Welcome to this lush garden paradise. Locally sourced travertine stone is throughout the kitchen with beautiful wood accents. There is a spacious living room with floor to ceiling glass doors looking out into the spectacular garden and, most likely, the largest Bird of Paradise plant you’ve ever seen. The entire space is designed in minimalist way but for maximum usability. The master bedroom also has floor to ceiling glass doors with black out curtains and an ensuite bathroom with steam shower.

Staying at the Katz Kompound is like a spa get away in the suburbs with your own space. We aim for folks to be able to come visit and leave completely relaxed. While tranquility is one of the goals, it’s also a great location to access plenty of adventure sports like kite boarding, surfing, hiking and much more. It’s also a great spot for deep work!
Our property is perfect for those looking for an escape to focus on their projects, for a romantic escape or vacations in a peaceful space designed for relaxation and creativity, where you can unwind and let your imagination soar.
To ensure everyone's safety, please keep the gates closed.
The house has an ensuite bathroom with steam shower, not an independent sauna facility.
If you like golf, you can check the golf courses in Herdade da Aroeira. They are good and not far from the house. They also have tennis and padel courses.
Please let us know if you need any additional information.
*There's a spa area being built in the condominium, so in a little while it will be a bonus for guests. The work is currently mostly inside the space and not continuous, to avoid disruption, but please take that in consideration before booking. We want you to feel as comfortable as possible here at home :)
Welcome to Our Home!
We are thrilled to host you and want to ensure that you have a fantastic stay.
To maintain a smooth experience for everyone, we kindly ask that you follow the house rules below. These guidelines will help ensure the comfort and safety of all guests and neighbors.
If you have any questions or special requests, please let us know in advance!
Legal Check-In Requirements
In compliance with Portuguese law, we are required to collect specific information from all guests for SEF/SIBA (Foreigners and Borders Service).
If this information is not provided, we will be unable to proceed with the check-in or hand over the keys. We appreciate your understanding, as this is a legal requirement, and in such cases, no refunds can be granted.
Check-In and Check-Out Times
Check-in: After 16:00 (4 PM)
Check-out: Before 11:00 (11 AM)
We understand that flexibility can be important, so if there are no bookings before or after your stay, we will try to arrange flexible check-in or check-out times. Just let us know in advance and we’ll do our best to accommodate your schedule.
Late Check-In Fees
For check-ins after 19:00 (7 PM), if you need to be welcomed in person, a late check-in fee will be charged and is payable directly to the person meeting you at the apartment. The fees are as follows:
19:00 (7 PM) to 23:00 (11 PM): 20€
After 23:00 (11 PM): 30€
Lost Keys or Lockout Assistance
If keys are lost or a specialist is required to unlock the door due to keys being left inside or blocking the lock, the guest will be responsible for the service cost.
The minimum charge is 100€ (can be higher according to the technician's invoice) and the payment request will be sent to the guest after the service is completed.
TV/Internet Subscriptions
Please refrain from subscribing to any additional TV or internet services (such as Netflix or premium channels) without prior authorization. Any unauthorized subscriptions will be charged to the guest when we receive the providers invoice.
Towel Usage
We provide one small and one large towel per guest. These towels are for personal use only and should not be used to remove makeup or clean surfaces. If towels are found to be heavily soiled and require replacement (e.g. stained with makeup), a fee of €15 per towel will be charged.
Complimentary Essentials
We provide some basic essentials (like detergent, coffee, etc.) to help you settle in comfortably on your first day and give you time to buy the things you prefer during your time in town. These are intended as a welcome gesture and we hope they make your arrival more enjoyable!
Respect for Neighbors
Our home is located in a residential area and we ask that you be considerate of our neighbors. Please avoid making loud noises, especially after 21:00 (9 PM). Let’s help each other maintain a peaceful and pleasant living environment.
No Smoking and No Parties
Smoking inside the accommodation and hosting parties are strictly prohibited. Non-compliance will result in additional cleaning and damage fees:
Smoking: €200 minimum
Parties: €3000 minimum
