Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Altura

Just loved Sandra’s place. So peaceful and we felt right at home among the lemon trees. The bed was comfortable and the cooking facilities were perfect. You can walk to the little supermarket in about 10 minutes down a track which was perfect to collect fresh bread in the morning and give our little dog a walk off lead. Sandra and Miguel were always responsive to any questions we had. Tavira is about an 8 minute drive away and there’s a large free car park just over the bridge. It’s worth visiting Santa Luzia too which is about 18 minutes by car and also there’s lovely beaches in the opposite direction. The Quinta has a soul if its own - so enjoyed my morning yoga practise. A wonderful place to stay. ❤️❤️

We enjoyed a very relaxing and easy 7 days at Marie's house. The place is stunning, even more so than the pictures, and the effort that has gone into maintaining it is evident. Marie was always responsive when we had any questions either about the house or the local area, and waited to meet us after our late night flight, so we wouldn't miss the turning for the house. Getting into Tavira is super easy, the only consideration is that the driveway of the house is long and very bumpy. You don't need a 4x4 or anything, but it was a bit of a surprise the first time we got there! Would very much recommend this place and the local area. Merci, Marie!

Such a nice house and nice surroundings with oranges around the corner! Perfect house for us, who were there as a larger group. Nice rooms and perfect with larger social areas where everyone could hang out and the kids play. Extra plus for the order in the kitchen and an incredibly helpful and accommodating host!

We had a great stay with my parents. The garden is very beautiful. The main house is very spacious and is very well equipped. We have young children and they loved all of the toys available.

Uta's place is magical. Set up high, it overlooks a small village to the south and the sprawling sera to the north. The surroundings are peaceful, away from the tourist bustle of coast. The casa itself is beautifully appointed. All of the practical things are just as they should be (great dinnerware; comfy beds; plenty of sitting areas) and, beyond this, the place is aesthetically joyous. Plenty of art and other thoughtful touches, carefully curated, that make it so inviting. Surrounding the casa are small pathways walled with verdant plant life. The whole place is clearly a labour of love. Uta is a responsive and thoughtful host. We liked it here so much we immediately booked for a longer stay next year. One of the very best places we've ever found on Airbnb.

Great place to stay. Great host giving us lots of useful tips. Very friendly, exactly as described. Good location for accessing beaches, towns and countryside. a Although you do have to drive everywhere. Would go back tomorrow!!

Superb location, great facilities, amazing pool, wonderful place to stay for families. The hosts were so friendly and helpful and accommodating. We would love to return.

We had a great time at Derek's beautiful house! If you are looking for peace and want to enjoy Portuguese life, this is the place to be. The house is beautifully renovated, comfortably furnished, superbly equipped and was absolutely clean. It is also special that we already found water, wine, coffee, fruit, shower gel and much more in the house. Derek welcomed us in a very friendly way, was always available and took care of everything. The terrace with the hot tub is a dream and the location of the house in the small, beautiful Santa Catarina da Fonte do Bispo is also great. From here you can quickly get to Tavira, Olhão, Fuseta or Faro and the beaches of the Sandalgarve. Thanks for the great time, Derek! We felt very comfortable :)

This was a special and charming place to stay! Very spacious and centrally located with ample air conditioning. We really appreciated Ana's flexibility with letting us leave our bags early. We would definitely try to stay here again if we are in Tavira next time!

Perfect location walkable to many restaurants and shops! Rental had lots of space for our large family and was exactly as described. Would stay here again!

The place was great and a perfect location! Jonathan was super responsive and even arranged airport transportation for us which was very helpful!

We had a very nice week as a family of three in Casa Regina, Apartment 2. We were able to sit comfortably on the large terrace. The kitchen was equipped with everything you need. We were able to use the pool and garden nicely. Washing machine great. Andrew and his mother Lurdes were very responsive and communicative. In case of problems with the shower, they responded quickly and there were cookies and wine as a small compensation. When booking, Andrew also points out that it is a quiet residential unit. It is actually important to consider this, as the apartments are quite close to each other. Apartment 3 adjoins the large bedroom and, depending on the neighbors, it can also be a bit noisy. You can also always hear the street, but at night it is relatively quiet and also at the pool it is idyllic. It should also be mentioned that the entrance from apartment 1 leads to the terrace of apartment 2. We had very nice neighbors, so it wasn't disturbing for us.

In our travels through Portugal, this was absolutely the best place we stayed. Marcio’s place is very spacious, very clean, and has the feeling of being in a real home. There is a large outdoor patio where we enjoyed hanging out. And even though we were in a central location, the apartment was peaceful and quiet. Marcio was very easy to communicate with, and even when we locked ourselves out of the apartment, he was extremely kind and helpful. I can’t recommend this place enough. It was fabulous!!

Excellent place full of attention from Manuel. Extremely convenient with lots of useful things. Perfect communication! I recommend closing my eyes

Very nice, clean, well-equipped apartment in the heart of Faro, close to the bus and train stations. Shops nearby and old town within walking distance.

The hosts were very friendly and helpful. The apartment has everything you need and is very close to bars and the beach.

We had a brilliant 9-day stay at Tamsin’s house. The villa couldn’t have been better situated, being a 2-min walk from town and within easy reach of local towns / beaches and shops. The house itself was large and well equipped, with a big swimming pool and living area. We travelled with 2 young children and the house was perfect, with stair-gates, toys and a comfortable travel cot and high chair. Tamsin was also very responsive snd accommodated an early check in and late departure. We would highly recommend.

Amazing experience in this villa. The Host was exceptional always there to respond and take care of things and it shows that he cares about the place. I would recommend this to anyone. Place was clean and cozy. In a very private development. If I ever get a chance will book it again. I already forwarded to few friends in London to have that experience. Thanks Mr Helder. Keep up your good work .

Madalena was a fabulous host, really friendly and always a quick response to my messages.. a stunning location, the photos really don't do it justice. We stayed for 4 nights, enjoying walking to nearby Loule. A supermarket just 5 mins walk away and a cafe. Would not hesitate to go back, thank you so much Madalena

Great value spot in the algarve. Awesome Location and brilliant property. Would recommend to anyone, particularly large groups

Micky and Silvia came across as a lovely couple and very friendly we had a little problem with my sister locking herself out of one of the apartments Micky acame over and sorted it immediately thank you again. The Villa is a fabulous place very peaceful very modern but it needs a few little tweaks like better pillows more cups the sofa beds in the studio apartments are uncomfortable. We took the whole family 11 of us in total. A great week

Very peaceful, clean villa with great pool and things for young children to play with. Car is essential to access local amenities. Host Carmen very informative and friendly.

We stayed at Rich & Yan’s place on our family holiday with our 2 year old and it was just perfect for us. It was lovely to have a big patio area outside too within easy reach of the pool (which we used every day!). Everything had been thought of, from children’s books, welcome food and drink, highchair, travel cot etc to the supply of shampoo/ conditioner/ body wash in each bathroom. We loved the clean, homely feel of the place without it feeling too cluttered. The location was perfect for us, allowing us some peace and quiet when we needed but within a 10/15 minute drive of everywhere we needed to be including beautiful beaches and restaurants. The hosts Rich & Yan were very responsive and provided plenty of recommendations and detailed check-in instructions. We’d definitely recommend this place to anyone with a young family!

Wow! What an amazing place to stay! We couldn't believe how beautiful this place is. House, garden, pool, the view over the mountains and the quiteness where absolut fantastic. 25 minutes by car to Faro beach just by to the airport. We would definitely come back. Our little kids loved the place as well.
