  • The ideal place to relax

    On the Costa Vicentina with a wonderful view over the valley

  • Monte do Sapeiro

    Monte do Sapeiro is our home, that we whish to share with you. This home has belonged to the same family for over 4 generations, but left abandoned for a number of years.

    Our passion for the Costa Vicentina, its diverse nature and dramatic seascape, is inspiration enough to attract you to the southwest. It offers peace and tranquility in a charming rural setting, where you will be received as one the family in our now fully restored and modernised portuguese home. 

    Monte do Sapeiro is a place full of heady scents, the smell of rockrose, rosemary and lavander. It is also a place of sounds, the sound of the sea, the croaking of frogs, the chorus of birds, the song of crickets and cicadas. This contrasts with the total silence of the night.

    Here, on the Costa Vicentina, where the earth meets the sea and under a starry sky, you are rewarded with a wonderful view over the valley. Monte do Sapeiro is the ideal place to rest.

    Monte do Sapeiro is just 5 minutes from the beaches of Carrapateira, Amado and Bordeira, some of the most beautiful beaches of the Costa Vicentina and on one of trails of the Rota Vicentina.
