Casa Três | atelier RUA

With attention to the rich Portuguese heritage and the modern traveller’s lifestyle, the new hospitality brand theAddresses aims for enriching, memorable experiences when staying in one of their converted guesthouses. Through a combination of design, location, privacy and unique concierge service, the Addresses act as the perfect guide into the Portuguese way of life. After 'Casa Um' and 'Casa Dois', theAddresses now launch their third guesthouse 'Casa Três' in the town of Vila Real de Santo Antonio, perched between the Guadiana river and the Atlantic ocean. Once a merchant’s house, this stately home has been renovated into an open and spacious property, featuring a bright courtyard with an old citrus tree and a glistening outdoor pool. Casa Três welcomes guests in three bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms and was renovated by the award-winning Portuguese architectural firm Atelier Rua with a carefully curated interior by the creative studio Studio Stories.

THEADDRESSES

When booking a holiday with theAddresses, in addition to a fine example of architecture, you will also receive a range of special services and a curated guide to the best places to visit in the region. The result of years of shared passion and many trips to the Algarve by theAddresses founders, Bert and Ludovic, who now wish to share all their addresses and experiences with like-minded friends and guests.

With The Portugal Collection, Bert has been supplying the best Portuguese wines to top restaurants in Belgium for years. Ludovic is active as creative director in the world of music and entertainment. Together they founded 'The Madeira Collection', a unique collection of vintage Madeira wines. The two share a common love for Portuguese culture, nature, modo de vida and of course Portuguese wines and cuisine.

AS CASAS

Each of the houses at theAddresses has its own story and is located in an authentic location. Thanks to a collaboration with the best Portuguese architectural firms and the meticulous composition of the interior, each house is situated in an area where old and new collide, and you can enjoy the comfort of a stylish hotel. Each room has its own bathroom, there is always a large outdoor area or garden with swimming pool, and you will find a nice selection of objects, products and books everywhere. To enjoy on holiday, or to take home with you.

Each of our houses tells a story from Portugal’s rich heritage. We honour this by enhancing the original architectural concepts with contemporary influences.

Casa Um, Casa Dois and Casa Três are currently ready to receive guests. All three houses have been renovated by award-winning Portuguese architectural firm Atelier Rua with a carefully curated interior by creative studio Studio Stories.

Casa Três

Located in the furthest eastern point of Portugal’s Algarve, with Spain just across the Guadiana river, Vila Real de Santo Antonio is a truly hidden gem. It is situated on the banks of the Guadiana River that separates Portugal from Spain and flows into the Atlantic Ocean. Near the middle of the historic, pedestrian centre and with a charming marina in the distance, sits Casa Três. Once a merchant’s house, this stately home has been renovated into an open, spacious property.

Upon entering Casa Três, you’ll feel welcomed by the airy and bright courtyard, where the old citrus tree and glistening outdoor pool will make you forget you’re in the city centre. Centred around this shaded oasis are three large bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom and lounge area. The multiple roof terraces, saturated by the afternoon sun, are perfect for late-night dinners or early breakfasts.

On the ground floor guests can unwind in the spacious and ambient living room and kitchen, punctuated by a vaulted ceiling and served by four balcony openings in direct relation to the back patio.

The chosen finishing materials compose and complement the amplitude of the spaces, in their tones and plasticity. The floors, countertops and sinks in terrazzo and the cement mosaic present in all water areas, both in gray. All carpentry in dark wood slatted.

Casa Três welcomes up to 6 people.
