Vistas de Serenidade was originally a storage barn for the famous Reinette apples grown in the orchard where the barn is situated. Now lovingly converted to a tasteful space where you can come "home" and relax to the sounds of nature in the heart of Portugal's Silver Coast.

Enjoy the surrounding views from the outside deck or from the comfort of the open-plan living area, complete with a large sofa bed, armchair and Smart TV with access to your favourite “Netflix” programmes. Private wifi is accessible throughout the property.

The fully equipped kitchen with all necessary appliances including a 'Dolce Gusto' coffee maker, washing machine, fridge/freezer and dishwasher for your convenience. Alternatively, an outdoor BBQ is also exclusively available. Meals can be served at the dining table, or enjoyed 'al fresco' on the outdoor private patio.

After dinner, enjoy a sundowner whilst watching one of the many stunning sunsets over the picturesque valley.

Retire to the serene separate bedroom, with comfortable double bed. Wake restored, refreshed and relaxed after a restful night's sleep. The spacious private ensuite with walk-in shower gets you ready for the new day's adventures.

Your safety is naturally not compromised as the property comes complete with smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector, fire extinguisher, fire blanket and first aid kit. Your car is safely and easily accessible from the private carpark adjacent to the accommodation.
