Our stay at Casa Do Pego lived up to every bit of our anticipation. So much has been said about Andre and the responsivenes and resources he provides- and none of it is enough to capture how helpful he is! His recommendations and accommodations were so helpful with planning, and since the area is truly still off the beaten path (blissfully) many of his tips would be missed by the un-initiated visitor. This in one of the things we loved most about Carvalhal and Comporta- it was full of hidden secrets and small adventures. With only one week in Portugal, we devoted almost our entire stay to exploring the beautiful, intriguing and unique areas and getting to know the people who live or visit here. The combination of rural, local, rustic elements (farming tractors, fisherman huts, small mercados, local cafes) and sophisticated, luxurious features (restaurants, boutiques, beautiful homes) was like nowhere we have been.
The home and specific location speak for themselves- it was such a treat to be surrounded by the relaxed, chic feel of the home, and the peace and safety of the neighborhood was comforting. The beaches themselves you have to see to believe.
The ultimate vacation for our active family with three teenage daughters. Not to be missed: Donna Bia, Salburger (roadside "food truck"), Comporta Cafe snack hut, biking to the beach and Carvalhal, horseback riding, yoga shala, dolphin tour.
Thank you Andre and family and the wonderful people we met!
