Aquamarina Luxury 2 Bedroom Apartment Ria Formosa
Great stay! Very comfortable, spacious flat with comfortable beds. All very clean. We had everything we needed. Mauro, Rui and Camila are awesome hosts. Thanks a lot!

Skyline Blue Dream
Was a nice place to stay, within walking distance to everything and free parking right next to the building. The apartment is everything you could possible need. I did find it loud throughout the night with motorcycles racing by and it’s hard to sleep in because of the elementary school noise right in front of the building.

Mar House in Coelha Beach
My family and I had an incredible stay in Rui and Patricia’s airbnb near Coelha beach. The hosts were very nice and gave us recommendations and beach towels! The property is wonderful, clean, and within walking distance to a beautiful beach. I would not hesitate to recommend this stay, we hope to be back one day!

T2 Sea front Quarteira Algarve. 30 m2 terrace
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

Timeless Sea II - Apartment
We had a great time. We had a welcoming and smiling host. The instructions were very clear, the apartment very clean and the neighborhood close to the sea. The only downside is the noise of the work during the day, but nothing repulsive. It was a pleasure!

Comfort with a view
Everything was fine. The only downside was that we were never able to connect to the home WiFi. Otherwise, it is clean and close to the city with free parking in the surrounding area

Panoramic seaview apartment, center | Beach 2 min
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.

Fantastic beach apartment at Praia da Falesia
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.
Waterfront house rentals

Casa Lendro in the historical District of Olhão
This property, and our stay overall, exceeded our expectations. Casa Leandro is a spacious, immaculate and spectacular house. It was so well equipped with everything we needed and a lot of thoughtful extras. We loved the roof terrace and the views from it, and found it easy to walk to the waterfront and around the old town from here. One highlight from our 4 night stay was a flock of flamingos flying right overhead when we were sitting on the roof terrace - amazing. Susanne was super-helpful and quick to respond to messages and check if everything was ok when we arrived. Highly recommended!

Beautiful Villa/ Heated Pool/ Ocean View/ AC/ WiFi
Lovely and peaceful stay and a perfect location to explore the amazing area in and around Tavira, a truly underrated part of the Algarve. The house is perfect for a small family. Very chilled, off the beaten path. Great stay and super easy!

Casa da Bandeira - Rooftop pool - Front beach
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!

Casa da Alvorada
Had the most amazing holiday with friends. Villa was beautiful, if possible better than the photos! You do need a car to get around though or need to be happy to pay for taxis to get around which is also easy to do ☺️

Casinha Serena
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!

Typical, equipped, air-conditioned, near the seafront
A lovely house right in the centre of Olhao. Both Rahima and Raphael were very quick to respond to our messages, particularly on the first night when we had no hot water - Rahima arrived the next day to change the gas cylinder. I am sure that the street is usually very quiet but unfortunately, during our stay, there were road works going on which started at 8 am every morning but there is nothing the host could do about that 🤣. The house has every thing required for an enjoyable stay from beach towels to beach umbrellas/deck chairs and even a shopping trolley. It is close to many restaurants and the pier to the islands. The roof terrace is an added bonus but not as private as we would have liked. The spiral staircase up to it is definitely not suitable for those with mobility difficulties. We would recommend the house for an enjoyable stay in Olhao ☀️

#1 Beach House ♡ Ocean View ♡ Rooftop ♡ AC ♡ WiFi
Marinas place is amazing! Exactly as described. Placed in a great location in the old town, it was super easy to get to everything. Marina was super helpful with any questions we had, her response time was very quick. We especially loved both terraces! Would definitely recommend when staying in Portugal:)

Vistavira - Tavira Historical Centre House
This was a great base for a holiday in Tavira. The accommodation was perfect in every way - spotlessly clean and tidy with well thought out decor. We particularly loved the well equipped kitchen. Manuel, our host was very responsive and even though we got to Tavira quite late, his Dad was there to meet and greet us. Would wholeheartedly recommend.
Waterfront condo accommodation

Ocean & Marina Views Apartment with Swimming-pool
stunning apartment, appears exactly as the pictures show. homely and welcoming. great location, a short drive into town to avoid walking back up all the hills with children. swimming pool area was clean and welcoming of a family having fun. the apartment even provided beach/pool towels for us use, beach games and the umbrella came in very handy

Luxury Ocean View Condo - Quarteira, Vilamoura
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

Wonderful penthouse with spectacular views
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!

Apartment with 2 pools and 300 m from the sea
Gorgeous home, very clean. In a great location next to shops and restaurants, and a very short walk from the beach. Would definitely return!

Vilamoura Sunset - Beautiful Garden & Pool
Very spacious apartment with comfortable beds, great cooking facilities (we ate in most days), very clean, English TV channels and a good selection of board games & books. Great pool area with plenty of beds and Natalia was very responsive and helpful. We were there on a golfing holiday and all courses were easily reached by car within 4 to 10 minutes. Marina 5 minute drive away. Highly recommend

Sea view, Albufeira‘s old town, 5 mins to beach
This was such a lovely apartment, me and my 3 friends really enjoyed staying here! And Lisa was more than helpful. HIGHLY recommend it’s so close to old town and other main parts of the area

OURA WHITE VIEW : Beach 2 min walk sea
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.

Sea View, Beach 2 minutes walk.
Just wow Beautiful 😊view and impeccable apartment by its cleanliness and decor Everything is on foot, beach , restaurant and shops nearby No need to rent a car if you want to enjoy Olhos ☀️Ana Paula answers your questions very quickly I highly recommend and for my third time in Olhos, it's still a success for the whole family Thank you and see you soon 🌺☀️
