Les Terrasses de Comporta
Les Terrasses de Comporta is a modern beach holiday home near Comporta on the beautiful Alentejo coast about 1 hour south of Lisbon.
We wanted to create something next to the ocean but respecting the surrounding nature.
Comporta Dune House
Please note: the villa is now fully booked until mid-September 2023.
How would you describe the Dune House in a nutshell?
The Dune House is a luxurious yet unpretentious beach house in the village of Comporta, which lies on the doorstep of scenic rice fields and mountainous Parque Natural da Arrabida.
What is the story behind the Dune House, what was your inspiration to create it?
The idea was to create something next to the ocean but respecting the surrounding nature. During construction, the impact on the environment was minimal and not a single tree was cut. Around 100 new pine trees were planted inside and outside the house, plus more than 200 native plants. In a few years, I want to see the house completely enveloped by pine forest.
How would you describe the atmosphere, architecture and interior design of Dune House?
The interiors are bright and fresh with a peaceful atmosphere.
To you personally, what is so special about the Dune House?
To me, it’s the continuity between the interior and exterior spaces and the integration of the house with the surrounding sand dunes and pine trees.
Comporta Dune House is set across 400 square metres and positioned on top of the dunes. It features a 60-metre-long corridor and six symmetrically positioned rooms that can accommodate up to 8 adults and 6 children. Also within the design are four interior gardens that bring the outdoors in. An open-plan kitchen, living and dining area overlooks an outdoor patio and the in-ground swimming pool.
OVERVIEW: 4 double rooms with 180 x 200 cm beds and ensuite bathroom with shower. 2 bedrooms with a double bunk bed (90 x 200 cm) and ensuite bathroom with shower. 1 small service bedroom with single bed 90 x 200 cm and ensuite bathroom with shower.
We provide everything guests need for a short or long-term stay, including a well-equipped kitchen, a washing machine and an HDTV with Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, and Netflix. There’s a wood-burning fireplace to keep you warm in the cooler months and an outdoor swimming pool for refreshing in the summer. In addition, there is complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the property, an electric vehicle charger and an outdoor fire pit.
Aside from swimming at the beach and paddle boarding, you can go sailing, horseback riding and cycling. Nearby are several golf courses and tennis courts.
3 highlights are: Relaxing on the 90 kilometres of untamed beaches, visiting the Comporta rice fields and exploring the rugged landscapes of Parque Natural da Arrábida
The house is 10 minutes drive from the village of Comporta and 30 minutes by ferry from Setubal. You can reach Lisbon in around 1.5 hours. The closest beach is just one minute’s walk from the house.
This part of the Alentejo hasn’t been overdeveloped and remains pretty much as it was 50 years ago.
