Cascais is very touristy and quite expensive for Portugal. In the centre it was hard to find a normal supermarket with normal prices. The beach in Cascais is very crowded, but Guincho beach is nearby and that's fantastic.

Beautiful area. Several places to eat within walking distance. Felt very safe in this area. Easy to get to from Lisbon by train. Definitely a walking city. As in Lisbon as well, so many restaurants have virtually the same menu. Hard to differentiate which restaurants were better that others. Unbelievable number of souvenir shops that have the exact same merchandise. Same in Lisbon and Porto.

An amazing resort with helpful friendly staff. We were upgraded to a suit on arrival which sweetened the stay even more. Great sauna, Turkish bath, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, and access to gym. The buffet was great but too pricey and a little dull but tasty. The decorations and atmosphere created was magical. Extremely clean, modern and comfortable. Love this place and will be back.

I have heard about the town but this was my first visit. Lovely little city. Great walks around the old town and down to the marina which looks to be a very modern development. There is a citadel/castle in which there is a Posada - rooms in which to stay and restaurants. Some great boats on the marina. A row of restaurants along the marina complex and the rest of the town full of choice. Some great bars. During our visit the Festa Mar had just kicked off. Free concert in the evening. Great first act with Mathay, fantastic voice and got people joining in. This is an annual festival, a week long event at the end of August. You will hear the music and the warm up testing sessions. We enjoyed the concert and the noice did not bother us but I can it would some - but all done by midnight. We will definitely visit again.

We absolutely love Cascais and would recommend it to anyone who likes the combination of casual refinement, good size town with lots of stores, wonderful restaurants and bars and beach directly in front. I have visited 65 countries and the Portuguese in general rate amongst the friendliest with Cascais taking friendly to a different level.they go over and above re efficiency and politeness with a great sense of humor. They have a great open air market on wednesdays, saturdays and Sundays with both new, vintage and se one hand clothing and shoes. Also a lovely indoor market with flowers and fresh fruits.the pineapple Pina coladas are amazing and are sold at the beach front and all over town. Well worth a try. For restaurants, try House of Wonders. Amazing concept. It’s all plant based and each dish is on display with an e plantation of what it contains by the owner. You select and then you sit wherever you choose of several outdoor spaces and they come and find you. Delicious! Also try Bougainville for a more upscale evening meal. Absolutely beautiful space and great food. The marina area is beautiful and chock full of places to eat as an alternative to being in the actual town taxis are cheap, wine is reasonable! First time there but I will be back!

Perhaps I may have enjoyed Cascais more had I visited during a different month. It was so crowded! Traffic was bumper to bumper. People at the beaches and in shops and restaurants were shoulder to shoulder. Parking was a problem. Things were better after sunset. Madness during the day.
