The House

The name Casa Arco Iris means Rainbow House, as the expression goes: “you will find a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow”. That is what you will experience when staying in our beach house. We've amplified this by using bright colours like blue, green and purple in the bedrooms.

There are 3 double bedrooms in the main house and another double in a semi-detached apartment in the garden. Altogether the house can accommodate up to 8 people.

Open plan living/dining room

The living room comes with 2 double sofas and a marble dining table with 4 chairs. There is also a TV set and radio/CD player.

Kitchen

The kitchen has a spacious pantry, marble work tops, large fridge/freezer, gas stove with oven, double sink, a blender and a coffee machine. There is ample cutlery with dinner sets for 12 people. The washing machine is just outside the kitchen.

Blue Bedroom (master en-suite)

The master bedroom has a King Size bed (180x200m) with box spring mattress, built-in wardrobe and fan. The en-suite comes fully equipped with a shower, wash basin and toilet.

Purple Bedroom (en-suite)

The purple bedroom can be set up as a double or twin room. It has 2 single beds (90x200m) with box spring mattress, built-in (open) wardrobe and fan. The en-suite comes fully equipped with a shower, wash basin and toilet.

Green Bedroom

The green bedroom can be set up as a double or twin room. It has 2 single beds (90x200m) with box spring mattress, built-in (open) wardrobe and fan. The room is right next to the main bathroom.

Semi detached apartment

Separate from the main house the apartment offers a little more privacy. It has its own entrance, 2 single beds (90x200) with box spring mattress, fan and chest of drawers. The bathroom is en-suite with shower, wash basin and toilet.

Veranda

Wrapped around the house in a U shape, the veranda offers a shaded area for relaxing and dining. It has 2 tables and 10 dining chairs with a lovely view over the dunes, the area and the ocean.

Front and back garden

The lush garden has a shady lawn area with palm trees. There is plenty of space for sunbathing by the edge of the pool and comfortable deckchairs for 8 people.

Veranda with Brazilian BBQ

Next to the pool area and overlooking the ocean we have an outdoor BBQ with plenty of space for a table and chairs. There is a work surface and sink for preparation and clean-up.

Additional Details

  • The pool and the garden are maintained daily by our neighbour who lives next to the property.
  • The garden borders the dunes, a protected area, which is accessible by a door in the fence.
  • The house has its own water supply that is pumped up from the dunes. This water is safe to drink and does not need to be boiled before consumption.
  • We have an agent living nearby who is fluent in English and Portuguese. They can be reached for questions and will hand over keys to the property as well as a house tour with the necessary explanations.
