Condo vacation rentals in Porches

We returned to Michael’s appartment, after our first stay one year ago. The appartment was just as brilliant: clean, well equipped, comfortable, in a quiet peaceful location within walking distance to a sand beach, secured environment for our kids & very helpful and reactive host. Thank you very much for making our annual stay in the Algarve perfect and we hope to come back next year.

We stayed as a group for a special birthday, as we were arriving late we asked the host to purchase a bottle of wine and some snacks for arrival (there is a welcome basket there also) and Marnix was extremely accommodating. The location is beautiful, views of the ocean and the beach is a 2 minute walk down the hill. It is a little bit pricey but I felt it was really good value as split between the group it was more than affordable but you do get what you pay for. There is an indoor and outdoor pool (we only used this on the last day). The location is a short walk into the new town strip area and around 7euros into old town via a bolt, this was also for x-large bolt as we were a party of 6. I would definitely recommend, it a beautiful villa, in a gorgeous location. Thank you for all your help as you are a very responsive host and so helpful.

Excellent stay. Rui was very responsive and helpful. It does require for you to know exactly when you are arriving and leaving as there is no remote access. The place was beautiful, clean, modern and with easy access to old town Albufeira. Would 100% recommend to everyone looking to visit Albufeira but also have options for private pool, great views and walkable to both old town Albufeira.

Excellent location - very close to the beach and great restaurants. The place itself was spotless and comfortable. Plenty of closet space with lots of hangers for our clothes. Bathrooms were clean and loved the medicine cabinet mirror to store all our toiletries. Finally, the instructions were complete, clear, and precise. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

We stayed at Fernanda's home for more than three weeks. Very nice apartment, completely renovated and very well-equipped. Fernanda is a host who takes care of her tenants. She is very polite and remains available for any questions or special needs. It even went so far as to have us delivered a new hair dryer, more powerful and suitable for use "like at home". The terrace is lovely during the day. In the evening, the outdoor lighting on the terrace is a little insufficient but nothing that still prevents a pleasant stay. The swimming pool is in an impeccable state but not very intimate due to its central position. The environment is very quiet, in a neighborhood surrounded by quite chic residential house. The view from the front terrace, on the kitchen side, can make anyone looking for peace of mind. Very beautiful beaches can be reached in a few minutes by car (5 to 10 min). To finish, a very nice holiday.

Everything worked out for us and we can fully recommend the apartment. A short walk through the garden to the beautiful beach is just perfect. It was also great that we were allowed to enter the accommodation much earlier than usual on the day of arrival. Thank you again for that.

Our stay was fabulous. The apartment was great and had everything we needed for our vacation. For all our questions we got answers from Carlos, Filomena and the team within minutes, no matter what time of the day. They even made our check-in possible at a late time in the evening, which was very forthcoming. We would definitely come again as we felt right at home. The only possible thing to note was that the apartment was rather dark during most times of the day because the sun only hits the windows in the morning - but you can spend you time outside on the balcony which is a great spot to sit and relax. Very recommended!

Great apartment looks better than photos very tastefully done interiors very helpfull and responsive hosts we had a late flight and they allowed us a late check out till 5pm,very accommodating and also allowed us an early check in. Really enjoyed staying here thank you so much Highly recommended apartment

Have stayed at this accommodation before - modern, clean & very well equipped - in a quiet development that is easy to find & suited our trip (golf) The marina is nearby where there are countless good & varied bars & restaurants to try. If you want somewhere quiet but with lots of life within 10 mins then this is a good Algarve location - great base to explore a selection of high level golf courses. A great host & no doubt will stay again.

This is a great place to stay, the apartment is lovely. You can walk into Ferragudo with lovely restaurants cafes and beaches. Parking is easy . Friendly neighbourhood. Great

We would recommend this to anyone looking for a first class apartment in a fairly quiet location. The top floor balcony gives access for al fresco dining, sunbathing and evening chilling. The views are simply stunning. the apartment is perfectly located for a few bars, restaurants, and supermarkets. all literally outside your main door. The apartment itself is modern, spacious and perfect. we've stayed in a lot of Airbnbs and this ranks as one of the very best. also the downloadable instructions to get in are fool proof!! thank you

Communication with Karine was perfect and the accommodation very nice. Everything matched the description and images. Thank you, we will be happy to come back.

Great apartment with absolutely beautiful views – 10/10. 😍It is small, but very conveniently furnished and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. In addition, it is within walking distance to most things, so it is easy to get around

Paulo’s place is a good apartment for a comfortable and relaxing stay. It was located outside but still close to touristic areas, restaurants etc. You can easily spend more than a week here. His space was spacious and well-equipped place. We enjoyed ourselves and can recommend! :)

João was an amazing host! He helped us bring luggage in and left only after thoroughly explaining different “hacks” for the space and the local area. He provided us with a list of things we may want to check knout and still checked in most days to see if he could help in any way and provided additional recommendations. The place is also centrally located with lots to do and eat nearby. Would definitely recommend staying here.

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!

Bruno’s place was exactly what was advertised. 10 minute walk to one of the best beaches in Europe and 10 minutes to city center. Perfect for my family and our short trip to Lagos. Bruno communicated daily and gave some tips about what to do in Lagos. Overall a great stay and would book again.

Favorite part of the stay, very clean apartment, a super nice terrace with ocean views. The beach is across the street, I highly recommend it

Terrys condo in Carvoeiro was great, the apartment is really spacious and has everything you need, plus a little pool in the garden for cooling off (perfect for our young baby on hot days). There is so much within walking distance from here which was ideal for us with a pram - the beach, multiple restaurants, tennis courts (or pickleball if you fancy it), supermarkets and cafes. Terry was so helpful and welcoming even before we arrived. He greeted us for check in, which was very kind considering we had a late flight. Due to our flight getting in at around 10pm Terry offered to get us some supplies from the supermarket in advance since everything would be closed once we arrived. Nothing was too much trouble, and he is super knowledgable of the area. Couldn’t fault the apartment or Terry, highly recommend.

Super cozy, clean, and well kept apartment! Great proximity to beaches and sites. They do a great job communicating and making sure you have everything you need. Parking can be tough to find at night as it is a busy apartment complex, but not the host’s fault at all and we still had a great stay!

We had a wonderful stay at Steffan’s place. The apartment is clean and modern. The garden area is beautiful and lovely to relax in. Carvoeiro is a short drive away and we discovered some really nice restaurants nearby, so it’s a good location.

Great place to stay, very responsive and welcoming hosts, bottle of wine was great! Location is not overly walkable to Lagos downtown, but wasn’t expecting it to be either. Great pool and amenities at the condo!

Beautiful apartment, super comfortable with lots of extra homely touches and amenities. The food and drink welcome pack was most appreciated. Casa Surf Love is situated in an ideal location for both walking in to the centre of Alvor and going to the beach. Elaine, Stephen & Ash are very friendly and are well worthy of their Superhost status. Thank you for a wonderful stay. Alison & Nigel

I completely endorse the comments that other guests have made. Ingmar’s apartment is a complete home with everything anyone would need for a relaxing stay & offers value & quality. The location is excellent, a hire car is not really necessary as there are bus stops just metres away for trips to the east & west Algarve. For those who like walking the location is perfect for ambles along the coastline & to beautiful beaches. Alvor with its varied restaurants, fantastic beaches & long boardwalk is a must visit. The 3 brothers beach & its restaurants, Sol & Sombre & Canico offer excellent food & a lovely place to swim & sunbath especially if you have children. A day spent there followed by a walk back to Ingmar’s apartment makes for an enjoyable day & a great nights sleep in a very comfortable bed. For those who like a lively nightlife head to Roche. Ingmar is a up there with the best super hosts.
