Villa Lime, a refined rural retreat in Carvalhal, Comporta

A Refined Countryside Sanctuary in Comporta

This villa is all about space and light, with a footprint that allows for both grand social gatherings and relaxation. The design pairs modern infrastructure with organic materials, and large glass apertures invite the Alentejo sun to play across the bright, textured interiors. The heart of the home features generous living and dining areas designed for entertaining, supported by a fully fitted kitchen that caters to serious gourmands.

Living extends naturally to the outdoors, where expansive terraces and landscaped gardens frame a swimming pool. Shaded pergolas offer the perfect setting for alfresco dinners that stretch late into the Alentejo night. The grounds are integrated into the countryside, providing a sense of total seclusion while remaining within earshot of the distant Atlantic swell.

What we love

What we love about Villa Lime is how effortlessly it hands you a slower pace, a private heated pool in a 7,000 m² fenced garden, terraces made for lingering, interiors with earthy tones and a fireplace that actually gets used when the Atlantic breeze rolls in. And when you do feel like venturing out, the Michelin-noted Sublime Comporta Beach Club is a one-kilometer walk through the dunes, close enough to be spontaneous, far enough to feel like a destination.

Around

Nestled in the heart of the Alentejo countryside, the villa is ideally positioned one kilometer from the sands of Carvalhal. The local area is a playground for design enthusiasts, with the nearby village offering a selection of interior boutiques and eateries like Sal and Cavalarica. A five-kilometer drive brings you to world-class golf, while the surrounding pine forests and rice paddies offer endless trails for exploration. While the beach is close enough for a vigorous walk or quick bike ride, a car is recommended for discovering the hidden lagoons of Melides or the historic charm of nearby Grândola.
