Spanning 35 acres along Portugal’s stunning coastline, Atlantic Club Comporta prepares for its summer debut. Blurring the line between real estate design and hotel with swish amenities, services and experiences, this private luxury residential club is about an hour from Lisbon on the western coast.

“Atlantic Club Comporta was created in response to a fundamental shift in how people want to live and travel. Owners and guests today are seeking space, privacy, and a genuine sense of belonging,” said Dietrich E. Rogge, founder, Atlantic Club Comporta. “Comporta has long embodied that spirit, with its understated beauty and resistance to overdevelopment. Atlantic Club is first and foremost a private residential community — one that brings people together through shared values and a deep connection to place — while offering the amenities, services and experiences typically associated with luxury hospitality.”

Sustainability and community are high priorities, with features that include a number of bespoke services such as housekeeping, garden maintenance, private chefs and concierge support. Shared spaces include a clubhouse, on-site marketplace and an area of curated wellness experiences.

Villas range from four to eight bedrooms with private pools, terraces, saunas and indoor-outdoor living spaces. Designer and architect Jacques Grange created the interiors, with landscaping by renowned garden designer Madison Cox.

“There’s great beauty in simplicity,” said Cox. “I want to capture that spirit Jacques is imagining and create a palette of plants, and there is a multitude of resources in southern Portugal: the pomegranate and fig trees, the lavender and grasses that flourish here. I start with observing the winds, the plants, the soil.”

Booking inquiries and reservations can be made via the club’s website, or by contacting info@atlanticclubcomporta.com.

The Return of Gateside Goodbyes? New TSA Program Lets Non-Flyers Past Security

It was once a distant memory: walking with loved ones to their gate to see them off, waving goodbye and watching their plane take off. This all ended after Sept. 11, 2001, in which greater security measures were put in place to account for each and every person who goes through security checkpoints. The Transportation Security Administration was established two months after the terrorist attack to prevent other hijackings, creating a unified federal administration to screen bags and passengers. Before, it was up to the individual airlines to hire their own security for screenings.
