If you're looking for some of Europe's finest beaches then this charming villa in the beautiful wine region of Caramujeira, just a short drive from Praia da Marinha and Praia de Benagil is right on the money. Inside, it's traditional and stylish. There's a considered use of homely touches, from the whicker decor and local photography to the antique urn and small stove fireplace, so you'll feel right at home from the get-go. 

Now, correct us if we're wrong, but summer in the Algarve is best spent outdoors. And, at this pretty villa, you'll have a choice of several outdoor sitting and dining areas to bask in the warm weather. While away sun-soaked afternoons in the hammock, sip poncha cocktails on the sun loungers, and fire up the barbecue in the outdoor kitchen for a lazy lunch on the shady terrace.

When it's time to head out, head to Benagil for hidden sea caves and picturesque hiking trails between the limestone cliffs, just a short drive from your doorstep. If you’d like to soak up the local history and culture, the lively village of Carvoeiro, where you'll find many feel-good eateries, boutique shops and hip bars, is just 5 kilometres away.

If we could set the scene for your dream holiday, what would it look like? If you’re imagining a private villa – with a pool, naturally – with space for family and friends to gather and views of the ocean stretching out before you, then this is the home for you. Situated close to Carvoeiro, you’re close enough to all the action, but far enough away that you can soak up the peace and tranquillity that this home offers in bucket loads. 

It’s not just about the location with this home, either. Step inside, and you’re met with pure elegance. Your living area offers a sofa big enough for everyone to sink into and share stories about their day. The open-plan kitchen and dining area is chic and classy, allowing whoever is on cooking duties for the evening to still be a part of the conversation with those gathered around the dining table. Of course, you may not want to cook – if not, there’s a delightful Italian restaurant a mere 100 metres away. 

Wander out onto your terrace, and your eyes will be drawn to the sea vistas. Take a refreshing dip in your private pool and gaze out over the ocean as you feel the breeze coming off the coast and brushing over your skin, leaving the salt water scent hanging in the air. After a while, settle down on a sun lounger with your holiday read and get lost in another world as the Portuguese sun warms your skin. The only downside to this beautiful home, is that you may never want to leave. 

Ocean Horizon

Whether you're enjoying breakfast on the terrace, taking an afternoon dip in the private pool or ending the evening with cocktails under the stars, this breezy villa is made for relaxing. Life is easy as can be here. One glance at the sun beaming in the clear blue skies and you'll feel your troubles melt away. 

Spend your days lolling about in the garden, dashing between the swimming pool to the lounge chairs and back again. Need a break from the rays? Stretch out on the leather sofas for a quick snooze in the living area, then wake up to the smell of piri-piri chicken sizzling on the barbecue. As the night slowly rolls in, gather the whole brood together and dine alfresco on the covered terrace, keeping the conversation (and the local wine) flowing well into the night. 

When you fancy a change of scenery, set off and explore Carvoeiro. Both the town and beach are within walking distance, so you'll be able to enjoy the variety of restaurants, cafes and scenic outlooks on foot. Also worth doing is The Seven Valleys hike – the perfect way to admire the Algarve's stunning scenery.

Wake up each morning to the sound of the waves lapping at the shore, as you sip a coffee on the spacious balcony out front and watch the town come to life around you. Step back through the sliding doors and you'll find a recently renovated living space and kitchen that is both casual and contemporary – the perfect match for your beachside setting. 

In the bedroom, an abundance of storage space helps maintain the relaxed minimalist style, while a vast super king-size bed guarantees a comfortable night's sleep. In addition, floor-to-ceiling sliding doors offer easy access to the balcony.

The former fishing village of Carvoeiro boasts one of the finest beaches along this picturesque stretch of the coast. However, there's more on offer than soaking up the sun on its golden sands. Those with a sense of adventure might like to embark on a boat trip to the magnificent Benagil cave. Alternatively, why not rise early and set out on the 12km out-and-back Sete Vales trail, with its spectacular clifftop coastal vistas.

Nestled on the outskirts of Caroveiro, when dining out tickles your fancy, it’s a short stroll to a plethora of restaurants and only fifteen minutes on foot to the town centre.

Sea Full Of A Dream

This home is perfectly positioned to explore the charming oceanside town of Carvoeiro and the broader Algarve region of sunny Portugal.

A Rose on the Shore

Rooftop Terrace

Enjoy a charming stay at this stylish townhouse, based on the western side of Lagoa in Portugal. This peaceful abode features serene interiors, together with gorgeous outdoor areas – along with all the mod cons necessary to make your stay convenient and comfortable. We are particularly impressed with the sunny roof terrace, complete with loungers and sun umbrellas – creating a private little paradise where you can kick back and relax.

Start each day with a delicious Portuguese breakfast of fresh breads, cheeses and meats, and tuck in at your trendy breakfast bar. Spend the afternoon sunbathing on your roof terrace with a glass of Prosecco from the wine cooler, or enjoying the shade on your hidden courtyard with a good book. As the evening rolls in, gather round your wood burner fireplace or cosy up on the sofa with a movie on the TV.

You’re perfectly located to explore Lagoa from your little townhouse, with the Lady in Red gallery being a short journey away, as well as lots of bars and restaurants right on your doorstep.

A stay here means you'll have access to the shared outdoor pool and tennis court, ideal for spending days in the sunshine.

This lovely townhouse is a great choice for a relaxing break in Portugal. You’ll have multiple terraces to unwind on and can enjoy ocean views. The swimming pool is shared with nearby homes, but when you want to spread out more you can stroll to Praia Grande to kick back on the beach. You’ll also be close to the attractive fishing village of Ferragudo, where you can meander along the seafront and dine alfresco. This home is a little dated in places so it won’t suit those seeking a slick, modern abode, but it’s a comfortable base, and the outside space is a real treat. 

The Blossoming Bays

Just a stone's throw from the warm golden sands of Praia do Vau, this modern apartment is located in a closed complex with a large communal pool and lovely gardens. The open-plan living area boasts a cosy balcony with enough space for alfresco dining, and the main bedroom enjoys a second small balcony with room to sit out and unwind. You won't need to drive to make the most of your stay, but your host can help arrange a car rental if needed. They can also provide a range of baby equipment at an additional cost, making family holidays a breeze.

True Sunshine

We love the bold use of colour in this home, making it feel modern and characterful – and it provides all the amenities you'll need for a happy home-from-home stay.

Drop off your bags and make a beeline for your private rooftop terrace, complete with sun loungers, a dining area and stunning sea views. Mornings begin out here, clutching an iced coffee and a pastel de nata as you decide whether it's a relaxing day by the pool or a fun-filled trip to the golden sand of Praia da Rocha, just 500m away. 

The sleek sliding glass doors set up seamless indoor-outdoor living, bathing the home in natural sunlight. Stepping inside, you'll find a plush island kitchen with a sociable breakfast bar that means you can cook for your guests while chatting over a glass of wine. Traditional azulejo-tiled flooring and duck egg blue walls create a soothing space to relax, while the bedrooms are just as modern and peaceful – there's even a dedicated desk area for those working from home. 

When you're not working or simply basking in the blissful atmosphere of your sun-soaked terrace, head downstairs for a refreshing dip in the communal pool. Alternatively, keep up your weekly fitness routine with a swim in the resort's indoor pool or a workout in the well-equipped gym. Later, don your finest tennis whites on the shared courts as the sun goes down, before rustling up a grilled supper on the barbecue patio.

If you can peel yourself away from this light-filled apartment and the resort's fabulous amenities, take some time to discover the old port city of Portimão just a short drive away. As evening draws in, we recommend a trip to the old marina for dinner – you'll find a sprinkling of waterfront restaurants and cocktail bars lining the harbour.

Overlooking the white sands of highly sought after Praia Grande beach is this rustic and charming villa in a renovated former bee cottage. The villa broods harmony between raw nature, beautiful coastline, and easy living to match the charm of the Portuguese fishing village. The lush garden provides space for children to roam while the adults watch from plush sun loungers. As soon as you bore of the pool, just 600m away lies the stunning white beach. One of our favourite highlights was the private steps that led from the villa right out onto the sand, providing immediate beach access. Aside from time spent relaxing at the seaside-chic villa, the outside area of the town provides sailing boat rental, canoeing, and a bustling village square with local fare and fishermen showcasing the catch of the day.

Located just steps away from one of Algarve’s legendary sandy beaches, this elegant and cosy apartment is an ideal base for a small family or a couple looking to leave the stresses of everyday life behind and enjoy a relaxing stay in the sun.

We love the wooden floors, stylish light fixtures and light-filled interior, which puts you immediately in the holiday mood. You’ll be able to gaze out onto the sea from the comfort of your living room, and you can also enjoy drinks out on the balcony, with a gentle sea breeze on your face. 

The bright and well-equipped kitchen invites you to rustle up quick and delicious meals which you can share with your loved ones at the dining table with enough space for four. For a night of restful sleep head to the bedroom, with its striking green wall and nautical theme. Wake up restored and welcome the new day with a cup of freshly brewed coffee out on the balcony. 

Outside your modern residence, you’ll be in close proximity to many cafes and restaurants, and you can also drive to an array of exciting activities, including a surf school, a golf course and riding stables, all located within a fifteen-minute drive from your home. 

Let's Build Sandcastles 

Take in the sea glimpses from this home's private, spacious balcony – there's room to relax and dine here. The interiors are light and roomy, too, but we're not sure you'll be spending much time indoors when there's a large shared garden and swimming pool on offer. On top of this, the resort of Portimão, with its shops, restaurants and bars, is a short stroll away, as is the lovely sandy beach, Praia do Amado. Or, history lovers can hop in the car and visit the nearby Roman ruins of Quinta da Abicada.

Light Waves & Sunshine

Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, this chic home promises a privileged position on the Algarve. Only a 350-metre amble from your front door, why not sunbathe on the cliff-hugged Praia da Marinha – widely considered one of Europe's best beaches for scenic beauty? Alternatively, we think a trip to Carvoeiro is worth the 9 kilometre drive for its watersports and nightlife. Further inland, birdwatchers flock to the Arrozal Nossa Senhora do Rosário.

With its cosy fireplace and cooling marble floors, this beautiful villa serves as a great home base during any time of year. If you don't fancy dining under the domed ceiling, simply serve your meals alfresco, instead. Just imagine unwinding beneath blue skies and treating everyone to poolside cocktails. Once you grow peckish after a coastal adventure, how about firing up the barbecue and trying Portuguese piri-piri chicken? Later on, sneak away from your loved ones and savour a peaceful moment, admiring the elevated sea views from the sun-soaked terrace.

Along the Coast

Jacuzzi

Tucked away in Silves in the Algarve region, a short drive from Marinha Beach and within walking distance of the historic castle and town centre, this apartment is a modern pad for couples or small families. You'll have private use of a jacuzzi and a terrace, complete with a barbecue, so you can enjoy alfresco meals together. While some areas of the home are a little compact, you’ll find everything you need to feel right at home. If you’re planning to travel as a group of four, keep in mind two people will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area.

Algarve Bubbles

This magnificent mansion is perched atop the cliff at Praia da Marinha, offering breathtaking views of the ocean and beach. You can walk to the beach straight from the garden when you fancy a dip in the sea – as a change from swimming in the private pool. The pool sits in lush gardens close to several terraces – there’s no shortage of outside space here so you won’t feel crowded even when you’re travelling with a large group. Inside, the villa is authentically Portuguese, blending vintage style with modern comfort. Everything you might need is to hand here, whether it’s a barbecue or a cosy wood-burning stove. 

Eternal Sea Views

Desk / Workplace

Thanks to the unfiltered terrace views of the water, a location that’s a short distance from Ferragudo’s beaches and ultra-modern amenities, this home is comfort and holiday bliss personified. When you’re not laying in the sand at Pintadinho Beach or watching the waves lap the shore at Grande Beach, you’ll probably be outside, savouring the sunlight. 

Take a late-morning dip in the pool, rustle up a meal in the sleek kitchen and tuck into lunch on the dining bench. Your afternoons are made for sunbathing and enjoying the weather on a lounger, or if you want to escape the heat – lying up on the plush sofa where floor-to-ceiling windows still let you admire that sea view. Should you need to work remotely, there's a full home office with a monitor and printer set up in the open living area. Once the sun starts to set, head to the terrace with a glass of wine, relax and admire the scenic landscape tinged golden.

Agua Azul

Sitting pretty close to the Algarve's celebrated coastline, this villa treats guests to a panoramic view of the region's white rooftops and the Mediterranean Sea from the terrace up on the third floor – and this isn't the only bit of outside space. Head back down to the ground level and you'll find a peaceful private garden that leads out to larger communal grounds and a shared swimming pool.

Although you'll undoubtedly be spending a vast amount of your time here outside, you'll like what you see when you eventually have to head indoors. There's a traditional edge to the design, what with the terracotta tiles underfoot and the colourful artwork hung on whitewashed walls, but other parts feel way more contemporary – the bright and airy kitchen and bathrooms, in particular. 

When you want to see a little more of the local region, the local town of Armação de Pêra can be easily reached on foot and offers a 6km-long stretch of bay, plus lots of restaurants and nightlife. Further along the coastline, the destinations of Albufera and Faro, as well as a huge number of golf courses, lie not too far away by car.

Hugs & Kisses

Outdoor Kitchen

Nestled in one of the oldest towns in the Algarve, among the rooftops and winding roads, you’ll find this quirky townhouse. With 360 panoramic views over Silves and beyond, this home offers front row seats to the Mediterranean sunrise.

This home merges the old and new effortlessly, blending contemporary design with a historic backdrop for a truly unique travel experience. Step out of the patio doors and into the plunge pool for a refreshing dip before heading off for a day in the Old Town.

When you’re not out exploring the narrow streets and local landmarks, there’s plenty to see at home thanks to a roof terrace that houses an outdoor kitchen, sofa and even a shower if you’re in need of some relief from the Portuguese sun. The ideal date-night spot, have a go at cooking some local dishes together before retiring to the sun lounger to stargaze with a glass of wine.

Star of Silves

Situated on a resort, this one-bedroom townhouse offers up views of the countryside and Monchique mountains. Ideal for a couples retreat, you’ll find everything you need here, with the outside terraces a real treat – perfect for relaxing on with a glass of wine. With a communal pool, tennis courts, mini golf and an on-site restaurant, you won’t need to go far to entertain yourself in the Portuguese sun. If it’s the coast you seek, the beaches of Benagil and Marinha are just a short drive away.
