The venue is a high quality house that can accommodate eight persons in three bedrooms, four in the master bedroom, and the rest in two twin rooms. There are three bathrooms available, one of them with a big Jacuzzi that will be used as part of the program.

There is a mini gym and a living room with comfortable sofas to chill out, a pool table, and a large terrace to enjoy outside. 350 square meters of lawn invite you to connect to mother nature and delight with the sounds of birds and the ocean in the background.

The walks around are nothing short of amazing with three very impressive beaches nearby.

With an extensive beach along the cliffs, Praia da Aguda is wild and beautiful the access is for the adventurous ones but beauty and tranquility awaits at the end of the stairs. Along the coast, 2 km each way, you will find Magoito beach and Azenhas do Mar, a beautiful and awe-inspiring village perched on the cliffs. 

This location is ideal for long walks of exploration and close contact with Nature´s beauty.

The venue is just a 10-minute drive from Praia Grande, one of the most consistent breaks in the Lisbon zone. This is a very versatile beachbreak with long, but often slow waves at low tide and faster, shorter shore breaks when the tide starts pushing up.
