Villa vacation rentals in Barão de São João

Very cosy cottage like feel, we had a great 4 night stay. 2 adults + baby. Plenty of room upstairs. Outdoor space was great, beautiful views across the hills and very peaceful street so no noise while we were there. Nearby campsite is a 5-10 mins walk from the house, handy for using the restaurant/shop there or takeaway pizzas :) Easy access to local beaches and bigger towns (like Lagos) by car. Supermarkets and restaurants nearby too. Everything you need in the house if you want to make lunch, dinner, etc. Recommend!

We have stayed last year and everything was great then . My feedback last year was that the beach towels were small however they have acted on the feedback and plenty of large beach towels are supplied . Clean and private spacious villa in a lovely setting . Walk to Porto de mos beach but be aware that Antonio’s restaurant is shut on Mondays .

great place with very private pool area. The view from upstairs is amazing!

If you're looking for a place to stay near Praia da Arrifana, book Lyn's beautiful home - you won't regret it! We were there during a major storm, and even with poor weather we had an absolutely wonderful time. The house is very spacious and comfortably decorated, with an extremely well-equipped kitchen for cooking (a huge plus for us). The house is walking distance from the beach and the Rota Vicentina hiking trails, and there's a good supermarket just a few minutes away by car. Lyn and Mariana were very easy to communicate with and helpful...we'd love to go back some time!

Returning to this luxury property feels like coming home. The hosts and Laura, go above and beyond to ensure each stay surpasses the last. Their attention to detail, proactive communication, and warm hospitality make every visit exceptional. I'm grateful for the consistency and quality of care they provide and look forward to many more stays. Highly recommended for those seeking a truly attentive and luxurious experience. Thanks again for another perfect visit!

We had such a wonderful week at Villa Ocean Dreams! Giuliana’s home was even more beautiful and spacious than the photos! The location was fantastic with the beach so close and the boardwalk to walk into the marina or town right across the street. The pool and hot tub made our week even better. We spent much of our time in the comfortable gathering areas by the pool, under the shade and awnings upstairs and downstairs, or playing games in the evening at the dining table. All of the beds were very comfortable and the air conditioning was perfect. The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals for our group of five and was so well stocked with cooking utensils and appliances. Giuliana was so helpful and welcoming, making us feel right at home.

Amazing location and well appointed accommodation. Very helpful hosts - we were able to check in early and lost our keys on day one and they came to the rescue immediately. Loved the outdoor area and proximity to the beach and town with some lovely restaurants. Would love to go back !

We loved our stay here in Sagres! The views were amazing, the heated pool was a nice touch, and comfortable beds for everyone! We had 2 families totaling 11 and we had plenty of room. The walk to the beach was only 5 minutes and it was gorgeous. The jasmine in the backyard was a favorite for us all! We would definitely come back. Thanks for a great stay!

The place to stay was really nice and the location was perfect. Unfortunately, it got quite windy by the pool in the afternoon. The people working there explained everything to us in really good English and they were very polite. I would definitely recommend it.

We booked Filips place quite last minute but he was very responsive and helpful so everything went well finding the house. Upon arrival he greeted us, showed us around and kept being very responsive during our stay. We enjoyed the beautiful house and it's quiet location very much and would happily book the house again should we decide to travel to Algarve again.

Beautiful house 5 min drive to a beautiful beach. The pool is heated but we enjoyed the Jacuzzi and normal fireplace more in November. We were able to eat outside at lunchtime. The environment is very quiet and the house is spacious and very well-equipped. Thanks again to Izabel and Taylor for their hosting, welcome gift and great availability.

amazing villa. had such a great 5 days here. villa is stunning and hosts were excellent. swimming pool was a lovely temperature and villa was exactly as described. we would love to stay there again! only slight negative was it was very hot and although there was no air conditioning.(which we were aware of) the fans in the bedrooms could be a bit better!

Possibly the best Airbnb I ever stayed at. Great layout with outdoor kitchen pool and an amazing view. Very clean and very friendly and proactive hosts. Thank you!

We had a few days here and it was amazing, felt at home from the minute we walked in, we was with our 2 boys (13 & 10) and they had so much fun here as well as space for themselves when it was needed. The villa had everything, was exactly like the photos and is a great place to stay - you will need a car to get anywhere the nearest town was about 10-15 min away. Will definitely go back if we get the chance again. Loved it!! Thank you ❤️❤️

Ana’s home is beautiful inside and out!! The house sits on a large, private and gated lot. The land is full of beautiful trees that provide serenity and privacy. With lots of glass and lots of patio space, the home is a beautiful place to relax inside and out. And then there’s the outdoor showers which are amazing! The house is truly 5/5. Ana is extremely helpful as well. She’s very responsive and helpful. I highly recommend staying at Ana’s home if you can.

This amazing place deserves at least 11 out of 10 for everything. Pedro had thought of everything for a perfect family holiday. We were a party of 10 from grandparents to the youngest grandchild age 3. There were 5 bedrooms on 2 floors - 2 doubles and 3 twin rooms. All immaculate and comfortable. Plus a rooftop terrace with fabulous sunset views. Plus 2 modern bathrooms on each floor. The kids loved the pool and I'd really recommend paying the extra for pool heating as it kept the children happily splashing around for hours. The fantastic beach is just a few minutes walk down the road and we all loved it. Just to note that access to the pool was either through the ground floor double bedroom or down steps from the kitchen patio upstairs, and there's no toilet outside although there's a lovely hot shower outside at the side of the house as well as a cold one next to the pool. I can't thank Pedro enough for a family holiday of a lifetime and many happy memories!

Beautiful house and surroundings. We arrived late at night, by car from Faro airport, approx 1 hour drive. Found it easily and checking in to the property was straightforward. Very spacious for our family of four with teenagers, plenty of inside and outside areas to be together or to find your own space. Very clean and modern, with lovely garden and terraces. The property is quite high with beautiful views, not overlooked. It is very cleverly designed so that you can sit in the sun or shade and if breezy you can still find sheltered spots. Kitchen very well equipped, and we used the BBQ. Pool is lovely and was heated by arrangement. Pool has steps at one end then gets deep quite quickly so may not suit small children, but perfect for us. Plenty of beach choices, supermarket, fuel and restaurants just a short drive. You do need a car. The house is on a golf course with other similar properties nearby but it was very quiet with lots of space and felt very private. We loved it!

Kingdomar’s place was perfect. Our family of 4 stayed stayed with another family of 3 and we had plenty of space. The location couldn’t be better, right next to the beach and restaurants. The house was very clean and stocked with all the essentials. We would highly recommended the place.

Olhos De Agua is situated at one end of the Falesia beach a beautiful 6km walk from Villamoura. The villa is very close to a supermarket, local beaches and lots of great cafes and restaurants. It's less than 10 mins into Albufeira too. The villa is very spacious, the rooms are large, the beds are comfortable and clean. Getting around is easy by bus or Uber. Carlos was very attentive, he allowed us in early and out late. We had one problen which he was unable to fix with the air con upstairs. If you are large group and want a spacious villa with your own pool and a pool table and table tennis this is a great option. There is a building site over the road, thet were bricking when we were there so it wasn't very noisy

We had a really nice time at this Airbnb. The place was just as advertised—clean, comfortable, and in a great location. The beach was stunning and only a short walk away, which was perfect. The heated pool was a nice bonus, especially with a 6-year-old, and the whole property was well-kept. The area was quiet and peaceful, just what we were looking for. The host was responsive and helpful whenever we had questions. Everything went smoothly, and we’d happily stay here again. A solid choice for a relaxing getaway! A few tips, the best food in Lagos is Tasca do Kiko, also there is a cafe called Everyday People cafe, perfect for breakfast.

Excellent villa with an excellent host! would use the villa and Kinga again in the future. Thank you Kinga for the warm welcome and the unexpected welcome pack with groceries. Very easy to communicate with when needed! Thank you again. The Stewart

Casa Mu is a beautiful home with zen like qualities and an expansive view. We were staying at the house during the black out. Matthijs reached out to us while the cell towers were still live and came by to open the gates manually so we could get back to the house. Yannick stopped by later in the day to give us updates. The home has a Big Green egg and we had bought charcoal the day we arrived so we were able to cook dinner. Thankfully power was down for only a short time. Casa Mu has one of the best equipped kitchens I’ve ever seen in a rental. We bought oranges and limes from a roadside stand and made fresh juice using the electric juicer. Beds are super comfortable and bathrooms well equipped. I would suggest bringing bar soap for the shower. There were 7 of us and we had plenty of room to hang out both inside and outside the house. The pool is not heated, but I did go in. A bit bracing, but not too cold. For food shopping, go to Apolonia in Lagoa. Great store that has all you need

Beautiful setting and so peaceful. We stayed for 2 weeks in June 2025, the location is high up the mountain so can be cool in the mornings and evenings. However we loved having an open fire in the evenings and James provided all the wood we needed. James was quick to respond when called upon. We loved the space this property gave us and grew to love its quirky design layout. We would certainly recommend James and “villa de Cima” one thing we would advise is having the pool heated. Thanks James

We had a wonderful stay! What impressed us most was the spectacular view, the generous architecture and spacious layout of the house – everything is beautifully designed and thoughtfully arranged. We felt completely at ease and truly enjoyed every moment. We would love to come back – thank you for everything!
