Vacation rentals with lake access in Praia de Mira

We had a wonderful weekend at this home in Dornes. It has a crazy charm, faithful in every way to the listing. Located at the edge of a peaceful river that almost looks like a lake, the scenery is simply beautiful and soothing. The house was perfectly suited to our group, comfortable and very well equipped. Claudio, our host, was very responsive and exceptionally available, which really made our stay easier. The village of Dornes is also full of charm. In short, a real little piece of paradise that we recommend without a second thought!

Wonderful, restored (now modern with nice furnishings) mill house. Very charming with lovely outdoor sitting areas and garden. Nice living room overlooking the river. Good location for visiting Coimbra and the schist villages and for doing nice hikes in the hills. Nice to have four mountain bikes to explore on. David was very responsive and provided good local recommendations.

My stay was just what I needed: a couple of peaceful days in the pristine mountains of Portugal. Very well, equipped kitchen, very comfy bed and nice linens …the host left me some vegetables and fruit from garden, which was amazing. A couple of stunning fireplaces in the house that I used every night Just enjoyable. Thank you.

Short stay to visit friends nearby. Marvelous private house. All brand new and clean. Great arrival and reception. Verry friendly tour by owner and a beautyful welcome table prepared with wine, fruit, jam, cake etc. Bottles of water in every bedroom, we felt right at home. Private parking behind the gate, lots of space for multiple cars. Beautifull views from the terraces around the house and a nice covered sitting area with small barbecue and plenty space. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great place to stay in the area.

It was amazing! The kids really loved their stay thanks to all the attention for them in the accommodation. Despite the rain, no one was bored! The place is beautiful, quiet place and so close to the city and attractions. We loved it, the best place to date with kids.

Paradise! A peaceful oasis, surrounded by the river, nature. An absolutely beautiful and comfortable house. We really recharged and our 3-day stay at Paula's was our best experience in Portugal. The surroundings are splendid: the small schist villages, the countryside, Coimbra, the houses of the surrounding villages, the gardens. We plan to come back one day, it's a house that creates memories!

Great stay! Maybe i’ll come back in the summer.

This was a true reset! ❤️ The surrounding nature is breathtaking — peaceful, quiet, with fresh air — the perfect setting for a relaxing family getaway.The hosts have thought through every little detail to make the stay as comfortable as being at home.The house is incredibly cozy — you can feel that every element was created with love. Here, we were able to forget all our worries, just be together, and enjoy the nature, calmness, and comfort. Thank you for the warm welcome — we’ll definitely be back!❤️

Great view from the kitchen window and lovely comfortable bedrooms

The apartment was so cozy, we were grateful for the little local treats that were left for us it was such a nice touch. The apartment was clean and had a beautiful view of the river from the bedroom windows. The small town was quaint and we enjoyed immensely walking around trying all the amazing restaurants and enjoying the beach. My family and I can’t wait to visit this amazing place again soon!!! Thank you for an amazing little getaway!!

Eduardo very attentive and sympathetic. Quiet town and location with nearby restaurants. Beautiful view of nature.

Spacious apartment, very very well-equipped. We feel welcomed by the decorative touches and touches (small slippers await you at the entrance). The host is available to meet expectations. Very professional rental. Only small point to improve, the bedding of the king size bed, otherwise everything else is perfect.

My stay there was a pleasure, felt at home.

The lady who hosted us was very friendly and responsive to our needs throughout the stay. Great for 2 people. In front of the shore and 5 min. walk to the sea. Fabulous! We loved it.

Very good and I recommend it

Very quiet apartment, total silence, impeccable cleaning the very comfortable bed which makes it easy and very much the rest. The apartment is a 15-minute walk from the baths that is done quietly by the river, communication was easy and quick, I highly recommend staying in this dwelling.

8 of us had an amazing week at Ria Surf House. The pool area was perfect for us adults and kids! Mariana was very helpful and responsive. Fab meals at the snack bar and Casa das Enguias. We didn’t have a car but Mariana put us in touch with a lovely local taxi driver who ensured we could get around when not walking. Also took the train to Porto and Aveiro, great days out. The beach was amazing - a walk through a forest to get there - a wild and remote feel. Many thanks!

Great house. Great surroundings. Loved the pool area and the boats at the lake.

Staying with Jorge was a very different experience. It's a historic place and in an amazing location. Both the building has its physical structure with these very unique characteristics linked to the history of Condexa and his lifestyle, as well as being in front of a historical area with more than 2,000 years made by the Romans gives a totally different air for the lodging. Not to mention that the location is perfect for those who will use a base to rotate the region of Coimbra, Coninbriga, Pombal and others in the surrounding area. Countryside climate with easy access, excellent location and a good structure for a great stay , as well as easy and responsive communication with Jorge. Thanks for our hosting. ALOHA!

Beautiful house, tastefully decorated, spacious and very clean. Very kind owner. Located in rural area, on the edge of Ria Aveiro. Pleasant pedestrian and cycling trail 2 steps away. On the shoreline of the lagoon. The city of Aveiro and the ocean beaches 15 minutes' drive away. Really great house.

We had a brilliant time at Canto Do Zêzere - the house is really clean, spacious and comfortable, and the lakeside location is absolutely stunning. Boating on the lake was a highlight! We would definitely come back again.

This is a great space in a real out-of-the-way part of Portugal. Tired of big city tourism? Try this property. Tiny villages dot the hills and you get an old world sense of Portugal here. The pool is the real star of the property here (as are Eric's three dogs, one of which lounged with us each morning) as it overlooks he view of the river. We did use the kayaks as well. It is hard to get to them down a very steep hill with ladders and a bit of minor repelling. Not for those with a bad knee or hip. Which gets me to, accessing the apartments, particularly the lower unit, is tricky. Steep, slanting and uneven steps that can be a little slippery. Perhaps not for the elderly. Hint for improvement would be to upgrade the furnishings and kitchenware. The knives couldn't cut an orange.
