The perfect coastal location means mesmerising blue seascapes, gorgeous beaches, a smart new marina and palatial waterside homes. However, it has so much more to offer than the magnificent coast, as Cascais is a cosmopolitan and interesting city, situated within the protected Sintra-Cascais Natural Park. This means you have large amounts of unspoiled countryside all around you when you book your holidays to Cascais.

Pousada de Cascais 5*

For many of the sophisticated tourists who return regularly, it is the coastal wonders that draw them back to Cascais. Guincho Beach, to the north, is not just a wonderful place to relax. It is popular with both surfers and windsurfers. The waves are so magnificent that it once hosted the World Surfing Championships. Your holiday to Cascais should also include a visit to Boca do Inferno, which is less intimidating than its translated name, which means "mouth to hell". This ocean-carved cave creates awe-inspiring sounds as the waves crash in. Or, you could visit the 19th-century Lighthouse Museu de Santa Marta.

Enticing range of culture, heritage and entertainment

If you fancy a break from the lovely Cascais beach and sea views, why not wander to see the old town's ancient castle ruins or browse around the fascinating museums. This includes the World Press Cartoon Museum, housing an internationally significant collection of graphic humour. Or visit the Paula Rego Museum to see the whimsical and ethnically significant work of one of Portugal's most respected artists. You also have a chance to browse the Condes de Castro Guimarães Museum, with its incredible collection of Indo-Portuguese artwork. If you prefer to remain outdoors as much as possible on your holiday to Cascais, then explore the Parque Marechal Carmona. This is a park of unparalleled splendour, with wide tree-lined walks, lakes, children's play areas and beautiful backdrops for picnics in the Portuguese sunshine. This is also where you will find the interesting Municipal Library of Children and on Saturdays the Cascais Biological Market of Cascais.

Leisurely days and relaxing evenings

Holidays to Cascais offer plenty of attractions to draw you away from the beach, including exploring its maze of winding alleys and lanes. Around every corner you will find friendly cafes, beautiful gardens and boutique shops. Or you could head straight for Frederico Arouca Street and its quirky stalls, or Casa da Guia which is a former 18th-century seafront mansion, converted into lovely shops and cafés. If exploring puts you in need of refreshment, then you will be spoilt for choice. It is particularly recommended that you visit the Luis de Camões Square with its wide choice of places to dine including excellent local seafood and the best of both Portuguese and Italian traditional cuisine. There are also bars and clubs to relax in or head down to the marina, to dance the night away in the clubs around there.

The holiday was value for money considering how much we paid. We only ate breakfast (included in price) at the hotel and found the choice, and quality, very good, especially the fresh fruit. Good free minibus service to the centre of Cascais or you can have a pleasant stroll along the cliff tops.

What a beautiful place. We stayed in Pousada de Cascais on a 5 day break, and the hotel was amazing. The room, food and service were all of a very high standard. It is a short train ride (30 minutes) to Lisbon, so it is perfectly situated for anyone wanting to do a day trip into the city. I would certainly recommend this holiday.

A magical site overlooking the bay of Cascais and Estoril. A beautiful setting in the citadel: clean, quiet and filled with sublime artistic works. A very warm welcome where everyone is always ready to help you. Close to the center of Cacais while being a little apart from the crowd: a great location.

The location of the hotel. It is within walking distance of everything important in Cascais yet isolated from the bustle possible. And especially the treatment of workers in the hotel; They are simply magnificent and extremely polite. The pools and the solarium are wonderful.

FANTASTIC HOTEL. 10 to the originality of its architecture, 10 to the location in the center of Cascais. Another 10 to the contemporary art decor in the hall, in the lounges and in the rooms. Be housed in a fortress of the XVII century converted into a Pousada, what would be a Parador in Spain, it is a real treat. Tranquility, more than adequate breakfast, and excellent service from all the staff that make this magnificent hotel. We spent 5 days in this hotel, 100% recommended. Will without any doubt.
