Family-friendly holiday rentals in Barão de São João

A really lovely villa, photos don’t really do it justice. It’s very spacious and there was plenty of room for our group, 6 adults and 3 young children. The pool and play area were very popular. Lisa and David were great hosts. They provided everything we needed and more and were very good with communication and info. Some lovely personal touches for our stay left in the villa too which were much appreciated. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this villa and hope to return again sometime.

The accommodation was one of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed at, the views in the morning on the rooftop where unforgettable, the host was very helpful and approachable when needing some guidance, the only concern is that we didn’t stay for longer!! Would 100% recommend

The apartment is huge, peaceful, fully stocked with lots of extras. Outdoor pools with stunning views. Close to old Lagos and beaches. We really enjoyed our stay.

We had a lovely stay and enjoyed how convenient the location was. We enjoyed relaxing in the backyard space.

Very good stay in Vladimir's accommodation. Responsive, pleasant host, who advises good places. The accommodation was very good, suitable for children. The park's pools are very good (suitable for toddlers and small children) with a snack bar next door. Very good location, close to shops and close to beaches. Anyway, we're so excited!

Paula a friendly & communicative host. The Air B&B was stunning and very well kept. Would recommend to friends & family. A great location!

Everything was perfect! The accommodation was in perfect condition, very clean and close to the city center on foot. The pool is a real plus! I recommend it:)

Our stay was wonderful, the townhouse is beautiful and in a very peaceful spot, yet so close to town! The hot tub was great in the evenings. It was super clean and has beautiful Portuguese charm. The space is large and private, it is nice to park your car right at the door to bring luggage in. Communication and recommendations were good. We would definitely stay again when in the beautiful Algarve! Thanks, Mia

We had booked it for my 70th with all our family. Unfortunately my husband too ill and wasn’t allowed to fly. The rest of the family and grandchildren had the best time. The villa was as it was in the pictures, spacious and clean. The pool was spotless as the pool cleaner came to keep it maintained. It’s the first time my family had been to Portugal and they just loved it and would recommend anyone booking this villa would be very happy. They are due back today and the feedback from them has been very good. Infact we might just book this for next year. Steve and Natalie have been amazing hosts. We all would Definitely Highly Recommend this Villa and Location. 5 Star ⭐ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a pleasure to stay at Johann's. The house is impeccable and the environment is so peaceful! I highly recommend it. Thanks again for this week!

Our stay was wonderful! After a long week of traveling it was a great place to settle down with gorgeous views and everything you need within walking distance. There were multiple options for beaches whether we wanted more quiet versus more public with food/drinks available. Grilling on the rooftop made for beautiful family dinners with a cool grill and amazing views. Laura was very helpful with showing us around, providing recommendations, and even letting us back into the home when we locked ourselves out! Easy drive (30-45 mins) to Lagos or Faro for day trips. Overall definitely recommend!

Honestly, I can’t say enough about Ana on how she went above and beyond to make my weekend celebrating my birthday and bachelorette with my friends special! She went as far as to in on the surprise to ensure that I was completely blown away! The villa is spectacular and my only regret is the number of balloons we left lying around when we left (sorry Ana). The rooms were spacious, immaculately clean, great convenient location with a grocery store and cafes nearby. Also wasn’t too far to get to the main strip! I highly recommend booking this gorgeous villa!

Everything was good. Were received at the house. Lurdes was very quick to respond to requests. Beautiful little village from which you can get everywhere quite quickly. House was clean and there was everything you needed. Thank you

We stayed for a week with our baby and had a wonderful time. It‘s a super peaceful, beautiful place - especially the surrounding grounds are magical. The house itself is simple but cozy and very charming, the terrace overlooking the property‘s nature is a wonderful place to hang out and chill, and we made good use of the BBQ and outside shower. At some point we had a power outage, but Ana dealt with it promptly and professionally. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a retreat in nature.

We can warmly recommend Carlos's house. It is clean and has everything you need. We felt comfortable and enjoyed the stay very much. The village is quiet and picturesque. There are many beaches and shopping within easy reach by car. Just perfect.

The apartment was lovely and felt like home. It had an excellent location and well equipped would be an understatement. Everything was there what was needed and more (like sand toys and beach stuff). Sílvia should be rewarded as the host of the century. I have never felt so welcomed. Old town was in 1 minute walk. Good restaurants and cafes were on the same street.

We had a fantastic stay at Susana’s place. The accommodation was beautiful and spotlessly clean (very happy to let my little one crawl around on the floors it was so clean!). Much bigger than the photos. Pool area was very peaceful. Lots of amenities without being cluttered. Well stocked kitchen and generous welcome pack. Restaurants and beautiful beaches within walking distance. Great communication and very helpful host. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Great place inside a resort. 10 min walk to beach through peacefull village. Would rent again.

We were completely happy with the place. The apartment was even more spacious than the pictures showed and the bed was outstanding. It was also great that we could use bicycles for free. Luis was a great host, always available and took care of everything.

Stunningly beautiful and private oasis! You get all the privacy you want in this gorgeous house with an amazing eco garden. The natural pool is great…no chlorine, no itch. Jan is a super nice and responsive host. We’ be back

We had a very pleasant stay in the neat apartment. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom modern and neat. There was a very spacious terrace, overlooking the trees, where it was wonderful to have breakfast... The swimming pool was large and neat. The town of Lagos is within walking distance of the apartment. Upon arrival, the grandfather was waiting for us at the apartment. We were very kindly received and given a clear explanation and tour. Thank you Ines and Georges and Grandpa!

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.

The AirBnB was really dreamy. Great location, beautiful property with fantastic pool and great outdoor kitchen in the middle of nature. If you love animals (like us), this is the place to be. Birgit was a super likeable and attentive hostess. We got super good tips for the area (beaches and food spots) from her and were able to explore the Algarve so perfectly. We felt very comfortable right away and are sad that we had to leave after a super nice week. The Quinta Avalon is a real heart recommendation, especially because of the dogs and cats, for which Birgit offers a great home. We were very pleased to be their guest and would come back at any time. Best regards

Isabelle is a great host. The house is very well equipped and the place is stunning!
