Holiday rentals with a fireplace in São Bartolomeu de Messines

Excellent location. Steps from beach. Loved watching surfers. Bruno made us feel right at home. Would stay again.

A Perfect Family Getaway in Lagos! We recently spent a week at this beautiful villa in Lagos with our family, and it exceeded all expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by how spacious and immaculately clean the property was. There was plenty of room for everyone to relax, whether inside the villa or out by the pool. The highlight for us was definitely the pool area—it offered a stunning view that made every morning coffee and evening swim feel like a luxury experience. The outdoor space was peaceful and well-maintained, making it the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the sunshine. Ursula, our host, was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout our stay, which made everything smooth and enjoyable. Her warm hospitality really added to the experience. The location was great too—quiet and private, yet just a short drive from the beaches and town centre. We felt completely at home and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Highly recommend for families

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Ahua Portugal, where our host Anne guided us with thoughtful local tips and quick responses. Nestled on a peaceful hillside above Seixe Valley, the modern house had every comfort we needed and felt like the perfect retreat. We were deeply inspired by Anne’s dedication to the land. She has led a reforestation project across her 18-hectare estate, planting over 30,000 cork trees to restore the forest after wildfires. Tip: Do plan to bring a reliable car. The unpaved access roads are best navigated with a vehicle that has good clearance. If you’re seeking a serene, private getaway with a caring, responsive host deeply connected to her land, Ahua Portugal is an exceptional choice! Five stars all the way, and thank you, Anne!

What a slice of heaven on the outskirts of Faro. A beautiful garden, stunning views and lovely terrace for us to sit and enjoy the beautiful sunny weather. A true hidden gem, they also serve the most unreal breakfast with fresh ingredients sourced locally and from their own garden. Alex & Monique gave us the best recommendations, from restaurants to more private beaches. We had an amazing stay and would highly recommend!

Thyl is a good host, he welcomed us warmly. The property sits behind another owner with a common gate. The other property has an exclusive outdoor zone quite near the kitchen whilst the outdoor area for this property is private in the back garden. We didn't use it due to mostly inclement weather during our stay. We were comfortable and liked the space. The property is well stocked with everything you would need during the stay. Silves is lovely and I'm glad we chose to stay there.

We stayed for a week with our baby and had a wonderful time. It‘s a super peaceful, beautiful place - especially the surrounding grounds are magical. The house itself is simple but cozy and very charming, the terrace overlooking the property‘s nature is a wonderful place to hang out and chill, and we made good use of the BBQ and outside shower. At some point we had a power outage, but Ana dealt with it promptly and professionally. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a retreat in nature.

What an amazing stay in Carrapeteira! Great house, good restaurants nearby, and two beaches in walking distance, highly recommended!

Wow wow wow. It's not often you stay at a place that is truly magical. The house is perfect, Johann did an immaculate job with it, and it's so beautifully done, it was nice to appreciate the care he must have put into it, and the cleanliness leaves most other AirBnB properties to shame. But it's the outside you're here for (at least in summer) - a stunning view down to the sea at Lagos in the distance, a garden bursting with plants, flowers and wild life. And the pool. I had to get in it every morning and pinch myself that it was real. This place is magical, breathtaking. You could easily spend a week here without going anywhere. But if you need to, the unspoilt beaches of the Algarve are about an hour away (try Castelejo or Bordeira). Monchique is a lovely place to visit with some great cafes/restaurants. Supermarket is less than 10 mins away. The wild storks in their nests on the way from Faro were a pleasant surprise. We did donkey walking with Happy Donkeys locally. We'll be back!

I felt very comfortable in Tatiana's apartment! It was spotlessly clean, cozy and designed with great attention to detail. The location near the beach is perfect - you can be at the water in just a few minutes. Tatiana was a very attentive and helpful host who helped me immediately with questions. I can absolutely recommend the place and will be happy to come back!

Absolutely loved this airbnb. In a prefect walkable location, and easy to drive to with parking. The apartment was gorgeous with everything we needed. Highly recommended

Susana was a wonderful host. The apartment was big , clean and comfortable. The view from the balcony was great!. From the bus stop across the street you can take the bus to many cities in Portugal and Spain. Since the apartment is on the top floor you can not hear the noise from old town Albufeira. We did enjoy our stay.

Leslie is a lovely host. She was extremely helpful, supported us with local tips, eg with the local car rental. Her place is calm and beautiful. I loved the beaches close to the house. Just amazing!

We felt very comfortable and enjoyed the accommodation very much. Everything was as described and we especially appreciated the great position, close to the sea and the city. The communication was always fast, very supportive and very friendly. Thank you very much!!

We had a wonderful few days at Monica’s Blue holiday home. This was our third Airbnb in Portugal and was by far the nicest and cleanest stay on our trip. Monica was there to great us on our arrival and she answered all our questions about the apartment and the surrounding area. She is a lovely person and we enjoyed meeting her. It is very obvious that she is a super host!! We appreciated the sunny patio and we loved the morning beach walks and all the many bars and restaurants in the area. Would have loved to stay longer and would highly recommend Monica’s place!!

Amazing localization, beautiful beach! The place was peaceful, clean, and stylish. One of the best places we've been to, totally recommend!

Aurelia’s house had a welcoming atmosphere from the moment I walked in. I especially appreciated the local guidebook on the living room table- it’s clear Aurelia truly cares about her guests’ experience.

Very welcoming place, surrounded by nature, which provides a relaxing stay! From the reception to the room, everything was very organized and sanitized. Dinner was well served with the disposition of a fantastic team. We cannot fail to mention the employee Erika for the helpful service she provided throughout the stay. Without a doubt, an experience to be repeated, as we left the place with immense nostalgia.

We had a great week. We liked the house and the pool very much, we relaxed well and everything was very quick to reach. The mix of beach, party and city was perfect. Thank you for the quick and easy communication, the check-in and check-out were also super flexible.

A fab stay from start to finish. Rafael and Anna-Sophie were excellent hosts, very responsive and super flexible around our arrival time which was late in the evening. The apartment was very well-equipped and has been designed in a clever way to make the most of the space – it actually feels much bigger than it looks in the photos. The patio balcony with a BBQ was perfect for al-fresco dining, the gardens have been beautifully maintained and the swimming pool was perfect for a hot summers day. You can easily reach the towns of Boliqueime and Loulé by car and the coast is only a c. 20 min drive away. Would definitely recommend, thank you!

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!

Oh well, whenever you come across superlatives on Airbnb you'd get suspicious. This home and the warm-felt welcoming of Agi found no challenger during all our time booking by Airbnb. This was a heavenly calm, beautiful place. We'd not only love to come back but stay forever. Thank you for giving us the opportunity and taking the extra time to show us around.

We recently returned from the most fantastic stay at Casa Rural. From the moment you walk into the property it certainly has that ‘wow’ factor! It’s a dreamy escape that’s remote but also not too far to get to local amenities etc. The hosts were extremely accommodating as we had to arrive a day later and we were also offered an extra night for free at the end of our holiday. We were provided with lots of great information that we made use of from restaurants, to beaches, to walks, supermarkets, other things to do etc - this was extremely helpful. So all in all we loved the villa and would happily return again and recommend to others!

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.

The location of this home is unbeatable. Literally next to the beach, but you feel private the entire time. We appreciated all of the different sections of the outdoor space— especially the bar stools by the balcony to watch the dogs on the beach and the full al fresco kitchen! So much to do nearby and we highly recommend as an ideal spot for anyone visiting the Algarve. Thank you!
