The hosts were very friendly and helpful. The rooms, gardens and swimming pool were immaculate. Great location, quiet, peaceful and chilled atmosphere. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable!

Ryan South Africa

Barbara and Fabio were fantastic and considerate hosts! We enjoyed the smell of the lavender flowers in the morning in front of our room which was very comfortable and equiped whit all you need. The breakfast was also a great to start in the day (specially the homemade banana bread). After a hard day of surfing you can relax at the pool or in the hammock. Furthermore it was possible to rent surf equipment at the b&b and there were also a lot of beach stuff like an umbrella or beach tennis to borrow for free. We couldn't have a better stay and we are looking forward to come back.

It feels like staying with family and you will get suggestions for activities and restaurants. Suggestions were also given for Lagos. Room was comfortable and has everything you need. Would recommend to anyone. You will leave feeling relaxed.

Such a zen and relaxing place to be, it's got some magic about it. The owner was so helpful too, I had an issue with the lock and he came out to sort at a very late hour! A great base for exploring the local area and very peaceful indeed.

K Netherlands

Perfect location, very close to the beach of Montes Clerigos and Amoreira. Close to supermarket and to some restaurants.

Sofia Portugal

The shared areas are wonderful (swimming pool, stone garden etc). Room Amoreira: The bed is extremely good. The outside private areas right in front of the swimming pool are marvelous.

Nuno Portugal

Full of pretty details and decoration. Nice and really kind owners. I would highlight the peace in the place, because its located in a quiet street.

Maravilha da Costa
Maravilha da Costa is born by the sense of pure wonder impressed us during the first visit to this beautiful villa and the country where it is located, including its beautiful beaches: Arrifana, Amoreira and Monte Clerigo. Await guests three originals and spacious rooms each with independent entrance, private bathroom, common room, large swimming pool with colorful garden and an exclusive equipped kitchen. Wi-Fi is free throughout, parking is free, we can book surf lessons on site with a great partner's Surf School! In this house everything is accurate in every detail, it is unique, it is special because everything around is a joy for the eyes and senses of every guest which is reserved the top of courtesy and quality so that the holiday will be maximum comfort and relaxation that mean, a great experience!
Love nature, with its slow rhythms, wild places, the quiet, the force of the sea and wind, the warm sun on the skin, the feeling of freedom of the Natural Park where the house is, and especially meet new people from all over the world to continue the growth and to exchange real emotions!
Far from mass tourism, but at only 30 km from the nightlife of cities like Lagos, Albufeira, Portimao, we are in the heart of the Natural Protected Park of SW Alentejo, between cliffs, vast beaches and woods. We are only 8 km from the picturesque village of Aljezur. At 4 km there are 3 beautiful beaches and all around the possible activities are many: surfing, hiking, biking, golf, horse and mule ride along the ancient paths of the fishermen on the famous and beautiful "Rota Vicentina" and more ... Excellent restaurants are nearby, and scooter rent and a small market are located at 1 km. Car rental is recommend. Love the sunsets and enjoy them from the near magic corner of Ponta da Atalaia after a nice walk between colors and scents!!!
