Excellent) experience with this rented home & property manager.
This is a large apartment, with separate rooms, there are very large windows, lots of fresh air, light and AC in every room.
There is a workspace and the Wi-Fi works well throughout the place.
The property manager is delightful communicative and professional, took the time to show us everything around the apartment's open arrival, and explained the nearby shops.
Neighborhood
Palmela is located strategically between Lisbon and Setúbal.
This is a quiet and lovely neighborhood.
There is a place to exercise & meditate both in and around the apartment.
if you are looking to work out outdoors there is also a running/bike path right around the corner, there are also lovely trails for a nature walk some are on really comfortable sand.
As for Groceries fast food and ordering online almost anything you need can be ordered with all major apps (such as Bolt & Uber) and online grocery shopping will Dilver here.
A 5 -10 min' ride or a 20-30 min walk will get you to a few supermarkets.
The city of Setúbal is just a short 20-30 min' ride away and you can get there by car or by ordering an Uber/Bolt there are also bolt scoters located randomly in the area.
Public transportation is also available a short walk up the road and you will reach the bus stops to Setúbal or walk for 15 min to the train that will get you connected to anywhere in the country and of course to nearby Lison ( about 1 hour ride ).
Recommended places nearby
As A little bonus, you can see the impressive view of Palmela castle in all its glory soaring high above is available from the street.
It's a short 5 min' drive and I recommend watching the sunset from there while you enjoy a breathtaking bird's eye view of the whole area to Lisbon and Setúbal, it's always great to get the lay of the land and realize how strategic Palela has been historically.
