Anyone in search of a fuss-free retreat on the beautiful coast of Comporta will love this home. Secluded, rustic and simple – it’s the ideal setting to switch off and embrace the magic of the great outdoors. Consisting of a main house and an annexe, there’s ample space to stretch out and spend quality time together. You will need a car here, but the beach is a short drive away and you’ll find easy access to local amenities. Plus, your host can help arrange bike rentals – a nice way to explore the area.
