The Experience

Sonia’s special B&B is just five minutes from the wild Atlantic coast and an hour north of Lisbon. From Germany, via Spain, she’s made Portugal her home and transformed one of the few remaining old village houses into an easy-going, stylish place to stay. You walk in to fresh white walls, terracotta and patterned tiles, modern, vintage and antique pieces, candles, potted plants and happily informal flower arrangements. Steep stairs lead to small attractive bedrooms with super-comfortable beds; one room overlooks the garden, the other the quiet road. Guests share (but only if they are in the same party) a good bathroom, an inviting sitting room with plenty of books and an open fire, and the burgeoning garden with its reed-filtered natural pool, veg patch, shady hammock and covered outdoor terrace – for breakfasts of local cheeses, eggs, jams and bread. Sonia loves to share her passions for cooking, gardening and local history; a qualified masseuse and a dog-lover too. If you’re missing yours you may take her bouncy Bernese Mountain Dog Bella for a walk. Some of the best surfing beaches in the world – Ericeira, Santa Cruz – are just down the road…

Reviews

My stay was wonderful, it’s an inspiring house, very stylish, clean and comfortable, with beautiful corners and a garden where you can close your eyes and enjoy the charm of the place. Sonia was a wonderful host, with so much care and attention to detail, offering plentiful breakfasts and enjoyable conversations. The perfect place to just enjoy the peace for a few days. We were there for 5 days. Thank you Sonia, everything was perfect.

Ramon, Madrid

A blissful bolt hole in an undiscovered part of Portugal. Sonja is an incredible host - she has trained in both interiors and luxury hotels… and it shows. Stunning decor and warm, generous hospitality throughout: delicious outdoor breakfasts, welcome drinks on the terrace, fluffy bathrobes, evening turndown service and a 5* concierge service with top tips for food and drink, local sights, surfing and so much more. The natural pool, beautiful interiors, her friendly charm and Bella the dog combine to make this a truly special place to stay.

Jo, London

We arrived from a bicycle trip from the north and it was a real discovery to be in this town that is a magical place. A paradise in Portugal. Its owner, Sonia, an excellent hostess, and Bella, her adorable pet, have made our stay very pleasant. Without a doubt, a place to always return to.

Angeles, Madrid

We love this place!!! Sonia is a warm and caring host, provides a wonderful breakfast in her lovely and well furnished house - all tidy and amazing decorated, neat and homely. We enjoyed all days and the relaxed evenings, got hints and advices and are very happy we met: Sonia, her friends and Bella, her endearing dog. Thank you very much! We hope to see you again.

Felicitas, Munich

What an amazing place! Sonia is a great host. We stayed in a lovely room with a big bathroom - all very tastefully furnished with a lot of attention to detail. The garden is stunningly beautiful and there's a nature pool. The dog Bella gives the place even more character :). She's a very kind dog We'll definitely come back! Thanks for everything Sonia!

Fiona, Konstanz

The Villa Kaete is very nice and quiet. Our stay witt Sonja, our guest, was wonderful. The villa is near the sea, not so far from Lisabon. I recommend and for sure I will come back! Thanks a lot Sonja!

Emmanuelle, Paris

We had a brilliant stay at Sonia's place and will definitely come back as soon as we find the time. Her knowledge of the area, hidden restaurant gems and simply her nice and welcoming manner made our experience unique. And while I'm personally not a dog person, Bella is a great entertainer making the stay even more remarkable ;). Thanks Sonia and hope to see you soon!

Andreas, Munich

A house decorated with an exquisite taste and very cosy . Sonia, the owner, takes care of even the smallest detail and during the five days of our stay, we have felt at home. Without a doubt, an experience to repeat !!. Highly recommended!

Merce, Barcelona

My stay at Villa Kaete was wonderful - Sonja is an great host and really went above and beyond for me. During my stay I joined Sonja for a surf lesson and went to a local seafood restaurant that I otherwise wouldn't have tried or even known about. The best part of the weekend was spending time with Sonja's beautiful dog Bella. I will definitely be back at Villa Kaete next time I am in Portugal.

Stefanie, Johannesburg, South Africa

Highly recommend that beautiful place! Definitely coming back!

Frederik, Nagold

Sebastian, Heidelberg

We enjoyed our amazing stay at Villa Kaete tremendously! This is like a home away from home. The garden, the house, the beautiful and adorable Bernese Mountain Dog - you simply don’t want to leave! Thank you Sonja for making this such a special place🙏

Asa, Helsingborg

What a find.. A lovely home, a beautiful garden and Sonja made us feel very welcome and at home and gave us lots of information and help on where to go and what to do so that we had a wonderful time here. We will definitely be back!

Erika, Coffs Harbour

I felt at Sonia's warmly welcome from the moment I arrived there. Sonia is a fantastic woman and a great host. Villa Kaete is a wonderful home that shows it was all made with love. Bella, her dog is absolutely sweet. I really had fun playing with Bella in the fantastic garden which is full of colorful plants. Surely, I will come back. Thank You so much Sonia for these great holidays!

Verena, Frankfurt

My husband and I stayed at Villa Kaete for a night as we made our way south to Lisbon on our Northern Spain/Portugal Honeymoon tour. The home and garden are both absolutely stunning, our bedroom cozy and beautifully decorated, but what really made our stay was Sonja's hospitality. Looking forward to coming back for a longer stay in the future!

Tanya, Washington, D.C.

Great place to be! I had a wonderful and relaxed time during my stay. Sonja is the most generous and caring host I have met in a long time. The place is quiet, close to the sea, the pool fantastic, very clean and not to forget her lovely dog Bella. Definately recommendable - I will visit Sonjas place again!

Ursula, Vienna

Great place to spend a relaxing weekend or as the base to see the west coast of Portugal. The house is very cozy and has a lot of charm. The garden is a fantastic oasis. Sonja made me feel like at home. Will surely repeat if I go to Portugal again.

Mats, Stockholm

I was privileged enough to find Sonja's house and stay there for 2 nights this year. What a wonderful house and gardens and Sonja was the perfect host. Her dog Bella made it for me too, great character and fun to be around. The beaches nearby were exceptional, the walks along them breathtaking, the food in a class of its own, and she has done a great job in the garden too. Recommend highly!
