Monte das Buganvílias – Peace, Nature and Stars near Zambujeira do Mar
Palmeira House

Comfortable detached house with private terrace and garden, ideal for families or guests looking for peace and quiet.

The house has two bedrooms:
one bedroom with a double bed and space for a baby cot.
one bedroom with two single beds.

There are two bathrooms, both with shower.

Living room and dining area in open space with kitchenette, fully equipped with fridge, coffee machine, toaster and basic utensils.

The living room has direct access to the private terrace, perfect for outdoor meals or relaxing in the garden.

The house is surrounded by its own private garden, with space to sit, read or enjoy the silence of the countryside.

Ideal for couples, families or guests who want to enjoy nature, calm and simple life.

Monte das Buganvílias is a peaceful place where you can always see the stars and sometimes hear the sea.
The property is located on 5 hectares of private land, surrounded by nature and silence, yet only 10 minutes by car from shops, restaurants and the village of Zambujeira do Mar.

In the heart of the beautiful Parque Natural do Sudoeste Alentejano e Costa Vicentina, this is a perfect place for those looking for rest, family time and contact with nature.

The surroundings are full of trees, flowers and birds, creating a calm and relaxing atmosphere.

Because we are in a rural area inside the Natural Park, the Wi-Fi connection may be slower than in the city.
Here life moves at a different rhythm.
It is a good place to disconnect, read a book, watch the sky full of stars, listen to the birds, or simply enjoy the silence and nature around you.
Ideal for families, couples or guests looking for peace and quiet.

The essence of the Quinta is a small, intimate holiday retreat for relaxation.

The property has several houses, all with privacy, surrounded by gardens, trees and flowers.

You will wake up with the sound of birds:
swallows, pigeons, blackbirds, sparrows and sometimes storks flying slowly towards the cliffs.

Do not forget your binoculars.

Inside the houses you will find copies of paintings by
Picasso, Kandinsky and Miró, from an old collection belonging to the owners.

Eating indoors or outside on the terrace, around a wooden table in the shade of the old bougainvillea, is always a pleasure.

In season, we offer organic vegetables and herbs from our garden, which are very appreciated by our guests.

    If you love nature, and enjoy peace and quiet, this is the place for you. Isabel is a wonderful host and provides great tips and suggestions for visiting the local area. Not far from the wonderful beaches and local restaurants. The accommodation is very spacious and authentic, we loved our stay there.

    This is a beautiful house, with all the amenities you could need and little extras that make the stay wonderful. On the outside, you have peaceful and beautiful gardens and you are only 5 minutes drive from the beaches of Alentejo. Zambujiera itself has everything you might need from a holiday village. The hosts were super responsive and helpful. We were very happy

    Isabel and her daughter are very nice hosts and very uncomplicated. It is a really nice house and garden with comfortable space to store everything. Located in the middle of nowhere, so that you always need to go by car, but beautiful beaches are just a few car minutes away.

    Our family enjoyed our stay in this quiet and peaceful cottage. Everything was clean and well maintained, the beaches and village are close by but you would struggle without a car. The hosts were so friendly and obliging but maintained their distance to allow for peace and quiet. After a day at the beach the outside BBQ is always a plus for cooking .. to be washed down with some local beverages ! We would recommend this property highly.

    We stayed with our two kids (12 and 15) for nearly two weeks at Isabels charming house. And we enjoyed the stay very much. Isabel and her daughter had been very nice and helpful and supported us whenever needed. The house is equipped with everything you might need and has a very good standard. The garden around the house is lovely to relax and just let the time go by. The domicile is very close to different wonderful beaches (5 to 10 minutes by car). And Zambujera do Mar is absolutely worth visiting it. Do not miss the unique Paderia in the morning (wondeful bread and buns).

    We had a lovely stay at Isabelle Otero's lovely garden villa. We had been on a hectic European trip and wanted to have some peace and quiet for a few days. This is exactly what we found at Isabelle's lovely cottage. It is surrounded by a beautiful garden. Although it was just mid March when we were there, early flowers were already blooming and birds were chirping. The town and the beach are a short drive away and there are nice walkways nearby for an evening walk.

    A perfect place to relax: quiet and pretty, but very close to the village and the coast. Several wonderful beaches nearby, great restaurants in the village. And Isabel is a lovely host!

    we have had a wonderful week in your nice cottage, well equipped and stylish. The beds are very good and the place is so silent! You only hear birds! The garden is very nice too, with beautiful flowers and trees. The Atlantic Coast with stunning beaches is nearby, only 10 minutes by car on gravel roads. Isabel and Madelon, thank you very much for everything and give a hug to Coffee! Greetings from Amsterdam. Roland,Annemarie, Rob,Sjoukje

    Everything you could ask for in a place to stay. Lovely clean house and very comfortable. Had a woodburning stove for chillier nights and lots of TV channels. The bed was very comfortable and woke to birdsong outside. The house had its own private, peaceful garden with sunloungers and outdoor seating for meals in the sunshine. There was also a grill/BBQ. Beautiful beaches nearby with stunning coastline and great supermarket in the nearby town. The owner Isabel, has created her own piece of paradise in this amazing corner of Portugal, and we are so happy she so kindly shared it with us. Will definitely come back. Highly recommend. Thank you, Isabel!

    We stayed one week in 'casa da palmeira' at 'Monte das buganvilias'. Very clean, cosy and very tasteful. Good heating for the Winter nights. Isabel, the host, took very well care of us. We could use the bicycles to visit this magnificent coast. For who likes to stay in a quiet environment close to the beaches with no mass tourism and a lot of nature. This was our first experience at the Costa Vicentina, but for shore not the last one. Joost and Conny
