I can’t recommend this hotel enough! Staying here was the best decision and truly the best place to stay in the Aljezur area. Everything exceeded my expectations! The rooms and facilities are spotless, the breakfast is amazing, and the pool with its stunning surroundings is just incredible.🥰 Vanessa and Dick, the owners, are wonderfully down-to-earth and the best hosts you could ask for. Their attention to detail is clear in every aspect of the place, making it absolutely perfect. I highly recommend it and will definitely be back. See you soon ✨🤍
We had a dream vacation at Birds of Paradise! The house is beautiful, extremely clean, and every room smells wonderful. Vanessa and Dick are incredible hosts who do everything they can to make us feel at home and provide us with information (both during our stay and for the rest of our road trip in Portugal!). They created a warm, friendly, sporty, and very pleasant atmosphere in their home! The location is also exceptional, with beautiful beaches nearby and surf lessons organized by Vanessa and Dick. Thank you so much for everything, and we look forward to coming back very soon! Sonia, Radu, Mathis, and Emma
Such a wonderful and relaxing place! I highly recommend! I stayed one week at Birds of Paradise and had the best time. The room was super comfortable, the breakfasts delicious, the swimming pool, garden and terrasse are amazing to rest and relax. Dick and Vanessa are fantastic hosts. They have created a happy place which feels like a paradise where you can meet other guests or enjoy quiet time on your own. I also enjoyed the yoga classes, and their great tips for local activities and restaurants. I wish I could give more than 5 stars!
Our stay at Birds of Paradise was truly special, definitely thanks to the amazing hospitality of Dick and Vanessa. Dick’s surf tips made catching the local waves a blast, and Vanessa’s overall advice on the best restaurants and what to do in the area helped so much! Their house (and swimming pool!) is absolutely gorgeous. The location is unbeatable—just minutes from some of the best surf spots in the area. Last but not least, we looked forward to their delicious homemade breakfast, which was the perfect start to our day. Big thanks for making us feel welcome: we’ll be back for sure ❤️🏄‍♂️
The Birds of Paradise House is truly an amazing find! Vanessa and Dick together with the helping hands in the house are extremely friendly and do not hesitate to help in any circumstance. The room was spacious and clean. So is the commonly shared space in the house. The breakfast is a lovely selection of vegetarian (which I really appreciate) local goods. The surrounding offers a lot of activities and necessary places like restaurants and a supermarket. They also have an arrangement with a local surf school and can provide contact. Thanks again for the great time. I can really recommend it!
We couldn't have wished for a better place to stay. Vanessa and Dick's place is nicely renovated, warm, cosy and equipped with all amenities we desired. Above all, Vanessa and Dick are just the best hosts. Arranging our surfing lessons was a breeze, providing tips on locations to eat and activities around town before we could even ask. Thanks for having us!
Wonderful Experience We had a fantastic week at this cozy bed and breakfast. The house is charming and feels just like home, with thoughtful touches in every corner that make the stay truly comfortable. The real heart of this place, though, is Vanessa and Dick. They’re professional yet warm and welcoming, making you feel right at ease. Their local insights and recommendations are spot-on, whether you’re a surfer or not (we fall into the latter category). We’d love to come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable stay.
