Built during the turn of the 20th century and now beautifully restored, Luxury Sea House is a red beacon located at the heart of Armação de Pêra. With a roof terrace built so you can hear the townsfolk sing songs dedicated to local fishermen, elegant bedrooms, and opulent living areas, every corner of this property feels impressive.

The property has become a famous landmark along the coast, now listed as a historical building. The architecture has Moorish influences and elegant homages to the region’s rich cultural history. As you step inside, the interiors were inspired by the Belle Époque era emerging in the South of France. Unique wooden floors, antique chandeliers and a spectacular staircase will draw your attention, with stylish furnishings and carefully thought-out décor to complement the foundations that have been carefully restored and maintained for years.

A family summer home for almost 80 years, the luxury and style of the property could never get in the way of the homely, welcoming atmosphere. Whether you are travelling with family or friends, the living spaces encourage intimacy and make your time together feel as special as you could imagine.

In the main house, the large open kitchen opens into a living and dining area, as well as a large terracotta terrace that makes the most of the spectacular seafront setting. The ceilings are adorned with sculpted grape vines in tribute to vines that used to thrive in front of the villa itself. The restored staircase leads the way to two ensuite bedrooms and a living room, with more stunning sea views providing an elegant backdrop to every room. A secret door leads to a further rooftop terrace that, many years ago, the owner built to hear the townsfolk sing songs dedicated to local fishermen at the church of “A Nossa Senhora dos Navegantes.”

In front of the property, there is an intimate guest house, which reimagines some charm and character from the main house with a contemporary twist. Inside, there is a duplex suite with a living room and terrace downstairs and an ensuite bedroom upstairs, as well as a further self-contained studio with a bedroom, shower room and balcony. Perfect for older children or grandparents looking for their own space.

Outside, the terrace has been built into the seawall, with it feeling as though the waves are knocking at the back door. With direct access to the beach and the historical town centre, Luxury Sea House offers both a retreat and a chance to immerse yourself in the hustle and bustle of the town.

What you should know

  • The villa is located directly on the seafront, within walking distance of some restaurants, so you may hear some noise from them
  • The area is relatively steep and may not be suitable for some guests to travel on foot, so a car may be helpful
  • There is a main house with two bedrooms and a separate guest house with another two
  • Although this property has no pool, there are plans to build one in the future, but you still have the beach on your doorstep!
