"Casa do Areal, Retreat close to scenic trails & the most awarded Beach."

Welcome to Casa do Areal, a beautifully remodeled, charming countryside retreat that holds a special place in our hearts. This house was once the home of our grandparents for over 30 years, lovingly built by our grandfather and his sons in 1975. It’s where we played as children, creating cherished memories surrounded by family and laughter. Sadly, during the devastating wildfires of 2017, the house was partly destroyed, and the loss we felt inspired us to rebuild it with even more love and care, restoring it to its rightful place as a home for new memories.
Nestled in a tranquil cul-de-sac in Mira, a peaceful coastal town along Portugal’s picturesque Costa de Prata, Casa do Areal offers the perfect balance of serenity and adventure. Just a few minutes’ drive (or a leisurely bike ride) to the beach, the house’s backyard opens up to a lush forest, where the trees and vibrant greenery will accompany you throughout your stay.
If you love nature, the great outdoors, and savoring traditional local cuisine, get ready for an unforgettable experience. The area offers a wealth of activities to immerse yourself in—whether you enjoy walking, cycling, birdwatching, canoeing, or surfing, it’s all just a stone’s throw away. And if you're craving a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, this is the perfect sanctuary for you. Let your children play freely in the street or explore the spacious backyard, while you embrace the slow, relaxing pace of life that this place offers.
From the moment you arrive, we will make sure you're warmly welcomed and have everything you need for an exceptional stay with family or friends. Casa do Areal features two cozy bedrooms with double beds, and a third bedroom with four comfortable single beds, making it the perfect retreat for up to eight guests. At the back of the house, you'll find a charming terrace, the perfect spot to savor a delicious meal al fresco or simply unwind with a good book and the soothing sounds of music. For those magical evenings, there’s a barbecue ready for a sizzling feast, and a cozy fire pit where you can gather around, strumming songs under the stars or roasting marshmallows to create unforgettable memories. We organize thrilling 4x4 tours and immersive experiences that invite you to dive deep into the vibrant culture and rich traditions of the region. Whether you’re exploring hidden gems or discovering the local way of life, every moment is an adventure. Plus, there are a variety of exciting activities for you to try, ensuring there's never a dull moment during your stay!
We are thrilled and can’t wait to host you for an unforgettable escape in this beautiful corner of the world. 🌿🦩🍀😉
