Waterfront vacation rentals in Eastern Algarve

We had a fantastic stay at Nuno’s lovely apartment. It is right on the beach but super quiet and really spacious. Nuno met us at the apartment and was so helpful. We loved our stay and can’t wait to come back!

Perfect location for a stroll to anywhere in a city center. Car park inside the property behind locked gate is an exellent feature. Strong recommendation if you want to spend laidback and easy holiday at city of Faro.

It was a very nice time in the little oasis. Everything you need for a great vacation is there. The view over the sea is fantastic and you can dream and forget all your worries....

We had a great time. We had a welcoming and smiling host. The instructions were very clear, the apartment very clean and the neighborhood close to the sea. The only downside is the noise of the work during the day but nothing repulsive. It was a pleasure!

Fantastic apartment, stunning views. Apartment itself very spacious with everything you can possibly need. All appliances high quality. Balcony very private and very quiet. Paula a great host. Very responsive and helpful. Would highly recommend this accommodation. Great bar and restaurants. Amazing beach at front door. Best Airbnb we have stay in and would definitely return. Thanks Paula for letting us stay.

Luciana’s place was absolutely gorgeous. The views from the house were stunning, yet it feels private enough giving the apartment an air of luxury. The kitchen is well kitted out, and the old city is just within reach by foot. Couldn’t recommend this place enough!

Beautiful bright, clean and spacious apartment in a super location. Walking distance from all amenities but uber is so quick and reasonable you don’t have to walk if you don’t want to. Olhao is gorgeous and has fabulous restaurants. Miguel was a perfect host - friendly and quick to respond to any queries. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend

Truly spectacular apartment. Wonderful location equidistant between the Old Town and the Strip, so perfect for guests wanting to visit either, but noise disturbance is minimal. Wonderfully presented, tastefully decorated and modern. Amazing views of the sea and the beach from both balconies. Beach clubs and lots of loungers only a 5 minute walk. A word on Nelson- he is a brilliant host, he managed to accommodate an early check in at short notice and was very quick to respond to any queries we had over the Airbnb app both before and during our stay. We had never stayed in Albufeira prior to this trip but should we return we would come back here without question. The whole experience has been exceptional.

Excellent location. Steps from beach. Loved watching surfers. Bruno made us feel right at home. Would stay again.

Asa’s home is a great spot for a family vacation, it is very comfortable, located in a peaceful complex with a beautiful pool and in close proximity (walking distance) to a beautiful beach. The children enjoyed the home so much as it also had a small playground next door to the house. There were two other areas also within a walking distance with restaurants and other beaches. All in all greatly recommended. Thank you for the beautiful visit. 🤍

We enjoyed our stay in Albufeira and had an amazing beach day. It was much warmer than predicted. We appreciated the beach bags and towels provided by Marina. A tip if you are taking an uber to the property-ask to be dropped off at Hotel Indigo to save yourself a challenging walk with suitcases to the property.

Exceptional location in Old Town Lagos! Sarah was incredibly communicative! As the description points out, there is no air conditioning, but Sarah gives pointers as to how to keep the place cool. Also, the entry stairs are a bit steep so be warned if you have large luggage. You’re literally minutes from restaurants and bars and there is an exceptional coffee shop just down the block. The place is a gem—felt very local!!

Teresa is amazing - the place is terrific. Really well located yet quiet. I’m a quite tall so I am not always suitable for Portuguese homes, but the home is perfect in every way. Very quaint very clean and very comfortable.

Gorgeous time. Recommend to anyone. Would come back.

Our stay at Casa Bombarda was the highlight of our trip—both the unit and Lagos completely exceeded our expectations. The home is absolutely beautiful, with three stunning outdoor spaces, including a rooftop patio where we enjoyed ocean views and unforgettable sunsets. Luis was a fantastic host—great with communication, full of helpful recommendations, and always quick to respond to any questions or needs we had. The unit is fully equipped with everything you need for cooking and cleaning, which made our stay incredibly comfortable and convenient. The location is ideal: a short walk to the heart of old town and close to amazing restaurants, shops, and beaches. Casa Bombarda went well above and beyond what we hoped for. We’ll always remember our time here and will be recommending it to everyone we know!

What an amazing stay in Carrapeteira! Great house, good restaurants nearby, and two beaches in walking distance, highly recommended!

Fabulous place for a family. Great experience from start to end. Clear instructions. Super clean, spacious and bright. The location is great - a 2.minute walk to our excursion (kayaking), and a 5-minute walk to the boardwalk that leads to the city center! Beaches are about a 5-minute drive!

stunning apartment, appears exactly as the pictures show. homely and welcoming. great location, a short drive into town to avoid walking back up all the hills with children. swimming pool area was clean and welcoming of a family having fun. the apartment even provided beach/pool towels for us use, beach games and the umbrella came in very handy

Exceptional view, perfect apartment, plenty of space, easy access to the apartment, market and restaurant! It was great! There was a lot of work in the area which didn't bother us but it justifies our rating of the neighborhood. Very responsive host!!! We really enjoyed his support when needed! Highly recommended!

Cannot say enough about this place-would recommend every time. Walkable to fantastic restaurants and shopping, view is unbeatable. The pool was an added bonus after a day of sightseeing! Easy to access hiking, ocean activities and shops to stock up on provisions. Maria and Robert were very helpful and responsive hosts. Stop looking and book!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kasia's place. Kasia was extremely helpful with providing us with invaluable information regarding things to do and places to go whilst in Lagos. We would definitely stay there again.

We loved staying at Marlene's place! The location can't be beat. The views were amazing and we enjoyed the easy access to the beach and the walking trails along the cliffs. We found the walk to town totally doable (10-15mins) with also a few restaurants even closer (Mar, Luca's rooftop, etc.). The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked. We would definitely stay here again.

Rosa’s place was great and exactly as described. Very short distance to beach and town (~15 min). She had recommendations which we appreciated. Check-in was easy. The place was as described and Rosa was super communicative. We encountered some issues after checkin and Rosa handled them immediately, which was so appreciated!! The place was super clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay again. Thanks for an amazing stay, Rosa!

Just wow😊. Beautiful view and impeccable apartment in terms of cleanliness and decor. Everything is on foot, beach, restaurant and shops nearby. No need to rent a car if you want to enjoy Olhos. ☀️Ana Paula answers all your questions very quickly. I highly recommend it and for my third time in Olhos, it's still a success for the whole family. Thank you and see you soon. 🌺☀️
