Authentic and Unique Experiences:
Discover. Experience. Remember.
With CASA CASA, you’ll discover Algarve not just as a holiday destination, but as a way of life – filled with light, nature, and atmosphere.
Lagos is the vibrant heart of western Algarve – a place where tradition and joie de vivre blend effortlessly. The charming old town, with its cobblestone streets, invites you to stroll and explore: historic buildings, colorful tiled façades, small boutiques, galleries, and plenty of cafés where the espresso somehow tastes twice as good as it does at home.
Those interested in history can visit the old city gate Porta de São Gonçalo, the remains of the Moorish city walls, or the former slave market (Mercado de Escravos) – a sobering yet important part of Portuguese colonial history.
An unforgettable experience is a walk along Ponta da Piedade – a spectacular rock formation south of Lagos, where golden cliffs, natural arches, and grottos meet the turquoise Atlantic. Early in the morning or at sunset, the atmosphere here is truly magical.
Beach lovers will find some of the most beautiful stretches of coastline in Algarve in and around Lagos.
Praia do Camilo – idyllically nestled between cliffs and accessible via a long wooden staircase.
Praia Dona Ana – picturesque, easily accessible, and perfect for a day trip.
Meia Praia – the largest city beach, stretching for miles and perfect for long beach days or water sports.
Those looking for adventure can take boat tours through the sea caves, paddle along the coast by kayak, or go dolphin watching. And in the evening? The atmosphere in Lagos is lively but never overwhelming – perfect for a relaxed sunset drink or a seafood dinner with a view of the ocean.
Vila do Bispo is a place for those who long for peace and authenticity. Here, the hectic pace of the world comes to an end – and the vast skies of the Alentejo and the wildness of the Atlantic begin.
The small town is nestled among green hills, surrounded by nature parks and little villages that seem as if time has forgotten them. At its center stands the Igreja Matriz de Vila do Bispo – a simple 16th-century church overlooking daily village life. On Saturdays, it’s market day, when farmers from the surrounding countryside sell fresh fruit, cheese, olive oil, and honey straight from their fields.
The surrounding area is a true paradise for hikers and nature lovers:
The Parque Natural do Sudoeste Alentejano e Costa Vicentina begins practically right on the doorstep. Here, spectacular trails lead along rugged cliffs, through pine forests, and past secluded coves.
The Rota Vicentina – one of Europe’s most beautiful coastal hiking routes – winds across dunes, cliffs, and grazing lands throughout the region.
Along the coast, you’ll find beaches that are among the wildest and most untouched in Algarve:
Praia do Castelejo – with dramatic rock formations, perfect for long walks.
Praia da Cordoama – especially popular with surfers, yet also a dream for those seeking tranquility.
And then there is Cabo de São Vicente – the southwesternmost point of Europe, where you truly feel as if you are standing at the edge of the world. The lighthouse rises majestically above the cliffs, and at sunset the experience is simply unforgettable.
In Vila do Bispo, you experience Algarve as it once was decades ago – slow, genuine, and breathtakingly beautiful.
Burgau is a small coastal gem that has preserved its authenticity while welcoming everyone looking for the true Algarve feeling. Nestled between high cliffs, the village rests in a wind-sheltered bay – so charming that it is affectionately called the “Santorini of the Algarve” (just without the crowds).
In the village center, narrow streets wind between white houses and colorful flower pots. In the morning you may see fishermen mending their nets, at lunchtime the air is filled with the aroma of grilled octopus, and in the evening the laughter of guests drifts through the lanes from the terraces.
Praia de Burgau is small but wonderfully sheltered – ideal for families, swimmers, and sunseekers. Thanks to its location in a bay, the water is usually calmer than on the wild beaches of the west coast. Whether swimming, building sandcastles, or simply drifting with the rhythm of the sea, this is the perfect place to enjoy a dose of seaside happiness.
If you’re feeling active, you can hike directly from the village along the cliffs – for example toward Praia da Luz or into the natural landscapes in the direction of Salema. The views of the endless blue ocean and the rugged coastline are spectacular.
What makes Burgau truly special is its relaxed atmosphere: people still greet each other in the street, life moves at its own gentle pace – and many visitors find themselves returning again and again.
