Assouline Comporta Bliss

"A thoroughly compelling pitch to book tickets and visit."
- Vogue

Sometimes compared to Brigitte Bardot's Saint-Tropez in the 1950s, Comporta, with its relaxed pace and artistic community, is the ideal destination for those looking to stray off course. It is the new favourite of personalities such as Jacques Grange, Farida Khelfa, François Dumas, the Espírito Santo family and Madonna, who on weekends shares photos of her children going to the beach and riding horses in the dunes of nearby Carvalhal. This fishing village has vast beaches, and is a patchwork of rice fields and an ecosystem full of storks and frogs. All provide a serene backdrop for the distinctive houses found there: rustic cabanas and huts with thatched roofs that reflect the carefree lifestyle that has become the hallmark of Comporta. This distinctive setting challenges the minds of architects and designers, producing unique spaces that delightfully blur the line between interior and exterior. The region's characteristic cobalt blue is reflected from the sky and sea to the walls, shutters and designer pieces that adorn the houses, both picturesque and bold. Discover the beauty and joy of simplicity with Comporta Bliss.
