About Us



Villa dos Poetas, located in the oldest part of Sintra, whose slope began to be inhabited by the Arabs in the 8th century and which extends from the Castle to the Volta do Duche, has all the necessary conditions to feel the magic and historical environment of Sintra, considered by Lord Byron as "Cintra, perhaps the most beautiful in the whole world".

Recovered with absolute respect for its origins and surroundings, it integrates its historical legacy and modern technologies that ensure the comfort of its guests.

Since time immemorial, poets, kings, nobility and various artists have lived in Sintra. Classified by UNESCO as World Heritage, it has, among other points of interest, the Moorish Castle, original inhabitants of the town, Pena Palace, built by a King of Bavarian origin, Quinta da Regaleira, a unique monument to Freemasonry, and the Capuchins Convent, protected by the leafy Sintra Mountains. Virgílio Ferreira sums up this landscape and cultural wealth, saying that "Sintra is the only place in the country where history became a garden".



In addition to 3 apartments and six fully equipped Suites including private bathroom, A/c and cable TV, reading and living and dining areas, Villa dos Poetas offers a large garden, full of nooks and crannies that invite guests to feel the magic of Sintra. It has a relaxation area with a family swimming pool surrounded by several secular trees, which in themselves testify the history, culture and nature of this unique Villa. It is also possible to identify in its garden several symbols of the cultures that built Sintra over the centuries.



Villa dos Poetas is located 900 meters from Volta do Duche and 15 minutes walking distance from the historical center of Sintra Village, and has a private parking lot with absolute safety conditions.
