Azeitão have 12 padel tennis fields, perfect for sports.

If your game is Golf, Quinta do Peru course is only at 5 km, It was voted amongst the top 5 courses in Portugal in the biennial poll organised by the European Golf magazine.

When in the mood for culture, you cannot miss Vila de Azeitão (4 km), featuring 17th and 18th century mansions, Palácio da Bacalhoa and Quinta das Torres, famous Azeitão cheese, pastry and wine cellars. The visit to the cellars of José Maria da Fonseca is unmissable, where you can taste one of the top ten Moscatels of the World. The town of Palmela (10km) is the European city of wine in 2012.

From Arrábida to Cabo Espichel, the green hills are in perfect harmony with the blue sea, creating singular landscapes; the perfect place for walks, fauna and flora watching, sports and even some extreme activities. The white cliffs dramatically falling into the sea offer the perfect location for climbing and rappel. The winding tracks surrounded by vegetation, which take us to these places, are irresistible for tracking and BTT.

Great

We (5 adults, 2 children) had a wonderful stay at this villa, with the outdoor swimming pool and also the pool table particularly enjoyable. The house was equipped with all we needed for a comfortable stay and there were supermarkets within a 10 minute's drive. Vasco was a great host and available whenever we had any questions. I thoroughly recommend this villa for a stay in this beautiful part of Portugal.

Wonderful villa with pool

We had a wonderful holiday in this spacious, rustic villa with a good sized swimming pool and garden set in a national park near to lovely beaches and plenty of opportunities for sightseeing. Owner Vasco is very helpful with information where to visit, less than an hour to Lisbon and there are beautiful views from the villa with lots of shady areas to enjoy sitting in. We really enjoyed our stay

Wonderful family holiday in idyllic location

We were an extended family of eight, ranging from 10 to 74 years old & everyone really enjoyed their stay in this spacious, well appointed villa. The pool was lovely & very popular with the young, & not so young. The views are remarkable on all directions & at all times of day from sunrise, over the mountains of Arrabida to sunset, over the Atlantic Ocean. The location is very rural but ideal for visiting the coast at Sesimbra & Setubal + various coves only minutes by car, as are excellent restaurants & lots of supermarkets. Wonderful opportunities for cycling, on & off road. Vasco is a very friendly, approachable & an excellent host. We were sad to leave & hope to return sometime in the future.

A great house in a super location.

We were delighted with the property which was perfect for our needs with 5 adults and a baby.. the location was perfect with fantastic views of the surrounding forests and hillsides. The facilities and amenities were excellent. We all lived the swimming pool, even the baby who could play safely in the courtyards, balconies and the garden surrounding the pool. We would definitely go back and highly recommend the place to others.

Beautiful Location & Setting

If you want to escape from the rat race this is the property for you. Comfortable and well appointed with an excellent decent length swimming pool, which encouraged me to get in and do a few lenghts each day. But note it is not heated so brace yourself. The views from the terrace are stupendous and the charming town of Azeitao is nearby (approx 5kms) with a good choice of restaurants, coffee shops and 3 supermarkets. The villa is spacious and though some of the crockery needs updating (several cups and plates were chipped and a few beer glasses would have been appreciated) it has all the facilities you would expect including an outdoor BBQ, coffee machine and decent sized TV. WIFI is available also. There may be an issue with waste as there was a continuous unpleasant smell in the main bedroom and en suite which did linger, but keep the air con going in this room and the smell is masked. Definitely would recommend it, especially due to its close proximity to Lisbon, Sesimbra and Setubal. If you do go make sure you spend an afternoon on Dolphin watch off Setubal. A very satisfying and charming trip when for a good half hour you have a very good chance to witness the local Dolphins swimming and playing in their natural habitat. Memorable.

Beautiful place in quiet surroundings

We enjoyed the stay at this property very much. Even if the location is in a very quiet and rural area, the distance to Lisbon is no problem (appox 30-45 minutes drive – and hiring a car is an absolutely must). We was in Lisboa 4 days during our 2 weeks stay. Also relative short distance to the beaches at Sesimbra and the fantastic beaches at Lagoa de Albufeira. Also a nice village (Nogueira the Azeitao) in 3 km distance with several restaurants and covering all basic shopping needs. We also visited Sintra and Setubal during our stay – all places easily accessible by car. The property is large, with some green lawns suitable for sports like badminton or volleyball. The pool is large enough and deep enough to do some actual swimming/exercise (maybe less suitable for small children). The house covered our needs, with all necessary equipment, 4 bedrooms with good size and good-working air-con, plenty of outdoor furniture, a outdoor grill for barbecue, and several nice places to relax and look at the beautiful views. We where 7 people staying, and it felt at no time over-crowded. The owner of the place, Vasco, is both helpful, service minded, friendly and professional – and we had no problems at all in the practical arrangements regarding booking or during the stay. This was our first visit to Portugal, and we really fell in love with the country, the climate and the Lisboa area. Definitely not out last visit to Portugal. And if city night life or walking distance to the beach is not your top priority, I will absolutely recommend you to stay and enjoy relaxing days in Vasco’s villa.

Excellent villa in stunning area!

We were two families with a total of four adults and seven children (all under 7 years) staying in this villa for one week. The service and hospitality from the owner (Vasco) was great from the minute we contacted him (last minute booking) all the way to our check-out. Vasco met us upon arrival and gave us a lot of good tips and ideas about the area, sights and attractions, running tracks etc. As we were looking for a house "off the beaten track" this was perfect to us. It is located in a quiet villa area. You will need a car to get here and during your stay for shopping and sightseeing. The house has all the amenities we could ask for including a well equipped kitchen. The garden and area outside of the house is ideal also for kids and babies as the patio is fenced off from the pool area. The sunsets on the balconies are stunning. Great area for running/walking in a variety of tracks and roads. Situated in the natural park Arrabida it is only a short drive 5-10 minutes to get to great beaches as well. We spent a couple of days on the beach, one day in Azeitao and Sesimbra and drove to Lisboa and the west coast so for us the house was a great base for reaching out to a variety of destinations and attractions. Always great to return to the house in this quiet area for a relaxing afternoon and evening with dinner and sunset outdoor. I would not hesitate to reccommend this villa to anyone who prefer to stay away from the hectic touristy areas and want to experience the "real" Portugal and do not mind using the car to get to different attractions and sights.

Great villa with pool, stunning views!

The villa was really comfortable. It is a traditional Portuguese villa with all the necessary mod-cons to really relax and enjoy the holiday. The pool was great fun for both kids & adults and we really enjoyed having a game of pool in the games room in the evening. There are loads of areas outside where we could sit and relax and enjoy the stunning scenery, the fabulous local wine and the glorious sunset. There are plenty of supermarkets within 5 or 10 km. The house was a great base for us to visit the local towns like Sesimbra & Setubal. Lisbon is less than an hour away and we also travelled to Sintra and Fatima. Our flight arrived late & Vasco was very accommodating, waiting after midnight for us to arrive & coming to find us when we did get lost - thank you Vasco ? We had a fantastic holiday in this villa and would recommend it to everyone!

Fabulous!!

Myself and my friends had a fabulous holiday! The Villa was wonderful - it is very well equipped. Subsequently we had little desire to venture out but did enjoy Sesimbra with its gorgeous beach and lovely restaurants. We made the most of the what the Villa had to offer and the pool is super and the games room is ideal! The villa's location couldn't be better. It is very quiet, yet perfectly located for trips out to Sesimbra, Setubal, Lisbon and Sintra. There is a supermarche and Lidl conveniently nearby. The views from the villa are stunning and we enjoyed every evening relaxing from the many seating areas available. You're never without sun, yet there is always plenty of available shade when you need it. We received a warm and thoughtful welcome from Vasco (who very graciously rescued us when we got a bit lost!). We had a pleasant evening walk to Julio's cafe and enjoyed the "Porto" (Vasco I hope you get commission from all this 'Julios cafe' advertising ;-) I recommend this Villa!

Perfect holiday

The villa is located in absolutely beautiful place, the view from every corner was just amazing. Garden was beautiful with flowers and swimming pool and the villa itself very cozy, spacious, clean and well-equipped. The owners were incredible helpful, kind and really wanted us to enjoy our holiday in Portugal. Our children (aged 1 and 3) enjoyed the big garden. We were very delighted that the children were taken into consideration, garden was very safe and child-friendly, there were fence around the pool, toys, games etc. Lissabon was easily reached and there were many interesting places to visit nearby. We enjoyed the fantastic beaches and restaurants in Sesimbra. We can also recommend to visit vineyards nearby, especially José Maria da Fonseca, where we got very good and friendly service. We can highly recommend the house to everyone. We have rented villas before, but I'm sure that now it it difficult to find a better one.

Fantastic villa in an amazing location

This villa is in an absolutely fantastic location overlooking the National Park and close to some fantastic beaches. However the property itself is so good that if the weather is nice there is no need to leave as there are terraces on every aspect of the house so that you can follow the sun all day long. In the local area there is a great cafe run by Julio and his family and an award winning vineyard where you can get good wine at reasonable prices. I would recommend this property to anyone as it is so versatile.

Best of the best

The house has multiple stunning views; to the Atlantic Ocean, to a beautiful mountain landscape and to Lisbon City. At night the sun sets over the water and the lights from the capital become visible. The location of the house is perfect for shopping in Lisbon, going to the beach in Sesimbra, running or biking in the natural park area (Arrabida) and exploring different restaurants in the small cities nearby. Our children (age 2 and 7) loved the pool and spacious garden. We loved the Portuguese food, courtesy, friendly attitude and kindness. The owners of the house were absolutely fantastic. We have travelled far but never experienced such a warm welcome and service during a stay. We highly recommend this house !

Las puestas de sol preciosas. El entorno es muy bonito y tranquilo. Anti-estres, para no perdérselo. Además está cerca de Lisboa.

Traumhaftes Haus in traumhafter Lage

Wir hatten 8 wundervolle, sehr entspannte Tage in der Villa Arrabida. Sie liegt auf einem Hügel mit traumhaftem Blick, der Pool ist 14m lang und ideal zum schwimmen. Das Haus ist mit Liebe eingerichtet, sehr sauber und wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. In der Nähe gibt es verschiedene Strände, einige Sehenswürdigkeiten und Lissabon ist nur eine halbe Stunde entfernt. Da war für jeden etwas dabei. Die Vermieter sind extrem freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Haus ist sehr empfehlenswert und wir würden gerne noch einmal dort hinreisen. Auch das Klima war ein Traum

Great place!

We have been in “Villa Arrábida” for ten days in June and it was very nice. The house was incredible clean and well-maintained. We were a party of 5 adults with 2 teenage boys. Our boys could enjoy it very as much as we did. There were plenty of things that we don't usually find: snooker, tennis and football tables and more...The pool and the garden were fantastic and we could enjoy it even at night.The view from every place of the house, but especially from the pool, was astonishing. The house is located in a very quite and nice place and it is only 15 minutes by car to Sesimbra's beach which has wonderful sand and lots of great restaurants. We have tried many different ones and all of them were stunning. Lisbon was only half hour driving and Sintra with her beautiful palaces about 45 minutes. We had a wonderful holiday and would highly recommend this lovely villa as a holiday home.

Tres agreables vacances

Nous avons passé d'excellentes vacances dans la maison de Vasco. La propriété est encore plus belle que sur les photos. Une vue exceptionnelle sur l'ocean, les collines alentour et les lumieres de Lisbonne la nuit. La très grande piscine, le terrain de basket et le billard ont fait le bonheur de tous. La maison est spacieuse et lumineuse, et Vasco est un hôte attentionné.
