Four Points by Sheraton Sesimbra

Four Points by Sheraton Sesimbra

8/10 Good
"Staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a two bedroom suite with pool view and balcony, great view of the ocean from the 3rd floor. The rooms are a little tired looking and could do with an update (floor chipped and smoke detectors were covered in plastic for some reason), the main living area not very cosy and could’ve been furnished a little better. Comfy beds though and good water pressure in shower. Cleaners thew away my contact lens case which was a little annoying. Kids enjoyed the pool, we were there in July and it was very busy towards the end of the day but could always find a sun lounger. Breakfast was good with lots of options."

"Clean condo unit with beautiful ocean and pool views. 3 mini split hvac units kept the space nice and cool. Was great having access to a full kitchen and the foldout bed in the living room served as a nice day bed situation and good rest area with our kids. The location is definitely pretty high up so it is a bit of a trek from city center. Pool is clean and comfortable and they even have a splash pool for toddlers."

"We can’t say enough good things about this stay—everything was truly excellent. The apartment is beautiful, comfortable, and incredibly relaxing.The highlight is the veranda. The views are stunning, and we spent most of our time out there. It’s perfectly set up with a dining table, umbrellas, a lounge area, and chairs—it really feels like an extension of the apartment.The pool area is nice (not heated when we visited), and the gym looked clean and well maintained.The walk to town and the beach is steep, but we enjoyed it, and the location is great—especially with easy access to Arrábida for hiking.Sónia was an exceptional host. She met us on arrival, walked us through everything, shared great local recommendations, and even brought over an electric grill when we asked. Communication throughout was easy and responsive.The kitchen was thoughtfully stocked with coffee, tea, and a welcome bottle of wine, and having a dedicated parking space was very convenient.Sesimbra is a wonderful place to unwind—perfect for enjoying nature and fresh seafood. We would absolutely return and stay longer. This felt like a true home away from home."

10/10 Excellent
"I was a bit nervous at first because there’s no reception and the key is left in a dropbox, but the communication and support were fantastic, which made everything super easy. The apartment itself is spotless and has the most breathtaking view over the ocean — with the window open, you can hear the waves rolling onto the beach. There’s a staircase right outside the building that leads straight down to the beach, and within a few minutes you’re in the charming town center. I stayed here for a Spartan Race, and I’ll definitely be booking again next year! The only minor downside, which the accommodation can’t really change, is that the hallways from the elevator are quite dark. The lights only turn on when you walk, and only for a short distance, so it stays a bit dim. However, since you need your electronic key everywhere, even for the elevator, it still feels perfectly safe."

"Communication with Carla was fantastic. Really enjoyed her food recommendations, especially Taverna Isaiah's! Definitely the best seafood that I had while I was there and it was all pretty good. Beach was lovely. Town super walkable. The welcome basket was very thoughtful and it was nice to have some coffee pods for the Nespresso already there so I didn't have to make a special trip to the store. The house had everything I needed. It was comfortable and very clean, extremely quiet, and I felt very safe. I would definitely stay there again and recommend it to anyone traveling in the area. The balcony was amazing to watch the sunset, and you could hear the waves from the bedroom. Note: The bed in the main bedroom is a double. It was just me in there, and although the mattress was firm, I was comfortable. The room with the bunk beds is not completely separated from the room with the double, and it just has a partial divider, so if you're looking for privacy that would be something to keep in mind. The place was definitely as advertised!"
