About this home
Atlantic Lodge was designed by a renowned architecture practice to do one thing perfectly: frame the sea. The interiors stay relaxed and low-key so the panoramic Atlantic views keep the leading role.
Six bedrooms sleep twelve. There is a pool in the garden, a fireplace for misty mornings, board games for slow evenings, and Praia Mariana — the best surf beach in town — a few steps downhill.
Afife is the Minho coast at its wildest: hidden waterfalls and mountain trails inland, white sand and serious waves out front.

Juste quelques désagréments sur une partie du mobilier.d extérieur qui est aussi en nombre insuffisant.

We had a lovely family stay. Arrival was a little stressful as we were given the wrong access code, but after phoning the host it was sorted within about 15 minutes. Once inside, we were greeted with wine, biscuits, juice and coffee, which was such a thoughtful touch after travelling.
The house itself is great — comfortable bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen and everything we needed for a relaxed stay. The area is peaceful with beautiful Camino walking trails and long, sandy, almost‑empty beach
