Pick the part of town first, then the hotel. Each one says what it's like, what to eat there and how far the sights are.
The only part of the region you can do on foot: a few streets of shops, a grocery and bakery, and most of the village dinners. The beach is a drive or a 15-minute walk away.
The food: Cavalariça, Almo, Gomes, São João, Cervejaria da Comporta, Comporta Flavours and Sado are all in or at the edge of the village.
