About this property

Charming Former Fisherman's Cottage With Private Pool Very Close From The Beach!

Welcome to Casa da Praia Algarve! Your home away from Home!!

Old-fashioned charm greets you everywhere you look in this 300-year-old former fisherman's house, beautifully converted into a romantic cottage with private pool and terrace steps from the beach of Praia da Luz. The soft colours of the décor are complemented natural light that bathes the rooms.
The selfcatering cottage is 200 m from the the beach and close all the facilities of this sought-after holiday village. There is a bakery and a small supermarket close to the house so you don’t need to go far for your daily fresh bread and fruit, and your car can be parked right in front free of charge.
The cottage was completely refurbished. It contains three bedrooms, a kitchen, dining area (seats 6 people), bathroom with bathtub and shower, sitting room, private pool (4x2 m), terrace with BBQ, sink and outdoor shower. The thick walls of the traditional construction keep the house cool in summer and warm in winter.
Two beds each in the second and third bedrooms make for plenty of accommodation, and curling up with the TV or book in the sitting room, is a great way to get in the holiday mood.

Start the day with coffee and honey cake by the private pool, enjoy a day at the beach or exploring the sights, then finish the evening relaxing under the fruit trees of the shady terrace.
The Casa da Praia Algarve portfolio have been personally developed by myself. I live in the Algarve for more than 15 years.
The cottage is scattered with unique and eclectic pieces, gathered from my travels around the world.
Share a meal cooked in the peace of your garden, or venture out to one of the many local restaurants and bars.
For quieter evenings and undisturbed relaxation, you'll find a selection of board games and books in several languages.
Looking for vegetarian dining options, a vineyard, or where to find almond and fig orchards? Hoping to catch a glimpse of a wild boar or a dolfin? Yearning for a hand-woven blanket or a handbag made from cork?
The property has a folder contains a sampling of my personal favourites - places to go, things to see, what to buy and what to eat.

I live locally and are available to help with any problems or questions.

How nice is that .... The beds are made and there are enough towels in the closet. The house is equipped with hand, tea and dish cloths, herbs, dishwashing liquid, hand soap, soap, shampoo, bath soap, coffee, tea, sugar, garbage bag and also the first roll of toilet paper is not lacking.

No stress ... .. you have vacation! Good food, a good glass of wine, a dip in the pool, cycling, walking or just nothing at all. We hope that you quickly feel 'at home' and enjoy,

The Neighborhood
Praia da Luz is charming, the perfect sheltered beach is a big draw for families and the atmosphere is great. Enjoy a day at the beach or exploring the remarkable historic sites in the area, and return to an oasis of calm for a cool shower and a glass of delicious local wine.

When to come
The Algarve is an all year round holiday destination.
If you're not tied to the school holidays, the spring and autumn months are a lovely time to be here, and of course, much quieter than high summer.
Even December and January can be warm and sunny although the evenings are often chilly. Not all the restaurants and bars stay open in winter, but there is still plenty of choice, and a warm welcome.

Great cottage in a great spot
What a wonderful rustic cottage with a great pool/yard space. The decor and comfort was great. The location was ideal with restaurants and the beach nearby. Parking is wherever you can find it nearby top or bottom of the hill as the road was too narrow to park. The amenities for the kitchen were well stocked. The lighting in the bathroom was dim but the lower part of the cottage had great light. It was cozy, comfortable and quiet- except for a neighbour’s dog excessively barking in the middle of the night. All 4 friends would stay again!

Unterkunft mit Charme
Super Lage nahe Strand. Renoviertes 300 jähriges Fischerhaus mit viel Charme - toller lauschiger Innenhof mit Outdoordusche. Nichts für Komfort-Suchende - eher Reduktion auf das Wesentliche. Pool leider undicht und Geräte in der Küche sehr veraltet. Agentur sehr hilfsbereit!

PERFECT family getaway
Great beautifull and very stylish cottage. We where a family of 2 adults and 4 children. The house has 3 bedrooms that fitted us all. More then enough room for us all. Very good kitchen and washing machine. But the location is the deal maker! Steps to the beach which our kids loved. Quite place and very clean. Many many restaurtants, 2 good supermarkets. We did go into the Lagos for groceries one day, but it isn't necessary. You will find everything you need in Praia da Luz. We loved the pool and the kids loved the beach toys. The owner was a dream to deal with! I could go on and on ...... dreaming of the Algarve and this amazing very cosy former fishermens cottage! I can't imagine anyone being disapointed with this rental.

Fantastic cottage in the best location.
We spend a very nice holiday at Casa da Praia Algarve, everything you need for a very quiet relaxed holiday yet only a short stroll from the beach and the lovely restaurants. We loved the pool and the quite terrace outside where we had many BBQs. Very comfortable beds. Kitchen has everything you will need. The cottage was spotless when we arrived, very well maintained house. We would highly recommend this house and will return. Thank you to the owner for having us experience this unique house which made our holiday special.
