Villa vacation rentals in Praia da Arrifana

The most amazing place we’ve ever stayed. We travel as a family of 7 and use Airbnb regularly all over the world. This is the best presented, best location, so close to fun experiences, history, culture, beaches. We all loved it and wish we’d stayed longer. The house is beautiful, well thought out and stunningly decorated, with well curated art. It felt like home much more than the average Airbnb experience. Highly recommended.

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.

It was our privilege and fulfillment to stay at Dreams Sunday. It was a memorable trip with all my friends as we had throughout the week together. Dreams Sunday provided accommodation so that we could have several activities throughout our stay. The pool was clean! The host was active throughout the conversation if we needed more information or help during our stay. We also requested check-in early and the host was able to accommodate. Also, the host is attentive to our needs with small important things such as provided new clean towel for us during middle of our stay! We are all glad that we found Dreams Sunday for our stay. If we will have a chance to be back in Portugal, we will definitely book with Dreams Sunday again! :)

We were a group of 6 with 4 adults and kids age of 4 and 10 and stayed for 10 nights. We came in late and were able to self check in. The host had arranged us some small snacks, drinks and some breakfast which was great. Everything in the trip went well and we had no real issues in the villa. The kids loved the pool which was a good place to relax and cool during hotter hours. The place is located on a quite high hill which offers a nice view to the sea and the vity but makes walking down (and especially back up) to marina or old town a bit more difficult for the older people. But occasionally we used an app for rides which take 5mins to arrive and cost only average of 5euros. The location is quiet and peaceful! Using the showers at the same time at least in the 2nd floor had some issues with warm water and pressure but it wasn't a big deal. All in all can recommend.

We loved our stay at Jinny’s place; gorgeous, spacious house with all amenities. The nearby beach and villages are amazing as well. We would definitely recommend this place!

Our stay was great! Colette was on hand and incredibly responsive. We had an issue one evening and their handyman came out late at night to resolve, very quickly. Would recommend and would stay again.

Our stay here was fabulous! This house is peaceful, private, in a nice location, and just as promised in the description. We enjoyed morning coffee outdoors and a glass of wine in the evening while overlooking the beautiful the hills. The pool, views, and outdoor tub made our holiday extra special- kids and adults both agreed it was a wonderful place. We hope to return again!

Fabrice was a gentleman and pleasure to deal with. He was very responsive, helpful and informative. The accommodation was beautiful, spotless clean, very spacious and in a very quiet area which was great. Walking distance to the town which had nice beaches, shops and restaurants. It’s a good location if you want to go visiting other towns too. A great family holiday was had. Thanks Fabrice.

We loved our stay in Benagil. The house on a cliff overlooking the ocean was amazing and peaceful. We hiked to the beach and along the cliffs from the house and we took day trips by car to nearby towns. The house was large and pristine. Marco was very responsive and provided local recommendations. We couldn’t have asked for a better trip.

Great pad and great location, the walking trails were particularly noteworthy and incredible. Would 100% stay again! The place is just outside of town but really only a 5 min car ride or 10-15 min walk to most places. Very comfortable and convenient. Paolo and Ricardo were great hosts and incredibly responsive.

Lovely house with a pool in quiet neighborhood close to the center. House is in good condition but the glass roof leaks when it rains and the house needs some repairs and upkeep. The doors stick. The grill was not cleaned and only one side works so it is rather small for 10 people. Fun place for groups and enough bathrooms for everyone.

We were four adults and four children who stayed at Natalie's house for a week. It was the perfect place for our holiday. The house, complete with a garden and pool, was beautiful, and the area is simply wonderful. Natalie and Chris were great and friendly hosts, and we can highly recommend the house.

We were a group of 10 people and had a wonderful time at Sam's villa The facilities were perfect, everything was clean and looked like the pictures. Sam was a perfect hostess who was always helpful and available. The villa is in a quiet area, but you are within 10-15 minutes by car to the lively places. We would definitely come back again!

We had a fantastic stay at Casa dos Terracos. Natalia was extremely helpful and responsive. The house is beautiful and really well laid out. We will be back!

We had a really special week here with our three young children. We have been to the area before so knew this location was a drive away from the shops and beaches, but we wanted somewhere with a pool warm enough, and a special place to spend our 10 year wedding anniversary and our youngest son's 4th birthday. We were blown away by the decor, outside spaces and comfort of the villa and loved being able to spend time here. Our children loved the pool (they're pretty hardcore with cold water and also spent forever in the sea, but having the heated pool was definitely necessary for this time of year!) and having space for the gym and hot tub was a real treat for us grown-ups! We were really touched by the thought that went into making our and our son's birthday stay special, and all the communication from our hosts. It was an investment but truly worth it for us, and we would all really love to come back - having the surf/bodyboards, bikes, beach gear and inflatables is a real gamechanger!

Ana is an outstanding host. Very nice, helpful and always approachable. The house is in a very nice location, very nice and clean and well equipped.

This was a great place to stay. It is exactly as it appeared. Incredibly spacious. A few local restaurants in walking distance that were nice. A close walk to an amazing small beach with a great bar, cafe and restaurant - feels almost private. The only reason for the 4 star point was that there was limited written information about the house/surrounding area in the house, however, reception was able to provide all the answers we needed when we asked. Would love to return again!

We had a lovely stay at Casa Alva and found David to be a really helpful, honest, thoughtful host. The villa has a v peaceful location with beautiful sea views, especially from the living area (on the first floor) and its large wraparound balcony. The pool is a very good size, with a proper deep end, so great for families with bigger kids - and heated! We asked David if he would heat it for us earlier in the season than usual (we stayed in early April) and he kindly agreed, which made a huge difference to our stay - thanks, David! The outside kitchen with charcoal BBQ, sink and fridge overlooking the pool is really great. Be aware it's an approx 25 minute walk into town/the beach (15 mins to Baptista/Spar supermarkets) - all downhill in, all uphill going back! We didn't hire a car, and found this walkable (you can also walk to Espiche) tho Bolt taxis and local buses are also easily available. We didn't have small kids with us tho - ours are tweenagers. All in all - recommended!

The house is lovelly for a good vacations

This is an exceptional villa, set back in a private hilltop with a great view. The heated pool was perfect - never too cold to get into even during the cool April weather. We appreciated having an outdoor BBQ and were able to spend a relaxing week in Portugal. Silves is a quiet town 5 mins drive from the villa and has most amenities. Within an hour's drive you can easily be in Faro or Lagos. Highly recommended.

Casa Lina was excellent. Very spacious and well equipped, the pool area was beautiful and the team were very helpful. Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay at the apartment of John, we had some problems at the beginning with the key and the Wi-Fi, but John was easy to reach and Esther helped us quickly.

Andrew has always been very collaborating. We had a problem with the refrigerator and came immediately to solve it. Space had ping pong, rackets, ball etc. everything that makes a child happy. The space is big and comfortable.

We spent a fabulous and relaxing week at Guy’s villa. The property is so spacious and had great facilities. We loved the swimming pool, pool table and table tennis. The gardens are beautiful and very private and peaceful. We self-catered a lot and there was everything we needed in the kitchen. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.
