Leading competitor platforms
In our comparison, we mainly considered platforms that have a similar focus as Flatio and are also suitable for medium- or long-term stays. In particular, we analyzed data from Booking.com, Spotahome, Homelike and Uniplaces.
Vitor and the staff were great. They were kind and attentive to any issues we had. We really appreciated everything they did for us. The staff also did a really good job keeping the common areas clean. That is much appreciated as well. My only issue with the apartment is that there's a fair amount of traffic noise from the busy road. Fortunately, it was much quieter at night. There's not much the owner and staff can do about the traffic, and we mostly got used to it. The amount of noise may also vary, depending on which side of the house your room is on.

We are happy that we lived all this time in Sofia’s apartment. Sofia trusted us, and we trusted her. She was always there when needed. We are grateful to Sofia for supporting us, helping us, and being understanding.
The apartment is located on a quiet, peaceful, and safe street. Everything is nearby — a pharmacy and a big supermarket open until 10 PM. It’s convenient and close to everything. The neighbors are nice. We are very glad we chose Sofia’s apartment.

This was one of my best stays in Portugal: starting from arrival till departure. Barry is the best from the best hosts: he shared clear instructions how to find the property and was very kind to show me around the neighborhood and give tips where to eat out etc. He is a true gentleman and I really enjoyed talking to him and the company!!!
The studio is very bright and clean, full of light, airy and has everything one needs. It is exactly what you see in the pictures in flatio. It was so nice to wake up and listen to birds singing. Very calm and tranquil place. A 20 minute walk will take you to the ocean and Cascais is close by. Pingo doce supermarket is across the narrow road so it actually takes a minute and you find yourself in the supermarket and can get what you need.
The property and the host are both highly recommended. I will definitely come back again.

General evaluation : A quiet space for work and comfort
When I arrived at the house, I found a clean and organized place for those looking for a
comfortable stay while working remotely. Right at the entrance, we were greeted by the landlord, who
was attentive and available from the start. The house offers a great structure for those
who want to combine work and leisure time, providing suitable environments for
productivity and rest.

The dedicated workspace was undoubtedly one of the highlights of the house. Positioned
in a well-lit and airy spot, the desk is ideal for those who need to spend hours focused on projects.

The internet connection was also a strong point: with a stable and fast speed, we were able to
video calls and send large files without any problems.
The experience was good for those who depend on
on a stable connection to work remotely.
Although our stay was generally very pleasant, we did face a few small challenges
upon arrival. There was a problem with the lock on the entrance door, which caused some discomfort at first.

Barry is very nice and very attentive to our needs. The apartment has a nice location, is well-equipped and is very bright with sunlight. A supermarket is very convenient to this location. The only issue we had is that the ceilings are low in places. This can lead to a lot of head bumping until you get used to it. Overall, we rate this apartment and landlord very highly.

Thank you for the wonderful beachfront apartment! The place has everything we need for a great family time with children. The apartment is modern, clean, bright, and spacious!
The location is just unbeatable - first line, just on the beach. The view of the sunset is breathtaking.
The apartment has private parking, which is especially helpful during busy days on the beach.
Great communication with the hosts.
As for suggestions, the balcony could use some furniture, and please be cautious with small children on the balcony, as there are no protective railings or glass yet.

It was a perfect rental. Matilde is a super professional landlord, she has prepared everything to make us feel comfortable.
The apartment is fully prepared for the tenants and has everything you need except a washing machine, but Matilde shared a location of the nearby laundry at the moment of move-in. It is a pleasure to stay there with the Ocean view, and the sounds of the ocean at any time, the perfect microclimate of Sintra provides you with an even better experience.
The beautiful clear beach is just in front of you, and you have space where to park your vehicle near the house.
Matilde prepared for us a few cool places nearby and shared available activity options.
If you want to relax and have a lot of joy, it's the perfect place to stay.

This is hands down the best experience I've ever had renting a place from the owners. Beginning with my first message to Ursula to inquire about the rental, I knew this would be special. The flat itself is small but extremely well-designed and has everything one needs. But that's just the beginning. Ursula and Stefan are more than landlords, they are an extremely kind couple who take genuine interest in the welfare and happiness of their tenants and I now count them as friends.
The flat is located in the village of Murches, which is quiet and quaint and provides a serene home base. Cascais is a short bus or Uber ride away.

The only thing that could be improved is the installation of a washing machine, especially for longer stays.
Overall we couldn't be happier with this rental!

I was in this flat for 3 months and I really enjoyed my time there. The Pingo Doce grocery store was within 200 feet of your front door, and it had everything. The surrounding neighborhood is also really nice. You can leave the flat and in a 10–15-minute walk one direction will take you to a working-class neighborhood and restaurants and the other direction can take you to a high-end neighborhood, cafes/restaurants.
It is spotless clean and bright! You may be a bit uncomfortable, in areas of the apartment, if you are maybe over 6 feet tall. The roof slants in certain areas so it takes a bit of getting use to in parts of the apartment but more of a minor inconvenience. Barry, the landlord, is a gem of a gentleman. He will take extra efforts to make you feel welcome and answer any request or questions.
Bonus: You can walk to the beach in 10-15 minutes and the view from the boardwalk is addictive. Also, the soccer stadium is right behind the apartment so going to the games or just watching the activities is exciting.

Very spacious house in a relaxing and quiet location near the coast in a cute village. Comfy furniture, great bed and well equipped kitchen. The weather wasn’t the best when we were there but else you could enjoy the big sunny terrace where you can clearly hear the sea. It was our first time via Flatio and only stayed there for 1,5 weeks so just keep in mind to buy/take some things yourself like garbage bags, washing powder, detergent, etc. Can definitely recommend the place!
