Beautiful home away from home. The staff couldn’t do enough for you and the rooms were immaculately clean! Delicious continental breakfast and the pool was an added bonus after a busy day exploring the local towns. Fantastic location - only a few minutes walk away from the town centre but far enough away that you are out of the hustle and bustle of the bars and restaurants. Would give this property 6 out of 5 stars if I could!

It was one of my favorite places I’ve ever stayed. The historic home, the location, the parking, the pool (especially in August!), wonderful breakfast on the terrace, the old trees on the grounds. The hosts were amazing. So thoughtful and hospitable. It was nice to have a glass of wine one evening when we just wanted to relax instead of go out. Magical.

The staff is outstanding, very welcoming and always attentive! As it was a very important night for us the staff went out of their way to give us something special! Definitely recommend staying at this historic yet very comfortable place. Breakfast was also perfect!

The breakfast on the terrace was wonderful each morning. There was a wide selection of hot and cold options including eggs, croissants, fresh orange juice, fruit salad and organic yoghurts. Best of all Maria baked a wonderful cake (or the best macaroons ever!) that we could help ourselves to, in the morning or throughout the day. The surrounding gardens are beautiful with the bonus of a pool far nicer in fact than we had expected. All very well designed. We wanted to have a relaxing week and Chalet Ficahlo was a perfect choice for this. It was so good to be able to just take a book and read by the pool. Maria and Ana were such lovely, helpful and warm people- this makes a huge difference when choosing a hotel. It really felt as if we were staying in their house; which we were! The bedrooms were quiet and the bathroom we had was fabulous. High quality materials and one of the best showers I have experienced.

Nothing. Maybe having an espresso at breakfast but really that was not an issue. And I am sure if I'd asked for one it would've been possible..

We knew this property from exterior for many years. Having the opportunity to live inside even just for one single night was a kind of dream come truth. We booked for a special occasion and hosted a family dinner in the property dining room. The experience was amazing, the history of the property and the quality of the service to make this event wonderful was great! The breakfast had all we needed, and eggs and juice fresh on the minute. Maria told us about the amazing history of the family and Gabriela made our drinks and dinner feeling like at home. A great place to go with the tranquility of Cascais residence area to make a special occasion.

So peaceful, clean and fresh! The house also has a very interesting history.

Exceptional. Much higher than expepected.

Not being able to extendthe stay.

Very charming unique family owned bed and breakfast in a remodeled mansion. Location very close to beaches and parks of Cascais. Breakfast was lovely with eggs, fruit, breads, and meat. Staff (family) went out of their way to meet your needs.

It is definitely an older house with creaking floors and shudders. But that is not a dislike, it is part of the charm.

Chalet Ficalho is a gem of a place and we could not recommend it highly enough (although we would prefer not too many other people find out about it!). A beautiful and elegant building, restored and maintained to a high standard. Extremely comfortable and relaxing, our hosts could not have been more helpful, and all of the staff are fantastic (especially Hakim). The location, right in the centre of Cascais, was perfect - just a few minutes walk into the centre, without it being busy or noisy. We can't wait to visit again..

The property is absolutely beautiful with 19th century wood panelling and beautiful art work but what makes it most special is that it is a family home, and one that you are made to feel totally welcome in, like it is your own home. The breakfasts are delicious, with both continental, fresh fruit and egg options. The location is handy for the main sights of Cascais, and yet peaceful, and the rooms clean and comfy. The host booked a nice restaurant for us our first night and walked us to it, as we had to be there quickly. We were ill while staying at the hotel and our hosts did everything to help us, getting foods that would help, going to the pharmacy, and offering another room until our departure even after we’d checked out. I have never stayed anywhere so holistically lovely and I can not recommend it more highly.
