Almancil Family Friendly Hotel Alternatives

A Million Mosaics

• 8 guests

• 4 bedrooms

Quarteira, Loulé

Just about a kilometre from the nearest sandy beach of Praia do Cavalo Preto, you will find this striking holiday villa in the quintessential Portuguese town of Quarteira. We love how this home brings the outside in and, indeed, the inside out – thanks in part to the huge floor-to-ceiling windows that fill the living spaces with light and provide direct access to the garden and its outdoor kitchen with dining table, laid-back seating area, and shaded terraces that are perfect for getting out of the sun and into a good book.

In sunny Quinta do Lago, this villa offers a relaxing stay just a short drive from the beach. When you're not exploring the Algarve, the swimming pool is the perfect spot to while away the afternoon.

Seventies Vibes & Bougainvillea

• 15 guests

• 6 bedrooms

Quarteira, Loulé

With six luxurious bedrooms, four calm-inspiring bathrooms, an opulent 70s-style living area complete with a retro-feeling full bar and finished in complementary tones of teal and copper, as well as another reception area where you'll find brightly coloured furnishings and cool pop-art style pieces adorning the walls, this home reminds us of a Bond villain's secret bolt-hole. Equipped with an array of gadgetry that would give Goldfinger a run for his money, the quirky kitchen boasts countertop grilling stations on a central circular island that looks as though it was lifted straight out of a space station.
