The Lagoon House
Welcome to our home by the Óbidos Lagoon in Foz do Arelho
Lagoon Óbidos is 85 km north of Lisbon, a 45-minute drive from the airport. The house is located on a hill with views of the lagoon and the ocean from the bedrooms of each apartment. Within walking distance, just 7 minutes to the beach. Lagoon House is suitable for families with children, groups, as well as surfers, windsurfers, and kitesurfers thanks to its proximity to Peniche and Nazaré, legendary surf spots.
"Ideal for families with children, as well as for groups of surfers."

Individual houses are rented on a weekly basis. Check-in day is Saturday; outside the high season and in special cases, a different check-in day can potentially be arranged.
For beginner surfers, we have two beginner boards available, plus six wetsuits in sizes for children aged 6–15.
Transport to the property is also possible by public bus. From the town of Caldas da Rainha, located 7 km away, the journey takes about 1 hour and 10 minutes and costs 7–10 EUR. Buses run several times per hour throughout the day until 1:30 a.m. (a total of 32 services per day).
From Caldas da Rainha, you can continue by local bus to the town of Foz do Arelho, which is located by the lagoon and just a 10-minute walk from our house.
Alternatively, we recommend using Uber or Bolt, which will take you directly from the bus station to our address at Travessa Maldonado Freitas 9, Foz do Arelho for around 5 EUR.
Another option is to rent a car at the airport, which can be arranged in advance online. Having a credit card can help reduce the rental cost. Outside the high season, car rental prices can be around 10–12 EUR per day. If you only have a standard debit card, higher insurance costs may apply. Recommended services: Edreams and Movida.

Outdoor & Sports Activities
Surfing and Water Sports
Our location is ideal for water lovers and wave seekers. Surfers will find great spots here, whether you’re a total beginner or an experienced rider.
If you’re into kitesurfing, the lagoon is a perfect place — especially the shallow waters near the Yacht Club. Surfing and bodyboarding are possible right in front of the lagoon, while more advanced surfers can head to Nazaré, only 20 minutes from our house. Nazaré is world-renowned for its giant waves that can reach up to 30 meters and attract legends like Garrett McNamara — we recommend watching the HBO documentary series 100 Foot Wave, filmed right there.
Yacht Club & Water Sports Rentals
We also recommend a visit to the local Yacht Club, where you can rent equipment for windsurfing, wing foiling, Hobie Cats, Laser sailboats, Optimist dinghies for kids, paddleboards, or kayaks. Sailing, kitesurfing, and windsurfing lessons are also available.
The Yacht Club is a great spot to relax — enjoy a drink at sunset and then take a walk to the ocean viewpoint, visible even from your bedroom window. The walk to the cliff takes about 15 minutes through beautiful nature. There’s also convenient parking available right below the cliff.
More Sport Options
If you prefer staying on land, the area offers excellent conditions for golf, cycling, and fishing. Whether you’re looking for an adrenaline rush or peaceful active relaxation, our location has something for everyone.
Towns & Surroundings
The nearest trip takes you to the charming town of Caldas da Rainha, known for its lovely historic center and daily fruit and vegetable markets at the main square.
Just around the corner, you’ll also find a fresh fish market

We keep moving forward…
Our house is the perfect place for both relaxation and an active stay. Right next to it, the ATELIER DE ARTES FOZ is taking shape – a space that will offer facilities for team buildings, retreats, and other group activities.
The atelier is designed for practicing performing arts (dance, movement, and physical theatre) as well as for a variety of art workshops (painting, sculpture, etc.), including yoga retreats. Its mission and key purpose is to provide creative residency programs and to be an inspiring place for the creation of artistic projects. If your company comes for a team building, you will be supporting residency opportunities for young artists.
The atelier will be equipped with large-scale front and rear projection, a greenscreen option, and professional sound equipment.
We are now in the final stage of completion and already planning to host teams, creative workshops, and inspiring gatherings. If you’re looking for a place where work and relaxation naturally blend, our house will soon offer even more opportunities.
