We just loved our stay at Chalet Ficalho! The building, grounds and decor all radiated old-world charm. The walled property nestled in a neighborhood felt like a private sanctuary.

The staff are attentive, professional and accommodating. Everything here is just so pleasant, from the delightful breakfast on the patio to the private outdoor pool. Private parking is a bonus!

Wonderful stay at Chalet Ficalho, We stayed 7 days and it was a delight, from a friendly easy welcome, our stay exceeded our already high expectations

Our room was large, a huge firm bed, 4 windows, with shutters and blinds for a completely dark room. Bathroom was light and airy, the shower excellent, one of the best and we ONLY stay in 5 Stars today!

Breakfast was easy, good coffee, any variation of a cooked breakfast in addition to cereal, fruit, bakeries and meat, truly outstanding, nothing was too much trouble

Ficalho is SO convenient, just a 10 minute stroll into downtown Cascais, similarly no more than 10 minutes to the wonderful Marina, great bars, restaurants and cafe

A solid 30 minute stroll along the beach to Estoril and with Ubers everywhere, easy, quick and cheap to get into Lisbon faster than a train and for not much more

Overall, a wonderful week stay, the owners are attentive and yet offer serene privacy, whether hours by the pool or sat on the veranda enjoying tea and freshly made cake, or reading a book with a glass of wine in the evening, really a wonderful experience, Highly recommended

What an amazing place this is from the location, to private parking, the food (breakfast & homemade cakes) but the best thing is the owners & staff. These are such warm & welcoming people who can’t do enough for you.
We didn’t want to leave for Porto but we will always think about these people, they truly are special!

Mom and daughter run a great B&B. Historic old house with a lot of character. They do anything to help. Great location - 2 blocks to old town, 3 blocks to the water. Not in the middle of the noise and crowds. House is on a huge lot, so you don't feel closed in. Free parking inside iron gate is very nice. Small pool and grounds to lounge around on. True old world charm and great mom and daughter running the place.

We had a wonderful stay at Ficahlo. The house and grounds are beautiful, and the family and staff were very friendly and helpful, the rooms were kept spotless and would definitely recommend it to anyone interested in seeing the area.

We spent two nights at Chalet Ficalho and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is stunning and the owners are very friendly and welcoming. If we visit Cascais again we will definitely be staying here!

Perfect!

We arrived VERY early because we had to drop off family at the Lisbon Airport but were welcomed nonetheless and shown to our room. We are talking about 8:30 am! The owner offered us breakfast and it was delicious. Breads, eggs, bacon, fresh orange juice. Free off street parking but close to everything. Truly the highlight of our trip. Owbers were so kind and nice and we wish we could have stayed longer!

If you like large corporate soulless hotels this is not the place for you. If you like beautiful family-run small characterful locations I cannot recommend this hotel more highly.
The location is perfect. A short walk from the bustling town of Cascais. The garden and pool an oasis of calm. Highly recommended.

Magical Chalet in the Cascais center feels like you stepped back in time. We stayed in the prime room with the best view on the pool and the garden. Old city center is 5 minutes walk museums block away Marina 5 min walk. The best place to stay in Cascais!!! The family who owns the place are the sweetest people!!!!

So many things are noteworthy, if not unique, to Chalet Ficalho... The garden, with its beautiful centenary trees, the family history, the wines, the breakfast cakes, the friendly staff, the cracker-loving dog... and, of course, the owners!

It is very conveniently located, just an easy walk to the bustling center of Cascais, with its plethora of restaurants, and an almost as easy (except for the blazing sun!) walk to some of the famous attractions like Boca do Inferno and the lighthouse further along the coast (one of several, by the way).

Golf and chill

I had a fantastic experience. The place is beautiful, interesting, clean, relaxing and in a great location.
It is walking distance to the main town, marina and nearby park. As well as being a short taxi to the 3 golf clubs I played at.
The hosts were incredibly nice and helpful.

Charming and historic building - the family home of the proprietor, dating back to late 1800s.
Was a serene stay set back from the main square in Cascais, and perfect launchpad for us to get to Sintra and explore.
Beautiful surroundings and lovely terrace area for breakfast. We stayed for two nights and staff were really solicitous.
The hotel was newly open, so a few things would make the stay truly exceptional - hairdryers in rooms and the wifi code available upon check-in, for instance.
The owners have dogs which adds to the family feel; they seemed available throughout our stay and were friendly and warm, going out of their way to meet the needs of guests when there was no decaf coffee at breakfast, for instance.
Really well situated after a frenetic few days in Lisbon!

A fantastic place only a 5 min walk away from the center of Cascais. Beautifully renovated chalet with a serene garden and pool. Amazing breakfast with homemade cakes, and above all very friendly owners (including the dog Chico), we surely hope to come back!

Das Hotel ist wirklich mit Abstand eines der schönsten der Umgebung. Allerdings auch mit dem schlechtesten Service. So gab es für beim Frühstück eine deutlich erkennbare Zweiklassengesellschaft: während die meisten Gäste laufend nach weiteren Wünschen gefragt wurden, gab es für uns ein Glas O-Saft und dann nichts mehr. Ein Omelette mit Käse konnte uns nicht zubereitet werden, der Nachbartisch bekam eines. Nicht mehr gebrauchtes Geschirr wurde nur bei den anderen Tischen abgeräumt, bei uns blieb es stehen, was bei dem winzigen Tisch nicht schön war. Verlassene Tische wurden nicht abgeräumt.

Alternativen zu Kuhmilch mussten mühselig erfragt werden, vegetarische Option ist eine Sorte Käse. Gemüse gibt es nicht.

Trotzdem war der Kellner sehr bemüht und höflich. Sicherlich sind die Abläufe nicht gut geplant.

Auf dem Weg oben ins Zimmer fällt auf, dass die noch belegten Nachbarszimmer zwecks Reinigung offen stehen, jedoch keine Reinigungskraft auf dem Flur zu sehen ist. Ein Paradies für Diebe, da das Haus ja auch offen zugänglich ist (es gibt keine Rezeption und die Türen sind geöffnet).

Selbstverständlich war uns bewusst, dass der checkout um 12 ist. Als wir um halb 12 am (wirklich wunderschönen Pool) lagen, wurden wir erneut auf den baldigen checkout hingewiesen — von Entspannung also keine Spur.

Zudem wird man jederzeit am Pool durch die Chefs beobachtet.
