Sandra and Eduardo are waiting for you with Portuguese flavors to taste, a delicious champagne Sangria with red fruits to celebrate your holiday. Welcome! Be our guest!
This beautiful house, built in the 1930s, was completely renovated in 2016. It is a designer house with a new interior, but with all the charm of a traditional Portuguese house. Every detail has been made with LOVE. It is located in the Banzão-Colares pine forest (Sintra), in a very private and safe area, surrounded by the beauty of Sintra forest. Wonderful beaches and many historical sites are very close. You can walk or cycle on the beach.

Three crib or infant beds are available upon request. There are two living rooms (one with smart tv), a dining room and a fully equipped kitchen.

Heated pool on request (Pool heating: EUR 25 extra charge per day). Pool heating depends on weather conditions - usually possible from April until October.
We have an additional bike rental service. It's great to go to the beach and restaurants by bike.
For children, but also for adults, we have a separate games room near the garden with ping pong and badminton. We have a children's playground in the 16 m2 garden and a wooden house that the kids will love!
Imagine sitting by the pool, having your breakfast and planning an exciting day exploring Sintra, the nearby towns and historic villages.

Perfect Family Holiday
I booked this villa for my wife’s surprise 60th, she wasn’t aware the rest of the family was there the day before. we are a 3 generation big family ranging from 9 months to 60 and based on the fact it had five bedrooms and 4 separate bathrooms it was perfect, when we arrived it stood up to our expectations plus more, it’s a perfect villa for big families, the pool, garden, the BBQ and outside kitchen all made it a holiday not to be forgotten.
It’s central to all your needs, a day trip to Sintra, Lisbon, the local beach’s , shops and restaurants, I would recommend the fish restaurant called Bar Do Fundo at the end of the beach road of Praia Grande and watch the sun set, if you want simple food and some great beers then head off to the beach village and try AMA stone bake Pizzas
A massive thank you to Sandra & Eduardo for your hospitality and arranging a traditional Portuguese birthday meal for us , the paella was out of this world😘

The perfect place to stay! Highly Recommend
We had 9 adults, children aged 7, 6,2 and newborn.
The Barca Charm house was perfect for all ages! We loved the outdoor kitchen and the pool. Wonderful communication. Sandra and Eduardo had excellent communication and recommendations for our group. Their welcome Portuguese starters and Sangria were delicious as well as the meal they prepared for us. It’s an excellent location with bus stop right outside to Sintra or the beach. Ubers were cheap and came quickly too. Easy walk to Colares for groceries and brewery.
We would stay here again and highly recommend!
Thank you for opening your home to us

The BEST!!
The Barca Charm House was our dream come true for a 50th wedding anniversary with the whole family (12 of us). Every little thing to make your vacation special has been thought of - we loved the beautiful decor with all it's colorful accents, toys & activities for kids, deightful pool, and the ourtdoor kitchen SO much!! The location is also PERFECT for enjoying Sintra, Cabo da Roca, and all the lovely beaches and quaint coastal villages that are nearby. Colares itself is a terrific little non-touristy town - a fabulous base for our 9 days. There even is excellent bus service to the beaches and towns right at the end of our little private road!
While everything about the house gets a 10+ in our book, the best is the incredible hosts, Sandra and Eduardo. They were so attentive, right from the start - and so helpful answering our many questions. They were always quick to respond with the perfect restaurant recommendation to the best fish markets to a wonderful local place to wacth Portugal play in Euros 2024! I cannot stress how much they added to our enjoyment! We left the Charm House feeling like we now had "family" in Portugal. We'd be back in a heartbeat - it is just the BEST!!! A million thanks, Sandra and Eduardo, for helping us to have the best vacation/family reunion ever!

Perfect house for family reunion!
The owners Sandra and Eduardo were amazing. They greeted us with Portuguese appetizers and sangria at their lovely home. They were very helpful, honest, caring and thoughtful.
The house was great for our party of 12. Nine adults and 3 children. We loved the outdoor kitchen, nice extra space to hang out. The house is big and wonderful for larger groups. We were all together but everyone had their privacy at the same time. Very spacious. Very close to a bus stop with connection to Sintra. We took a train from Sintra to Lisbon, very easy. The house is located approximately 30 min walk from the beach, and the beach is beautiful. House is very well equipped, we had everything we needed. We appreciated that previous guests left spaces etc. in the pantry. Very helpful when trying to cook . I would highly recommend the house . Thank you Sandra and Eduardo for making our vacation so special. We appreciate your traditional Portuguese gift as well!!! We had an awesome time at your house.

Barca Charm House
Had a wonderful time at the Barca Charm House on our first trip to the beautiful country of Portugal!! Sandra and Eduardo are the perfect hosts - made us feel like family!!! They greeted us when we arrived and Sandra prepared some Portuguese food tastes for us and Eduardo made his delicious sangria. He even returned another night and left us a surprise sangria pitcher!!! The house was perfect for our family!!! The grandkids had a backyard to play in, a sand box, play market, and playhouse to enjoy!! There were toys inside too and a small table and chairs for them.Unfortunately, we were only able to enjoy the pools on two days.The home is like old Portugal. The bedrooms were all spacious and well appointed. The kitchen was perfect for dinners. The home is also close to the beach, market and pastry shop. My kids were able to walk to the market and pastry shop to get coffee in the morning, We rented a car and drove to many sites in the area. The house is centrally located which makes it easier!!

Beautiful house & Wonderful holiday
We had an amazing holiday at the charm house, good size accommodations, plenty of towels, equipment, kitchen utensils they had really thought of everything. Lovely helpful hosts. Children loved the heated pool (extra charge). Relaxing evening around the table in the outside kitchen BBQ, games, laughing and making memories. The local beach is beautiful, a good 35mim walk from the house. Local winery, shops & restaurants all a short walk away. My only concern is that in Verbo advertising it says child’s beds in bedroom 2&5 but there are none and certainly wouldn’t be room in bedroom 5 for a child’s bed.

Amazingly perfect vacation rental and a stay we will always remember fondly
We were so happy we rented this beautiful home . Love the decorating! This place is the most perfect I have come accross in decades of travel with the nicest, kindest, most accommodating hosts. Every need had been anticipated and any question quickly answered. We had picked this house because it seemed perfect for the little kids ages 1, 2, 4 and 10 and we needed an enclosed pool. Everything we dreamed of was in the house....several cribs, strollers, high chair, children's dishes and utensils. They loved it! The play houses,sandbox and loads of toys were amazing and the kids loved it all. It's such a relief to be able to relax outside while the kids are occupied playing. Floaties and volleyball net were a big hit, and the 4 year old learned to swim here!
The outdoor kitchen was brilliant....with extra dishes, fridge and dishwasher. The hose itself is so cute and roomy with 5 lovely bedrooms , bath, big kitchen and living room and playroom. There were even English shows on tv for the kids. We were all so happy and relaxed here at our first family reunion again after Covid!
We were received with sangria and delicious Portuguese snacks ..including sausage set alight on a ceramic pig..very cute!
The next day we ordered Paella fro Sandra and what an amazing meal that was! So much to see ...beaches, Sintra, Lisbon etc. We walked to the beach or into town which was lovely. The grocery store in Colares is great..with a very good and well-priced wine selection. A wonderful stay!

Charmed by the Villa and owners
The communication from the owners was amazing from the very first moment we booked. Nothing was too much for the owners and they helped us out with so much. Even booking a restaurant for the following day at a lovely place for someone’s birthday. We didn’t hire cars due to cost and ideally due to location I would say maybe hire or have patience for a Uber but they do come eventually. Pool was amazing and they have all towels there so no need to take. Pool was heated for a extra cost of course which I totally recommend and the maid was lovely also. Restaurants near by are great and supermarket is nearby. Basically the Villa and owners are so so kind and went above and beyond which is great as in the end I felt we made some friends. Sintra was lovely nearby and well worth a visit a few times. Def shortlist this place and then maybe reach out to the owners directly if you have any questions and I assure you they come back so quickly and are helpful. The family of 13 enjoyed it massively. ❤️

Beautiful house, fantastic outdoor space
Plenty of room for our group of 7 adults and 2 children. Honestly, other than sleeping we were rarely inside the house because the outside space is so wonderful, with beautiful plantings and landscaping. The outdoor kitchen and dining area has everything you need, even a dishwasher. The kids loved the pool, table tennis, and badminton. Sandra and Eduardo are as kind and helpful as everyone has said, and we enjoyed two of their home-cooked meals and recommend them. It's an easy walk from the house to get groceries, pastries, beer, wine, etc.

Me and my family of nine had the pleasure of staying at Barca Charm House for a week. Everything was perfect for us, the house, the garden and the swimming pool. Sandra and Eduardo are absolutely outstanding hosts. We had the warmest welcoming and you could feel that they have put their heart and soul into this place.
The Colares/Sintra area is amazing with its different beaches, castles, palaces, gardens and villages. The nature is at its very best. No need for Disney World. This is so much more.
This place will forever be in our hearts. Highly recommended!

Beautiful home and great hosts
We spent a very happy family Christmas at this house with 6 adults and 2 young children. The house was comfortable for all of us, with the amenities we needed. The kids loved playing in the little houses and sandbox in the garden, and with all the toys in the play room.
The location is good for Sintra and the beach, and you can walk to a great grocery story, and into Colares town.
Our hosts were incredibly helpful and welcoming! They greeted us with a spread of local specialities, and brought us a baby bed and bath. They even helped us find a doctor, and book Covid tests. Nothing was too much trouble, and they were always friendly, welcoming, and kind.
We can't wait to come back in the summer!
