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.

Sleek and elegant, this Funchal apartment is an ideal base for a small family or two couples on a Madeira stay. We love the private balcony with sea views – just the spot to start the day, coffee and pastel de nata in hand. Suitably nourished, you’ll find plenty to occupy your time in the local area. With shops, cafes, restaurants and bars a stone’s throw away, authentic Portuguese food is always on the menu. Fancy cooling off in the heat? Formosa Beach and the Lido promenade and pools are within easy reach.

This Caldas de Aregos home is perfect for a relaxing break in Portugal. It’s surrounded by nature in the Douro region, where you can take a cruise along the river and discover local vineyards. If you’re anything like us, you’ll spend most of your time outside, swimming in the private pool and lounging in the sunshine. There’s a barbecue for alfresco dining, and a fully-equipped kitchen inside. We love the blend of traditional features like wood-beamed ceilings with a bohemian vibe – this is a charming and comfortable space to call home.

This wonderful home is the kind you’ll fondly daydream about when you’re back at home, listening to drizzle patter against the windows. Everything you might want or need during your stay has been thought of in this luxurious and welcoming home, so you can focus on enjoying every last second of your break. 

The villa is bright and stylish, with decor and finishes that would be at home in an interior design magazine. It’s beautiful, with splashes of colour adding warmth and fun. You’ll wake up to feel the sunshine on your pillow, tempting you to head through the floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors outside to the terrace. Sip an espresso as you breathe in the warm, sweet-scented air. 

The outside space has been as thoughtfully considered as the house. There’s something for everyone, whether you’re a sun-worshipper or prefer to lounge in the shade. Table tennis will keep the big kids entertained, while you cool off in the refreshing solar-heated pool. There’s a gym inside, too, so you can easily get a workout in – though we might be more tempted by a yoga session on the terrace. 

When you want to explore further afield, you might stroll to Galé beach, or perhaps hop in the car to visit Troia. History buffs will enjoy seeing the Roman ruins at Cetobriga, while golfers might choose to stay closer to home – Troia Golf is a five-minute drive from the villa. This is truly a holiday home with something for everyone – you’ll never want to leave.

Sit back, relax, and soak up the sun at this Portuguese villa. It has everything you need to feel at home – including a large open-plan living area, an outdoor ping-pong table, and a dazzling swimming pool where you can float the afternoon away. Consider yourself a sporty type? You'll have access to a nearby tennis court and golf course, too. Lisbon is a thirty-five-minute drive away and ideal for a day trip. That said, with the beautiful beaches of Costa da Caparica five minutes by car, we reckon most of your time will be spent on the sand.

Sharing its sea views and its fabulous infinity pool with just one neighbouring home, this modern villa is in a quiet, rural part of the island. The interiors are minimalist and strikingly contemporary, with all-white walls, pale wood floors and bespoke matching furniture. Simple and stylish throughout, floor-to-ceiling windows make the most of the panoramic vistas and the bathroom features a natural stone wall and sliding glass doors to a private courtyard. But it's the outside space that dominates this place. A sun terrace with access to the pool is the perfect spot for evening drinks, while a private balcony off one of the bedrooms is a peaceful place for morning coffee. The infinity pool seems to spill over the edge of one of the island's typically steep slopes and the sea views from here are simply breathtaking. And for a real treat, spend some time each evening in your private hot tub, a quirky circular outdoor bath sunken into the sloping lawn. Best of all, you'll have access to the owner's lush subtropical gardens, filled with fresh fruit, palm trees and herbs. Beneath you, banana farmers go about their business, tending their crops, and it's a pleasant stroll down to the sea, while keen walkers will be able to hike off uphill to take in even more impressive views.

Sitting close to the point at which Trás-os-Montes crosses over to the famed Alto-Douro wine region, this nine-hectare oak forest was abandoned in the middle of the 20th century and mother nature allowed to run her course. That is until 2010 when the farmhouse hidden away on the site was almost completely reconstructed into this incredible holiday home.

There are a few stone walls and wooden beams that hark back to this history, but otherwise, it's a strikingly modern affair, with a stylish collection of artwork, decorative items and furnishings waiting to be discovered throughout the space. There are so many aspects you're sure to be enamoured by as you take a tour, from the minimalist kitchen to the freestanding tub in the master bathroom.

That's not to forget the fabulous amenities here, either. If you're after a dose of relaxation, you're in luck – not only is there an indoor swimming pool, there's a sauna and Jacuzzi to retire to afterwards. There's also a fair bit of outside space for making the most of sunny weather, including a terrace with seating.

Plus, there's a whole range of distractions that lie nearby, too. Parque Natural do Alvão is a short drive away if you're ever in the mood for long rambles through scenic Portuguese countryside, while there are a number of towns close by – Vila Real and Régua among them – in which you can get acquainted with the region's rich gastronomic traditions. 

Regrowth & Rebirth

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.

Underfloor Heating

Admire the aquamarine sea and blue hues in this amazing villa. The roof terrace is where you'll be spending most of your time, with a gas barbeque, bar, and a pool, what else could you want? Spend your evenings relaxing on the terrace, drinking wine and tucking into the traditional Portuguese cuisine.  Put your bartender hat on and practice making cocktails at the rooftop bar, and sip the night away listening to your favourite songs. 

The living room boasts a balcony that has a gorgeous view of the ocean, giving you ample opportunity to see the plethora of boats that sail past daily. You'll find two beaches nearby, so you can spend your days in the sun with the sand between your toes. There's also a variety of eateries in the area, so take your pick and dine out in style.

This striking home looks like it's been taken straight from the pages of Architectural Digest. With its clean lines and sharp angles, it presents a space that will be loved by design buffs and those fond of a sleek and modern space that invites a free flow of light to radiate in abundance. 

From the mid-century furniture pieces to the south-facing glass wall and stunning home library – every last detail of the house has been carefully curated with meticulous attention to detail. 

The serene setting of the home will have you feeling relaxed from the moment you walk through the door. So curl up with a coffee and your chosen book, and sit with your feet up for a spot of relaxation. On warmer days, you'll find heaven in the nature-filled garden, which boasts a private swimming pool and plenty of outdoor seating to soak up the sun. 

Come evening, serve up a delectable home-cooked Portuguese inspired meal at the stylish dining area before winding down with a glass of wine in front of the home cinema projector. 

The nearest city is Braga; just a twenty-five minute drive away, where you'll find shops, bars and restaurants alike. And if you don't mind venturing a little further, the unmissable city of Porto is reachable in fifty-five minutes by car.

Find total relaxation in the immersive countryside of Portugal’s verdant Minho region. With bucolic scenery of rolling hills and picturesque valleys, this renovated stone brick villa is a gorgeous place to unwind. As much as lounging by the pool and basking in nature will keep you entertained for hours, the kids might get itchy feet – luckily, they have plenty to keep them busy with a play area and an array of sports games.

Although this villa has been renovated, it’s retained its original charm. Bursting with countryside character, it has a warmth that’s perfect for families. From dinners around the banquet-style dining table to cosy evenings watching films on the sofa, you’ll love the comfort of this traditional vila. But this home is not without its luxuries – there’s even a Turkish-style steam room.

The interior is lovely, but the commanding outdoors takes the cake. Spellbinding views pull you out to the pool, where you’ll spend blissful hours reading, drinking fresh smoothies, and taking dips in the water to cool off. And after an afternoon of badminton or volleyball on the grass, you’ll love sipping a glass of Vinho Verde, the local wine, while looking out to the changing sky.

When it comes to exploring, this dreamy corner of Portugal really has everything. Explore the charming town of Paredes de Coura, a fifteen-minute drive away, and spend an afternoon on the Taboão River Beach. Or take to Corno do Bico Protected Landscape for gorgeous mountainous terrain, overlooking the town below.

This home is really made for spending time outdoors, with so many places to relax as the sun warms your skin. Overlooking your crystal blue pool is a delightful undercover seating area, so if you aren’t dining alfresco, you can pop your feet up on the comfortable white chaise with a glass of wine in hand. Venture inside and it’s just as charming – picture neutral colours, natural materials and wonderful open-plan spaces ideal for entertaining. We love the bedrooms, in particular – each has its own colour theme providing a calming effect to complement the tasteful modern artwork. 

On your way to the beach, just 2km away, crawl into the local restaurant for a spot of lunch. Comporta's coastlines are picturesque, perfect for lounging in the sand and catching the rays. After a day of soaking up the Portuguese sunshine, be sure to gather your loved ones around the built-in barbecue back at home for an evening watching the sunset and indulging in divine local ingredients. A beautiful contemporary villa with a relaxing zen feeling will be the backdrop to a wonderful holiday to remember. 

Woven in Magic

Settle into this cosy wooden cabin on the Minho coastline, ideal for a long weekend or couple's retreat. The large communal pool and children's play area offer entertainment and a refreshing break from the Portuguese sun, while the private patio boasts room to dine alfresco and work on that perfect tan. While space indoors is limited, the kitchen is fully equipped and one guest can be accommodated on the sofa bed. We think it's worth having a car here for getting around with ease, but if you don't drive, fear not. The centre of Fão is a breezy stroll away, while the golden sands of Praia de Ofir are easily reachable on foot.

If you long for a quiet retreat in a quaint cottage by the sea, your search is over – this home will tick every one of your holiday boxes and more. Nestled in São Jorge on the northern coast of Madeira, this is seclusion at its finest. Mere metres away from the beach, your home looks out over the Atlantic with a mountainous backdrop. 

Step inside, and the open-plan space ushers natural light in from every angle. Small in size but still packing a significant punch, you’ll find everything you need for a memorable stay. We love the terrace area  – how could you ever tire of that view? Many happy hours will be spent here, tucked up on the sofa, the barbecue sizzling away in the background and the smell of the food mixing with the unmistakable scent of the ocean that wraps itself around you. As you listen to the sound of the waves lapping against the shore, pour yourself a glass of wine and simply enjoy the moment with your loved ones. They say time flies when you’re having fun – before you know it, the sun will have dropped below the ocean and a blanket of stars will have opened out above you. Weary from the fresh sea air and the pure bliss of a day doing nothing, you can head to bed with wonderful memories and the promise of more to come. 

Sun, Sea & Solitude

Games Console

This restored farmhouse sits in the nature-rich Portuguese region of Minho, encircled by valleys, sparkling rivers, plenty of cycling routes, and historical towns. You get a beautiful slice of that breathtaking nature from your countryside oasis. 

Whether you’re playing football on the soft grass, admiring the view from the terrace, or listening to the birds chatter while lying around the pool, nature is all around. You’re even welcomed by bougainvillea and cypress trees as you approach the stone brick home.

You’ll first notice the home’s traditional façade. Made up of three houses, two of which have long histories – the main house was a baker's, and the annexe, now a games room, was a distillery. Make use of the original bread and pizza oven for unforgettable meals, and whittle away evenings playing pool and drinking local wine. 

There’s plenty to keep you entertained here, but perhaps all you really want is to catch up on your book beside the pool. Let the hours drift by, breathing in the fresh country air while topping up your tan. Come dusk, the place to be is your balcony – nothing beats watching the sun dip into the sea. 

When it’s time to explore, you’re less than a mile from Afife and its beachy cafes, surf shops, seafood restaurants, and long stretch of sugary white sand. When you’re not catching waves or relaxing on the beach, hop on a hiking trail to one of the nearby waterfalls and discover the rugged mountain range. 

Valleys & Views

Nestled within mature gardens and surrounded by hilly countryside, this Portuguese pad is both stylish and secluded. Located between the historic fortified town of Caminha and the golden sands of Vila Praia de Ancora – just 10 minutes away – this captivating casa offers access to a wealth of stunning natural landscapes, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque architecture and sensational local food and wine. We don’t know about you, but that sounds like heaven to us.

You’ll love taking your morning coffee at the breakfast bar in the open-plan living area before stepping out into the garden. Bagsy one of the loungers and get stuck into your holiday read while topping up your tan on the poolside patio. You’ll be treated to countryside and even sea views from here. Feel revived with a refreshing dip in your private, outdoor pool before sauntering over to the barbecue area. Gorge on Portuguese eats while sat around the wooden dining table on the covered terrace.

If you fancy amping up the luxe factor, why not indulge in an at-home massage? Believe it or not, you’ll also be able to enjoy the services of a beautician and a private chef. Alternatively, if you can bring yourselves to part with such privacy, you’ll be able to try your hand at wine and olive oil tasting, horse riding, golf, and a variety of water sports.

Parking On Street

With a location dubbed 'the sunniest place in Madeira', it's little wonder this home is committed to letting so much of the outside in. Floor-to-ceiling glass windows and sliding doors flood the modern villa with light and, more importantly, give you front-row seats to breathtaking views over the ocean and hillside. The interiors are sharp and clean, with white-washed walls, cream colours and the occasional pop of teal. The large living space has enough room for your whole group, from dining at the glass table to chilling out on one of the luxury beanbags. Even the games room feels futuristic thanks to a white, curved pool table and matching foosball table. No matter how much you love the modernity of this spot, most of your time will invariably be spent soaking up the vista, whether from the infinity pool or one of the loungers. While restaurants and bars are a drive away, the back garden has its own bar and barbecue area for you to practise your grilling and mixology skills.
