Casa da Lila: a cool town house in the historic old town of Silves

We spent almost a week in this real dream house at the beginning of October. It is exactly as many of the previous comments have described it; when you stand on the street in front of it, you cannot imagine the miracle of space that opens up when you enter the house. Many small and large details that contribute to the extremely successful overall design of this great house. There is plenty of space in the house and on the various terraces, nothing is missing for normal use. Contact with the owners, the handover, etc. went smoothly.

Good recommendations for restaurants in the area, which we were very happy to use. The location is absolutely top-notch, a quiet environment and you are in the center of Silves, a nice little town, in just a few minutes. Overall, we can only recommend the Casa da Lila to anyone for a vacation in this region.

A dream house, we had a wonderful relaxing holiday in this dream house with our 3 teenagers as a family of 5.

Very clean, top designer furnishings, lots of space, very central location in the heart of the old town, very quick walk to shops, cafes, market hall, restaurants.

Brilliant plunge pool, fully equipped kitchen, you can cook star-class meals there, enough space and storage, 3 balconies and of course a wonderful evening atmosphere every evening = sunset, starry sky. If I had had 1,000,000 balloons with me, I would have tied them all to the house and let the house fly to Switzerland.🥰

We spent the winter in Casa da Lila in February/March and felt at home from day one. The house exceeded all our expectations. It is really even more beautiful than the photos suggest. The contact with the owners was very warm and the service around the house was just perfect.

Silves is a very nice little place with lots of good restaurants and cafes. Beautiful beaches and bays are just a few minutes away by car.

We stayed in this fantastic house at the end of January 2025! Everything is simply perfect: from the contact with the owners and the easy interaction with Natalia; the architecture and furnishings; the many details – EVERYTHING has been thought of! A place to feel at home!
An asset to the lovely town of Silves with its excellent restaurants and cafés! The location is central yet very quiet…we can fully agree with what has already been said – it’s worth a visit!

Four of us enjoyed this beautiful house at the beginning of October.
Each level has something special and the terraces offer varied views over Silves. Great opportunities to sit outside in sunny weather, but even when it rains you can stay inside.
What I particularly noticed was that the bed linen and towels smelled great. It was sparkling clean when we arrived, Natalia was available at all times, the location is central and we felt at home from the very first second.
We can recommend this house without reservation!

We had 5 great days at Casa da Lila in November. Everything was perfect: architecture, design, interior, materials and views – we felt completely at home. The kitchen is fully equipped and it’s actually really fun to cook and eat there. Despite the beautiful town of Silves and the many nearby natural attractions, you hardly want to leave the house. Communication with the hosts was very pleasant right from the start and handing over the keys was uncomplicated. Casa da Lila – an absolute highlight for us!

Loved every minute in this beautiful house in this beautiful town Silves. We could have stayed forever. The house is amazingly equipped, very stylish and comfortable – the perfect haven ‘in between the locals’, while exploring all the nearby beaches and villages. Even just spending the day at home is a treat – with great restaurants and groceries nearby in Silves. Ideal for a perfect holiday. We will return!

We had a wonderful time in the city of Silves and especially in the Casa da Lila: It is individually and stylishly furnished, the comfort is very good and the communication with Herman Koppe is extremely pleasant and reliable. The reception in the house itself was very warm in every respect, special thanks also to the very nice Natalia! So all in all it was a great pleasure!

We would like to thank the owners of this beautiful house… a very nice renovation. A beautiful show every evening… we already miss the sunset. We had a wonderful stay… The house is located in the historic center of Silves, a perfect location to explore the village and other beautiful places in the Algarve. We appreciated all the little extras that were in the house: such as the Algarve guides, beautiful books on architecture, and the “Rituals” toiletries that were discovered and made available in the bathrooms! You will have understood, we highly recommend this address, our family was conquered !!! We would also like to thank Natalia for her welcome and her recommendations (sights, restaurants…). An unforgettable stay… In short, don’t change anything…!!!

Casa da Lila is a comfortable house in every season, the light of the Algarve in all 3 floors, beautiful moods and panoramic views of the surrounding countryside with a special view sitting at the dining table watching the flight of storks…
There is nothing missing in the kitchen and bathrooms, our bed was wonderfully comfortable. The owners’ passion for design, materials and furniture gives the house a unique flair. Light and cheerfully furnished, unobtrusive and with a sure taste, you discover furniture and rooms more and more with the changing light during the day. We quickly felt welcome and safe every day. This applies to the special place Silves with its history, its proud castle, the cathedral is worth seeing, the old town and the friendly people, as well as to the surroundings with pictorial rock coasts and beaches, the Monchique mountains, the cork oak forests , the vegetation, the blossoms, the fruits and the scents…
thank you very much that we were allowed to be your guests, we would gladly come back here.
