Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Praia da Lota

Just back from a lovely few days staying at Ana Maria and Jorge's cottage, who are such kind and friendly hosts. Well equipped, very comfortable and clean and just what we needed for a peaceful few days resting and exploring the Algarve. Going out and about in a hire car, we especially enjoyed visited historic Silves, swimming in the sea at Portimão and the Sunday church service at São Bartolomeu de Messines Church. Highly recommended!

Just loved Sandra’s place. So peaceful and we felt right at home among the lemon trees. The bed was comfortable and the cooking facilities were perfect. You can walk to the little supermarket in about 10 minutes down a track which was perfect to collect fresh bread in the morning and give our little dog a walk off lead. Sandra and Miguel were always responsive to any questions we had. Tavira is about an 8 minute drive away and there’s a large free car park just over the bridge. It’s worth visiting Santa Luzia too which is about 18 minutes by car and also there’s lovely beaches in the opposite direction. The Quinta has a soul if its own - so enjoyed my morning yoga practise. A wonderful place to stay. ❤️❤️

We had a fantastic stay at Amanda’s Villa. Had everything you needed for the stay - amazing amenities (especially in the kitchen). Was really accommodating for a larger group and we all had a great time. Would definitely recommend!!

Maria Teresa's house met expectations: super beautiful and well maintained, in a very quiet area, close to everything on foot and with everything we needed. The terrace is excellent for outdoor dining. We were all very pleased with our stay and sorry not to stay longer :)

Great place to stay. Great host giving us lots of useful tips. Very friendly, exactly as described. Good location for accessing beaches, towns and countryside. a Although you do have to drive everywhere. Would go back tomorrow!!

Nuno and Ana are wonderfully friendly and helpful hosts. The house is equipped with all ( and even more) comforts; really everything you need is present. We enjoyed the house, the garden and the location!!!

We had a great time in Derek's beautiful house! If you are looking for peace and quiet and want to enjoy Portuguese life, you have come to the right place. The house is beautifully renovated, cozily furnished, superbly equipped and was absolutely clean. It is also special that we found water, wine, coffee, fruit, shower bath and much more already in the house. Derek welcomed us very kindly, was always available and took care of everything. The terrace with the hot tub is a dream and the location of the house in the small, beautiful Santa Catarina da Fonte do Bispo is also great. From here you can quickly reach Tavira, Olhão, Fuseta or Faro and the beaches of the Sandalgarve. Thanks for the great time, Derek! We felt very comfortable :)

Our stay at Villa La Caleta was fantastic. The house is even more impressive in person—beautifully designed, well-equipped, and with a really welcoming atmosphere that made us feel comfortable right away. The location is perfect—just a short walk to the beach in a quiet, family-friendly area. Whether you want to relax, explore, or just enjoy a nice evening at home, this place has everything you need. Francisco was a great host—super responsive and made sure everything was perfect for our stay. If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway by the beach, this is definitely a place to consider. Will absolutely stay here again!

The place is ideally located with a short walk to the old town and river. We would highly recommend and hope to visit again and get to stay in this beautiful little house.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. Jonathan was very helpful and really communicative throughout my stay. Check-in was super easy, the apartment was very clean with a lovely patio area out the back. The location is fantastic as you're not in the heart of all the action, but only a few minutes walk away and the beach is at the end of the road. I would definitely stay here again.

We had a very nice week as a family of three in Casa Regina, Apartment 2. We were able to sit comfortably on the large terrace. The kitchen was equipped with everything you need. We were able to use the pool and garden nicely. Washing machine great. Andrew and his mother Lurdes were very responsive and communicative. In case of problems with the shower, they responded quickly and there were cookies and wine as a small compensation. When booking, Andrew also points out that it is a quiet residential unit. It is actually important to consider this, as the apartments are quite close to each other. Apartment 3 adjoins the large bedroom and, depending on the neighbors, it can also be a bit noisy. You can also always hear the street, but at night it is relatively quiet and also at the pool it is idyllic. It should also be mentioned that the entrance from apartment 1 leads to the terrace of apartment 2. We had very nice neighbors, so it wasn't disturbing for us.

In our travels through Portugal, this was absolutely the best place we stayed. Marcio’s place is very spacious, very clean, and has the feeling of being in a real home. There is a large outdoor patio where we enjoyed hanging out. And even though we were in a central location, the apartment was peaceful and quiet. Marcio was very easy to communicate with, and even when we locked ourselves out of the apartment, he was extremely kind and helpful. I can’t recommend this place enough. It was fabulous!!

Great accommodation, everything is super clean and cozy. The apartment is in a super quiet location and everything is within walking distance! You feel safe, even at night! Anabela is super sweet and responds within a few minutes. It is only 10 minutes to the airport by taxi and the fares are very reasonable. We were very satisfied and would love to come back, thank you!

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

We had a very comfortable stay! A/C works really well which was much needed as there was unseasonably warm temps when we went. Host was friendly and responsive and even made local suggestions for us. Great value for money!

The hosts were very friendly and helpful. The apartment has everything you need and is very close to bars and the beach.

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.

We had a brilliant 9-day stay at Tamsin’s house. The villa couldn’t have been better situated, being a 2-min walk from town and within easy reach of local towns / beaches and shops. The house itself was large and well equipped, with a big swimming pool and living area. We travelled with 2 young children and the house was perfect, with stair-gates, toys and a comfortable travel cot and high chair. Tamsin was also very responsive snd accommodated an early check in and late departure. We would highly recommend.

Amazing experience in this villa. The Host was exceptional always there to respond and take care of things and it shows that he cares about the place. I would recommend this to anyone. Place was clean and cozy. In a very private development. If I ever get a chance will book it again. I already forwarded to few friends in London to have that experience. Thanks Mr Helder. Keep up your good work .

Madalena was a fabulous host, really friendly and always a quick response to my messages.. a stunning location, the photos really don't do it justice. We stayed for 4 nights, enjoying walking to nearby Loule. A supermarket just 5 mins walk away and a cafe. Would not hesitate to go back, thank you so much Madalena

House with 1 bedroom on the ground floor and 2 bedrooms on the 1st floor, quiet, close to restaurants and the beach. The house had all the necessary utensils and amenities for a pleasant and quiet stay. The host was very helpful, and provided all the necessary information for the operation of the house and tips for restaurants and places to visit. The pool is great.

Great value spot in the algarve. Awesome Location and brilliant property. Would recommend to anyone, particularly large groups

Very peaceful, clean villa with great pool and things for young children to play with. Car is essential to access local amenities. Host Carmen very informative and friendly.

We stayed at Rich & Yan’s place on our family holiday with our 2 year old and it was just perfect for us. It was lovely to have a big patio area outside too within easy reach of the pool (which we used every day!). Everything had been thought of, from children’s books, welcome food and drink, highchair, travel cot etc to the supply of shampoo/ conditioner/ body wash in each bathroom. We loved the clean, homely feel of the place without it feeling too cluttered. The location was perfect for us, allowing us some peace and quiet when we needed but within a 10/15 minute drive of everywhere we needed to be including beautiful beaches and restaurants. The hosts Rich & Yan were very responsive and provided plenty of recommendations and detailed check-in instructions. We’d definitely recommend this place to anyone with a young family!
