The experience

If you love the ocean, this corner of Portugal is a huge adventure playground. If you also love good company in a relaxed yet sociable guest house this is the right place! :)

Close enough to the buzzing tourist hotspot Lagos, but far enough to enjoy the relaxed vibe of nature. Excellent kite, surf and SUP spots in all directions.

Oh, did we already mention the laid-back little beach and the super scenic walks along the cliffs…? :)
