Casa da Encosta

Experience the authentic charm of Aljezur in one of the few traditional houses in the historic center still available for holiday stays. Preserved in its original spirit, this old house is full of character, with vintage furniture and a timeless atmosphere that reflects the history of the village. Spread over two floors, it has two comfortable bedrooms, a recently renovated bathroom and a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need to prepare your meals. With a vintage style, but impeccably clean and well-maintained, the house also has a pleasant terrace on the upper floor, with a barbecue, perfect for enjoying sunny afternoons and long summer nights. Simple, authentic and full of soul, it is the ideal place to discover the unique charm of Aljezur and the wild beauty of the Vicentina Coast. Just steps from the house, you'll find some of Aljezur's most beloved spots. Enjoy delicious wood-fired pizzas at Arte Bianca, discover local artisan products, or start your day with a healthy breakfast and excellent coffee at Roots Aljezur. Stroll through the charming streets of the historic center and visit Aljezur Castle, perched atop a hill, offering stunning views over the valley and surrounding landscape. History buffs can also visit the Aljezur Museum to learn more about the region's rich heritage. Just a 10-minute drive away is Arrifana Beach, one of the Algarve's most iconic surf spots. Whether you're an experienced surfer or a beginner, you'll find surf schools, stunning cliffs, and unforgettable sunsets. With nature, history, great food, and some of Portugal's best beaches just minutes away, Aljezur is the perfect base to experience the wild beauty and relaxed lifestyle of the Vicentina Coast.
