Cottage rentals with a hot tub

Sunset Cottage, hot tub, above ground pool.Private
Claire’s home is cozy and comfortable, with everything you need to make you feel at home. The garden is absolutely amazing, a little corner of paradise. We also enjoyed the little bar and shop that is only 3 minutes walk from the house. The closest beach is only 8 minutes drive, Lagos 25 minuets, etc. We recommend parking the car down the street as it’s not so easy to drive in and out if you don’t have experience with driving on narrow streets that go up and down :p.

Rogil's House - Secret Beach Paradise!
Nice place with an insanely beautiful beach nearby. House is nice with lots of places around the house to always sit in the sun or shade. Also nice that the space around the house is shielded with vegetation and a fence ( due to small kids). House felt very clean and thoughtfully decorated. Nice arrival with lights on and a drink in the refrigerator, plenty of towels and nice smell and soap everywhere, etc. Wonderful stay in the hammock and porch porch. but the breathtaking beach so close to the house was really the best.

Beautiful Quinta in an exceptional setting
Casa May is an idyllic place . The house is set in a beautiful garden which merges into the surrounding bush. Set about a kilometre from the main road , it epitomises peace and quiet.

Luxurious villa l Unique view l Jacuzzi
Beautiful house! Very clean and stylishly decorated! We had an great week and felt very comfortable. The house is located just outside Silves surrounded by nature. We will be happy to come back!

Villa la Perla Holiday home with private pool
What a wonderful location and a beautiful stay! The view from the gazebo was magnificent, the interior of the villa was beautiful and well decorated, and the pool was definitely everyone's favorite feature! The walk to town was not far, and the views alone the way alongside the cliffs were breathtaking. The home and surrounding area provides something for every taste and age, and the beauty of the area is what makes Portugal so amazing. This place has a special magic you must see for yourself!

CASA DA PEDRA - Farm house- Tavira
Everything was wonderful, the estate is great with its views, orange, everything, the little house had everything and they brought us to a great barbecue, Ana and her mother were wonderful, we really liked it, and the dog of the estate was great, and the dog of the estate was coming to visit us every afternoon, just to thank them for everything, we hope to return soon

Spacecraft
Rented for 3 months while I moved from the UK to Monchique. Ze was very helpful and responsive when I had a couple of problems during the stay. Ze had things all sorted for me within a very short space of time.

Maria's House • Natural Côte • Aljezur
This home is a beautiful farm house in the area - you feel right at home when you arrive and it makes you want to move in. The property is so peaceful, calming and great for kids and outdoor meals. The location is wonderful and right in the middle of all of the beaches in the area. The hosts are incredibly helpful and communicative (the best communication I've encountered with an airbnb) - always there to respond to you if you have questions and help with anything that comes up. The house is also incredibly well equipped for multiple guests and a longer stay - the photos don't reveal just how many dishes, pots and pans, and other supplies the home has. As well, the windows have screens which is a HUGE plus that many airbnbs in the area do not have. If you are there in cooler or wetter weather, the house does get a little bit damp if you are sensitive to that but that is pretty common for most places in the area and the hosts have put things in place to help with it.

A casa d' Irene
Maria Irene, we received very well, she is a very pleasant and lively person. Thank you very much for your lovely attention. Your cake is divine, the kids and we parents have eaten everything to the last crumb. The wine was also very good. Thanks again

Lavender cottage in tranquil Spa Gardens
Judite's place was very charming and had an amazing view. It was very peaceful and had everthing you needed. We didnt rent a car but used Uber, taxis and the local bus to get to neighbouring towns and even a day trip to the little fishing town Alvor. Judite responded quickly to all our queries before and during our trip. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend Lavender cottage.

Quinta das Marias
A really nice place to stay! The pool was perfect for our kids. There were even some games for them. Thanks for the bottles on arrival, it was really a very touching gesture! The landscape is very beautiful! In short, nothing to repeat, it's really a good base for visiting the surrounding towns and beaches while staying away from the city to rest in the evening. The house is cool for the summer and there is heating for the winter. Thanks again for this listing.

Large Villa Near Arrifana, Aljezur,
This was the best house we have stayed in around the Aljezur/Arrifana area. This was our 3rd visit to the area and we stayed at Marta’s on a friends recommendation. There are even peekaboo views of the ocean. The house is non-corporate in every good way. There is an ancient piano in the living room - and it was correctly tuned! There is local art and the furniture is not just ikea cheap stuff. The kitchen was well stocked and clean. The area is great - kind of in between two different beaches. You can drive 3 minutes to a bunch of restaurants or walk 10 minutes to a few others at the roundabout. We did a run in the morning and there’s even a lake about 5 minutes away. All very peaceful, no traffic. We would happily stay here again.

Monte do Roupinha - Rural Villa 1BR
We were warmly welcomed by the host, and by three sweet dogs who walked around the yard there. Beautiful surroundings also and nice place to relax.

Cottage with pool in Faro's countryside
Thank you for a fantastic stay and for all your help and friendliness!

Casinha da Ivone
We went to Aljezur for workation and had a nice time! Internet was excellent. Unfortunately the weather was quite bad, but the fireplace made it comfortable and safed us ;) Jorge was super friendly and always answered quickly when we had questions. In the area we visited very good restaurants, beaches and countryside. Thanks for a nice stay!

Nature&Soul - Moon
We really enjoyed our stay at the “Lua” house. It's a super beautiful place in a wonderful setting. The starry sky is fantastic. Vanessa and Luis are very friendly and helpful hosts.

"Casa das Oliveiras na Quinta da Pintassilga"
Wonderful place between orange and lemon trees. The apartment was beautifully decorated, we had a great time.

Casa do Monte Verde Villa
Our stay at Joana and Jorge’s villa was absolutely wonderful. They are incredibly friendly and welcoming hosts. Their property is stunning, beautifully maintained, and thoughtfully designed. The villa itself is spacious, tastefully decorated, and extremely clean, with everything we could possibly need for a comfortable stay. The surrounding nature is simply breathtaking, offering a peaceful and quiet atmosphere that made our time there even more special. We truly enjoyed every moment and are already looking forward to coming back soon. Highly recommend!

Trivial Pisão - Holiday Home for your Family
Beautiful modern renovation with a stunning garden view. Close to beaches. Highly recommend.

Olhão Rural Tourism House 2/4 pax
Sandra and Fausto were excellent hosts. The cottage was exactly like the pictures, very charming with lots of space both inside and out. We especially loved the great hot showers after a day on the beach! The cottage is very quiet with great sunsets on the terrace. The beach umbrella came in very handy! There are several good grill restaurants close by on the main road. It is under 2 kilometres from Olhão which has several excellent supermarkets and only 25 minutes by car from the airport. And close to some fantastic beaches. This part of the Algarve is so much better than on the other side of Faro. A great 10 days in a lovely place with super hosts.

Casa de Campo near Cacela Velha
My family and I had a wonderful stay. The area is peaceful as it is located in an orange farm between golf courses, so you feel completely removed from the hustle and bustle, but in 5 mins driving distance to shops and restaurants. We made use of the BBQ and the kids loved the farm dogs and pool, although it was still a little cold for them as it was early in the year. We had a wonderful and relaxing stay and Maria was quick to respond when I was not able to find the hairdryer the first night, and was more than generous with our check out as well. She sent clear instructions for driving there and the key was available in the door on arrival. There is another villa next door which was empty during our stay, but would be ideal if two families were coming on holiday together. Ironically we had friends staying in Tavira at the time and said next time we should book the place together. You will need a car to stay here due to the location. The kids are already asking if they can come back!
