Holiday rentals with beach access in Costa Occidental

Jonathan was a great host. Super responsive and communicative. The location is close enough to all the bars and restaurants to walk in minutes but far enough to have some quiet. The outdoor terrace was great and the whole place was clean and comfortable. We made a mistake and locked the keys in the bedroom on accident and as to get them retrieved so keep them with you at all times in case the wind blows the door closed. We’d definitely stay again!

A beautiful tiny home in an idyllic setting! Fatima is an excellent host, very warm and welcoming. The fresh orange juice made onsite was a highlight, and the gardens spanning the property were lovely. Photos can’t quite capture the magic! The space is very small, so is certainly cozy for two people plus luggage. The kitchen is helpful for simple meals. We were provided with ample towels and comfortable sheets. Also, there is a tourist tax to be payed in cash during your stay that is not included in the Airbnb charge. The property is in a rural setting, but within driving distance to numerous towns, including Tavira and Fuseta. We enjoyed a fresh fish dinner in Fuseta at a restaurant recommended by Fatima.

We had a wonderful stay at this apartment! The absolutely stunning sea view is breathtaking, and the long sandy beach just across the street made it easy to enjoy the seaside every day. The location is fantastic—full of great restaurants and even places to rent bikes, so you can easily explore the beautiful coastline on two wheels. The apartment itself is clean, fresh, and modern, with all the kitchen appliances you need to cook comfortably. The bed is really comfy, and I loved that there were some books and even table games available for relaxing evenings in. The host was very responsive and helpful throughout my stay. Overall, I highly recommend this apartment for anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable seaside getaway!

Aníbal and his wife are such a lovely couple and are most helpful in providing information on what to see, how to get there and where to eat. The apartment is charming and cosy and the terrace is lovely. The minute we walked in we felt very much at home. Location is great - everywhere is walkable. It’s just across from the neighborhood bakery that we had breakfast there. We walked to the boat jetty to take a short ride to the lovely beaches of Tavira island. Altogether a wonderful time in Tavira. And we’ll certainly recommend Anibal’s place.

Beautiful place and area.

Excellent place full of attention from Manuel. Extremely convenient with lots of useful things. Perfect communication! I recommend closing my eyes

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.

Host was very responsive & met us to walk us into the place. The photo for check in needed updating, it’s now at KK’s Thai Massage for a more accurate entrance area, but we rented a car and had free parking right in front (limited but got lucky!) Place was very clean and the balcony was the perfect spot for our morning coffee and resting at night. We walked to all the shops, pleasantly surprised just how much there was to do around! We ate at Terrazo Italian, incredible food! Beach was beautiful, definitely don’t suggest having a large suitcase tho for parking or elevator access :) Otherwise host was super nice, place was super clean & definitely bang for the buck for an air bnb.

The house to disengage, in simplicity, refreshing. It is very well equipped with dishes, linens, we have the impression of arriving at friends who have left everything available. The big plus is this beautiful beach 2 steps away . It just went too fast

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

Casa de Bandeira is one of the best Airbnb's I have stayed at. Didn't really know what to expect from Albufeira and it is a bit "lively" with bars etc. in town but this place is a complete oasis. Totally near enough for an easy walk to varied bars and restaurants in five minutes, but very quiet once inside. I'm sure it's easy enough to drive or Uber to supermarkets but there is a Spar a five minute walk away which is small but generally well stocked for convenience. The villa is just beautiful, spotless on arrival and cleaned every other day. Comfortable beds, nice linen and towels. Bathrobes and slippers provided. It is really spacious and you definitely do not feel on top of each other. The absolute piece de resistance though is the rooftop. Equipped with a small fridge, shower and toilet, it is an amazing place to spend the day and/or evening. Originally we decided not to heat the pool (May) but once we decided to do so, we spent hours in there. Thank you so much, we will be back!

We had a lovely week in Tavira. The property was spotless, well equipped and very comfortable. We particularly loved the roof terrace.

Great place. Lots of mosquitos locally but great house and locality. Maria was wonderful

A fantastic house, very special, traditional and comfortable in a totally central location but quiet at the same time. José is a very kind and attentive host to our needs. A place to come back to, no doubt!

A delighful experience from booking through to checking out. Mauro’s place is stylish, comfortable and right in the middle of all of the great things that Faro has to offer. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would definitely stay here again. Thank you Mauro!

Just had a 12 day break at Villa Charme and it was a dream stay. Pictures don’t do the Villa justice. Beautiful pool that the kids (young and old) loved and lots of outdoor space. Fernando was a wonderful host - friendly and knowledgeable and always available to help. We absolutely recommend a stay here - you won’t be disappointed. Lynette

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

An exceptional view, a perfect apartment, lots of space, easy access to the apartment, the market and the restaurant! It was superb! There was a lot of work in the area which did not bother us but it justifies our evaluation of the neighborhood. Very, very responsive host!!! We really appreciated his support when needed! Highly recommended!

Gorgeous home, very clean. In a great location next to shops and restaurants, and a very short walk from the beach. Would definitely return!

The accommodation is just like the photos, spectacular. Ideal for a couple. Very easy and quick to communicate with Ana and Jesus, who recommended places to visit and restaurants in the area. We'll be back.

I have stayed at many Airbnb apartments over the years and I have never experienced the professionalism, adaptability and helpfulness of our host Hélia. In addition, The apartment was absolutely beautiful with all the amenities and the extra touches of bottle of wine, water and tray of snacks are what makes this such a unique experience. I am not surprised that this apartment is always booked. Thank you

The accommodation, hosts, and location were all like a dream—filled with love and beauty. The owners were incredibly kind and caring, always helpful while also respecting our privacy. Our whole family enjoyed every moment, from watching the golfers to driving through the orange groves, and having fun on the trampoline and in the pool. Everything was top-notch. If I had to search for a negative (and I really had to think hard to find one), it would be just the occasional thought of whether a golfer's ball might come flying our way! 😂

Carlota’s place is located in amazing Villa with beautiful surroundings! Amazing beaches to get to and her local recommendations were excellent ! The pool was great but unfortunately due to the weather it was a bit too cold to use and shower facilities were under construction. The only downside is the bed option, as described from the picture, the main bedroom is with 2 twin beds and a sofa bed. One big bed would’ve been more comfortable but breathtakingly beautiful view makes everything ok. We had some issue with laundry machine as it wasn’t in a good condition but we cleaned it and bought strong scent laundry detergent made it usable again! Wonderful memories from the beautiful landscape and activities and especial thanks to warm and heart full neighbor downstairs! Thank you again and it was a pleasant stay!

Miguel was so great to work with. We had a tired and hot kids, and I did not read the directions for entry. Host was so helpful getting us in. Property was so beautiful, and area has so much to explore, as well as live music. Read the directions for entry, much easier to work through if you do that before you arrive. The tech of the building is so cool, as well as the layout of the condo. Would definitely return here. They had some great kids toys and the pool was perfect.
