It is a wonderful place and a strategic point where you can simply stay and enjoy or enjoy getting to know the whole country.

Just what our family needed
This was the perfect stay for our family. 6 of us stayed in this house and the other two were just a 2 minute walk away. We had all of our meals together at this house and it was ideal. Both the inside and outside tables fit us all. The kitchen had all the tools and appliances needed for us to prepare and cook every meal. The beach is right in front and is fantastic but do be careful not to swim at high tide; the waves are big and rough. The beach itself is long and so clean. Loved the deck up top! We had plans to explore inland but the house, the small town and the weather encouraged us to never leave! Costa de Lavos is pretty small but the two mini-mercados are well stocked and fresh bread is available 6 days a week and just a 5 minute walk away. A great stay!

What an amazing place to stay!
Casa na Areia is really as good as the photos. From a beautiful, light filled house, you hop over the wall and you are on the beach. All the rooms over onto a spacious patio area and there is a upstairs terrace as a bonus. The kitchen is very well equipped and lots of storage space throughout the house. Helena is a very warm, welcoming host and was always available for us if we had any questions. There is a lovely local restaurant around the corner which is very inexpensive. The beach is fantastic but with small kids you will need to wander a bit further down from the house for safe swimming. Overall, if you are looking for a great beach house in a fantastic location..look no further!

Beautiful beach home!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the beach home of Carlos and Helena. Spotlessly clean and with everything needed to enjoy a vacation, it is an excellent choice. Day trips to nearby cities were easy access from the beach home given the central location. Highly recommend.

A wonderful, warm and welcoming stay to a fabulous beach house located at Costa de Lavos
Hi, we are 5 Australians who have just enjoyed Helena and Carlos' beach house. The location is superb, directly on the foreshore and the views are uninterrupted. The beach house has 3 outdoor spaces to enjoy and relax and the fitout is a fully functioning home. Casa na Areia has all household equipment, utensils and as advertised the photos are 100 percent the truth. You will love to explore the small village of Costa de Lavos where the beach house is located. Do visit the local female butcher. So helpful and very good meat. Also do enjoy the daily the fishermen's boats morning and night and watch the local excitement of that day's catch being unloaded. Of course you will need a car to stay at this beach house and from this location we explored local cities such as Aveiro, Coimbra, Nazarre and Obidos. It was so nice to come home after a day trip and prepare a feast each night (great kitchen) and to enjoy the terrace and the sound of the Atlantic Ocean as we slept. Helena and Carlos are very efficient and so hospitable. Nothing is too much trouble for them to organise, including a welcome meal cooked by a local lady and a GPS address that Helena sent us to find the house. The beach house is immaculately clean and so comfortable. Thank you sincerely Helena and Carlos for the enjoyment that you gave us. Suzie, Charmaine, Kerry, Kelly and Tommy. June 2018

Stunning Property
With the ever changing Atlantic Ocean and the sand beachs and wildflower covered dunes as your daily vista, this property is Stunning! Helena and Carlos were very easy to communicate with prior to our arrival and Helena welcomed us with fresh fruit from her garden and sweets from her business. The house is fully equipped with absolutely everything needed for a pleasant stay. It is hard to imagine, but the property is even more stunning than the pictures on the listing indicate. This is a perfect place to use as home base. We travelled the areas around and watched the sun sink into the Ocean every evening, it was magical and enchanting. In the village of Costa da Lavos we were made to feel welcome by the locals even with our limited language skills. Highly Recommend this beautiful house and it is definitely on our Bucket List of places to revisit.

Beautiful House right on a perfect beach perfect for a relaxing break.
My friends and I stayed in this beautiful house for 3 days to relax after a few days in Porto. Helena was lovely and helped us with everything we needed! We spent our time relaxing on the beach and having wonderful barbecues, enjoying the outdoor space that the house offers. There were 4 of us which was perfect for the 4 bedrooms but I think the house would also be perfect for 3 couples, a family or even 2 families with children! There was lots to do at the villa and there was everything you could need. Fig du Foz was a short drive away, as was a number of other beaches. We ate in the local restaurant on the last day which was 10euros for a drink and 4 courses which was very good value. There is also a snack/drinks bar close by. If you are into golf, there is a nice 9 hole course about 30-40 minutes away which we enjoyed. I would definitely recommend staying at this lovely house if you are looking for a relax by the beach. Thanks you very much for your lovely hospitality! Andrew and friends.

Wundervolle und authentische Ferienunterkunft
Wir (4 Erwachsene und ein Kind) haben hier unseren Sommerurlaub verbracht und den Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Das Haus mit seiner unmittelbaren Strandlage ist einfach ein Traum. Der Kontakt mit Helena und Luis gestaltete sich unkompliziert und nett. Der Ort selbst, ein kleines Fischerdorf, ist sehr authentisch und wenig touristisch, hat aber alles, was man für einen erholsamen Urlaub braucht, Sonne, Strand, Meer, einen Bäcker, einen Mini-Mercado, gute Restaurants und eine Bar. Der Strand ist unsagbar lang und war selbst in der Hochsaison an heißen Tagen nicht überbelegt. Aufgrund der Safe Guards war Baden auch bei stärkerem Wellengang jederzeit gut möglich. Wir haben die Zeit wirklich sehr genossen und können uns gut vorstellen, noch einmal wiederzukommen.

Beautiful house in a lovely neighborhood
We had a great stay at this place which is very nice because of the house itself as well as its fantastic location. Only a hop over the wall and you are on the beach, you are part of a tranquil genuine portuguese village with a mini-mercado and a few cafés and restaurants. Figuera da Foz as a bigger town is only about 10 km away. And within about one hour car drive you get to Coimbra, Nazaré and a beautiful natural park area, for example. The holiday home makes you feel comfortable very quickly, it is very airy, lovely decorated and pretty well equipped. There is a lot of room inside and you have got three different places to stay outside (patios and terraces). Helena and Luis who manage the property are very kind and helpful. Thanks a lot for letting us stay at your house, we are already making plans when to come back again.

Amazing beach relaxation retreat
We cannot say enough positive things about the home without running out of space. Stunning location next to the sea with a charming beach cottage atmosphere. In November, beaches were fairly empty which allowed the children to roam free and make lots of noise. Three yummy restaurants, a cafe with fresh bread, a mini grocery store, a inexpensive hair salon (5€ hair cuts for children under 10) and a souviner shop all within a few minutes walk. Hope to return one day!
