Beachfront vacation rentals in Praia da Arrifana

This place was magical. Amazing views, great restaurants and easy access to everything! Very responsive host and everything was well kept and clean. I highly recommend to anyone vacationing in the Algarve and hope to be back soon!

From the moment you arrive, you feel it — that rare, warm sense of home. There's a certain magic in this place that’s hard to put into words. You just know: I want to come back here. Filippa and Luis radiate the kindest, most welcoming energy. You feel it in every detail of the space — thoughtful, cozy, full of heart. It’s more than just a beautiful stay; it’s an experience that leaves you grounded, inspired, and recharged. Truly a magical place. Thank you for creating a home away from home. I can’t wait to return.

An absolutely fabulous place to stay! Beautiful location and outstanding views over the ocean. But the most fantastic part about the house other than a beautiful home to stay in, was how generous and kind our hosts were in taking care of us on this trip. Elsa waited up for us to check us even though our plane arrived extremely late and our drive in was long.Very kind and friendly and helpful! Will definitely go back!

Very cozy home, with nice view from the balcony (the flowers were in bloom, that added to the experience). The outside of the building did not correspond with the cozy inside. 5 minute walk from the lovely beach, 10 minute walk to the supermarket.

Our stay was absolutely magical! From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by the stunning location and the warm welcome from our host. The property itself exceeded all our expectations. The interior is beautifully designed with a perfect blend of charm and comfort. Everything was spotlessly clean and well-maintained, with quality furnishings throughout. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed to prepare meals, though we also enjoyed exploring the local restaurants our host recommended. What really sets this place apart is the incredible location. Being able to wake up each morning, enjoy coffee with breathtaking views, and feel completely relaxed in this peaceful setting made our vacation truly special.

Jorge’s place was really a home away from home especially with our three little girls (5, 4, 1.5 years old). Our girls loved the two bunkbeds. It was spacious, super clean & the kitchen was fully equipped with everything you’d need to cook meals but also walkable to many beaches and restaurants; however one of our favourites was the restaurant just below the building! We loved the beach behind the building as well which was only a few minutes walk. We didn’t end up using the pools in the facility but everything looked great! Jorge himself was very responsive, professional and definitely a superhost helping us check-in as we booked this Airbnb very last minutes and got there later in the evening. The shampoo and conditioner in the showers were nicer than the ones I have at home. I highly recommend this place and we would definitely stay here again when we come back to Portugal in the future. Thank you Jorge for sharing your home with us.

Everything was great!! Very clean, great views, beautiful, quiet location. We will be happy to come back!!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, lovely peaceful neighborhood that was only a few minutes drive from the beach, town centre and Boavista golf club. Two super local restauarants that were popular with locals (and us now as we tried them) were literally around the corner

Gorgeous beach just a little walk away. Town is very nice w beach bars etc. house has awesome views. Views when in pool are not good due to wall. Suggest to maybe put up acrylic wall? Host was super responsive. We loved our stay at this very large house!

We sincerely thank you for the wonderful stay! We adults and children all felt more than comfortable and will definitely be back. Communication with the hosts was prompt, friendly, and in a nutshell. The proximity to the beach is unbeatable, but the location is central, but still quiet. The apartment is cozy, practical and well equipped. On request, we were even brought a special request for the amenities. We couldn't have imagined anything better! Sincerely, Steff and family

Francisca's villa has everything you could possibly need. Its in a beautiful and central location. We hired a car so we could visit Lagos, Sagres and Bergau (which were less then 30mins drive) but if you wanted to stay out you would be very happy here, with a beautiful beach on your doorstep and a great selection of restaurants and bars within minutes to be all to. Francisca gave great recommendations as to which to try. She was a responsive and helpful host. We will be back! Thank you souvh Francisca x

Had a great week long break, the Air BnB was perfect and the pool is much bigger in person then in the photos.

We stayed for four nights and if was perfect! Location at the beach and all the equipment for little kids. Communication was easy and check in time very flexible. Definitely recommend this place!

Magnificent Manifesting! We had the most wonderful stay in this beautiful villa. Outside area was absolutely gorgeous and well maintained. Lovely outside cooking and dining area which we used a lot and the sea is much closer than appears in the pictures. Kitchen was well equipped and the local shops are an easy and beautiful walk to pick up any additional extras. Close to lovely restaurants and bars filled with friendly people and staff. Luz is a wonderful location to explore the Algarve however a week is not enough as there is much to see and do 😉. Just a note that the access to the pool area would not be conducive to someone with mobility issues but is beautiful. Something that everyone really appreciated was the very positive water pressure 😂 seems like a small thing however weirdly it matters. I would not hesitate to stay again or recommend this villa to friends and family. Ideally located, with charm and character in a beautiful location, sea breezes and with a fab host 🙏

The accommodation is one in a quiet area, a little set back from the historic center. But a 15-minute walk will allow you to get there. The pool is very nice… and the accommodation is coquettish. Manuel and Gloria are very attentive...all discreetly!

A lovely place to stay. Close enough to walk to everything you need. Great restaurants and local spar or baptiste. Will definitely come back x

We had an amazing stay at Quinta Albandeira. Cecilia made sure our stay was comfortable and amazing. The house itself is absolutely gorgeous and has views that can't be beat. The house is large enough for a big family or two families to stay together. It's without a doubt one of the best places we've ever stayed at.

The location is a dream for those seeking peace and quiet. Sunrise around 7:30 was a perfect start to the day and then the sun warmed up during breakfast. In the evening, we used the oven every day, so it was cozy and warm (wood available - thanks for that!). For the bathroom in the morning there was a small electric radiator, because the night temperatures fluctuated from 6 degrees to 12 degrees - so it was quite fresh in the morning. We enjoyed the time here very much, also always chatted a little with Andy and Astrid, who take care of the grounds/house very lovingly.

Ana's place was great. We'll stocked and very comfortable. Only downside was the garage entrance. It requires a short 90 degree turn while going uphill/downhill. I recommend a small car and full insurance.

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.

Pedro is an amazing host and is highly recommended as he is very responsive whenever you message him! He helped save our trip by letting us check in after 3am. Local recommendations are provided at the house, it has a very spacious common area, quiet and safe neighbourhood and amazing pool! Only downside is the women of our group think he is too attractive. 😂

It was what we expected, since being in the center of the Algarve, we were able to move in both directions and visit almost everything.

This is a beautiful apartment in a really nice area, which is very accessible to the beach and a nice walk on the boardwalk to the old town area. The view is stunning and it was lovely to wake up to in the morning ! The apartment was clean and had all the amenities that we needed with a family of four, two younger children included. My only complaint was a communication timeline on the day of our checkout where I had requested for our luggage to be held so we can enjoy the beach before our 1:30 PM train. I received a response four hours and 40 minutes later from my 9 AM message to the host Check out time was 10 AM and we had quite a few tasks to complete before. I don’t like having to take out trash while also paying a cleaning fee. We were instructed to take the trash out to a garbage bin, but we had no idea where that was, and there was no instructions left for us as to where that was. Providing paper towels would’ve helped us clean up some spilled wine, we use a white towel.

We were 3 couples and the house as well as the location were perfect for us. We loved walking along the promenade at the Praia da Luz and swimming at the guarded beach. We always had a view of the sea - either from a restaurant on the promenade or from the house. Also many thanks to both the host Susan and to Libby from the house keeping company who made our stay simply wonderful.
