➤ Please note that this accommodation is not very suitable for guests with mobility problems or young children as it is located on a hill. ➤ Please note that the property is located in the historical town, and parking spaces can be limited. You will be able to find parking in the surrounding area, just a short walk from the property.
## Interaction
Your local host will be available and will provide you with all the information you need to find the exact location of the house, for your key collection and stay. Also available for questions during your stay.
Also good to know that you will have great neighbours who are there to help or advice you with anything, also enjoy local life and meet the old local ladies passing by in their daily walk.
## Neighborhood
Located in the hills of rich history and authentic Portuguese culture this place is truly a hidden treasure. Guests will fall in love with the rustic village atmosphere, as well as quick access to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Casa Aljezur brings the best of both worlds - allowing travelers to be able to enjoy activities in town, museums, hikes, surfing, social gatherings, etc. and retreat back to a comfy, adorable place to rest.
Casa Aljezur's guests walk to the municipal market (a 5-minute downhill stroll) for the best local fresh fish and products, or just to enjoy the atmosphere. On their way through the narrow old streets they pass the municipal museum, the original village church, and they cross the road that leads to the old moorish castle.
In the opposite direction, the street takes you to the road leading along the creek to Amoreira beach, one of the most beautiful in the region, with a small river running all the way to the ocean, a sandy beach with dunes and a rocky beach area with natural pools packed with ocean life.
The area has grown very popular with hikers, thanks to the Vicentina Route and the famous fishermen trail, which you can join easily from Aljezur.
## Transit
You are 5 min walk from the town centre with cafes, restaurants, supermarkets, banks and tourist office and bus stop from where every days 2x a bus goes to Lisboa (only 17 euro) and more frequent busses to Lagos etc.
To explore the area you can either hike one of the trails, use a mountainbike to get around or drive around by car to see even more.

This accomodation is cute and spacious inside, it has a great kitchen and peaceful vibe. The views from the picnic table outside are wonderful. The parking at the top can be tricky, but ypu can park at the bottom and walk up too.
The cottage was very nice and clean, unfortunately there is not so much light in the rooms as it seemed from the pictures.
We had a lovely week staying there. Everything was well equipped lots of space for stuff you can bring.
You might need to walk a bit to the house because the roads are quite steep.
It was a very nice stay in the apartment. The apartment is located directly on the mountain in Aljezur. It has a nice outdoor area where you can also eat. The kitchen is well equipped. When the weather is not so good, you can watch a movie on the Smart TV in the evening. Eve was always available as hostess and even left us a little guide :)
The only drawback for us was the shower, which unfortunately didn't always have hot water. The boiler sometimes doesn't seem to start.
The cottage is a nice and dreamy place. Everything (from booking to check-in and Check-out) went without complications, the contact was very friendly. We would definitely recommend this place! Thanks for everything.

Nice place, good price for really nice performance!
Not easy to find but a beautiful place to stay! The only problem is, the house is on top of a hill so it is difficult to reach by car.
All went well, even on short notice. Few Minor issues with installations, and unfortunately wiindows only on one side of the house - some additional light for the rooms towards the back would benefit living there, in particular when the weather is bad.
Eine sehr schöne Unterkunft mit allem, was man braucht. Die Küche ist bis auf eine Mikrowelle komplett ausgestattet, die Betten sind bequem und die Einrichtung gemütlich.Die Gastgeberin haben wir zwar nicht persönlich getroffen, aber am Telefon war sie sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, als es kurz kein Warmwasser gab. Die Dusche ist etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig – die Duschwand war halb kaputt und das Wasser wechselte zwischen warm und kalt. Sie meinte jedoch, dass bald eine neue Duschwand eingebaut wird.Die Unterkunft liegt idyllisch und ruhig über Aljezur mit schönem Blick auf die Stadt. Ein großer Supermarkt (ähnlich wie Lidl oder Kaufland) ist in 5 Minuten mit dem Auto oder 20 Minuten zu Fuß erreichbar. Entlang der Straße gibt es gemütliche Cafés und eine Postfiliale in der Nähe.Einziger Nachteil: Zum Meer sind es rund zwei Stunden zu Fuß (mit dem Auto 15 Minuten), und die engen, steilen Straßen zur Unterkunft erfordern viel Fahrgeschick, Nerven und Regnen sollte es auch nicht. Direkt hinfahren kann man ebenfalls nicht, daher ist es sehr ruhig, aber man muss das Gepäck ein Stück tragen.Insgesamt hat uns der Aufenthalt sehr gut gefallen – klare Weiterempfehlung!
Von der Terasse der Wohnung hat man eine wunderschöne Aussicht. Man kann dort zum Essen sehr schön sitzen. Die Wohnung ist sehr gemütlich eingerichtet und sauber. Man kann nicht direkt bei der Wohnung parken, da diese am Hang liegt. Aber zwei Straßen weiter hat man immer einen Parkplatz gefunden. Die Straßen sind ziemlich eng.

Conforme à l'annonce
Bon contact.
Cuisine spatieuse.
Il n'est pas possible de se garer à côté, mais nous étions prévenus. Belle côte à prendre à pied du coup avec la valise.
Pas de vis à vis.
Village sympathique
Großzügige Küche mit guter Ausstattung. Gemütlicher Kaminofen, kleiner feiner Sitzplatz vor der Tür. Nette Ansprechpartnerin vor Ort. Es war sehr schön.
A casa encontra-se numa zona muito gira de Aljezur. No entanto o acesso (conforme descrito no anúncio online) é complicado e o estacionamento muito difícil. A casa é simples mas está limpa e bem decorada. Os lençóis e fronhas da cama deviam ser substituídos por uns novos.
