The Rua das Casas de Colmo Residence
Perks for the Parents
This spacious modern villa is spread out across three separate huts within a lovely beach-style dune garden. It sleeps 6. Located between two of Comporta’s beaches, it includes a private pool and rustic outdoor dining area. Parents will love the natural, rustic decor of each of the huts, which offer spacious areas for relaxing and enjoying the outdoors. Glowing sunsets, sandy beaches and great local restaurants are all waiting to be enjoyed just a 10-minute stroll away. Guests can spend their evenings down at the lively marina, sipping cocktails and sampling the local seafood, while watching boats bobbing in the harbour.
Why Kids Love it
Set within a beautiful dune garden, kids will love splashing about all day in the private swimming pool and playing in the sand or surfing at nearby beaches. The property is a great option for a family with older children who will enjoy a bit of independence sleeping in their own hut. The second structure on the property has a single bed and an additional bed can be pulled out to create a double room. The beach is a 10-minute walk away and offers lots of family-friendly restaurants and is packed with an array of watersport options. For day trips further afield, guests can hire a speed boat or catamaran from the Troia Marina for dolphin-watching, or try horse riding through the rice fields - this can be easily arranged with Cavalos na Areia. For older kids and strong swimmers in the family, there is a surf school and surf shop in the local village. A crib and highchair are available on request.
Things to Know
Extra 180€ paid locally by cash or bank transfer on arrival for the cleaning fee. This property is comprised of three separate buildings, one with the living space, one for the main bedroom suite and the last has two additional bedrooms. This may not be ideal if you have young children. Cleaning is included and is provided daily (except on Sundays). The pool is not gated and is accessible from all three bedrooms via french doors, so younger children should be supervised. A wooden boardwalk pathway runs through the sand in the outside area. Ask the hosts about extra services available upon request including babysitting, a private chef, additional cleaning, welcome hamper/pre-stocked fridge, local day-trips or tours, airport transfers, bike rentals, stroller, crib and high chair rentals, and additional beds.

Style Notes
Modern and serene. The villa is decorated with a relaxed feel in mind, rustic materials and neutral tones throughout the property creating a beach-inspired look and a calming space for your vacation. Decorated with traditional materials, such as wood and wicker help reflect the beautiful rural surroundings of this region. Flooded with natural light, the white-washed walls ensure the space is bright and airy. Each of the villa's bedrooms opens out onto the garden to blend the outside in. We love the touches of grass fringing for a laid-back feel and the vaulted ceiling for a sense of space.
