About Carlos Capaz

My main work is to make knitwear collections, for my family’s company. I also own a construction company that builds lovely Portuguese traditional houses, all located in rural villages at 30 mins from Lisbon.

My wife she loves cats, is fluent in several languages and works as a teacher in a High School. We are a couple in our fifties.

Carlos Capaz purchased this villa in 2005
Why Carlos Capaz chose Foz Do Arelho

As Silver Coast is a fantastic region ( that we knew very well), we decided to build there our dream property. After discover the land, we found out the place so charming that we decided immediately to buy it and build there the villa of our dreams. We just wanted the best and we did not spare any efforts to achieve our aims. The result was a fantastic villa and an architectural master piece completely turned to the luxury relax, the sun and the views.

Stunning

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Aug 26, 2009
  • Stayed: Aug 2009
We stayed in Casa do Lago for a week in August 09. The villa was easily big enough for our family of 4 adults (2 parents & 2 grandparents) and 5 children, and if we'd kept the baby in our room could have accomodated the other set of grandparents too.

The villa was simply stunning and exceeded even our high expectations having viewed the website.

It has extraordinary views over the lagoon and out to the ocean. The infinity pool is fabulous and the gardens look great but better still include a childrens play area, hammocks, outdoor gym, and crazy golf. This was paradise for the kids (3yrs to 14 yrs) who also loved all the toys and games in the villa: bikes, table tennis, table football, frisbees, inflatables, body boards, bikes (helmets even provided), trikes etc... For the adults there with at least 9 sun loungers by the pool, a wine fridge, sun shades on windows that opened and shut with the sun and bikes and gym equipment for the more adventurous.

We used the outdoor bbq and the lady who looks after the house for the owners was able to arrange for people to cook for us one evening without a problem.

The villa was cleaned and linen changed mid week, and the pool regularly cleaned. All the bedrooms were big, en-suite, with floor to ceiling glass door/windows onto the patios or balconies.

Furnishings and equipment in the villa are all as we'd have at home, not the usual 'rental' standard. Touches such as all switches being labelled and a pc provided with broadband made the stay even easier.

The beach in Foz was busy, but a 25 min drive around to the other side of the lagoon and leads to acres of almost empty golden sand, with the added pleasure of looking across at your own villa.

Very happy to recommend!
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children, People with Disabilities, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: Our aim is to have all clients very satisfied and we will never be happy with less than that.
All comments are welcome and we feel very gratified when clients spend their time writing such nice words about our villa.
Despite our guests positive opinions, we will not stop and very soon we will start a new improvement process in the villa with the installation of new facilities.

This is the second time that we stayed in Casa do Lago.
There were 9 of us ranging from 70 to 8 years old.
As in the previous year we all had a brilliant time.

The house is lovely to stay in and has all you need regarding facilities and appliances - even UK TV channels which enabled us to watch the end of the Olympics. It is home from home.

Outside there are great facilities including the beautifully warm swimming pool.

We all had a great time and were sad to leave.
All the children enjoyed windsurfing on the lagoon which is warm and totally safe, only a very short drive from the house.

We had a fantastic stay at Casa do Lago at the end of February through the beginning of March. We were there with our two children, ages 2 and 4, for whom the villa was an absolute paradise. The kids played every morning on the playground while the adults lay in the hammocks admiring the breathtaking views of the lagoon. The villa was beautiful and well-maintained, inside and out.
The villa is also well-positioned to visit many beautiful areas. We made day trips to Obidos, Sintra, Nazare, and Caldas da Rainha. Obidos was lovely, Sintra a bit farther afield but absolutely not to be missed--we went back twice and could have spent even more time there exploring the primeval forests and stunning castles. Nazare had a lovely beach but otherwise seemed a little touristy for my tastes, but the drive there along the coast was lovely, and we made a stop at the beautiful Sao Martinho do Porto on the way. Parking was a little tricky in Caldas, but the big park there was beautiful, with a wonderful playground for the kids--definitely worth a visit. Foz was small but charming, with a beautiful beach. We were able to stock up on all the groceries we needed (and delicious pastries) at the small local shops. We generally ate lunch in restaurants and cooked dinner in the well-appointed kitchen at the villa, since the Portuguese eat dinner well beyond our kids' bedtime.

Carlos was a wonderful host, responding quickly to every request. I highly recommend this villa for families with young children or for anyone looking for a beautiful relaxing vacation spot with easy access to many of the loveliest sites of Portugal.

Perfect villa

Casa Do Lago is the perfect villa for families with children. With an electrically operated gated entrance the grounds of the villa are secure, beautifully laid out, full of flowers and with lots of activities to keep children of all ages entertained. Our four year old grandson loved feeding the goldfish in the ornamental pond every morning. The heated swimming pool is great and again is very secure, providing peace of mind for adults. The layout of the villa worked well for us, an extended family of eight people, making optimum use of the truly outstanding views over the lagoon. The fantastic beaches of Foz do Arelho are a two minute drive, five minutes by bicycle, away and there are lots of other terrific beaches within easy reach, as well as places of interest.

We have rented a number of high quality villas across Europe in recent years, Casa do Lago matches the best.
