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

This white-washed villa puts Albufeira at your fingertips. The marina is a short stroll away, golden beaches are a five-minute drive, and Old Town's restaurants, shops and cafes are twenty minutes on foot. Not a bad spot to call home. The garden is perfect for enjoying afternoon swims in the pool (which can be heated for a cost) as well as alfresco meals under the stars. Inside, the single beds can convert into doubles to suit your needs, and the lower-level games room has a sofa bed that can sleep the ninth and tenth guests for an additional fee.

Alabaster Summer

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

Close to the charming village of Guia and an array of stunning beaches, this gorgeous villa boasts a large private pool, a summer kitchen, and lovely gardens. The style throughout the house is bold and might not be to everyone's taste, but the separate annexe offers some extra privacy for up to four guests, giving everyone enough room to stretch their legs. We love the on-site equestrian facilities, available to use for an additional fee, and your host can arrange a plethora of other local tours and activities to make your stay truly special.

The Sun-Kissed Pearl

Just a short drive from golden beaches and boasting gorgeous views, this Mediterranean-style home is minimal and cosy. The patio has space for alfresco dining, and the main bedroom has its own balcony with enough room to sit out on. All the bedrooms are upstairs, and the rooftop terrace has seating and is great for sharing drinks or doing morning yoga. You'll also have access to a communal resort-style pool and playground, making this home extra suitable for families travelling with little ones.

The Splendour of the Seas

If you were to cross the sea in a straight line due south from this villa on the Algarve coast, you'd eventually reach Morocco and it's clear that this home's design has been influenced by its cross-continental neighbour.

Inside, this can be seen with the ogee-shaped light fittings and artwork, but it's the Berber-style tent area outside that captures the spirit of North Africa best. Here, it's possible to escape the hottest part of the afternoon on a comfy pouffe or to relax after dinner with a session on the shisha pipe.

Elsewhere outside, guests will find a long swimming pool, an outdoor kitchen and an alfresco dining table on the green-tiled terrace. There are even covered balconies leading off from some of the bedrooms where you can look out over the rooftops of nearby Galé.

There's no shortage of beaches in this corner of the world, with Praia dos Calvoeiros only six minutes' walk away. Albufeira and its Old Town take just over ten minutes to reach in the car, too.

Moroccan Marriage

This awesome Algarve home is a modernist masterpiece. Characterised by its contemporary design and featuring a light-filled open plan kitchen, dining and living room complete with double height ceilings and near floor to ceiling sliding glass doors which open out onto the poolside deck and barbecue area, this perfect Portuguese home is stylish, sleek and sophisticated. 

You’ll love taking your morning coffee out onto the balcony which spans the whole of the front of the house, lazing on loungers in the sun and luxuriating in your private, outdoor pool. Barbecue a feast of fresh meat or fish before dining alfresco beside the pool or on the covered terrace in the garden. At the day’s end inhale the fragrant scent of summer while wandering about the garden or make a beeline for the balcony at cocktail-o-clock. As the light fades, enjoy gathering around the glass-topped table for a game or cards or kick back and relax on the L-shaped sofa for movie night. 

Alternatively, if you fancy getting out and about, your villa’s enviable location in the heart of Albufeira means you’re within walking distance of the sandy beach and Alfarrobeira Garden while the Old Town and the Strip, both famous for their shops, restaurants and bars are only three minutes away by car.


Modernist Marvel

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

A few minutes from the neon-lit Rua da Oura – a lively strip of nighttime eateries and dance clubs, this contrasting villa is the picture of idyllic rest. Only a twenty-minute stroll from the sands of Santa Eulália, you'll be staying on the edge of Albufeira, where a white-washed old town serves as the perfect escape from modernity. Whether you're scuba diving or dolphin watching, this coastal city ensures you'll never be bored.

We love how this indoor living space centres around a skylit dome –  the ideal spot for curling up on the couch and discussing your daily plans. Imagine yourself sipping meia-de-leite by the pool and observing sunsets from a cosy hammock. When it comes to spending quality time with your loved ones, just retreat to the four-poster garden bed for a chat. Maybe you'll keep things simple with a Portuguese barbecue, but did you know you can hire a professional chef to cook dinner for your whole family?

Arch of Light

Traditional and cosy, this home in Albufeira has everything you need to settle in. Outside, a private pool promises plenty of fun in the sun. You can sprawl out on the sunloungers, cocktail in hand, or fire up the barbecue for an alfresco feast. There's even a roof terrace – just the spot for sundowners. Head indoors and you'll find a breezy living space, a well-appointed (although slightly dated) kitchen, and a collection of comfortable bedrooms. Topping it all off is the location. Beaches, bars, and buzzy Albufeira are all a short drive away.

Albufeira Allure

Tucked away in the small town of Guia, just a fifteen-minute drive from Albufeira, this charming home is in an idyllic location for exploring the Algarve. Here, you're a short walk away from the soft sands of Praia da Galé, a tranquil gem boasting an enchanting landscape of rock formations, golden dunes and natural pools. Visit on balmy evenings for a front-row seat to glorious sunsets.

You'll find this home on a leafy street, nestled in a cluster of white, terracotta-tiled villas. Inside, rooms are cloaked in a colour palette of warm, earthy tones and adorned in Moroccan inspired decor. Painted a regal shade of blue, you'll love cooking in the fully-fitted kitchen. Brew your morning coffee here and sip it alfresco on one of the ample balconies. Indeed, this home impresses with its outdoor spaces. Spend leisurely days on the sun-drenched patio, or lounge in the shade under the riad inspired covered terrace. There's also a playground for the little ones and a quaint garden, fenced-off for absolute privacy. 

We love the private pool, a sparkling oasis bordered by lush palms and a rustic, cerulean-tiled barbecue grill. After a day of exploring, gather here for evening cookouts before retreating indoors for a friendly game of pool. On cooler nights, spend time curled up by the fireplace reminiscing on the day's adventures.
