Vacation Rental Description
If you are looking for a peaceful holiday in a traditional and unspoilt resort then this definitely the place for you! This is a beautiful three bedroomed house built on three floors in an exclusive and truly tranquil setting on Portugal's Silver Coast. It is situated in an exclusive but traditional area near Areia Branca, within a small gated condominium comprising just 21 houses with two pools and a floodlit tennis court. The property is set in lovely landscaped grounds has secure underground parking, a large crescent shaped swimming pool with unobstructed panoramic views of the ocean, a safe children's pool, private and shared garden areas, a free floodlit tennis court and private pedestrian access to the cliff path leading to a breathtakingly beautiful beach with white sand and hardly a soul in sight! This house offers something for everyone. If you are looking for absolute peace and tranquility, then book out of season and you may well have the entire place to yourself to sit and gaze at the ocean. All you will hear is the sound of the waves and the odd church bell. In the popular summer weeks, there are usually other families with children around so it's a great place to make friends and socialise.
The house is very well equipped for 6 guests and is beautifully furnished in a contemporary style. There is satellite TV, a library of DVDs and music CDs and a playstation 2 with games. All bedrooms are en-suite with a jacuzzi bath in the master bathroom. Fabulous ocean views from the garden, terrace and bedrooms and miles of virtually empty white sandy beaches stretch in either direction.
This part of Portugal is a surfer's paradise but is still largely undiscovered by holiday makers even though it is just an easy 45 minute drive from Lisbon airport. There are traditional bars and restaurants in the nearby resort of Areia Branca which can be reached in two minutes by car or a longer stroll along the beach. The nearest town is Lourinha which is a five minute drive away and has plenty of shops, three large supermarkets, several restaurants, banks and an indoor food market. Also within a short drive is the beautiful world heritage site of Obidos and the famous lagoon at Foz d'Arelho.
