THE REGION
Set on a curving turquoise bay just 40 km south of Lisbon, Sesimbra is both an attractive fishing town and a popular tourist resort within easy reach of the capital. Sesimbra is one of the finest beach resorts in Portugal. It is adored by the Portuguese who flock to the region for their holidays, drawn by the pristine beached, relaxed atmosphere and outstanding seafood restaurants.
Near Sesimbra, there are the beaches of the Arrábida Natural Park, which are considered among the most beautiful beaches in Portugal. The most famous one is Praia do Figueirinha, a long sandy shore kissed by calm and crystalline waters.
The outstanding beaches and tourist attractions make Sesimbra an enjoyable family holiday. Around the region, there is much to visit, like Cabo Espichel headland or a scenic drive through the Arrabida hills and a visit to the paradise beaches of the Portinho de Arrabida.
ABOUT THE LISBON COAST
The Lisbon Coast is a sensational stretch of golden beaches, wave-lashed cliffs and vibrant seaside towns – but there's more to the Atlantic coastline than that. Delve beneath the surface to discover hidden coves, family-owned seafood restaurants and pristine natural parks.
The coast around Lisbon provides an easy, breezy escape from the capital, whose proximity has made it the stomping ground of kings for the last 1,000 years. In summer, Lisboistas stream into elegant Comporta and Cascais to escape the heat of the city; year-round, surfers hang loose on the coast, waiting for the rollers to crash down on the sand.
But while you're enjoying one of our fantastic villas on Lisbon Coast, you may well want to take some time out from all that sun worship to explore everything else the region has to offer – so we've put together this handy travel guide to give you a little help and inspiration!

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesKids will relish the opportunity to stay at Casa da Fontal. The large lawned garden provides plenty of space to run around and play - a game of hide and seek will definitely be in order! For those who love sports, the putting green provides the chance to practise your putting without even leaving the villa. And with a golf course just a short drive away, this is the perfect way to hone in your skills before heading out on the course.
The swimming pool is sure to be a hit with the whole family and will provide hours of entertainment for the kids (and kids at heart). With sun loungers lining the pool, adults can keep a quiet eye on the kids in the pool from the comfort of a lounger.
When its time to head to bed, there are six bedrooms to choose from. Any older kids will love having their own bedroom to unwind in peace and quiet, even better if it's in a double bed! The twin bedroom is perfect for younger siblings or friends to share, and the extra bed that can be added to this room will make it feel like a sleepover!
Beyond the villa, the Praia do California is less than a 15-minute drive away and is surrounded by several bars and restaurants that make it an easy day out from the villa. A little further out and you villa reach the Serra da Arrábida that will take you along fantastic hiking trails and stunning views over the Sado estuary.
