Well Worth a Stay - a hidden gem
We have stayed at Casa Vela on a few occassions and never disappointed any time. It is also spotlessly clean and staff and very helpful and friendly and it is very tranquil and peaceful and very close walking distance to Cascais. Would highly recommend and cannot wait for our next stay.

First family holiday abroad.
We were visiting Casa Vela for the fourth time. The previous trips being in 2012, 2014, and 2016 as a couple. This time we brought our two boys, 8yo and 5yo. They had an absolute ball - loved their room and the two swimming pools available.
The location is ideal, far enough away from the town centre to be peaceful but close enough for the boys to walk to and from the beaches.
Visiting as a family showed different areas of Cascais that we weren't away of before and there was a couple of beautiful parks both 5 mins away. Each with an adventure play park.
We will be definitely looking to come back again. Hopefully a lot sooner than the previous gap.

Very stylish hotel with cleverly integrated modern extension onto older building.
Lovely gardens with good pool and tranquil seating options.
It's a 15 minute walk to the centre of Cascais, not too far and ensures a peaceful setting.
On-street parking that requires purchase of permit, needing change to feed meter (80 cents/hour, between 0900-2000, IIRC).

Our room was large, clean, and had a very nice patio that overlooked a pool, small waterfall and lovely landscaping. Breakfast was delicious. They also had coffee and cake available in the afternoon. A honor system bar exists near the breakfast room. Front desk staff was helpful and kind. I would recommend these accommodations. There is street-side metered parking.
