Waterfront vacation rentals in Portugal

An amazing stay! So sad to leave! The stylish, homey flat was perfect, peaceful yet close to everything. Ideal for couples: hikes to quiet beaches with stunning blue water, and thoughtful extras like beach towels, bags, bats for the beach, and even a parasol! The flat had everything, check the cupboards before buying anything. We recommend hiring a car, parking’s easy and visiting AEZA to walk rescue dogs (message them on socials FB a few days ahead), the Sagres fortress, then lunch at Fermento food&wine. Our fave food spots in Burgau: SUL (breakfast & romantic dinners), Miam (ceviche, mussels, caipirinhas!), Barraca (shrimp starter and octopus salad), and Corso (coffee & pizza). Lagos is more touristy, but Restaurante dos Artistas was a proper romantic dinner treat. This trip was the perfect mix of rest and adventure away from crowds. The beach was never too busy, and the breeze meant you didn’t always need the parasol. The host thought of every detail. We’d come back in a heartbeat.

Maria and Ana’s place was a great stay and what an incredible view! The place was cool on very warm days, close to the beach and many restaurants. Would go back in a heart beat.

The accoms was wonderful, clean and well equipped. Ricardo was very responsive and helpful, however the check in instructions can be a little clearer in English. We highly recommend this accoms!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Isabel and Igor’s apartment with views of the Duoro River. It was exactly as described and stocked with everything we needed. Even though it was in the busy Ribeira area, the apartment was very quiet. We even found a laundromat close by. When we return to Porto we will stay here again.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The views are unreal, pictures cannot do it justice. Short walk to the beach and a pool right below! Gil and Telma were very responsive, we had lost power one night and Telma helped us fix right away. Perfect stay for our first time in Lagos and we would definitely return!

Beautiful place and area.

Family enjoyed a wonderful stay here.

We would very much recommend this flat in Sesimbra - the view is outstanding, it is equipped with everything you would need for a stay of a couple of days and it is easy to reach by car. Be aware that it’s a 20 minute walk alongside a quite busy road when you want to get into the city centre of Sesimbra.

We had a fantastic stay at the villa. Highlight was the unbelievable views from the pool and terrace. The villa and garden with pool & basketball/football court is completely private, perfect for small groups. There are some great local restaurants and river beaches, and Porto centre is only a short drive away. Be warned - there are lots of steep and narrow roads! João was a brilliant host - greeting us on arrival, and easy to reach throughout. Would definitely recommend a stay here!

Bruno and Rita we're wonderful hosts and the Airbnb was charming, spacious, clean, and very close to the beach. It was exactly what we were looking for. And you can see the ocean from multiple rooms which really makes a beach vacation compete.

Maria and her husband's home is a wonderful retreat and oasis directly on the river beds. Maria treated us like family and went above and beyond an Airbnb experience. She welcomed us with open arms, spend a lot of time explaining all the options we have here, for us to choose from, invited us in her own kitchen to prepare pizza dough, showed us how to make pizza in her stone oven, provided us with home produced wine and friends wine, let us use their kayaks and stand up paddle boards. We were able to check in earlier and stay longer and she even bought us lunch that we could eat prior to our departure. Maria is such a warm, generous person and is trying to provide you with the best time in her home. We are so grateful for all you did for all of us individually and as a group. We can not wait to come back one day and the experience and memories will stay with us forever.

The view and grounds were much more stunning than we imagined ! So lush and peaceful with many places one could relax. Elda and her family took excellent care of us and were very kind . We really enjoyed the wine tour we did with Vasco who was an educational guide and took us through the countryside to 2 vineyards with complimentary experiences. The wine the Quinta produces is also excellent and the tour on their grounds interesting , led by the winemaker Diogo. We were there for 3 nights , chose to relax there and not drive . Jose arranged taxi pickup at the train station 15 min away , and with the vineyard tour we were able to see a lot of the beauty of the Douro valley . We used the charcoal /wood fuelled Bbq and sat in the quiet nature under the gazebo with a glorious view . Definitely recommend this Quinta !

Everything was great, we had a really nice and peaceful stay. There seems to be a quarry not far and it made some noise but not too much. And in the evening there was an event nearby with loud music that was a bit disturbing. I don’t know if it’s a regular thing.

The beach house is simply fantastic! Right in front of the sea, with a breathtaking view and a wonderful atmosphere. Everything was impeccably clean and well cared for and the house has everything for a comfortable stay. The proximity of the supermarket, bakery/pastry shop, restaurants and cafe was a great asset. It was an excellent experience. I highly recommend it!

We spent a few days at Alexandra’s place and it was exactly as described if not even more. Extremely well equipped house in a stunning location. We spent days swimming in the ocean, nights admiring the night sky which is stunning in Porto Covo. The house itself is super cool yet very practical. We really loved our stay!

The best Airbnb we've ever stayed in. Fully equipped for all of your needs and wants. Stunning place. ...And then there is the view... !!

This apartment was beautifully maintained, clean, and thoughtfully decorated—full of charm and character that made us feel right at home the moment we walked in. The real star of the show was the garden patio. It was like stepping into a secret oasis in the heart of the city. Lush greenery and the peaceful sounds of birds made it the perfect place for morning coffee, afternoon lounging, or a quiet glass of wine under the stars.

Great view, great accommodation!

Ana’s place felt like a home away from home, we absolutely fell in love with it! The view from the balcony is just unbeatable, even on a cloudy day we enjoyed spending the day there. You have all the amenities you could need for a few days, and the apartment was just spotless! Communication was easy both with Ana and Joao, they were really helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend the place, and would definitely book again!

We loved our time in this centrally located condo! It was cozy and clean, and we had easy access to beaches, stores, and restaurants. We would come here again and again.

The stay was perfect, it's small but has everything you need, just like in the photos, you can park nearby for free and safely. Patricia is a great host, always making sure we were comfortable and recommending good places of interest

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!

if I could give Anita 10 stars I would. Met by the host, in this case Antonio, and shown everything about the apartment, ideas for activities AND given an incredible welcome package that allowed us 2 tired travellers to just relax on the balcony with nibbles etc. and a gorgeous view. Among other things, Beautiful, well stocked kitchen, comfortable bed and living room (love that "cuddle" chair). I could go on and on. You won't regret staying here. We recommend 100%!

We loved the house and location. Super available host.
