Ask a questionAbout Susannah Churcher
My parents purchased Casa do Mar in this a then undiscovered part of the Algarve in 1971. I now manage the house for the current owners who have owned the house for many years. It has provided for many great and happy family summers both for me as a child and now as an adult with my own children when I have a chance to visit . Casa do Mar has been a family holiday home for 40 years with visitors who initially brought their children to stay and still return yearly but now with their grand children !
Why Susannah Churcher chose Praia da Luz
Casa do Mar’s position is simply stunning. To go to sleep hearing the sea and wake up to the blue skies melting into the blue ocean, framed by the green lawns is a sight I never forget. The house isn’t surrounded by neighbours either because of its beach front location so it’s peaceful and private. Having a contract cleaning service and local manager to take care of the house and change the linens and keep things tidy means that you can really switch off and enjoy your holiday. Even when the house is full (it can accommodate 3 families easily), you never feel crowded which is often the case in most villas as there is so much space to spread out. There is a huge front terrace running the full width of the house, a separate big terrace by the lovely pool, lawns aplenty to spread out on and sun loungers for everyone! There is also a lovely marble outside dining table where you can sit in the shade enjoying long lazy lunches before flopping into the pool or going for a glass of wine on the beach as the sun sets. Its location brings great serenity as well as lots of fun, joy and relaxation.
