Location

CARVALHAL, COMPORTA

"Overlooking peaceful rice fields, this unique and stylish villa and guest cottage, are designed for relaxed living under the Comporta sun, just a few minutes’ walk to the beach."

Set as a group of separate cabanas, this Comporta rental villa has a sunny, decked pool terrace overlooking a pastoral setting of rice paddies – just the place for sunbathing and reading a book, or watch the sun go down!

Recreating the local fishermen cabanas but on a grander scale with high ceilings and generous proportions, villa Lagoa Formosa has been built using native building methods and materials. Stylish beach chic interiors complete the look. The main cabana houses an open plan kitchen and dining room, connected by a sheltered dining terrace to the living room, which in turn opens onto the pool terrace. Another cabana houses the master bedroom suite, whilst a third cabana features two en-suite bedrooms. Both the very spacious living room and the master bedroom enjoy panoramic windows over the lagoon, and the other two bedrooms have garden views. The self-contained cottage provides accommodation for two additional guests with a bit more privacy, as it has its own living room, kitchen and terraces.

Emphasizing the very relaxing setting and mood of villa Lagoa Formosa, the property has WiFi throughout but no TV. There are mosquito nets on most of the windows and the bedrooms have stand up fans to keep the breeze flowing in the summer; whilst under floor heating and a fireplace are available for use during the colder periods.

The all fenced-in garden is planted with grasses, low palms, cactus and indigenous flowering shrubs. Decked pathways take you all around the property, between the cabanas and the guest cottage, or to a corner chill-out seating area under a pergola, specially designed for enjoying the peace and quiet of the surroundings.

Pego and Carvalhal beaches are both located just a walk away from the villa and each host’s great beach bars/restaurants. There is also a surf school in Carvalhal. The local village has a number of simple eateries and bars, as well as shops selling locally caught fish and grown vegetables. The area can also be explored by bike (available for hire locally) or you can go horse riding at “Cavalos na Areia”. Comporta village with its hippy-chic shops and a wider range of restaurants is located 11 kms drive away.

WARNING NOTES: Young children are only accepted with a signed disclaimer – children need to be supervised as there unprotected drops from decked terraces all around the property and the pool does not have a fence around it. The self-contained cottage might also prove challenging for anyone with mobility issues, due to steep steps between levels.

VISITORS BOOK

"We had a truly wonderful stay . The house exceeded our expectations - an amazingly beautiful home in a fabulous location. We loved every moment we stayed there, such a special place, so peaceful and relaxing. Our whole family loved exploring the area whether it was going to the beach, horseback riding, biking, yoga, shopping and enjoying wonderful meals in or out. Local manager Paulo and his wife were terrific hosts and their attention to detail was flawless. From end to end a great trip!”
