How were these figures calculated?
The source is Portugal Portfolio's own booking records in its property management system, read on 10 November 2026. The period is 1 November 2025 to 31 October 2026, 12 months.
The sample is 34 homes in the municipality of Cascais (Cascais, Estoril, Alcabideche, Carcavelos and Parede) that had guests across the whole 12 months. Portugal Portfolio had 54 active listings on 10 November 2026, and 48 of them were in the Cascais municipality. The 34 homes sold 6,468 nights and earned about €1,307,000 in accommodation revenue.
Accommodation revenue is what guests paid for the nights, after discounts. It is before cleaning fees, tourist tax, platform commission, the management fee, utilities and tax, so it is not what an owner keeps. Every home-night is counted once. Where the same stay was recorded twice, the lower nightly rate is used, which makes the figures conservative. The median is the middle home. The lower quartile means one home in four earned less. The upper quartile means one home in four earned more. No group has fewer than 5 homes.
What do these figures not tell you?
They describe 34 homes that one company manages. They do not describe the whole Cascais market.
They cover one 12 month period, 1 November 2025 to 31 October 2026, and we do not compare them with other years. Lisbon is not in the data, because Portugal Portfolio has too few Lisbon homes to publish. Revenue is not profit. A different manager, a different pricing approach or a different home could produce different results. Do not read any figure here as a promise for a particular property.
