Waterfront holiday rentals in Albufeira

Highly recommend! The apartment was incredibly comfortable and had all the amenities needed for a perfect beach getaway. You can tell it’s thoughtfully set up by someone who either travels often or stays here themselves.

The apartment is beautifully decorated (as in the photos) and efficiently designed to have more storage than appears. It was very clean. It is small but very well designed for 2 couples. We mistakenly thought it was 3 full baths but it’s 2.5 baths as the guest bathroom has no shower. Isabela is quick and easy to communicate with and flexible in accommodating our needs like getting us an extra set of sheets and blanket for the couch. The view is absolutely amazing! Albufeira is more of a party town but the apartment is located in a quieter area away from the crowds and noise. It is within walking distance to many restaurants and the beach. Albufeira is touristy but worth a visit and we would definitely recommend staying at this apartment. Thanks Isabela for a wonderful stay!

Nuno was a really wonderful host. When I found this house I had concerns about the stairs as one of our group had challenges climbing stairs. I asked Nuno about this and even if he knew of any other airbnbs in the area without stairs. He was so kind to help me out. Eventually I booked his/this house as it met all our other criteria. Nuno was great with communication and extremely friendly with advice, recommendations and tips about restaurants, bus schedules, and the area. The house was well kept and the terrace is fantastic! Location in Old Town is also fabulous!! Thanks Nuno, appreciate everything you did to make our stay great!

We loved our stay here, it’s just fabulous, everything you need very close by, people very friendly, our second visit to this property and we love it

We loved our stay at Nuno'a place. The view from the balcony is second to none and waking up to the sound of the waves each morning was truly special. Nuno was responsive and helpful throughout our stay and the extensive kitchen utensils meant we could cook some delicious food during our stay. Everything was spotless, clean and comfortable. A brilliant choice for anyone who wants a relaxed holiday close to a beautiful stretch of beach. Highly recommend!

Maria was a wonderfully accommodating host. The apartment was perfectly situated, spacious and sparkling clean. She was very responsive and available throughout our stay.

We had an absolutely amazing time at Mario's apartment, exactly as it looked in the photos, very clean, tidy and a great pool. very easy walking distance to the beach and restaurants. I would highly recommend anyone to stay here.

Truly spectacular apartment. Wonderful location equidistant between the Old Town and the Strip, so perfect for guests wanting to visit either, but noise disturbance is minimal. Wonderfully presented, tastefully decorated and modern. Amazing views of the sea and the beach from both balconies. Beach clubs and lots of loungers only a 5 minute walk. A word on Nelson- he is a brilliant host, he managed to accommodate an early check in at short notice and was very quick to respond to any queries we had over the Airbnb app both before and during our stay. We had never stayed in Albufeira prior to this trip but should we return we would come back here without question. The whole experience has been exceptional.

Excellent location. Steps from beach. Loved watching surfers. Bruno made us feel right at home. Would stay again.

Asa’s home is a great spot for a family vacation, it is very comfortable, located in a peaceful complex with a beautiful pool and in close proximity (walking distance) to a beautiful beach. The children enjoyed the home so much as it also had a small playground next door to the house. There were two other areas also within a walking distance with restaurants and other beaches. All in all greatly recommended. Thank you for the beautiful visit. 🤍

The view itself is worth staying at this place. We loved listening to the waves as we fell asleep and loved waking up to an incredible view. Even while showering you can look out at the ocean. It was clean and has the bare minimum necessities. I think this spot on the interior has potential to be much cuter and a little better stocked, but we still loved our stay. We spent our afternoons on the deck tanning and loved how all restaurants, bars, and beach were all walking distance. This town is adorable!

We had the absolute best time at this Airbnb. Located right along the Seven Hanging Valleys Trail, this house provided our family with the perfect spot to explore the various beaches easily accessible along the trail. The house also has a very charming (and enclosed) outdoor space my kids loved to plan in when we were getting ready. Stephanie was an outstanding host who communicated very well and ensured we had everything we needed for a great stay. Highly recommend if you want to do some hiking or trail running and visit local beaches. We loved our stay!

Exceptional location in Old Town Lagos! Sarah was incredibly communicative! As the description points out, there is no air conditioning, but Sarah gives pointers as to how to keep the place cool. Also, the entry stairs are a bit steep so be warned if you have large luggage. You’re literally minutes from restaurants and bars and there is an exceptional coffee shop just down the block. The place is a gem—felt very local!!

Our stay at Casa Bombarda was the highlight of our trip—both the unit and Lagos completely exceeded our expectations. The home is absolutely beautiful, with three stunning outdoor spaces, including a rooftop patio where we enjoyed ocean views and unforgettable sunsets. Luis was a fantastic host—great with communication, full of helpful recommendations, and always quick to respond to any questions or needs we had. The unit is fully equipped with everything you need for cooking and cleaning, which made our stay incredibly comfortable and convenient. The location is ideal: a short walk to the heart of old town and close to amazing restaurants, shops, and beaches. Casa Bombarda went well above and beyond what we hoped for. We’ll always remember our time here and will be recommending it to everyone we know!

Elsa’s place made our honeymoon absolutely perfect. Spotless and exactly like the photos. A perfect base for exploring Faro and surrounding areas, lovely restaurants on your doorstep. Felt safe walking around the area, even late at night. Noise not an issue, just the construction that is mentioned in the ad but that didn’t bother us! The pool is perfect for cooling off on hot days! Sad to leave, thank you for an amazing holiday!

What can you say, just fantastic. The Airbnb is beautifully furnished. The location is great. We weren't surfers, which is common in the area. But we could do all sorts of things. The sunsets were indescribable. Barbara gave us a lot of helpful tips for the area, which we all implemented. She was always available and responded to our requests. Thanks Barbara. We recommend having a car, so you can explore the south and west coast perfectly. The neighborhood was also very friendly. Great restaurants nearby, we loved O Pontal in the village center.

Fabulous place for a family. Great experience from start to end. Clear instructions. Super clean, spacious and bright. The location is great - a 2.minute walk to our excursion (kayaking), and a 5-minute walk to the boardwalk that leads to the city center! Beaches are about a 5-minute drive!

lovely 3 nights break 👌 perfect location to the beach and restaurants and easy parking right outside for free. would highly recommend this place for a few nights or a week beautiful sea views we loved it

An exceptional view, a perfect apartment, lots of space, easy access to the apartment, the market and the restaurant! It was superb! There was a lot of work in the area which did not bother us but it justifies our evaluation of the neighborhood. Very, very responsive host!!! We really appreciated his support when needed! Highly recommended!

Cannot say enough about this place-would recommend every time. Walkable to fantastic restaurants and shopping, view is unbeatable. The pool was an added bonus after a day of sightseeing! Easy to access hiking, ocean activities and shops to stock up on provisions. Maria and Robert were very helpful and responsive hosts. Stop looking and book!!

I can’t recommend Karine’s apartment highly enough. Spotlessly clean, great quiet location within easy walking distance of the beach and lots of restaurants and supermarket. Pool area was secluded and private for myself and young family. Even though there was some building work going on to the apartment complex the builders were quiet and very respectful of us as guests. Already planning our next stay and we haven’t left Portugal!

We loved staying at Marlene's place! The location can't be beat. The views were amazing and we enjoyed the easy access to the beach and the walking trails along the cliffs. We found the walk to town totally doable (10-15mins) with also a few restaurants even closer (Mar, Luca's rooftop, etc.). The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked. We would definitely stay here again.

This was such a lovely apartment, me and my 3 friends really enjoyed staying here! And Lisa was more than helpful. HIGHLY recommend it’s so close to old town and other main parts of the area

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!
