c/o cabanas is not just a holiday home but a refuge in pure nature paying tribute to sustainability and modern design. The black cabanas reside in Brejos da Carregueira de Baixo Comporta, one hour South of Lisbon, in an unspoilt reserve of 7.600 square meters with wild pine trees, rice field views, white sandy ground and the Atlantic Sea scent in the air. A deep commitment to quality and nature is evident in every detail.

Interior and products have been carefully selected in the three cabanas that can host up to 4 explorers and unwinders. A kitchen and dining table provide space for 8 persons, so friends can be invited. Cooking and daily cleaning is taken care of (c/o). Generous terraces, a pool and a 50 km long beach in walking distance invite guests to spend their days outside.
