Porto Covo Beach Residences
Some places have been preserved by time. Porto Covo is one of them. Just metres from the sea, this development sits in one of the most authentic and sought-after areas of the Alentejo coast.
Low whitewashed houses, streets that run down to the sea. Porto Covo has kept its scale and its history intact. All around it, the Southwest Alentejo and Vicentine Coast Natural Park protects a stretch of coastline spared from the construction that took over most of the rest of the country.
It is this setting — and not just the beach — that underpins the value of buying here. What is protected by law cannot be replicated on the plot next door.
On the Alentejo coast, inside the Southwest Alentejo and Vicentine Coast Natural Park. Sines lies to the north, Comporta up the coast — and Praia Grande beach fifty metres from the door.
Lisbon airport is an hour and a half away via the A2 and A26 — close enough for a weekend, far enough to feel nothing like the city.
Pathways connecting the whole resort without crossing a single road.
A boardwalk over the dune: one minute between your front door and the sand.
Eight hectares designed so the buildings disappear into the landscape.
Designed by the Gonçalo Salazar de Sousa architecture studio and built by Carvoeiro Construções, a Pestana Group company. Licensing has been approved by Turismo de Portugal and the Portuguese Environment Agency.
The studio is no stranger to this coast: its track record includes houses in Comporta, Muda and Meco — the same shoreline, less than an hour from here. View the studio's portfolio.
236 tourist apartments, set across a private gated resort of eight hectares facing the sea.
Construction follows sustainability criteria — ecological techniques and efficient technologies, as expected of anyone building inside a natural park.
Management is entrusted to Pestana Residences — from the tourist operation to the full administration of the resort, with the same level of service for owners and guests. Construction is expected to start at the end of the first half of 2026, with completion around two years later, between summer and the end of 2028.
It is also a considered asset: the tourist operation generates income when the home is not in use, and the scarcity of new supply on a protected coastline supports its potential for appreciation.
Every apartment is a T1+2 — one bedroom plus two independent studios. The layout is no accident of design: it allows you to live in the whole apartment, or place the studios in tourist operation separately.
The apartments face west: bedrooms turned to the east and living rooms to the west/south, ensuring excellent sunlight for most of the day.
Ground-floor units will have private gardens and a small pool, while upper-floor units will have, in addition to the private pool, wide balconies connected to the living rooms and rooftops with spectacular views over the surrounding landscape.
Two ways of living the same T1+2 typology: at garden level, with a private pool; or above, with a rooftop terrace over the landscape.
Private garden and pool at ground level, 30.55 m² outdoor terrace.
Suite, study and living room with a 10.25 m² balcony.
58.60 m² private rooftop terrace with pool, reached by an interior staircase.
Indicative floor plans, with no contractual value. Areas and finishes may vary by unit.

When buying off-plan, the question that matters is not what the apartment will look like. It is who answers if anything goes wrong — and who looks after the home once it is delivered.
