Two of our family homes — booked direct through me.
I don't hand you a listing link and wish you luck. These are homes I know — the light, the layout, the walk to the water, the spot where you'll actually want your morning coffee. Tell me your dates and who's coming, and I'll match you to the right one.

Description: "An hour north of Lisbon on Portugal's Silver Coast, this is the house you rent when you're travelling with people you actually like. Five bedrooms, five ensuite bathrooms — nobody negotiates shower schedules. A private outdoor pool, which is rarer in this pocket than you'd expect. The ocean is a four-minute walk and the Praia D'El Rey golf resort is five minutes by car."
Worth knowing: "It's not beachfront. It's a short, flat five-minute walk to the sand — which most guests end up preferring."
Nearby: "The walled town of Óbidos, surf at Peniche and Baleal, and Nazaré when the winter swell arrives. Lisbon airport is roughly an hour's drive."
