Comporta, Portugal
Easygoing Luxury on the Alentejo Coast
Luxurious indoor-outdoor living across multiple stylish structures is the rule at Casa dos Brejos, an elegant home complex in the picturesque Alentejo coastal area of Comporta. Named for the wetlands that surround it, this house features unique shaded breezeways and ceilings in the spirit of Japanese screens, giving it an airy, beachy, yet entirely upscale feeling.
Distinguished by its stylish, screen-like ceilings and designer wood blind structures wrapping around its central glass walls, this villa for rent in Portugal covers multiple open volumes. The cool, contemporary design gives the home its unique styling, a breezy aesthetic that makes it feel only semi enclosed, created to blur the boundaries between indoor and outdoor living. A multi-structure design also allows residents to spread out and unwind in contemporary, open-plan common areas, for an overall feeling that’s breezy and beachy, built for easygoing luxury.
The common areas are Casa dos Brejos’s most notable—spacious, artistically furnished, and contemporary. An eye-catching steel periscope of a fireplace occupies the living/dining area, which also features a lower-level den with built-in banco seating. The wood blinds or shade screens extend across the glass walls on all sides of the room. There’s a dramatic ebony kitchen—fully equipped for entertaining a crowd—that features not only black countertops and cabinets, but also a one-of-a-kind black tiled ceiling.
This villa for rent in Portugal has six bedrooms and bathrooms which are brighter and more conventional. White walls are hung with colorful artworks, and sliding doors to the patio are included in every bedroom, allowing for access to the palm-lined pool below the house.
AROUND
The liveliest town of Portugal’s wild Alentejo coastal region, Comporta is at once rural and coastal. Visitors to the area delight in the rustic, terracotta-toned sandy coastline that the New York Times recently dubbed “among Europe’s last unspoiled beaches.” Inland, wetlands hold rice paddies, and drier highlands are dotted with cork oak stands and orange groves and striped with vineyards.
The village of Comporta has become a favorite destination of European creatives and has an upscale boho vibe, with art galleries, cocktail bars, and artisanal shops abundant along its whitewashed streets.
