Casa Maria> Cozy Garden Among Beach & Porto

Casa Maria is located within one of the traditional housing clusters known as "ilhas", a unique and historic feature of Portuguese urban life. Set inside Villa Santa Bárbara — an exclusive property with only three houses (Casa António, Casa Maria, and Casa Adriana) — it offers a truly intimate and authentic experience.

This charming house preserves its original character, with traditional masonry walls and a décor inspired by Portuguese heritage. The atmosphere is warm, romantic, and full of personality — a true hidden gem in the middle of the city.

Outside, guests can enjoy a unique green space of over 700 m², designed for relaxation and comfort. The garden features benches, a swimming pool, sun loungers, fruit trees, an orchid greenhouse, and an aromatic herb garden. During the day, you can enjoy the peaceful sound of birds; at night, soft lighting creates a magical and inviting ambiance.

Casa Maria features a comfortable double bedroom, ideal for two guests, with high-quality mattresses and bed linens made in Portugal.

Each house is fully independent, ensuring maximum privacy, security, and tranquility. Guests have access to a fully equipped kitchen (except for oven and dishwasher), and a bathroom with complimentary toiletries (shampoo, shower gel, soap, and toilet paper) for the first days of the stay. Additional hygiene packs are available if needed. Fresh, high-quality white towels — also made in Portugal — are provided.

For your comfort, the house is equipped with air conditioning, cable TV, and free Wi-Fi, available both indoors and throughout the garden.

Villa Santa Bárbara also offers private, gated parking with CCTV surveillance.

Please note: Local city tax is not included and must be paid at check-out.

Excellent contact avec Nuno, le propriétaire de ce joli site partagé en deux locations indépendantes avec piscine. C'est très beau, très propre, très calme. Commerces proches et transports en commun facilement accessibles. Et des petites attentions bien agréables !
