Steven (USA - Oct'15): "A great little guest house. Sadly, as I went off-season the weather didn't co-operate and I couldn't use the pool and there were no other guests to interact with. Luis was incredibly helpful before, during and after my stay, including taking pictures for my blog when my camera was stolen. A good experience in a fascinating area of Portugal."

 

Raquel + Alberto (ESP - Ago'15): "Casa perfecta, recomendable 100%."

 

Daniela + Miguel (PT - Ago'15): "Foi a primeira vez que estivemos num espaço com este conceito e adorámos. A casa é muito agradável, transmite muita calma e tranquilidade e todos os espaços foram pensados ao detalhe. Sem dúvida que queremos e vamos voltar!! O Luís é um "super-anfitrião" e fomos muito bem recebidos! Muito obrigado."

 

Petra (GER - Aug'15): "I felt very well. The apartment is very nice and well staffed, the host is very welcoming. Getting to the beach by bike takes you around 30 min."

 

Cyrille + Cédric (FRA - Jul'15): "Pour notre premier séjour découverte du Portugal, tout a été parfait! Le temps, la région splendide, une maison d'hôte agréable, et des hôtes très accueillante. Nous avons aussi beaucoup apprécié la location de voiture par votre intermédiaire avec la gestion des transferts. Merci encore. A bientôt."

 

Rute + José (PT - Jul'15): "É a segunda vez que passamos 7 dias maravilhosos nesta casa linda, tranquila e vamos com a sensação de que carregámos as baterias para o ano inteiro. Realço o bom gosto em tudo, a higiene e como não podia faltar a simpatia como somos recebidos. Desejamos muitas felicidades para o futuro. Obrigado por tudo."

 

Cátia + Gonçalo (PT - Jul'15): "Um sítio bastante calmo e tranquilo. Conseguimos sentir uma paz única! Casa extremamente bem decorada, muito bem equipada, com uma piscina espectacular. Fomos muito bem recebidos pelos donos da casa! Muito simpáticos e acolhedores. Todos os pormenores da decoração são fantásticos, desde as fotografias às cores das paredes, ao mobiliário e à iluminação noturna da piscina. Sugestões: Reorganizar a entrada de cima de forma a criar 1 estacionamento para cada quarto. Ter um animal de estimação a habitar e a circular pelo jardim e áreas comuns! Foi uma experiência única. Gostámos muito. Queremos e vamos voltar!. Obrigado."

Nota: Temos uma gatinha, a Bolota, mas por ser muito tímida, difilcilmente se deixa avistar nas suas deambulações pelo jardim. Ainda bem que não entra nos espaços comuns, pois poderia desagradar a alguns hóspedes e há sempre o problema de possíveis alergias. Quanto ao estacionamento, será difícil criar espaço para 5 automóveis (2 nossos e 3 dos hóspedes), felizmente nunca houve problemas com o estacionamento no exterior.

 

Ana + Miguel (PT - Jun'15): "É uma casa bastante agradável e acolhedora, bem organizada. É um espaço tranquilo com uma vista fantástica. Ideal para carregar baterias. Os donos são simpáticos e bastante sociáveis com os hóspedes. Adorámos esta experiência, pois foi a primeira vez que estivemos num espaço com estas caracterísitcas. Esperamos voltar a repetir esta maravilhosa experiência."

 

Victor + Antonio (ESP - Jun'15): "Hemos pasado unos días muy agradables. De esta casa nos gusta todo. La piscína es perfecta. El paisage que se ve desde la piscina maravillosa. El diseño de la casa, sensacional. Es un sítío muy tranquilo, la habitacíon cómoda, las estancias comunes muy agradables. Y, desde luego, lo mejor de todo, la amabilidad de los dueños e haber convivido con huéspedes estupendos, de los que, ahora, somos amigos. Muito obrigado."

 

Cindy + Jan (BEL - Jun'15): "Supermooi poolhouse, fantastisch zwembad, adembenemende ligging en niet ver van Lissabon stad, super relaxed, zeer charmante Luis, onvergetelijke buren! Mooie combinatie tussen privékamer en gemeenschappelijke living en keuken. Dit was een reis die we onmiddellijk willen overdoen! Bedankt Luis voor een onvergetelijke vakantie! Zeker tot een volgende keer!" / "Luis & Antonio, We had a great time in your place! It's a very beautiful house in a nice environment. The weather wasn't very good but we had very nice neighbours also from Belgium and we had a great time together! Thank you Luis for being so kind. We look forward to come back to this beautiful place! Cindy & Jan"

 

Wolfgang (GER - Mai'15): "Sehr angenehm zum Ausspannen. Die Gastgeber sehr hilfebereit. A great place for relaxing!"

 

Daniel + Vincent (FRA - Mai'15): "Nous rentrons hier d'un séjour au Portugal qui s'est merveilleusement bien déroulé. La maison de LUIS et ANTONIO nous a plu à maints égards, sa propreté, sa décoration et sa pièce à vivre que nous avons partagée avec les autres clients. La piscine et le petit jardin sont des" plus" qu'il ne faut pas négliger surtout par de températures avoisinant les 32 degrés. Les odeurs de pins et des eucaliptus provenant des collines environnantes sont à ravir. Les super belles plages s'étalant sur des dizaines de KMS ne sont qu'à 10 Mns en voiture. Les commerces sont aussi tout proche ..... bref, une location à recommander pour une remise en forme assurée. OBRIGADO!"

 

Julien (FRA - Mai'15): "Maison très agréable proche de belles plages. La chambre est confortable avec vue sur une belle piscine."

 

Claudie + Pierre-Yves (FRA - Nov'14): "Accueil très sympa. Logement bien situé pour pouvoir visiter Lisbonne et sa région. Avons passé un trés agréable séjour malgré la pluie. Appartement trés calme, joliment décoré et très bien équipé. Jolie région, mais séjour très court pour tout visiter. Tranquilité, intimité, tout pour recharger ses batteries. Peut-être que nous reviendrons."

 

Véronique + Philippe (FRA - Sep'14): "Nous avons aimés l'écoute et l'attention de Luis à notre égard, la propreté du gîte, le changement des serviettes de toilette en milieu de semaine, les différents café à l'intention des clients, la superbe maison, la piscine avec sont éclairage la nuit et la liberté d'être nus, sans oublier les massages de Luis. Encore bravo pour vos prestations, un endroit magique à conseiller au naturiste 10 sur 10. Nous vous embrassons, Véro et Phil"

 

António + Gonçalo (PT - Ago'14): "Um espaço 5 estrelas para passar uns dias magníficos. Tudo impecável. Gostámos muito e vamos repetir de certeza."

 

Ido + Amit (ISR - Aug'14): "Pool Houses is the perfect place to catch some fun in the sun. The house is spectacular, the pool is inviting and refreshing, and the atmosphere is just right - sexy, yet completely free and warm. The hosts are incredibly sweet, and you have to go for their massage at least once, it's the best one you'll have in a while. We'll definitely come back when we're in Portugal."

 

Yves (NL - Aug'14): "I had a wonderful time at Pool Houses. Pool Houses has a very relaxed atmosphere. The rooms are nice and clean. There is enough privacy and nudism is the dresscode. Luis and Antonio are very good hosts and they have a high standard of services. It is easy to have a chat with them or the other guys in or around the swimming pool. The hosts were able to pick me up from and bring me to the airport for a reasonable fee. It takes usually about 45 minutes. I rented a good scooter via Pool Houses to go to the beaches: The famous Costa da Caparica number 19 (30 minutes) or the smaller Moinho do Baixo (15 minutes). You can do your shopping everywhere and their are lots of ATM's. I recommend this relaxing place and love to come back and drink some wine with Luis and Antonio near the pool."

 

Carlos (ESP - Aug'14): "I stayed as a guest of Antonio and Luis for a few days last summer. It was my first time staying in a nudist hotel, which I found totally liberating and relaxing. The facilities are just wonderful, starting with a beautiful pool, masses of space to relax and the wonderful views and silence of the countryside. Lovely to see the goats walk by every morning and to enjoy the first rays of sun reading on a deckchair. Luis and Antonio organized my pick up from the airport and my car rental, all of which was much appreciated. They were first class hosts. I also had a couple of wonderful massages during my stay. I made the most of my days by visiting local villages and beaches. I honestly hope to go back soon just to relax for a few days."

 

Rudolfo + Françoise (FRA - Aug'14): "Luís et António sont des hôtes discrets et prévenants. La maison est magnifique. La chambre est douillette et confortable. La piscine est très agréable. La vue depuis la colline sur la campagne est reposante, avec la mer au loin. A tester absolument: les massages de Luís qui sont puissants et respectueux. Ma compagne et moi, nous nous sommes sentis respectés. La nudité dans ces conditions est vraiment naturelle, d'autant plus qu'il n'y a pas de vis-à-vis. Merci beaucoup pour cet agréable séjour. J'ai envie de revenir dès que possible."

 

Anette + Mats (SWE - Jul'14):  "Back again for the second time and it's still perfect! We were so relaxed after staying 8 days in this paradise! When you have a car it's easy to drive in to Lisbon for sightseeing or shopping and to the beaches all around. You can also go to Sesimbra for great fish. If you just feel like staying in and cooking your own meal you can do that to. Luis is a great massage therapist and helped me a lot with my bad back! Make sure you have a massage when staying here. The place has everything you need and is clean and cozy. It's wonderful to go for a swim in the pool at midnight when it's all lit up. When we go back to Portugal the next time we are sure to stay here! Fabulous place and wonderful hosts!"

 

Claire + Julia (GER - Jul'14): "The perfect place to really relax! Thanks to Luis and Antonio's kind and welcoming treatment, we felt very comfortable right from the beginning. The apartment is super nice and clean and the pool is just wonderful. We'd come back any minute!"

 

Olivier + Amélie (FRA - JUL'14): "Un très bon séjour. L'accueil, le lieu, la piscine, les conseils, les massages... tout était parfait. Nous vous recommandons vivement ce lieu et les hôtes Luis & Antonio."

 

João + Francisco (PT - Jun'14): "Um espaço intimista de paz e magia, convidativo para bronzear, nadar, relaxar com boas massagens, duas vertentes campo e praia e uns anfitriões 5 ***** , é impossível não resistir a querer mais!"

 

Anette + Mats (SWE - Jun'14): "A fantastic place with everything you need. Sunbath by the pool, go for a swim, have a snack in the kitchen. The beds are very comfortable and the rooms are great. The view is beautiful. Luis is a great masseur so don't miss the opportunity to get a massage! The hosts are such wonderful and nice people you will feel so welcome! For great fish and seafood go to "O Carlos" in Meco or down to Sesimbra by the beach. You will need a car for that or rent bikes from Antonio and Luis. We loved it here and we will be back!"

 

John (PT - Mai'14): "Gostei muito de aí estar, do silêncio, do espaço e mesmo do lugar. Estão de parabéns, quando puder gostaria de repetir. Abraços aos dois!"

 

Sandrine + Mirko (CH - May'14): "Very beautifull, relaxed and cosy room! Luis received us very kindly and made our stay a magical moment, especially with the lights on the pool! The room has many of amenities (hairdryer, fridge, dishes, TV, etc...). The bed is very comfortable. The place is very calm to have a relaxing holiday. Access to several beautiful beaches at few km only. Highly recommended. Thank you again for your hospitality. We hope to come back soon."

 

Tiago (FRA - May'14): "Une très belle expérience! Luis et Antonio sont des hôtes chaleureux et sympathiques; dès votre arrivée ils vous font visiter les lieux et vous mettent à l'aise. Les photos présentes sur leur annonce ne font d'ailleurs pas justice au bon goût de la Pool Houses: tout est bien décoré et propre! La piscine est d'ailleurs un point fort, toujours propre et très jolie. Le tout dans un cadre très calme et reposant. Si ce n'était pas assez, Luis et Antonio sont aux petits soins pour leurs guests: quelques produits à dispositions dans la kitchenette gratuitement, une grande collection de dvd mise à disposition, serviette pour la piscine, possibilité de prendre ses repas dehors au soleil... Le site dispose même d'un SPA avec la possibilité de se faire masser. En conclusion, ce fût plus qu'un agréable séjour, je recommande vivement à tous ceux qui pourraient hésiter de réserver sans craintes.

A great experience! Luis and Antonio are very welcoming and nice hosts; as soon as you arrive, they give you a tour of the house and put you at ease. The actual photos don't even begin to show how cute the Pool Houses really is: everything is tastefully decorated and spotless! The pool is one of the good points of the house, very clean and nice. Add to that a very calm and relaxing place and you'll get the Pool Houses of Luis and Antonio. As if it wasn't enough, Luis and Antonio are very caring people: some products are available in the kitchenette for free as a kind gesture, a big collection of dvd that they gladly share with you, a towel for the pool, and you can also take your meals outside while enjoying the sun... Pool Houses also has a SPA where you can get massages. In conclusion, it was more than an enjoyable staying, I can only recommend you to book at Luis and Antonio's."

 

Ksenia + Chris (FRA - May'14): "We have spent a wonderful time in Portugal. The apartment was very clean and functional. The host very kind and ready to help in case of need. A place to recommend if you are looking for something quiet not far from the Atlantic coast and Lisbon. Nearest to Sesimbra where you can find more restaurants and the best sea food."

 

Nino + Matej (SLO - May'14): "We spent a beautiful time in Pool Houses’ apartment. The room, pool and all house environments were clean, room’s bright colors makes you more relax and calm. Antonio and Luis are nice hosts and they care about your stay and welfare with professional and very good attitude. I also had a massage and it was very professional. Luis and Antonio we will be back for sure… :) It is a place to rest your soul and body..."

 

Christelle + François (FRA - Oct'13): "Luís et António sont des propriétaires chaleureux, aimables, serviable, arrangeants, ponctuels! L'appartement est très joli et très propre. Possibilité de faire un petit feu de la cheminée en hiver ou de se baigner dans la piscine en été. Piscine équipée d'un SPA, d'une petite cascade et d'une douche. Tout le monde y trouvera son compte. Séances de massages relaxants pour la détente, salle de sport à disposition, prêts gratuits de DVD dans plusieurs langues. Machine à café Nespresso à disposition pour bien commencer la journée. Possibilité de garer la voiture dans la cour. Tout était parfait!!! Nous comptons y retourner pour un plus long séjour. Merci Luís et merci António."

 

Mélanie + Fabrice (FRA - Aug'13): "Parfait! Parfait! Parfait! Antonio et Luis sont adorables, aux petits soins pour vous offrir un séjour agréable. Que ce soit avant notre arrivée pour des renseignements (location de voiture, itinéraire, informations, conseils...) et pendant notre séjour (prêt de DVD, possibilités de massage, accueil chaleureux amical et tellement discret à la fois). Nous avons choisi de séjourner ici plutôt qu'à Lisbonne, indispensable de louer une voiture mais les trajets sont simples et directs pour découvrir la région (Troia, Setubal, Lisbonne) emplacement idéal au calme. Concernant le studio parfait petit nid équipe au mieux attention il n y a pas de cuisine mais on peut aisément se faire des petits repas d'été froids. Le top la piscine, le calme, la nature et des hôtes formidables! Un pays a découvrir!!"

 

Maider + Daniel (ESP - Aug'13): "Pool Houses is a great place to spend few days and relax. The house is beatiful and the pool fantastic with salty water. Antonio and Luis are friendly and nice. They have organiced in detail everything you need in the study and all the information for visiting the area, beaches, villages... We would love to came back!!"

 

Liam + Daniel (CAN/SWD - Aug'13): "We had a wonderful time in the studio of Antonio/Luis' Pool Houses! The apartment was bright and clean, small but enough for 2 people. The salt-water pool was wonderful and the view behind it was breathtaking. It is important to have a car for transportation purposes. The hosts were very warm and helpful - even filling the fridge with breakfast basics for us! Recommended."

 

Molly (EUA - Jul'13): "I REALLY enjoyed my stay at this wonderful sanctuary. The design esthetic is superb and everything felt comfortable and relaxed. I rented a car, which made zipping into Sesimbra for dinner or heading over to Meco for the nude beach, a breeze. Luis and Antonio were very friendly and helpful. I booked a massage with Antonio, which was heavenly and affordable - definitely recommend his healing touch as a bonus to staying with them. I loved the pool right outside my room and was able to do yoga in the mornings on the pool deck - they supply nice deck chairs and shade, so you don't even need to leave the property to enjoy the sunny days! The only thing missing for me was a hot tub, but the hosts say they have plans to put one in - would be a one more reason to return to this oasis! Wish I could have stayed longer, but it was a perfect respite for me. Absolutely lovely."

Note: We said to Molly we do have plans to put a steam bath, not a hot tub.

 

Soledad + David (ESP - Jul'13): "La estancia en Pool Houses fue estupenda. A la casa no le falta ningun detalle para la comodidad y el disfrute de sus inquilinos. Antonio y Luis son unos anfitriones encantadores, educados, y atentos. Nos facilitaron todo tipo de indicaciones y consejos que requerimos para visitar la zona. Volveremos proximamente."

 

Melissa + Mark (AUS - Jul'13): "Luis and Antonio are the most welcoming and incredible hosts ever. We couldn't have asked for a more amazing stay. They organised a scooter for us as well as drove us to the supermarket and lent us as many dvds as we wanted (they have an extensive collection). The pool is extremely well kept and felt like a majestic, private heaven. The water is salt not chlorine which made your skin and hair feel so fresh. The Pool room is exactly like the pictures - clean and crisp. They house backs onto wild land and you can hear the birds in the morning. At evening the sunset is a brilliant red. They have compiled a welcome folder with all the best local restaurants, beaches, bars etc. Thoroughly recommended."

 

Maike + Magdalena (GER/ARG - Jul'13): "Great place if you search for relaxation, privacy and really nice hosts! We really enjoyed the apartment, the pool and the relaxing atmosphere. Even when the place seems to be in the middle of nowhere it is easily reachable from Lisbon and close to restaurants, supermarkets and Sesimbra. Luis and Antonio were really accommodating, friendly and willing to help us out. They keep the apartment and the pool in great shape."

 

Maria + Andrés (PT/ESP - Dez'12): "Um lugar especial onde recebi tudo o que necessitava. A casa é muito confortável e tem tudo o que necessitamos para uma estadia tranquila no meio da calma e a pouca distância do mar. Aprendi que também é perfeitamente possível chegar às Pool Houses sem GPS, o que vale muito a pena porque se podem descobrir, todos os dias, novos caminhos, coisa que converte a estadia numa experiência ainda mais maravilhosa :-) Pelo pouco tempo que lá passei, sinto que há que voltar para usufruir de tudo o que ainda me faltou. O respeito do Luís e do António pelos hóspedes, o cuidado que tiveram com os detalhes, antes, durante e depois da estadia mostram o quanto valerá a pena regressar. Muito obrigada por tudo!

A special place where I received everything I needed. The house is very comfortable and has everything you need for a relaxing stay in the countryside but really near the sea. I learned that it is also perfectly possible to arrive Pool Houses without GPS, which is very worthwhile because you can find every day, new ways, something that converts the stay into a wonderful experience :-) From the little time I spent there, I feel that I should come back to enjoy all that I still lacked. António and Luís truly respect the guests a lot, and took care with the details before, during and after the stay. That shows how much is it worth returning. Thank you for everything!"

 

André + Filipe (PT - Out'12): "Queria felicitar a Pool Houses pela simpatia com que nos receberam. As palavras que poderia aqui deixar não manifestavam todos os sentimentos que passámos em tão sãs companhias. Um bem-haja para ambos. Foi óptimo, certamente que iremos voltar. OBRIGADO por TUDO"

 

Noëmie + Thomas (FRA - Oct'12): "Maison très jolie et très agréable, tout comme Luís et António, la maison et très bien situé pour se balader la journée et rester au calme si on le souhaite ! Des petites attention des hôtes qui change tout, mise a disposition de CD, DVD, possibilité de massage, salle de sport, top essayer et vous approuverez! Si des amis veulent allé au Portugal nous leur recommanderons vivement votre maison."

 

Eric + Denis (FRA - Sep'12): "Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cette superbe villa aux lignes modernes, mais, surtout au calme, parfait pour déconnecter, se reposer. Étant à 15min de la mer et de charmants petits village, on peut également trouver de très belles plages, et pour le soir, de très bons restaurants. Si vous préferez rester au calme autour de la piscine et regarder le soleil se coucher dans la mer, l'appartement est entièrement équipe pour cuisiner, mais, il serait dommage de ne pas goûter aux spécialités. Bref rien de négatif, Luís et António sont accueillants et discrets et de bons conseils pour les bonnes plages et les restaurants. Nous espérons vivement y retourner." 

 

Krakeel Family (NL - Jul'12): "Dear Luis, It was early, we were not used to waking up this time any more. Vacation is over... Thank you so much for your hospitality this week. We apreciated your help in finding places in Lisbon, your movies for the children, the beautiful place you made here to make our stay a sucess. Good luck with your Pool Houses and maybe untill another time! Xandra, Kees, Demi & Romee"

 

Jan + Simon (NL - Jun'12): "Thank you a lot for your hospitality. We had a great time here and we are sad we have to leave. As a small thank you we leave this present for you [tulip bulbs]. With regards, Jan + Simon"

 

Elena + Marina + Marina (RUS - May'12): "Many thanks to Luis and Antonio for such a wonderfull stay! The apartments are near the forest, the air is fantastic fresh after the rain! Comfortable accomodation. Well equiped kitchen, comfy beds, and well-kept area! I liked swimming in the pool every morning. My friends and me really enjoyed staying there!"

 

Sérgio + Eduardo (PT - Mar'12): "Agradecemos os bons momentos que nos foram proporcionados em mais uma estadia na Pool Houses. Tomar banho na piscina em Março, poder desfrutar das novas valências postas ao serviço dos hóspedes; confirmar a simpatia excepcional dos anfitriões, são tudo factores que nos impelem a voltar e a recomendar as Pool Houses, um alojamento que só poderá ter um futuro auspicioso!"

 

Nigel (UK - Mar'12): "I wish to totally recommend Pool Houses. I have had an extremely enjoyable short stay there and can't wait to visit again. The architect designed house is absolutely stunning, as is the lovely self catering flat. Everything is brand new, spotlessly clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated and furnished. The pool is gorgeous too. The location is great for exploring this lovely area and trips to Lisbon are easily possible. Also the price incredibly reasonable for such outstanding quality. Best of all are hosts Luis and Antonio who are kind and attentive and keen to see that guests are a happy and have all they need for a great holiday. The guys are rightly proud of their lovely place and deserve every success in this new venture for them."

 

Paula + Rui (PT - Jan'12): "Agradecemos à Pool Houses o fim de semana excelente que nos proporcionou. O local, a proximidade do mar, a casa (linda, funcional e confortável), a piscina convidativa, o cantar do galo do vizinho a anunciar a alvorada e a arte de bem receber dos anfitrões Luís e António, tudo foi 5*****. Agora, aqui estamos de volta ao mundo real, mas com uma certeza: Voltaremos!!! Paula & Rui"

 

Sérgio + Eduardo (PT - Out'11): "Estivemos no passado fim de semana na Pool Houses e o nosso comentário resume-se a duas palavras: MUITO AGRADÁVEL: os pequenos mimos da arte de bem receber; o apartamento arejado; a piscina bem arquitectada; o ambiente acolhedor e de grande abertura à diversidade... Recomendamos e repetiremos, tanto mais que acabámos por explorar pouco as redondezas... por que terá sido?..."

 

Raquel + Gisela (PT - Set'11): "Adorámos... Casa e piscina fantásticas, de muito bom gosto!!! Não vou sequer elogiar os anfitriões Luís e António pois superaram de longe as nossas expectativas!!! São uns queridos... Definitivamente vamos regressar e recomendar!!!"
