Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Santa Catarina da Fonte do Bispo

Just back from a lovely few days staying at Ana Maria and Jorge's cottage, who are such kind and friendly hosts. Well equipped, very comfortable and clean and just what we needed for a peaceful few days resting and exploring the Algarve. Going out and about in a hire car, we especially enjoyed visited historic Silves, swimming in the sea at Portimão and the Sunday church service at São Bartolomeu de Messines Church. Highly recommended!

Orlando and his wife Armanda are super hosts. They are very friendly and communicative. Their place is very peaceful and lovely. They have allowed us to pick up fresh oranges and eggs . We have loved our stay in their place. We just wish the weather was more warmer so we could use a pool more ☀️

Fabio was very friendly and the place was very nice

An absolutely perfect stay! We had a truly wonderful time at Marie Diane’s beautiful home in Portugal. The property was spotlessly clean, incredibly peaceful, and perfectly secluded, offering a real escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The pool was fantastic—clean, refreshing, and a hit with both adults and kids—and the views were absolutely stunning, especially at sunset. Every moment spent by the pool or on the terrace was restful and serene. Marie Diane was an exceptional host—kind, helpful, and incredibly responsive. She went above and beyond, offering amazing recommendations for local restaurants, attractions, and hidden gems that really enriched our experience. Highly recommend this property for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy the best of the Algarve. We’ll definitely be back!

We had a lovely week in Tavira. The property was spotless, well equipped and very comfortable. We particularly loved the roof terrace.

Just wow! Rita met us to check us in and contacted us several times to make sure all was well. Any little issues were addressed right away, kindly and professionally. The little house was clean and cozy with great patio to enjoy a glass of wine with a view to the distant sea. We loved everything and Rita is wonderful!!!! Can’t recommend highly enough. Hope to return!

We loved our stay. It was peaceful and private .It was so well presented,clean and organised.Very central and accessible.A very enjoyable stay with the owners very responsive at all times.Would highly recommend this beautiful villa

We stayed at Isabel’s villa for 9 nights, we were 4 adults and 4 kids. The villa is fantastic - much better than the pictures, well equipped with everything you need and very spacious (big rooms, lots of outdoor space, bbq and a big pool). We paid to have the pool heated which was beneficial as some days it was a bit chilly. The villa is fairly remote, we had cars but also used Ubers to get around. It’s about a 3-4 min drive to the nearest supermarket and a 5 min drive to the main town and beach. Isabel recommended some day trips and local restaurants, all of which were great. She was also flexible with check in and check out times which was super handy with the kids, and was very responsive throughout the trip when we had questions. We’d 100% recommend this villa for a family holiday and hope to return!

The place is ideally located with a short walk to the old town and river. We would highly recommend and hope to visit again and get to stay in this beautiful little house.

Absolutely loved this airbnb. In a prefect walkable location, and easy to drive to with parking. The apartment was gorgeous with everything we needed. Highly recommended

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. Jonathan was very helpful and really communicative throughout my stay. Check-in was super easy, the apartment was very clean with a lovely patio area out the back. The location is fantastic as you're not in the heart of all the action, but only a few minutes walk away and the beach is at the end of the road. I would definitely stay here again.

Cannot recommend enough, Peggy and Rupert were extremely responsive, polite and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The apartment was pristine, as described and in a good location with some really special beaches nearby (15 min walk) From setting up car hire, to restaurant recommendations and parking info, Peggy made everything simple. The apartment was well stocked with all the things you'd need, my only regret was that I didn't have time to finish the book I borrowed off the shelf! We would come back, thanks so much!

We really enjoyed the stay in this Airbnb and had everything we needed. We loved to have a breakfast on the terrace or take an Uber to town. Monica gave us a short tour and instructions through the house and also provided recommendations for nearby activities. We would come back again.

Aurelia’s house had a welcoming atmosphere from the moment I walked in. I especially appreciated the local guidebook on the living room table- it’s clear Aurelia truly cares about her guests’ experience.

We really enjoyed our stay. Nice , quiet area with 10 min walk to the beach . Nice BBQ balcony area.. 10/10 Recommend

We had a very comfortable stay! A/C works really well which was much needed as there was unseasonably warm temps when we went. Host was friendly and responsive and even made local suggestions for us. Great value for money!

We had a fantastic stay at Susana’s place. The accommodation was beautiful and spotlessly clean (very happy to let my little one crawl around on the floors it was so clean!). Much bigger than the photos. Pool area was very peaceful. Lots of amenities without being cluttered. Well stocked kitchen and generous welcome pack. Restaurants and beautiful beaches within walking distance. Great communication and very helpful host. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

We had a brilliant 9-day stay at Tamsin’s house. The villa couldn’t have been better situated, being a 2-min walk from town and within easy reach of local towns / beaches and shops. The house itself was large and well equipped, with a big swimming pool and living area. We travelled with 2 young children and the house was perfect, with stair-gates, toys and a comfortable travel cot and high chair. Tamsin was also very responsive snd accommodated an early check in and late departure. We would highly recommend.

We loved our stay at Terwest and really didn’t want to leave. Everything is perfect, the Villa, the views, the facilities and Sao Bras. We are already booking for summer next year but next time for longer, wish it could be forever!

Mildred and Alex's house, and the surrounding grounds, is a true slice of paradise. It's a house that's been very well designed and is made to live in. Everything is spotless and better than the pictures. In the spring, the view of the flowers, hills and starry sky is very soothing. The house is close to everything. Meeting Mildred and Alex was a real pleasure. Their daughter Emay, also friendly and efficient, responds to requests and transmits information very quickly. Not to mention the dogs Lilly and Louis who are adorable. To date, this is one of our best Airbnb experiences! We hope to come back again again soon.

Madalena was a fabulous host, really friendly and always a quick response to my messages.. a stunning location, the photos really don't do it justice. We stayed for 4 nights, enjoying walking to nearby Loule. A supermarket just 5 mins walk away and a cafe. Would not hesitate to go back, thank you so much Madalena

Villa is absolutely beautiful exactly like it is in the photos highly recommended, Would definitely stay here again villa is only a few minutes from the town by car. Everything you could possibly wish for in the kitchen, right down to a third fridge in the outside barbecue area. We stayed with friends, as 2 families so eight in the villa and had plenty of room. also separate areas for all of us so it never felt like we was all on top of each other I would highly recommend to anyone thinking of staying here Till the next time 😎

Micky and Silvia came across as a lovely couple and very friendly we had a little problem with my sister locking herself out of one of the apartments Micky acame over and sorted it immediately thank you again. The Villa is a fabulous place very peaceful very modern but it needs a few little tweaks like better pillows more cups the sofa beds in the studio apartments are uncomfortable. We took the whole family 11 of us in total. A great week

Honestly, I can’t say enough about Ana on how she went above and beyond to make my weekend celebrating my birthday and bachelorette with my friends special! She went as far as to in on the surprise to ensure that I was completely blown away! The villa is spectacular and my only regret is the number of balloons we left lying around when we left (sorry Ana). The rooms were spacious, immaculately clean, great convenient location with a grocery store and cafes nearby. Also wasn’t too far to get to the main strip! I highly recommend booking this gorgeous villa!
