Just a few steps away from the Old Town of Albufeira and Pescadores Beach, this spot invites guests for an authentic taste of the Algarve. With the town's vast array of shops, bars and restaurants at your fingertips, you'll benefit from a comfortable and practical stay having this apartment as your base. Modern designs create a laid-back ambience, and while the swimming pool is shared with three other apartments, there's a real sense of seclusion found in the waterfront garden. From here, you'll be able to hear the ocean sway – with plenty of perching spots to choose from (our favourite is the hammock).

Tucked away on a quiet street in Albufeira’s historic Old Town, this studio apartment is the perfect base for a couple or solo traveller looking for a convenient location in the Algarve. Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and situated only a few minutes walk from dos Pescadores beach, you couldn’t be better positioned if your priority is proximity to the sand. While the apartment is small, it does have a kitchenette and an alfresco dining terrace where you can enjoy home-cooked breakfasts in the sun.

Sun & Sand

Patio / Terrace

Located just five minutes on foot from the beach and only three minutes from the historical town centre of Albufeira with its vast array of bars, restaurants and shopping opportunities – you'll have the best of the Algarve in the palm of your hand here. Overlooking the Old Town's rooftops, the home's best asset undoubtedly rests outside on the balcony terrace. With an alfresco dining area and seating, it's a great spot for soaking up the Portuguese sunshine when you're not on the beach. Inside, contemporary designs create a cool place to relax in comfort and retreat from the sun.

New Town Feeling

Satellite / Cable TV

Nestled in a quiet neighbourhood, this home takes you away from the hustle and bustle yet still provides easy access to the Algarve coast. Best suited to a couple or small family due to its open-plan nature, this is a comfortable base for up to three guests providing one person is happy to sleep on the sofa bed in the living area. The private terrace promises a sunny yet secluded spot for morning coffee, while the shared pool will cool you down in the heat of the day. With an abundance of beaches lining this stretch of coast, and golf courses aplenty, you’ll never be short of things to do here. 

Algarve Blush

With the beach a short stroll away and a communal pool to cool off in, what’s not to love about this apartment? Sure, the twin bedroom may be a bit of a squeeze, but this unfussy pad has everything you need for a memory-filled coastal stay in Albufeira. With a choice of private balconies, opportunities for a spot of sunbathing are never far away. Or, to soak up both the sun and panoramic sea views, head up to the shared rooftop pool area. Restaurants, shops and bars are also nearby if you fancy a night on the town.

Hidden in the Albufeira city centre lies this gorgeous villa, filled with enough luxuries to make your stay a memorable one. Make a splash in the glittering waters of the private pool or lounge poolside as you work on that perfectly golden holiday tan under the sun. If you're still in business mode, get set up at the workspace downstairs for some remote work before you let loose and relax out on the terrace. Powered by solar panels and with a system designed to save water, this villa is as eco-conscious as it is beautiful. Settling in won't take long and you'll be dining alfresco or relaxing in the Jacuzzi jets of a hot bath in no time.

In the heart of the city, you'll have access to all the nearest attractions and necessities. Whether you're heading out to pick up some food for cooking up a family meal on the barbecue or in the fully-equipped kitchen, or you're looking to dine out by the sea or in the city surrounded by the friendly local atmosphere, you're just a walk away from a good time. Spend days on the golden sands of the Praia dos Pescadores or feel like a local as you wander in the Albufeira Old Town Square, both just a short walk from your doorstep. Whatever your desires, this home can ensure you a restful and fun-filled holiday.

Paid Parking

Access to Beach

Perfect for a family getaway by the coast, this bright and breezy villa in Albufeira boasts sparkling sea views – best enjoyed from the private balcony over a bottle of wine, although the vistas are visible from many rooms inside, too. Some of the bedrooms are a bit of a squeeze, and the balcony is the only outdoor space, but with Túnel beach just fifty metres away and a great selection of beachfront eateries to enjoy, you’re likely to spend most of your time lapping up the Portuguese sun away from home.

Single-Level Home

Step-Free Access

Outdoor Shower

Nestled within a Mediterranean garden, this farmhouse in Albufeira is a great base for families. While the decor is a little dated and not to everyone’s taste, this single-level villa has authentic charm and is accessible to those with limited mobility. The large terrace and swimming pool lined with traditional thatched sun umbrellas certainly offer holiday vibes. And where better to enjoy an alfresco family meal cooked on the barbecue than under the shaded dining area? For those looking to explore the coastline, Castello and Evaristo beaches in Gale are both within walking distance – as are restaurants and shops.

A Casa Da Fazenda

This homely villa in Castelo is made for coastal living. Perfect for a group of six, each bedroom boasts an en-suite so there will be no bathroom queue in the mornings – who wants to be held up indoors when the Algarve sun is high in the sky? The private pool offers some welcome respite from the heat of the day, while the barbecue and outdoor seating make alfresco dining a must. Locally, you can head out on a dolphin-watching tour or take a ten-minute stroll to the beach – stopping off at a restaurant en route to fuel up for wherever the day takes you. 

Palm Trees & Turquoise Seas

Rooftop Terrace

Nestled in Albufeira, this apartment offers easy access to a selection of beaches on the Algarve coast. Dine out on your private balcony, albeit a little overlooked by neighbouring homes, and you can even catch a glimpse of the sea peeking through the buildings. If that’s not the perfect spot to start your day, morning coffee in hand, then we recommend making your way to the rooftop terrace. Shared with the other residents, this communal space promises views that you’ll never tire of – best enjoyed, we think, from the refreshing waters of the pool. 


Rooftop Refuge

Fireplace

Situated in the laidback, seaside neighbourhood of Galé, this dreamy holiday home has ‘idyllic’ written all over it. The interior here might be simple in style – think pristine, white walls and minimal accents – but its thoughtful design means you’ll have plenty of room for eating, drinking, and being merry with your fellow guests. Come together at the kitchen table for a Portuguese-inspired family meal or unwind in the air-conditioned living room with a drink or two before setting off for a day of sunbathing at Praia do Lourenço, a rocky beach just 1 km away. 

When you’ve had your fill of being out and about, there’s a sun lounger at home with your name on it. Stretch out and soak up the last of the evening sun or cool off with a refreshing dip in the outdoor pool. Then, when it’s time to eat, fire up the barbecue and treat yourself to a spot of alfresco dining on the roof terrace. We don’t know about you, but we can’t think of a better way to end the day.

Nestled close to the sea, you’ll find this beautifully contemporary home on the Albufeira coastline. With a striking architectural design to the exterior, it will take your breath away before you even step inside. The outdoor space is just beautiful – picture yourself enjoying the ocean views and landscaped gardens, relaxing by your private pool with the sound of the sea in the air and a good book to discover. We think it’s a pretty perfect way to while away a few hours.

As you step inside, the natural light will follow you in and glow from the crisp white walls to the sparkling tiles, with the uplight ceiling design a stand-out, striking feature. The open-plan spaces allow for sociable settings with loved ones in a home that oozes sophistication. The stunning interiors carry through to the sleeping areas, where you’ll be met with warm comfort. Rinse the day away under your rainfall shower and climb into bed for a restful night’s sleep. 

Ideally located, you’ll have far more than just your games room to keep you occupied. Stroll to the local restaurants for a spot of lunch before relaxing the afternoon away on the warm Portuguese sand. The picturesque views will draw you in until sunset, when a charming evening over a few drinks may be next on the list. All within walking distance of your stunning villa which will quickly become your home-away-from-home. 

Halo Glow

Pets Allowed

Pets

Ideally located to explore a number of sandy beaches on the Portuguese coast, this beautiful home exemplifies modern beach living. Instead of a quaint space with the nautical themes you’d usually expect, this villa opts for high-spec design, carefully curated furnishings, and a beautiful colour palette of crisp white and bold pops of yellow. Relying on the many windows for a steady stream of natural light, it feels fresh and like the ideal space for the whole family to unwind together. 

Spend long afternoons outdoors where you can either find fun in the private pool, or tap into your less productive side as you lounge around with a drink and some snacks, basking happily in the sun until you feel it’s time to head into the shade. 

Fire up the barbecue at lunch so you can grill a Mediterranean feast to be enjoyed alfresco. Afterwards, find a beanbag to nap in or head out for a walk to the supermarket. There are also a number of restaurants not too far away if you’d like to experience authentic local cuisine instead, but cooking in the sleek kitchen can be a joy if you’d like to try out a new recipe. 


Custard Yellow

This wonderful villa is on the cliffs above Praia d’Oura, and boasts spectacular sea views. You can even walk straight from the garden to the beach via a steep set of stairs – save some energy for the return climb though. The villa sits amid stunning gardens that make for a relaxing backdrop. We love the private pool, the courtyard, and the day beds that face the sea – where better to doze in the sunshine? You’ll be just a short walk to Santa Eulalia, with all of its bars and restaurants. What more could you ask for? 

Beach Breeze Villa

Heated Pool

Just a short distance from the Galé area and only a five-minute walk from its sandy beaches, this home is an ideal base for those looking to explore the Algarve. With an outdoor living set-up like this, it's likely you'll want to spend as much time as possible by the private pool, sunbathing or dining at the covered alfresco dining and barbecue area. The kids will also be entertained at the outdoor games area with a snooker table and ping pong. It's worth noting here that at full capacity, two guests will be sleeping on non-permanent sleeping arrangements, including sofa beds in the communal areas. The villa is nearby to restaurants, supermarkets, and beaches of Lourenço and Galé. 


Tropical Eyes

Hot Tub

Near the popular resort town of Albufeira and its sandy coastline, this traditional villa is perfect for a laid-back stay spent relaxing with friends and family. The natural stone facade, turrets and grand pillars make a bold first impression, but it's the outside space that's the real standout here. From your private pool and manicured garden to the brick-built barbecue for dining out on the shaded terrace, it's certainly not lacking in outside living areas. Plus, you've got a ping-pong table for the kids and a sunny rooftop balcony with far-reaching views. Location-wise, a short drive will take you to Praia do Castelo, while the charming village of Gale is nearby for evenings out. 

Life is Sweet

This gorgeous beach villa is guaranteed to leave you wanting more. Offering a private pool and an outdoor area perfect for the family, it's also a short distance away from a beach and a marina. After tucking into a delicious breakfast at the outdoor dining table, head inside to challenge your children to a fun game of table football. You can still enjoy the rays of sunlight indoors too, with a lovely view of the terrace. There's a TV in one of the bedrooms, making it perfect for a cosy night with your favourite movie.

If you get peckish, visit the charming town of Albufeira for a meal, or have a night in with a homecooked meal made with love. Jump into the pool for an evening swim, or connect with your family on the outdoor sofa with old memories.




Mocha At The Marina

This villa is a great choice for families or groups of friends seeking a private garden and pool while being located near the beach. From here, the sandy shores of Praia Mónica Isabel are 2km away. We recommend hiring a car for ease – there's on-site parking available. You're a short walk from plenty of restaurants and supermarkets, making it ideal for those looking to relax at home. There's also a sleek kitchen as well as an outside dining area for group meals. Meanwhile, you'll find a private balcony off the main bedroom for some well-earned downtime. 

Sun-Scented Eyes

Boasting views of the Atlantic Ocean and just a short drive from Túnel Beach, this villa suits a family seeking an easy-going stay on Portugal’s south coast. The outside space is the highlight of the home – there’s a brick barbecue and a terrace for dining, table tennis to keep the kids busy and a swimming pool for long, hot afternoons. When you want a moment to yourself, the reading room is the ideal place to take five with a good book.

Sunlight Swirls

With its generous lawned garden complete with a private pool and the Blue Flag beach of Sao Rafael just a short walk away, this villa is ideal for families. The interiors are spacious and comfortable, if a little dated, and if the garden isn’t your favourite outdoor spot, the balcony will be – just the place to drink in the sea views. You’ll need to hire a car if you’d like to venture a little further to the likes of Albufeira – with its beautiful beaches, lively restaurants and vibrant nightlife, it’s well worth a visit. 

Serene Seas & Palm Trees

Courtyard

With dreamy gardens, colourful interiors and a pretty and peaceful location on Portugal's sunny Algarve, this gorgeous holiday home will be an absolute dream to stay in from start to finish. It's based just a short drive from the beautiful beaches of Albufeira, as well as being within easy reach of some great restaurants and bars.

We fell in love with the outdoor areas the minute we saw them. The hammock makes the perfect place to get stuck into a good book, while the covered dining terrace is wonderful for sunset socialising with cocktails in hand. And that's all without mentioning that amazing outdoor private pool, where you can float on a lilo and top up your tan, or splash about to your heart's content.

Inside, the home is somehow even more striking. Colourful retro interiors give the home a wonderfully charming feel – the dining area looks like something from an Alice in Wonderland book, and is ideal for feasting on Piri-Piri chicken – and the vibrant lounge is fantastic for late-night drinks and party games. There's even a sauna here for when you need ultimate relaxation.

Retro Regality

This contemporary and vibrant home has been beautifully decorated to provide a sunny backdrop to your stay. With its zesty lemon exterior this townhouse overlooks your private swimming pool, lined with luxurious sun loungers and a sweet spot, just tucked away towards the end of the terrace, for an evening firing up the barbecue with friends. Inside is just as magical. The open-plan space provides for a sociable setting. Put your feet up on the chaise sofa while your loved ones grab a bottle of wine and you have the best of both worlds – comfort and great company. The glass panel floating staircase is one of many modern features that we love about this home, adding to the openness and light, bright atmosphere.

When you are ready for a restful night’s sleep, you are guaranteed a peaceful evening in one of the many tastefully decorated bedrooms,  waking in the morning to the beauty and practicality of your surroundings. If you don’t fancy rustling up a breakfast spread, you’re within walking distance of many stores and restaurants. Spend your day sinking your toes into the picturesque sandy beach or exploring the Albufeira Strip – the ideal combination of relaxation and fun. 

Lemon Soul

Replete with places to catch some sun, this home in Albufeira first caught our attention with its rooftop terrace and stunning pool. Three of the four bedrooms here are twins, making this home ideal for a group of friends or families with plenty of kids but perhaps less suitable for a couples' trip. And while there is a fee for using the air conditioning, the home has plenty of outdoor spaces where you can catch a breeze, and there's that inviting pool, too. Nearby you'll find plenty of restaurants and bars, while sandy beaches are within walking distance.

Sunbather on the Roof

Sitting in an elevated position above the stunning Vale de Parra, this home feels like a tropical oasis from the outside. The green gardens are scattered with tiki parasols and sun loungers, and also feature a gorgeous freeform pool. Swaying palm trees and colourful flowers add to this summer haven, all creating a blissful backdrop for days spent in the sun – and there's also a rooftop terrace for watching sunsets over the distant ocean views. Inside, you'll find the whitewashed walls and grand archways you'd expect from any Portuguese villa – it may seem a little old-fashioned, and the kitchen could do with an update – but we reckon it makes a wonderfully welcoming home-from-home for a laidback stay. 

Tropics & Tradition

Located in the quiet area of Gale, this villa is located just minutes from some of the most beautiful beaches in the Algarve. While there are plenty of restaurants and bars within a ten-minute walk, we highly recommend renting a car to go and explore the old town of Albufeira. This home has plenty of outdoor space, which is ideal if you’re travelling with little ones who need to blow off some steam. The lawned garden and private pool are the ideal spots to soak up the sunshine, while the barbecue and covered dining terrace are perfect for alfresco evenings.


Far Far Away

Indoor Pool

Situated in Albufeira on the stunning Algarve coastline, this elegant villa is a cool, calming place to retreat to after exploring this stretch of southern Portugal. Step inside and the decor is clean and neutral, with high gloss tiles providing a bit of sparkle and a vibrant teal sofa taking centre stage in the living area. Natural light floods into the room from the generous windows and patio doors, enticing you out into the garden to enjoy the warming rays of the sun. 

The outdoor area isn’t vast, but it certainly packs a punch. The sparkling blue pool offers a welcome spot to cool down in the Portuguese heat. After a spot of swimming, climb out and settle down on your bright yellow sun loungers, like bursts of sunshine surrounding the pool. Pour yourself a glass of nicely chilled white wine, grab your holiday read, and while away a few hours getting lost in a story as your loved ones chat happily around you.

When you’re keen to get out and explore, take a trip into Albufeira for a bite to eat, or if the coast is calling your name, it’s just two kilometres to the sands of Praia Mónica Isabel beach. With bags to explore in the area, you’re spoilt for choice. 

Burst of Sunshine

Pool / Snooker Table

Free Parking

Amongst the action of the Algarve's picturesque coastline, this marble villa is perfect for a laid-back family stay. The games room and swimming pool will be sure to keep kids busy, while adults can make use of the brick-built barbecue for dining on the terrace. It’s certainly not short of outside living areas – complete with wonderful views of the Algarve and beyond. Golf-lovers will appreciate the number of courses dotted throughout the area, and sea worshipers aren’t far from wonderful coastline – a ten-minute drive will take you to the popular beaches of Praia de Manuel Lourenco and Praia do Evaristo for days of basking on the shore.

Terracotta Views

We absolutely love the feel of this house. Combining authentic Portuguese charm with quirky touches such as the mosaic detailing in the living/dining and the carefully curated collection of colourful art, as soon as you enter you get a real sense of the home's unique identity and can tell how much love and care has been put into the finishing and maintaining of it. 

With three twin bedrooms, one double, and two extra sleeping places in the communal areas of the home, we think it would be ideal for extended family groups or a friends' getaway, whilst its prime location close to the restaurants, bars, and cafés of this part of Albufeira – as well as just 500 metres from the nearest sandy beach – make it a great base for a special holiday in the Algarvian sun. 

Start your day with a dip in the inviting turquoise waters of the swimming pool as the scent of the lemon trees warming in the sun begins to hang heavier in the air, before enjoying a leisurely breakfast on one of the numerous terraces. Perhaps you'll go to the beach, or into town to check out the shops and sample some of the fresh seafood delicacies on offer. Or maybe you'll finally make a dent in that book. No matter how your day pans out, come together in the evening by the traditional wood-fired barbecue to enjoy a homecooked feast of delectable local produce picked up from a local supermarket. 

One of our favourites has got to be the flavourful chicken piri-piri from this region. So why not try to replicate those spicy, savoury flavours before grilling it to perfection –yourself? Though you could always just head down towards the strip and get a taste of the real thing if you've hung up your chef's hat for the week...

Look forward to relaxing in the garden, alternating between the hot tub, private pool and dining terrace. There's also a balcony with sun loungers for topping up your tan. Inside, the gym comes in handy after one too many pasteis de nata and the billiards table is a definitive hit.

Nice to haves

The best of the Algarve awaits at this sunny yellow townhouse villa, quietly removed from the bustle of Albuferia in the residential district of Mosqueira.

Idle away the day, soaking up the sunshine from your private pool, or beat the heat inside this light and airy home. There's heaps of space to sprawl out with a good book in the living area or crash out with a movie in the designated cinema room complete with projector. As dusk begins to settle, fire up the barbecue to feast on fresh seafood you picked up at the nearby local shops. Or mooch along to the charming neighbourhood eateries on your doorstep for traditional marisco and small plates of queijo, all washed down with a glass of something crisp.

If you fancy a little more bustle, the restaurants flanking Albufeira's seafront and charming old town square peppered with bars, galleries, and shops is an evening well spent and just a four-kilometre drive away. And when the sea finally comes calling, you won't have far to go. Jump in the car to uncover Algarve's magnificent beaches, starting at Praia Olhos de Agua, just a five-kilometre drive away.

Mellow in Yellow

Occupying a prime spot on the ever-popular Algarve coast, this spacious villa can comfortably accommodate your family or a group of your closest friends thanks to its spacious open layout and double-height atrium that ensures plenty of natural light. Outdoors, a private lap pool sits surrounded by sun loungers, while a sweeping outdoor staircase leads up to the first-floor en-suite bedrooms, which offer glimpses of the nearby ocean. There are some intimate cliff-backed beaches within walking distance, with family-friendly Praia Grande offering a playground, plus pedalo and kayak hire, a short drive away. Elsewhere, golf aficionados will surely appreciate the villa's proximity to several world-class courses.

Portuguese Peony

Chic, contemporary, and central, this immaculately decorated three-bedroom apartment located in a popular part of Albufeira offers a calming and tranquil retreat – and a great base for your explorations of the Algarve coast. 

Right on your doorstep, you will find a host of restaurants, bars, and cafés serving everything from traditional Portuguese fayre to Thai food, whilst the buzzing beaches of this lively coastal resort are just a stone's throw away. You'll also find supermarkets and a range of smaller artisanal shops, as well as an excellent golf course just five kilometres away. With so much on offer in the local area, it's just as well that you have a comfortable base from which to start out! 

The apartment itself exudes an understated elegance, as expansive white walls are accented with carefully chosen art, mirrors, and light features, whilst sleek modern fixtures and furniture bring warmth and homeliness to the space. 

There is also a fabulous shared infinity pool on the roof, offering fantastic views of the town, so there's no need to leave the building if you fancy a quick dip before drying off in the sun.

Modern Albufeira Flair

Sound System

Situated in a resort along Albufeira’s golden coast, this villa will suit families looking to experience Algarve living. The minimal interior is functional but bright, with plenty of space to enjoy quiet moments and family time. While this is somewhat of a touristic location, you can unwind effortlessly within the privacy of this inviting villa – kids will love swimming in the pool while the terrace is primed for barbecued feasts. The coastline isn’t too far – with Praia da Ponta Pequena and Praia de São Rafael within walking distance. Though you’ll have local eateries at your fingertips, the centre of Albufeira is a short drive away, where you’ll find a more diverse array of restaurants. 

Beachy Brights

This southern Portuguese home boasts a luscious garden and a private swimming pool as well as a covered alfresco dining area – perfect for taking advantage of the brick-built barbecue and Algarvian sunshine. While the interior aesthetics won’t appeal to everyone, this family-friendly home is both comfortable and functional, with three of the four bedrooms comprising twin beds. Location-wise, it’s also pretty handy – Praia da Galé is the nearest beach and there’s a good selection of local eateries within a short stroll.

Sunshine Yellows

Simple yet comfortable, this villa ensures a stress-free stay for all of its guests. To the rear of the home, there’s a fenced swimming pool (ideal if you have the little ones in tow) and a covered terrace with a built-in barbecue for grilled lunches in the sunshine. While the interior isn’t the most inspiring, there’s enough space for the whole group to relax. Beach-wise, Praia do Castelo is around a fifteen-minute walk away and Praia do Galé’s three miles of golden sand is reached in a couple of minutes by car.
