The house is perched up on a hill with views from the porches of the rooftops and trees. Very easy walk to restaurants, wine bar, a local small grocer and more! The swimming pool is large and has nice furniture, an outdoor kitchen and is not overlooked. There is a huge terrace at the front, with very comfortable furniture and sun umbrellas. I spend a lot of time on the terrace, reading and relaxing. The property has a HUGE piece of land at the back, where the dogs enjoy running and playing.
Two bedrooms (1 king and 1 queen), spacious bath with xl shower, high speed internet & WiFi, fully equipped big cook’s kitchen, and a very comfortable living & dining area plus a tropically furnished terrace make it a resort style experience. There is reversible heat/air conditioning in the living/dining room and floor fans and electric thermostat space heaters. It rarely gets too hot (high is 75F) or too cold (low is 50F). There is a big propane 4 burner BBQ grill, plus a wood or charcoal grill in the outdoor kitchen by the pool.
The dogs do not require walks and can be left at home for up to six hours. They enjoy going down to the giant yard to run and play. The beach plus the ocean fed lagoon are walkable at around 20 minutes. It’s a peaceful paradise!
There are many beautiful places to see within 45 minutes by car. There is a direct bus from the nearby city of Caldas da Rainhas to Lisbon which takes 1 hour and 10 minutes. A car would be very helpful, as the bus has a limited schedule after August from Foz do Arelho. There are taxis available for the short ride to Caldas da Rainha.
My sits start the day before I depart, and you will enjoy the guest bedroom with its queen size bed. After I depart, you will be using the master with a king size bed. The dogs do sleep on the bed. They are usually on the couch when I watch TV. They are low maintenance, and very sweet after they get over being shy around new people. It is a very relaxed environment. There are plants that need watering (many less than the photo of the terrace which I will try to update). Come and enjoy our slice of paradise in Portugal!
