Quinta da Donalda

Ochre walls and green gardens make this typical Portuguese mansion a vibrant retreat. Its verdant grounds, tiled rooms, and 7 bedrooms, including 2 in 2 guest houses, are a welcoming place to host a family reunion in the Algarve. While there are plenty of beaches near the villa in the Portimão area, it’s also a short drive to the old town and beaches of Lagos. With a rural setting amid farmland and gardens planted with fruit trees and flowering vines, the villa feels like your own private country estate. Savor the quiet and the sunshine from a lounger by the outdoor swimming pool and linger beneath a palm tree at the alfresco dining table. Your holiday includes daily breakfast, and a housekeeper will make sure you’re comfortable. The living areas at this vacation rental are spread out between a main house and 2 guest houses, but all feature a mix of refined modern pieces and colorful prints. Look for details like mustard-yellow tile around the fireplace, sea-blue cushions on the dining chairs, and brilliant tile on the floor of the fully equipped kitchen. Each guest house also has its own kitchenette. Drive less than 20 kilometers from the villa to 3 different beaches, including the Alvor boardwalk and the top-ranked Praia de Marinha Beach. Head for the nearby port city of Lagos to explore cobblestone streets running beneath 16th-century walls and pause at one of its lively restaurants. Copyright © Luxury Retreats. All rights reserved.

Villa Mar Azul

Incredible views stretch out before Vila Mar Azul. As its name, which translates to “blue sea,” suggests, this sleek vacation rental boasts an oceanfront location and the panoramas to match. Use this clifftop retreat as a luxury hideaway in the Algarve, or as a base for a laid-back family holiday in the charming beach town of Salema. The villa’s three levels of living space make the most of its stunning location—and open to outdoor areas where you can soak in the sun. A sparkling pool, loungers, barbecue and al-fresco dining for eight let you entertain or relax from dawn to dusk. After dark, watch the stars come out or step inside to enjoy the satellite TV and Wi-Fi. Vila Mar Azul has one open-plan living area on its main floor, with living and dining areas and a fully equipped kitchen, and a second on its lower level, complete with a second kitchen. A fireplace and plush area rug create a cozy ambience in the main-floor living area; a few steps up, cantilevered chairs add modern style around the dining table. The villa is a short walk from the town of Salema—once a fishing village known for its octopus, now a popular spot for its golden stretch of beach. Slow down to its pace, and you’ll be rewarded with the sight of fishermen hauling in their catch or an afternoon at one of its waterfront restaurants. Golf courses, tennis courts and a spa are a short drive away at Santo Antonio Resort; for more shopping and dining options, drive into Lagos. Copyright © Luxury Retreats. All rights reserved.

All about Portugal

Planning your vacation in Portugal

Portugal is a heady combination of exciting cities, sunny beaches, and people with a passion for cuisine and culture. Plan your vacation around historic castles, delicious wine tastings, and maybe even a pop culture hunt (Spoiler: Harry Potter fans will need to visit a certain bookstore), and top it all off with a stay at a luxurious private villa. From Lisbon to the Algarve, there’s so much to explore and plenty of glasses of Port to enjoy from the lookout of an ancient palace. Needless to say, you’ll want to touch down immediately.

A magical visit

If the rumors are true, J.K. Rowling wrote the first Harry Potter book while living and teaching in Porto, and found inspiration for many of its details in Portugal. One of her favorite writing locales was Lello & Irmão Bookstore, one of the finest libraries in the world and a building with many design similarities to Rowling’s description of Hogwarts. You can visit today and you’ll notice the library’s red staircase closely resembles the one described at Hogwarts. Furthering her connection with the country, Rowling went as far as to name a character in her series, Salazar Slytherin, after a former Portuguese dictator, António de Oliveira Salazar.

Explore the homeland of Port

A trip to Portugal wouldn’t be complete without sampling some sweet Port wine. You’ve surely already heard of and tasted of Portugal’s famous beverage, but you may not have ever come this close to the real thing. Produced exclusively in the Douro Valley, one of the oldest wine regions in the world, Port wine is rich, sweet, heavy, and traditionally served with cheese after a meal. Taking a slow river cruise down the Douro is a wonderful way to see the river and visit the vineyards that produce the famous vino.

Hilltop day trip

The hilltop town of Sintra is an easy day adventure from Portugal’s capital, Lisbon. Sintra is worth a visit for its ancient architectural masterpieces and their verdant views. Pena National Palace is perched so high up on the hill that it can be seen from Lisbon, and you’ll recognize that domed golden tower and red brick chapel steeple from anywhere. Still, it’s better to get up close to enjoy the palace’s vivid colors, hidden pathways, and astonishing vistas. The Moorish Castle, built in the 8th century when the Iberian peninsula was under Moorish rule, should be near the top of your list for its sheer historical significance. Originally a watchtower overlooking Lisbon, until as recently as 2010 it also housed a prison. After climbing the castle, visitors can head underground at the Quinta da Regaleira estate. The so-called Initiation Well is 27 meters deep and is lined with a spiral staircase for you to walk down. Resembling an inverted tower, and connected to a series of tunnels that run under the estate, the well is eerily fascinating.

End of the world

If you could visit the end of the world, would you? In the Algarve region, just 23 miles from Lagos, there’s a place that must be visited for the view alone - and requires you bring your camera with you. Once considered the “end of the world,” Portugal’s southwest tip at Cape St. Vincent is now referred to as Sagres Point. The lighthouse here is a world-famous sunset viewpoint. When you look over the cliff edge out onto the seemingly endless waters, you can easily understand why the explorers of old believe this to be the edge of the earth.

Private Villas in Portugal

Renting a private villa in Portugal is the perfect starting point for a vacation full of wine tastings, culinary tours, and exploring the country’s historic castles, cathedrals, and museums.
