This stylishly designed apartment is waiting to welcome you on your peaceful trip to the Algarve. The biggest draw of the home is, of course, the large rooftop terrace offering views over this scenic landscape, but we also adore the little balcony, overlooking the Ria Formosa lagoon nearby, perfect for morning coffees in the sunshine. You’ll be in a central spot, close to the ferry boat to Beach Island so you can spend time relaxing on Praia de Cabana, while the charming fishing village of Cabanas, with its delicious seafood restaurants, can be reached in just two minutes by foot.

Inside, it's a wonderfully bright and open living space, where you can sink into the modern modular sofa or gather around the sleek dining table at the end of a long day spent sunbathing or exploring. The bedrooms are just as light and comfortable, while the kitchen will make preparing supper a breeze.

Perched on the glistening Algarve, this family-size villa is the perfect setting for a relaxing coastal retreat.

Stepping outside, you’ll find plenty of other areas to unwind, from the outdoor dining space to the poolside sun loungers. Cool off with a quick dip in your private swimming pool, before drying off for lunch. The kitchen is fully equipped for rustling up a summer salad to go with a barbecue or a couple of snacks to accompany evening sundowners. All three bedrooms are bright and colourful, so whatever’s on your agenda, this place feels welcoming.

If you feel like a change of scenery, pack up your seaside essentials and take the ten-minute stroll down to the golden sands and turquoise waters of Alagoa beach. When dinnertime arrives, you'll find a sprinkling of beachfront tavernas and bars, just a short walk from your door.

This former olive mill, set in the historic coastal town of Tavira, has undergone quite the transformation in recent times – and we couldn’t love it more. Expertly reimagined into a three-storey townhouse, polished marble, parquet flooring, and contemporary interiors fuse together to glorious effect. 
 
An excellent choice for friends or extended family sharing, each bedroom sits on its own floor with an en-suite bathroom for a little extra privacy. And you’re all sorted if you plan to work, with a dedicated desk tucked away in a quiet corner on the top floor. 

Downstairs, the free-flowing living space leading out onto a charming private courtyard with views of the neighbouring church is made for socialising. Get together for a sunny alfresco breakfast of expressos and Pastel de Natas on the veranda, then pad over to the shared terraces for a dip in that sparkling pool surrounded by tumbling bougainvillaea and fragrant citrus trees.

When it’s time for a dose of sea air and culture, Tavira has got it in spades. Lose yourself to its warren of cobblestone streets on either side of the Rio Gilão dotted with cafes and restaurants, and shady squares. Or hop on the ferry bound for the coast – the unspoilt, golden shores of Ilha de Tavira are everything you’ve been daydreaming of.

The Olive Trail

Shared Pool

Moorish architecture and charm are at every turn with a stay at this crisp, contemporary townhouse set right in the beating heart of Tavira, one of the Algarve's most dazzling coastal town gems. Discover its shady squares, leafy gardens, a crumbling hilltop castle, and an old Roman bridge above the Gilão River. And just wait until you hop on the ferry bound for the unspoilt golden shores of Ilha de Tavira. Stretching for over ten kilometres and flanked by straw parasols and beachside restaurants, this is the East Coast at its best.

When it's time to beat the heat and rest up at home, you'll love this three-storey townhouse's fresh and uplifting interiors. Once a former olive mill, the house has been carefully converted with light-filled rooms throughout, thanks to Juliet balconies and terraces galore. Each bedroom and ensuite sits on a separate floor, so there's plenty of space to spill out. And when it's time to get together and soak up the sunshine, you can't go wrong with an afternoon lolling about the shared pool and terraces surrounded by fragrant citrus trees and magenta bougainvillaea.

Nice to haves

Found in arguably one of the Algarve’s most charming coastal towns, Tavira, the setting for this sleek townhouse is hard to beat. Spend your days ambling through the historic Moorish streets surrounding the home – a sunny square dotted with cafes is waiting for you. And when the sea air calls, just hop on the ferry weaving down the Gilão River to the unspoilt, golden shores of Ilha de Tavira – trips to the beach don’t get much more scenic than this.

Back home, the interiors of this three-storey townhouse are as polished and contemporary as they come. So, it's a surprise to hear that this building started as a humble olive mill. Pay homage to the home’s past with a Mediterranean feast around that light-filled dining area – the nearby daily food market will deliver all the goods, including lashings of olive oil for salad plates. Then the rest of the day is yours to hang out beside the shared pool terraces. Surrounded by tumbling bougainvillaea and fragrant citrus trees, it’s a fine place to spend the day. And when it’s finally time to lay your heads, each bedroom with ensuite is set out on a separate floor, so you can all spill out with a little extra space and privacy here. 

Rich Pickings

Being a former olive mill, you would be forgiven for expecting something rustic, but as you step through the front door you’ll see it’s anything but. The first thing you’ll walk through is the courtyard, its bright bougainvillea and lap pool becoming your own oasis in the heart of the city. Take a step into the building and remind yourself this was once a working building – we know you’ll be blown away by the sheer size of the building, and how this allows for ample space and light. Its charming design, equal parts quirky and stylish, is bound to bring a smile to your face.

If you can drag yourself away, you’ll find a charming city replete with cobbled streets and radiant gardens. Go out in search of the perfect pastel de nata, or find a hole in the wall for a lovely glass of port.

Stripped-back and functional, this Tavria apartment provides a no-fuss stay on the eastern Algarve. After a night of blissful sleep, put together a light breakfast at the compact kitchenette then take your plates outside to the balcony and dine in the sunshine. If you’d like to take a break from the heat, make a beeline for the communal pool and cool off with a gentle swim. 

When you’re ready to explore, take the short drive into the heart of town for the medieval castle and fantastic range of restaurants, bars and cafes. Of course, no trip to Portugal's southern coast would be complete without a day spent at the beach, so grab your seaside essentials and make haste to the golden sands of Praia da Ilha de Tavira.

On top of that, you've got access to a private swimming pool and a large rooftop terrace, so you can soak up your stunning surroundings over an alfresco lunch in the shade. 

Adopt the pace of nature and slowly make your way down to the pool for a few morning lengths, before roaming the well-tended gardens with a fresh cup of coffee. The villa makes for seamless indoor-outdoor living, with a comfy lounge area and sleek bi-folding doors that invite the warm weather inside. Flopping down on the sofa for a bit of respite, you'll feel a calmness wash over you, as the gentle breeze continues on through. The decor is vibrant, the kitchen has everything you need to rustle up dinner, and all four bedrooms are just as colourful, making the place perfect for families. 

When it comes to seeing a little more of the area, you'll be able to catch a ferry, just twenty minutes' walk away, over to beach island where the golden sands and turquoise waters of Praia de Cabana await. Later, if you're feeling peckish, there's an array of seafood restaurants on your route home. 

In The Clearing

Providing a powerful juxtaposition with its lush, green surroundings, this distinct white villa combines luxury with relaxation to bring you a little slice of serenity on the Algarve.

Take a step inside and you'll find an open space, perfect for entertaining guests or spending precious time with loved ones. You’ll also want to take full advantage of the home’s lounge and dining area that unfolds onto a balcony. Sink into the rattan furniture and enjoy breakfast while taking in stunning town and sea views.

Enjoy Portugal’s lovely weather and take a dip in the large swimming pool, surrounded by pretty calçada paving stones and sunbeds, before heading upstairs to enjoy a cocktail at the bar. The poolside seating area is perfect for lounging in the sun, while the terraces and al-fresco dining tables are perfect for enjoying meals with family and friends.

For those who have an intrepid streak, the villa is just a short walk from Tavira and the boat to the beach. But with a place as comfortable as this, we wouldn’t blame you if you didn’t want to leave.

Situated in the pretty town of Tavria, this boho-chic apartment is a place to bliss out after long days spent exploring the Algarve. The combination of natural textures and neutral tones makes you feel at ease as soon as you step foot into the home. Find the comfiest spot on the sofa with an espresso or take advantage of the warm sunshine and take a seat on the balcony. When hunger strikes, try your hand at recreating Portuguese classics in the well-appointed kitchen. 

Spend afternoons dipping in and out of the communal pool before catching the ferry to Ilha de Tavira for endless golden sands and the turquoise Atlantic Ocean. In the early evening, slowly make your way back into town – stop for a seafood stew in a traditional restaurant then end the day with a nightcap in a laid-back bar. 

 Uma Casa Portuguesa

Nestled in a dreamy resort on the outskirts of Tavira, this Portuguese townhouse has everything you need for a relaxing summer getaway with friends or family. Start your day on the roof terrace where you’ll be greeted by gorgeous views of the communal pool, then head downstairs for a day of swimming and sunbathing in the resort’s private gardens. 

Whether you’re here on a long weekend or planning a more extended stay, there’s plenty to keep you occupied nearby, from the labyrinthine streets of the town centre to the soft sands of Tavira Beach Island, a short ferry ride from home. Stretch your legs with a relaxing stroll along the Gilão River or stay put and beat the heat with a midday snooze in your air-conditioned sleeping quarters. 

The décor here might not be anything to write home about but what this place lacks in showstopping design features, it more than makes up for in home comforts. Rustle up a hearty meal in the fully equipped kitchen, kick back and relax on the poolside patio, or snuggle up on the sofa and lose yourself in a good book. What's not to love?

This beautiful villa, tucked away in the Portugeuse countryside, offers plenty of space for relaxaction but it's not so secluded that it will rob you of experiencing some of the finest beaches and sights, all just a quick drive away. 

Step inside to find bright interiors, exposed beams, and a homely atmosphere that'll make you feel at ease from the moment you arrive. Though some standout features include the vaulted ceilings in the living room, the games room, and your private cinema, the outdoor area is the true hero. Imagine relaxing under one of the daffodil-yellow patio umbrellas as you soak up every last bit of sun before cooling down in the private pool. 

The pool house offers another space in which to get comfortable with a glass of wine, but it's also where you’ll find the outdoor kitchen and pizza oven. Put your dough skills to the test, baking your creations before enjoying it alfresco with an ice-cold beer.

With special views overlooking the sun-soaked horizon, this is a home where you'll spend your downtime sipping wine with your loved ones and soaking in the hot tub. We especially love the outdoor kitchen here – what could be more perfect than dining alfresco after making memories to last a lifetime?

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.

Sunset Terracotta

Paid Parking On Street

You’ll find this eighteenth-century Pombaline residence standing proud along the water’s edge of the charming fishing town of Vila Real de Santo António in the Algarve.

With its impossible-to-miss red façade, lofty frescoed ceilings, and mosaic-tiled floors, this is the Portuguese retreat you have dreamed about. But we doubt you’d imagined an achingly cool shared swimming pool high on the rooftop with breathtaking views of the mighty Guadiana River. Neither did we.

Back downstairs in the apartment, while the historic splendour remains, mid-century-inspired wooden furniture dials down the ornate features beautifully –⁠ and a luxurious bathroom and smart kitchen bring everything firmly into the twenty-first century. 

Sunny days call for coffees and breakfast on the shady outdoor terrace before an early morning dip in the pool to awaken the senses. 

Should you ever be tempted to stray from the suntrap roof terrace, the vast sands of Praia de Santo António are just an eleven-minute drive away. And when thoughts turn to food, you’ll find plenty of restaurants and bars serving up tasty seafood plates and a glass of something chilled just steps away along the harbourfront.

Tide Down 

Outdoor Pool

With a wonderful location near the Vila Real de Santo António waterfront, this stylish one-bedroom apartment offers a sleek base from which to discover the Algarve coast. The minimal living space is defined by a statement waved wall – making this pad feel vibrant in the best way. And with a comfortable interior, a rooftop terrace and a shared pool, we think this pad would be ideal for a solo traveller or a couple. With the marina’s restaurants and promenade a short walk away and the Marshland Nature Reserve of Castro Marim a short drive, it’s effortless to make the most of your location.

Real Blush

Balcony / Patio

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.

Private Parking

Design lovers will appreciate the natural harmony of this home. From the locally sourced furnishings to the eco-friendly features and calm aesthetic, every detail has been considered to inspire optimum relaxation. Outside, you can enjoy beautiful views while lounging on the roof terrace. There is also a swimming pool and the outdoor courtyard lends itself perfectly to alfresco dining. You might find it hard to leave this private sanctuary, but it’s just a short drive to Santa Bárbara de Nexe, while Faro is just twenty minutes away. 

The Sunset Muse

Vacuum Cleaner

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

Secured Parking

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. 

Enter to be greeted by a large open-plan living room and kitchen area, with plenty of room to kick back and relax after a long beach day. 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 

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.

Natural Treasures

In the pleasant market town of Loulé, this apartment is ideal for a family seeking an authentic Algarve escape. The patio was the first thing that caught our eye – with its barbecue, it's perfect for alfresco meals in the shade. Talking of eating, there's also the well-equipped kitchen, and there's plenty of eateries within walking distance too. At capacity, two guests will be using the living area's sofa bed, so space might be a little tight. Luckily, Loulé offers plenty of reasons to be out exploring, and you can take a bus directly to the coast in less than an hour.

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.

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.

This spacious villa on the Algarve coast was designed with families in mind. For kids, there’s a playpark in the garden and a swimming pool for cooling off. While adults can indulge in a spa session thanks to the indoor Jacuzzi tub, gym and sauna. There’s oodles of space inside, from the glitzy main lounge and banquet-sized dining room to tucked-away family snugs. Within the area, there are several golf courses and the beachy town of Quarteira is a short hop away in the car.

Vibrant Radiant

Pets Allowed

Pets

Ideally located in Albufeira, this villa is perfect for families. It’s just 1 kilometre from the soft sand of Praia da Faleisa and 800 metres from Pine Cliffs golf course, so there’s something for everyone. Kids will love splashing about in the private pool, while grown-ups can look forward to sipping drinks on the terrace. It’s worth noting that two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room, where privacy is limited, and that some of the decor is a touch dated. 

Summer in Algarve

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.

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.

Aqua Reflections

Nestled in the historical heart of Tavira, this white-washed home is perfectly placed in the city – only a short stroll away from artisan shops and restaurants. If you fancy sunbathing atop golden sands, why not hop on a ferry boat and sail down the Gilão River to the Praia da Ilha de Tavira? Alternatively, history lovers may wish to tour the Santa María do Castelo Church, which houses the tombs of seven slain knights.

Centring around its outside space, this homely townhouse invites you to rustle up barbecue lunches on the patio. Carry your cup of meia-de-leite out to the sun loungers and make plans beneath blue skies. We think dipping your toes in this hot tub is ideal at any hour of the day, but maybe the reward will be sweeter after working hard at the lamplit desk. Under the pergola, gather your family at the coffee table while you all raise your glasses to a happy holiday.

Heart of Hearts

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

Parking On Premises

Nestled in a little town called Amorosa, this sage green villa is decorated in modern Portuguese style and is bursting with charm. Wooden floors and exposed brickwork characterise the open living space, and the chic sitting room flows through into the modern kitchen. Vast windows and sliding glass doors bathe the rooms in natural light. Start the day with a refreshing dip in the salt-water pool before enjoying breakfast together. The bedrooms are elegant and comfortable, and all of them are on the ground floor with en-suites.  

The villa is across the road from a small supermarket, making it easy to go on food and drink runs. At lunch, make use of the outdoor barbecue and dine alfresco at the sun-dappled table. For a day by the sea, drive twenty-five-minutes to the Algarve Coast, where you can relax on beautiful sandy beaches or practice a variety of watersports. Come evening, head to one of the little bars in Amorosa to drink beer with the locals before coming home for dinner. 

Villa Sabia

Within driving distance of several exquisite beaches, this resort apartment is calling all sun lovers to its doors. But the proximity to Praia de Vilamoura and other sandy shores isn't the only great thing about this family pad. The shared swimming pool will keep little ones happy for hours, and there's also a communal gym and plenty of outdoor seating. The apartment itself has a balcony where you can enjoy alfresco meals together. Two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living space. We can see it being best for kids, but there's enough room for it to work for a couple, too.
