The house is nice and cozy. The traditional decoration makes it cheerful and colourful. Someone (a friend of owner) gave us keys and also kept some eggs +onion+ tomato. Well, we didn’t consumed them as our schedule was not permitting cooking. But we are thankful for the hospitality.

What a beautiful, quiet location with an amazing garden and lovely swimming pool. Filipe is a fantastic host, he had clearly explained to us how we could check in and during the stay you can always reach him with questions. The rooms are super clean and large. It is nice that you can use the shared kitchen that is equipped with all kinds of kitchen utensils. We only used the kitchen for our breakfast because in the low season there is no breakfast served. That was no problem because there is a Lidl nearby where you can get fresh bread and groceries. We definitly recommend taking a rental car because there is so much to see in this area where you will not get without a rental car (Santa Cruz, Ericeira, Cascais, Sintra, Obidos, etc.). We really enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it to anyone!

I had a lovely stay here! The owners were extremely welcoming and showed me the entire place. Because I was only there for one night I could not use all facilities. However, there was a nice outside area and you could grab bikes to cycle around town for free. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped and everything was spotlessly clean

I can’t imagine a more perfect place to stay in this area of Portugal. This was a last minute change of itinerary for us and a highlight of the trip. The house has so much character and so well appointed. The location is very close, just minutes to the coastline. Our room was very nice and bed super comfortable. The breakfast was amazing. 10 stars!

The location is central to everything and could not be better. There are many local shops and restaurants and the beach is less than 5 minutes walking. The breakfast is very good with several options. Every member of staff at the hotel went above and beyond and made this stay truly exceptional. They checked in on their guests as they passed through reception, gave recommendations and local knowledge, assisted with bookings and were overall just very kind! The room comes with air conditioning as standard and worked very well.

Noah is perfect for a relaxed family holiday - even with smaller children. The staff is friendly, the location with seaview is amazing and the whole surf house is designed in a great style. They offer a lot of activities like surfing of course, yoga, skating or a barbecue at the terrace overlooking the sunset. The infinity pool was quite big and the water was heated. Santa Cruz is a really nice little town - we rented bikes at Noah's to explore the surroundings. We enjoyed it a lot and definitely wanna come again.
