Casa Ruiva is my weekend, holiday, and retreat home when I escape from Lisbon.
I live 45 minutes away, in Lisbon, and I am passionate about travel and architecture — the result is this house, full of soul and personality.
At Casa Ruiva, you will find a village house decorated in an original Mediterranean style with natural, locally sourced materials. I love beautiful, cozy homes with character.
Casa Ruiva consists of the main house, the atelier, and a fantastic garden with a pool (2.70m wide and 4.50m long)— all exclusively for the guests.
In the main house, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen, a dining room, a living room, a complete bathroom with a shower, a small bedroom with two single beds (one is a bunk bed, 1.70m in length, ideal for children), and the master bedroom on the first floor with a double bed and stunning views of the vineyards and the century-old chapel of our neighbor’s estate.
The Atelier, full of charm, features a cozy suite with a double bed and a small bathroom. Every booking, regardless of the number of guests, guarantees exclusive access to the house and the garden.
The garden, in addition to 300m² of lawn, fruit trees, and inspiring little shrines, has an 80m² sun-drenched deck (shielded from the wind — essential when it's windy at the beach) with a pool, an outdoor dining table with six chairs, a sun umbrella, and canvas chairs for lounging in the sun.
The scent of fruit and flowers is ever-present... You’ll find regional fruit trees (pears, peaches, apples, lemons, and loquats) and seven-meter-tall bamboo.
At Casa Ruiva, I hope you’ll enjoy a memorable holiday in a home unlike the usual accommodations found on booking platforms — a lived-in, authentic house unafraid to showcase its old and rustic origins!
I would love to welcome you, show you the house, and share tips and suggestions about attractions and places in the region!
