Villa holiday rentals in Estômbar

This place? Unreal. Total privacy, a yard that feels like your own secret garden, and ocean views so good you’ll start questioning your life choices for not living here. It’s just steps to the boardwalk and a short walk to Carvoeiro’s best restaurants — no car required, just some sunscreen and a loose plan. We grabbed bikes from E-Bike Tours Carvoeiro and cruised around like smug locals. Perfect way to see more without pretending you’re into hiking. Inside, the vibe is clean and crisp — very “modern magazine spread,” very white. Just a heads-up: there’s a surprise step between the living room and kitchen that’ll keep you on your toes (literally). Consider it a test of spatial awareness. Bottom line: peaceful, stylish, and unfairly scenic. Book it, drop your bags, and start living like you're better than everyone back home.

We were a group of 10 people and had a wonderful time at Sam's villa The facilities were perfect, everything was clean and looked like the pictures. Sam was a perfect hostess who was always helpful and available. The villa is in a quiet area, but you are within 10-15 minutes by car to the lively places. We would definitely come back again!

amazing villa. had such a great 5 days here. villa is stunning and hosts were excellent. swimming pool was a lovely temperature and villa was exactly as described. we would love to stay there again! only slight negative was it was very hot and although there was no air conditioning.(which we were aware of) the fans in the bedrooms could be a bit better!

We had such a wonderful week at Villa Ocean Dreams! Giuliana’s home was even more beautiful and spacious than the photos! The location was fantastic with the beach so close and the boardwalk to walk into the marina or town right across the street. The pool and hot tub made our week even better. We spent much of our time in the comfortable gathering areas by the pool, under the shade and awnings upstairs and downstairs, or playing games in the evening at the dining table. All of the beds were very comfortable and the air conditioning was perfect. The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals for our group of five and was so well stocked with cooking utensils and appliances. Giuliana was so helpful and welcoming, making us feel right at home.

If you are looking for a beautiful location to unplug and relax, look no further than Bernardo & Laura’s place. The photos don’t do justice to the breathtaking views. Their place is in a very peaceful and quiet spot in the mountains; while still being only about 35 minutes from the amazing beaches of the Algarve. We were a group of 6 people, including 2 young kids, and we always felt very comfortable in the spacious accommodations. Laura was super responsive and helpful in all of our communications and was able to accommodate an early check-in, which we appreciated after a long flight. We would definitely recommend this home.

We had a great stay at the place. Jacky is very responsive and kind! Beautiful location with a great view, 10/10 would recommend!

We had a fantastic 8 nights at the villa, so much space indoors and outside for our family of 8. Pool was perfect and was in the sun from 10am-8pm. lovely roof terrace with sea view. lots of storage space, clean bathrooms. 20min walk to town and 30mins to broadwalk. Aldi 6min drive. Harald very responsive and happy to help with queries. Thank you 😊

Very nice house in a very nice place located directly on the beautiful coast of the Algarve. The house is nicely refurbished and is equipped with all the comfort. We are positively surprised by all facilities. And also lovely the terrace at the back in the sun. Nearby within walking distance also plenty of restaurants and a supermarket. Great also to be able to park the car on site. Excellent contact with the manager Lana who lives next door and helped us fine every time. We had a great stay and highly recommend this location.

The most amazing place we’ve ever stayed. We travel as a family of 7 and use Airbnb regularly all over the world. This is the best presented, best location, so close to fun experiences, history, culture, beaches. We all loved it and wish we’d stayed longer. The house is beautiful, well thought out and stunningly decorated, with well curated art. It felt like home much more than the average Airbnb experience. Highly recommended.

Beautiful place in a lovely area. The house looks just like the pictures if not better. It’s very functional and everything you might need is there. It’s located close to the beautiful beach. Everyone was very helpful and I would definitely recommend this place and stay there again . Thank you!

Our stay at this villa was fantastic! The new outdoor kitchen was amazing, and the heated pool made it extra special. The Arkeo team went above and beyond, even installing a fence to keep our small child safe from the stairs. The location is perfect, and the elevator was incredibly convenient for our luggage. One thing that really stood out is how much better the villa feels in person—it’s elegant and understated in the photos, but the space, design, and atmosphere are even more impressive when you’re actually there. Although our stay was too short, we can’t wait to come back for a longer visit. Highly recommend this villa for a luxurious stay in Quinta do Lago!

We loved our stay in Benagil. The house on a cliff overlooking the ocean was amazing and peaceful. We hiked to the beach and along the cliffs from the house and we took day trips by car to nearby towns. The house was large and pristine. Marco was very responsive and provided local recommendations. We couldn’t have asked for a better trip.

we booked marta'a villa 6 days before we were due to head to portugal as our first villa cancelled. marta was extremely accommodating kind and friendly, she knew we were bringing two small kids and she made sure we had everything we needed for them and left them some sweets to enjoy. she was great at giving us recommendations and when we did have a small issue she sorted it immediately. the house was spotless and perfect for all ages being between 5 and 65! the pool was a massive hit by all, as was the pool table. we would recommend anyone and everyone to book this house it was everything and more we could have hoped for. thank you again marta

The villa was absolutely beautiful. It looked exactly like the photos. It accommodated 6 adults and 2 children comfortably. Whilst we were there the towels were changed, beds were stripped, pool cleaned, gardens maintained. The villa is very well cared for. Agree with other reviews that you either need a car or be prepared to get a taxi (7 euros to the marina). The walk is doable but part of it is along a quick road with blind corners and no pavement. We didn’t feel safe doing it. We had one issue that was dealt with - thank you for the responsive communication. Thank you for the welcome drink left in the fridge. We were met personally on arrival and could check in early due to a morning flight. We would 100% stay here again and recommend.

The accommodation was perfect, it was clean, spacious and well equipped. The outside area was the highlight with seating, sun beds, pool and bbq area. Bruno was very helpful and answered questions quickly. The location was a short uber/taxi from the main area (€5) which was no problem for us. A fantastic stay and would definitely recommend.

We had a few days here and it was amazing, felt at home from the minute we walked in, we was with our 2 boys (13 & 10) and they had so much fun here as well as space for themselves when it was needed. The villa had everything, was exactly like the photos and is a great place to stay - you will need a car to get anywhere the nearest town was about 10-15 min away. Will definitely go back if we get the chance again. Loved it!! Thank you ❤️❤️

We loved our stay at Miriam's home in the Algarve. Just right for our family of 6. Lots of space, both in and outside the home. The location was a great spot to be close to things we wanted to do along the coast - 7 Hanging Valleys trail, Benagil cave, Lagos, and much more. Miriam was a fantastic host. She helped us with local recommendations, and was proactive about making we were ok during the national power outage.

We booked Filips place quite last minute but he was very responsive and helpful so everything went well finding the house. Upon arrival he greeted us, showed us around and kept being very responsive during our stay. We enjoyed the beautiful house and it's quiet location very much and would happily book the house again should we decide to travel to Algarve again.

Craig is an amazing host, always here to help, very discreet, extremely responsive and flexible and super nice. His house was perfect for us as we stayed as 2 families, very well equipped, with multiple places to chill and relax as the day goes by, the pool is sensational and just perfect with kids. The lightings at night is great, we love the house and its garden. thanks so much Craig for this amazing stay.

We really enjoyed our stay. The villa layout and outside space was very sociable. We were a family of 7, children aged from 21 to 26. Perfect position in a beautiful town, lots of lovely eatery’s and shops. The beds were all comfortable, there was plenty of hot water for showers and the villa was very private. There is a construction site over the wall and on one day it was quite noisy and dusty but the rest of the week it did not bother us. Table tennis and the pool table were a bonus for a bit of family competition. Fabio was very helpful. Some more basics in the house such as salt and pepper, an extra w.c roll or two etc would have been appreciated and compared to other places we have stayed it was a little limited. Generally the whole family said we would definitely consider coming to Casa Barbara again. The construction site did not put us off. Thanks Fabio

A beautiful house, with a great backyard and pool area, the only problem we came across during our visit were the neighbours, who were really sensitive to noises and called the police even thought we werent that noisy.

Excellent villa with an excellent host! would use the villa and Kinga again in the future. Thank you Kinga for the warm welcome and the unexpected welcome pack with groceries. Very easy to communicate with when needed! Thank you again. The Stewart

We spent a total of two weeks in the accommodation with adults plus small children. The house and the surroundings left nothing to be desired. The kitchen equipment and the furnishings of the premises were great, each room has its own bathroom, everything was very clean and well maintained. We felt immediately comfortable and were able to relax very well. The area and the (natural) pool invited you to linger, but great beaches or restaurants are also easy to reach by car. The communication and check-in went perfectly. The accommodation is absolutely recommended, we had a great time and would come back anytime.

Sergio and Maria were great hosts and very responsive with any questions, issues, queries faced. Had a couple issues with 2 of the AC units but they had the matter sorted in a timely manner. Very nice house, very modern, and had a nice home feel to it. Facilities were brilliant, and the pool and outdoor area were very nice. Only thing I would note is that the house is quite far from any amenities, shops, restaurants, etc., so would recommend renting a car as it can be annoying having to taxi everywhere.
