Description
This beach house rental in Portugal was designed as an exercise in simplicity and reworked traditional architectural elements. Made up of a whitewashed cement house, with a detached wooden cabin sitting beside it, it sleeps up to seven guests. It’s located in a great part of the country as well – near the hip town of Comporta and just 3km from one of the best beaches in Portugal.
We love how the houses have strong lines but are simply furnished and almost completely unadorned – creating a simple, relaxed atmosphere. The space was created, the owners tell us, for communal living, with its open-plan areas, floor-to-ceiling windows that bring outside inside, and the cool little pool in the garden.
The main house has one bedroom with a double bed and bathroom, another with two single beds, which can be combined, and a living room with kitchen and dining table. The cabin has a double bedroom and bathroom.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Amenities include wifi, cable TV, portable Bluetooth music receiver, Playstation 3 with some games, books in several languages, cards, table games, Netflix, toddler toys, baby chair and bed, and two extra beds. Linen and pool towels are supplied.
The kitchen has electric oven/hotpoint hob, microwave, toastie maker, kettle, coffee machine, dishwasher, and fridge/freezer.
AROUND
The house is located in Brejos da Carregueira de Cima, in rural Herdade da Comporta, surrounded in lavender and rosemary-scented pine woods and rice fields. It’s close to the villages of Carvalhal and Comporta. Pego and Carvalhal beach are five minutes away by car, and Comporta beach is ten minutes away.
The region of Comporta is located about one hour south of Lisbon, in the Sado Estuary Nature Reserve, where the Sado river meets the ocean. It’s a popular destination for locals that has recently started attracting an international clientele because if its unspoilt charm and golden sandy beaches.
There are loads of great restaurants and bars nearby. Outdoor activities range from walking through the rice fields to horse riding, biking from beach to beach, and dolphin watching on the Sado estuary. For families with children, there are some additional options – Badoca Park (40 mins by car), a safari park, and the Science Museum at Lousal Mines (50 mins).
Bikes can be rented locally. There is a children’s playground 20 meters away.

We loved our stay at the White House + Cabin. The space is perfect for a small family. The kitchen had all of the basics that we needed and we enjoyed the open living/dining/kitchen floorplan. It was great to have the small pool in the garden for hot afternoons.

We could not have had a better stay at the White House & Cabin. First of all, Samuel was incredibly responsive, from the moment we booked the property until we arrived, including checking in on us while we were there to make sure everything was alright. The house and cabin were perfect for our family of four. Our son loved having his own private villa in the cabin, and the fact that each of the three bedrooms has its own bath made it completely comfortable for all of us. The house is well stocked with everything you need to cook a meal (in all honesty, for us this just consisted of mixing up some sangria and setting up a cheese plate for appetizers pre-dinner, and one breakfast!). The only thing I would suggest adding to the amenities would be beach towels as these are not available at the beaches nearby and we had to bring our bath towels. The house has a relaxed beachy vibe and is so perfect for relaxing after a long day of exploring the area. It is also perfectly situated for everything we wanted to visit — minutes to Comporta village and beach, Pego and Carvalhal beaches, and an abundance of great restaurants. The beautiful brochure Samuel provided was a great resource for day trips and exploring the area. (We highly recommend horseback riding through the rice fields and the beach with Cavalos Na Areia – a highlight of our trip!) We fell in love with Comporta and will definitely be back!!
