The lodge offers multiple terraces, each providing its own unique way to enjoy the views, whether you prefer sunshine or shade.
The upstairs terrace features a small dining table and several lounge chairs, all overlooking the stunning ocean panorama. At the heart of the house, a traditional patio provides a peaceful spot to read, relax, and unwind. From here, a staircase leads to the spacious rooftop terrace, where you can take in spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean.
On the ground level, the pool area includes 10 loungers, umbrellas, and comfortable shaded seating areas. Adjacent to the kitchen, you’ll find a large outdoor dining space, and a bbq area perfect for shared meals outside.
At the lowest level of the property, a big wooden deck awaits, complete with a sauna and a cozy seating area surrounded by the lush garden, a serene retreat to escape and recharge.
The Villa offers a total of nine beautifully decorated, luxurious bedrooms, thoughtfully designed to provide both comfort and flexibility. Seven of the rooms feature private ensuite bathrooms and can be arranged with either a king-size double bed or two twin beds, depending on your preference. Two of these rooms can also be configured with three single beds. Each of the seven ensuite rooms is equipped with air conditioning and heating to ensure a pleasant stay in every season.
Two of the bedrooms offer stunning ocean views and include private balconies, creating the perfect setting for a truly relaxing stay. The two remaining rooms share one bathroom and each feature a 150 x 200 cm bed. They are equipped with a fan for cooling and are ideal for single travellers or couples.

We don’t work with a fixed chef, giving retreat organisers complete flexibility to arrange their own catering or choose from the many excellent chefs and catering services available in the region. With 18 years of retreat-organising experience, we’re happy to connect you with trusted local partners to match your group’s needs and style.
Our 12m x 5m pool is perfect for swimming laps or cooling off after a day of surfing or exploring the beach. Relax and enjoy the ocean views from one of the 10 loungers or 4 comfortable bean bags surrounding the pool area.
The pool is naturally heated by the sun, which, thanks to the warm climate of southern Portugal, keeps the water pleasantly refreshing throughout spring, summer, and autumn. It’s the ideal spot to unwind and soak in the serene coastal atmosphere.
Nestled on the wooden sundeck in the garden, our infrared sauna offers a peaceful retreat to relax and unwind. It’s the perfect place to warm up after an intense bike ride or a chilly winter surf session.
After your sauna session, you can refresh yourself with a revitalizing dip in the pool, just a few steps away.
