CASCAIS, PORTUGAL

I spent a few days after Lisbon in Cascais, Portugal and I really wish every single person could see this magical place. It’s a beautiful beach town only 30 minutes from the city. I was in town with IHG Hotels and stayed at their gorgeous Intercontinental Cascais-Estoril property. I loved waking up to the view of blue. Our balcony was my favorite meditation spot. It’s so picture perfect, it’s hard to imagine that it is real. Our long Portugal trip at the end of September was the best time to visit. Warm days on the beach by day, and curled up in a sweater for a cozy dinner in town. 10 days in Portugal with my family and I never wanted to come home. The food is fresh. The people are kind. Portugal is beautiful in every single way. I had an absolute blast and I would do it all over again.
