Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Alcantarilha

We had a super stay in casa da tia. Alte is a charming and quiet village and the cottage is right in the middle. Close to the river where you can go swimming and also close to some bars. The cottage itself had everything you need and was brand new. Recommended!

Great house, tidy, cool and wonderful hosts! Lucy the house cat is wonderful and we’d highly recommend for a peaceful holiday! Would recommend hiring a car though as it is 20mins+ from most things!

Very large villa set in a very private setting. Great for a family holiday with private pool and massive outdoor spaces. Bedrooms were large and had plenty of storage. Kitchen was very well equipped, although a number of items are now quite dated and would benefit from updating. Very quiet and peaceful setting - great if you want to get away from it all! But also 7-10 min drive to beach and local town/shops. Bella was a kind and responsive host. She replaced the toaster on the same day we told her it wasn’t working. A fantastic place. The only criticism i have is that the upstairs bedroom area (with the two single beds) smelled very musty. We stayed in another AirBnB in Lisbon and it had the same issue so I wonder if high humidity levels are a factor. There were air fresheners placed around but if you have a sensitive nose then this would be a problem for you.

My favourite Airbnb experience to date. It was stunningly decorated, cozy and inviting - we enjoyed spending time in the space in-between beach hangs and afternoon strolls in the area. Maggie was friendly, welcoming, responsive and kind. She was a wonderful host! The home is close to so many beaches, restaurants and things to do. Truly perfect location and experience over all. Not to mention, Maggie gave us incredible recommendations for restaurants and things to do. 20/10 recommend. A dream vacation in Lagos.

We stayed here for a week and it was perfect! The beaches are only a 15-20 minute walk away or a 10 minute bike ride! Definitely recommend that. The house is great and the garden is beautiful! The plunge pool was perfect for the hot days! I would 100% recommend this place :)

For a few years my family (parents, sisters, nieces) had planned to spend a holiday together, but it took a while to find a time that would work for everyone. And then we had to find a place that not only could accommodate small children, but was also big enough for everyone and offered a comfortable and accessible place. We found all of that in this unbelievably nice house. It clearly exceeded our expectations and is one of the main reasons that we had such memorable holidays. The place is spacious, cozy right from the start, and has everything we needed during our 2-week stay. Kathleen was always very responsive and helpful. As I told her in our last message before leaving, if I could give 6 stars I would and so would all of my family members. Thanks again!

Actually, so much has already been written about this great Airbnb. We agree with ALL positive reviews. If you are planning an individual holiday in the Algarve, you should book here. It was fantastic. Our life in the almost 2 weeks took place mostly outside. It is so nice to enjoy the first coffee/tea on the roof terrace in the morning or wine in the evening. Our 2nd favorite place was the courtyard with kitchen counter. We loved having breakfast here and enjoying the affogato in between. We had planned not to cook. However, it was so much fun in this well-equipped kitchen. So, there were small dishes or salads in the evening. Restaurants, the small market hall, the local grocery stores and 2 discount stores are within walking distance. We liked Silves very much. There are good opportunities to shop for beautiful things here. Many thanks to Marta + Levi for the communication + the new dishwasher

Our experience at Michelle's house was excellent. The house is super cozy, clean and well cared for. Located in the center of a typical Portuguese village and at the same time close (by car) to the beaches. The house has all the basic utensils needed for cooking and for small children. Just like us, our 1-year and 8-month-old son loved it!

Great place right on the sand of a beautiful beach, with a short ferry ride into old town Faro. Ideal location.

Beautiful place in a lovely location (quick walk down to the beach!) with such a lovely & knowledgeable host, Patricia. It was so peaceful and we had such a great time. The beach nearby was so nice - peaceful and beautiful with nice sand. I worked remotely for the days we were there and the internet was great for video calls. We didn’t use the kitchen much however noticed it was fully stocked with all the necessary essentials. We definitely want to spend a longer time here in the future.

We had a wonderful few days at Monica’s Blue holiday home. This was our third Airbnb in Portugal and was by far the nicest and cleanest stay on our trip. Monica was there to great us on our arrival and she answered all our questions about the apartment and the surrounding area. She is a lovely person and we enjoyed meeting her. It is very obvious that she is a super host!! We appreciated the sunny patio and we loved the morning beach walks and all the many bars and restaurants in the area. Would have loved to stay longer and would highly recommend Monica’s place!!

Beautiful place and area.

Amazing localization, beautiful beach! The place was peaceful, clean, and stylish. One of the best places we've been to, totally recommend!

Lovely host, lovely apartment in a great location. we would definitely recommend.

We spent our vacation in this great beach apartment for the 2nd time and enjoyed Mark's hospitality. The apartment is perfect for our needs: On the one hand, this wonderful Praia da Falesia is "on the doorstep", on the other hand, you can quickly reach the west and east of Portugal by car to discover other beautiful places in the Algarve. Bars, restaurants and supermarkets are in the immediate vicinity and there is also an excellent cocktail bar with tapas to end a nice summer evening. We will be happy to come back.

Joana is an exceptional host and her place has so much charm and character. We immediately felt at home in her peaceful retreat. Joana stocked the refrigerator and provided a welcome basket with all kinds of treats which was so kind. The house was so cute and comfortable, had all we needed and we enjoyed the luxury of a private pool. The house is conveniently situated to Old Town and we were able to walk there & to the Ponta da Piedade boardwalk hike. Thank you Joana for sharing your spectacular home with us and we totally recommend your place to others!

Marco's accommodation was really great. 9/10 points - why: I thought, according to the photos, that it was the neighboring house with a pool. We were on the first floor and actually I prefer to stay on the ground floor with my 5 year old son, which unfortunately was not quite clear. Top was: not even 5 minutes walk to the beach, great restaurants on the beach, expensive supermarket just around the corner. The apartment is super clean and the kitchen has everything you absolutely need for self-catering but nothing more, no pasta strainer and no lemon squeezer, for example. Tableware also minimally from the number of pieces (6 glasses). Marco and his mom are super nice and helpful at check-in, furthermore we did not need them, as it was not our first Portugal vacation. Price-performance with pool top - you can't rule anything out. Portimão is a great location, 50 minutes by car from Faro Airport and 30 minutes from Lagos. Best regards, Jessica & Family.

Maria was a great host and so helpful with anything requested. We had an issue with the lobby entrance of the building and she resolved this by communicating with the building management. We had a great time in the accomodation and felt relaxed for our week abroad with the children

Fabulous location! Beach, amazing boardwalk, and town very near, just lots of stairs! But that is beautiful Portugal! Views from porch were fantastic; everything you needed was in the kitchen and it was a very welcoming place. We didn’t use the pool, but it is a good size and well maintained. Master shower is a bit tight, but a big beautiful bath is 5 steps away, so really no big deal. I would definitely book here again if the opportunity arises!

Paulo is a fantastic host, our very first Air bnb ! We would definitely recommend as it was just the perfect holiday for us! Lots of walks and beaches are beautiful, all within a few minutes walk. A great small supermarket with Coffee bar again just a few minutes walk. Brilliant , loved it!

We loved staying at Marlene's place! The location can't be beat. The views were amazing and we enjoyed the easy access to the beach and the walking trails along the cliffs. We found the walk to town totally doable (10-15mins) with also a few restaurants even closer (Mar, Luca's rooftop, etc.). The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked. We would definitely stay here again.

We arrived late after our flight was delayed and Rui was there waiting to check us in and show us around. Apartment in lovely location close to shops, restaurants and beach. We were there with 2 small kids and had great time. Rui was in contact during the week to make sure all was ok and very quick to reply to any questions. Had a fabulous week here would highly recommend.

We had a fantastic week in Elisa’s apartment, the view is beautiful! So lovely to see and hear the sea everyday. It’s a short walk into town with lots of great bars and restaurants, we also easily got parked nearby. Elisa was a great host, very responsive and I recommend reading her blog with loads of great recommendations for exploring the algarve. Thank you Elisa!

Wow!! What an amazing place! One of the best Airbnbs I have ever stayed in! The photos don’t do it justice! So much nicer!! Super clean, tastefully decorated, very well equipped, fantastic rooftop terrace, and gorgeous beach views! The location is fantastic, literally a two minute walk to the beautiful Meia Praia beach. Carolina is so friendly and was super attentive during our stay! Highly recommend and will definitely be back soon!!
