The owners live on the estate and are always available for any need. With a degree in hospitality, a professional career in the field and a great taste for hosting, it will be my priority to make your stay as relaxing and comfortable as possible.

We are always available to give suggestions for activities in the area and we know the gastronomic secrets around us well, which we will be happy to share!

If you're more adventurous, be sure to dive into our lake, which, with its waterslide, is a delight for the little ones. Alcácer do Sal (8 km away) is worth a visit and the Comporta area (25 km away) and its endless beaches are a must-see! Lisbon Airport is 99 km away, about an hour from Casas da Horta.
