Waterfront holiday rentals in Monte Gordo

We had a great time. The apartment is really very nice and spacious for our group of 7 friends. Well located for visiting the Algarve and its famous cliffs. There is a swimming pool on the roof terrace which was very appreciable at the end of the day after our visits. I highly recommend it, you will not be disappointed.

We had the pleasure of the staying at Rita’s place for a week in April 2025. The apartment is comfortable and well equipped, the rooftop terrace with a bbq is perfect for dinner with fresh seafood from the local market. It was our 3rd visit to the Algarve region and Manta Rota is one of our favorite spots so far, we’d definitely return to Manta Rota and book the apartment again.

We had a wonderful stay at this gorgeous property. It is spacious, clean and tastefully presented. It is suitated in a quiet residential area but only a short 10 minute walk into the city center. Tineke was a fabulous host and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The apartment was so perfect for my weeklong trip for a wedding. It is very central (less than 5 min walk to the beach), the view on the top floor is incredible, and the accommodations inside felt both cozy and luxurious. I have shared the listing with local friends, and I would certainly stay again.

Our stay at Antonia and Mateo's apartment was fantastic. It is a beautiful apartment , very clean, comfortable, spacious with an amazing sea view. We spent many hours watching the birds ( binoculars provided) Mateo was very helpful when we arrived showing us maps of restaurants and the lovely walks. 10/10 for everything.

This is our 3rd time staying in this apartment . We love it ! Great host , great communication, great location . Just another perfect stay and we e already booked again for next year . Thank you xx

Patricia's apartment is perfect for a quiet stay in Isla Canela. It is tastefully decorated and perfectly equipped, down to the smallest detail, and all completely new and quality. The views from the whole house are amazing. We were not very lucky with time but only with being in the living room and enjoying that view of the sea was already worth it. Patricia was always available for anything we needed. This will certainly be our reference apartment for our visits to Isla Canela.

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.

Beautiful part of Portugal . The house is in easy walking distances of marina and restaurants etc Mini market 50yards ! And beautiful hotel casa amor next block . Would definitely return

It was a good experience, the house was cozy and the location was very good.

Lovely traditional house within very easy, flat walking distance of Tavira town centre and the many restaurants there. Spotlessly clean and well equipped. Great patio space for al fresco dining/sunbathing and useful touches such as extra large beach towels. View from the front is of car repair garage across the road but this really doesn’t matter as the patio is at the rear. Although we didn’t have chance to meet them David and Megan were very communicative hosts. All in all a great place to stay to easily enjoy all that Tavira has to offer.

Just wow! Rita met us to check us in and contacted us several times to make sure all was well. Any little issues were addressed right away, kindly and professionally. The little house was clean and cozy with great patio to enjoy a glass of wine with a view to the distant sea. We loved everything and Rita is wonderful!!!! Can’t recommend highly enough. Hope to return!

Sandras place was amazing, its right on the beach and a 30 second walk to the restaurants. It was amazing waking up each morning to the sound of the sea, the place has 3 terraces that you can lounge on and the view from the hot tub on the roof is one not to miss. The kitchen is well layed out with all you need if you want to cook. Sandra was very helpful via text if we ever needed her and she gave us recommendations of where to eat etc. We will be returning to stay again for sure.

Had an amazing time here and underestimated how good the location is. Easy to jump in and out of the fun of Albufeira and an easy walk to public parking. Marina was super responsive and communicated well. Wish we could stay longer!

Teresa is amazing - the place is terrific. Really well located yet quiet. I’m a quite tall so I am not always suitable for Portuguese homes, but the home is perfect in every way. Very quaint very clean and very comfortable.

Gorgeous time. Recommend to anyone. Would come back.

I can’t praise/recommend this property and Susana as our host enough, we were a group of 4 female friends travelling for a long weekend break away, from fantastic communication to flexible check in times, spotlessly clean apartment and complex, great accessories provided including pool towels and umbrella, everything is as described, the pictures do not do it justice, the apartment is much bigger than you expect with 2 balconies each side catching sunrise and sunset. We walked downhill to the marina and local supermarket/bar & restaurant and easily ordered Ubers back up to the complex, only costing a couple of Euros. An Uber into Old Town is just as easy to order costing approx 7€. The complex is very secure with gated/key access, it is quiet and respectful with a security guard walking round day and evening. We have had a fantastic trip and wouldn’t hesitate to book with Susana again, thank you so much.

Favorite of the stay, very clean apartment, a super nice terrace with ocean view. The beach is across the street, I highly recommend it

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!

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

Very good communication with the host and the place is as described in the listing. Clean and with all amenities

Natalia treated us exquisitely, even before our arrival, and we booked only 24 hours before. He responded quickly to the questions that arose before I finished the reservation, and I really appreciated that. She gave us flexibility with the arrival time, and sent us instructions on how to check in, and yet we had to call her and she was very kind to us. The accommodation on our arrival was equipped as we expected, clean and there in the living room you have a basket with a lot of recommendations for both gastronomy and experiences. The development is super quiet, the pool is spectacular. We've only been here for a weekend, but we're delighted. It'll be another of those accommodations that we'll save in case life allows us to return. I'm sure we'd stay here again. Thank you Natalia 😍

Stayed here with my mate for a couple days. Really good location if you are planning to spend a lot of time in new town. Also a stones throw away from the beach. Plenty of food options near by in all directions. The places has all amenities you can think of and a TV with Netflix already loaded up. Comfortable beds and a nice balcony.

The place was gorgeous, right next to the beach. The balcony was our favorite part about the apartment, we enjoyed every single evening there. Thank you for a little welcome package! Would definitely come back anytime in Albufeira.
