Guest Rooms
An ecological building of clay and wood with 3 double rooms and 1 family room that host up to 10 guests.
The thick walls keep away the warmth of hot days in summer and the cold in winter. The high, sloping wooden ceilings have good thermal insulation and lend a warm, welcoming aspect to the interiors.
morning bistro
Casa Presente’s morning bistro is seasonally open to the public, from June-September between 9:00AM and 12:30PM, and serves delicious local biological whole foods for breakfast.
During the rest of the year, this space is exclusively available to guests.
Location
Nestled within the Algarve region, on the edge of the Sudoeste Alentejano and Costa Vicentina Natural Park, our guesthouse sits among the dunes of Bordeira Beach—just 300 meters from the shore and 1 kilometer from the charming village of Carrapateira.
The Land
This is truly the other side of the Algarve, far from the madding crowds and rowdy tourists. At Casa Presente, peace prevails in a landscape rich in flora and fauna.
Whether you want to find a quiet spot to write and create, inspired by the beauty of the stunning Portuguese coastline, or a tranquil retreat where you can rest and be replenished, we look forward to welcoming you.
Casa Presente is a precious place. The location is spectacular, walking distance from incredible beaches and ocean cliffs and dunes. The guest house is quiet and clean, with a beautiful community space and gardens. Hosts are kind, precise, and committed to hospitality.
A magical location and a very special place.
It is located 5 minutes walk from the fantastic Bordeira beach and surrounded by beautiful unspoiled nature. Its location is ideal for relaxation and rest. The rooms at Casa Presente are very comfortable, impeccably clean, as are the bathrooms of each one. The buffet breakfast is based on simple, natural, and top quality foods. Very good. The owner, Carlin, very friendly and efficient, takes care of all the details and that everything is perfect.
Amazing place directly at the beautiful Carrapateira beach, very relaxing vibes, super friendly staff, clean beautiful rooms with sensitive aesthetic design, healthy breakfast... What's not to love? Absolutely recommend it if you're in the area.
A wonderful, small B&B with great attention to detail, outstanding service, very friendly hosts and 10/10 stars for the high-quality and lovingly prepared breakfast (à la carte). We arrived at night and were able to check in ourselves without any problems. The location by the sea is fantastic and also the ideal starting point for exploring other places. Value for money is unbeatable. We really loved it here. Thank you!
Perfect breakfast for a windy day: a savory buckwheat package, packed with organic veggies and lovely spreads, and a coconut sugar chai. A pro tip: add scrambled eggs for a gluten-free high protein delight. very nice service too .
We came to this beautiful place and were warmly welcomed. The lovingly designed garden and our room were a dream. The breakfast exceeded our expectations. Thank you very much for the wonderful stay!
Casa Presente is a sweet and comfortable place to land on the edge of Europe! I very much appreciated the Portuguese charm, the ability to walk right into town for a coffee or lunch, and the proximity to the long and sandy beach, a playground, as well as the dramatic coastal cliffs. It is right next to the ocean where many come to surf.
Absolutely stunning house and location! Super grateful to have spent a week at this place, at the vast and mighty shores of Carrapateira. Incredible place to recharge, contemplate, cycle, windsurf, etc. If you're looking for nice vegan/vegetarian restaurants, commerce and night life, the trendy village of Aljezur is only a 20 minute drive away.
We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful B&B. Carlin was a very kind host and made sure all our needs were met. The breakfast was absolutely delicious and with high quality ingredients, which we really appreciated. The location is amazing, very close to the beach and lovely hikes. Thank you!
This place is an hidden gem The vibe is great, it is like a retreat. Bed mattresses are very comfortable. Breakfast is delicious; high quality, organic, made with love. Carlin is a great host. Gratitude to you for the awesome experience!
This is a really special place to stay. Beautifully quiet, with a pleasant garden area, nice rooms and in a lovely location. Carrapteira is in a beautiful area of the coast. Very close to the coast and an interesting wetland area, and is close enough to Carrapteira town. The breakfast provided is really nice, with lots of choice, and lovely fruit and yoghurt.
