Since the 1920s, it has been a favoured haunt of Europes aristocracy and royal families (many of the exiled or deposed have made this their home) and in the 21st century, it is now a hot spot for major international personalities from the world of fashion, sport and entertainment.
This region has a unique atmosphere, removed from the bustle of the city but with easy access to all the culture that Lisbon offers. With a good road network, most venues on the Estoril Coast are within half-an-hours drive from Lisbon and its international airport.
Setubal, which is this regions most southerly town, is about 50 minutes. The railway system is excellent. Portuguese trains are generally very modern and clean and invariably run exactly on time, so You Can leave your car and hop on a train to get into the city.
