Family-friendly holiday rentals in Alto Alentejo

Really enjoyed our stay. Host was very responsive. Tried to make sure we were comfortable. Great location. Fabulous coffee store just steps away.

We had a great stay in Lisboa at Chiho and Nuno’s apartment. It was close enough to Alfama to experience the culture but not close enough that it was noisy or busy where we were. I felt very safe. The apartment had everything we needed and was well-equipped. Thanks for having us

We really enjoyed our 3 nights in the historic center of Sintra. It’s a beautiful small town area to be in. The apartment has everything you need. The location is very cool overlooking the main square. We enjoyed watching the town wake up in the mornings. So many restaurants and bakeries just steps from the front door. We had fun with that after coming from the Azores which are very quiet and remote. In the off season of early May, Sintra closes down by 7 pm. There are very few restaurants or shops open once the day tripping tourists leave. We were surprised by that but didn’t mind it as we were tired after our days spent walking around palaces and castles and beautiful gardens. I’d recommend this apartment to anyone as long as they don’t have mobility issues. There are 33 steps to climb once inside the building. Climbing them was worth it for the views of the historic center of Sintra.

We had a great stay in Zuzana and Tibor’s house. Very convenient for a family, near the beach, walking distance to shops and surf spots. They also are very kind and welcome persons. Thank you !

Good location, thanks for having us

From start to finish, Teresa was most helpful. Accurate information, quick replies to questions all helped beforehand. The apartment itself was brilliant, just what we needed, and the pool was an added bonus, even though the beach and the sea were very close by (although remember Sesimbra is hilly and the quickest way to the beach is via a good number of steps!). The location is great and easy to walk (a few minutes only) to Sesimbra's town and fabulous restaurants. Really happy with our choice. Perfect!

It’s our second time here and our stay was as welcoming as the first. Ana and Jorge’s place is perfectly situated near great restaurants one right next door plus a 15 minute walk to Marquês Pombal and Parque Eduardo Sétimo which has a magnificent view of Lisbon and of the castle from the top. Ana and Jorge always checked on us and left a variety of local foods and beverages upon our arrival that we were so grateful for. Even during our stay Jorge left delicious pastries by the door so not to bother us. Highly recommend this apartment. We will definitely return!!

This place was stunning. We had a great stay! There were six of us and more than enough room. The host was fantastic and super easy to get in touch with. I would definitely stay here again.

Great place in the heart of Almafa. Although you are right in the middle of the action this place can still feel like a secluded oasis. Would love to stay again!

This place is unique. It is a tree house, where you may sit quietly at mid-level or in the crown of the tree, view the vast landscape, and listen to the birds chipping. Amazing. It is the perfect place to calm down. In case you are already calmed down, use the two pools, billiards, table soccer, take a walk, visit an archeological site, go on great hikes, ... It is a unique place.

The place was very nice! The location in the middle of nature was great. It takes about 30 minutes to get to the beach, but that was not a problem for us. We would come back. Thank you!

I loved it, I went with my dog. Great for resting. You can take a walk around the space. I loved it.

Great host and a wonderful apartment in such a fantastic location. being high up also gives you great views, whilst feeling a bit quieter and more peaceful.

Wonderful place. Super cute inside and out. Great location central to Sintra.

We had a lovely stay at Scott and Linn's place. The apartment was sparkling clean and we felt completely comfortable. The scenery is magnificent and the silence of nature has done well. Scott and Linn are wonderful hosts and had lots of lovely tips for us. Also for our dog it was nice that she could move freely on the property. The house dog Feta is also a very sweet animal, which got along well with us and our dog. Thank you very much for this beautiful time.

The apartment is very close to good restaurants and tourism spots. It is spacious for 4 people and we had a great time there.

Very peaceful stay here. Presence of ants/flies/spiders inside as expected from a country home. The only real pitfall is the fact that the water is not potable (must be boiled before consuming).

We had a gorgeous stay here with our toddler. The house had everything we needed for traveling with a child and was complete with toys, beach going needs like towels, umbrellas, and beach toys, as well as a crib and high chair. We borrowed their bikes and explored town and loved visiting the gelato place that’s around the corner. At night, we listened to the frogs in the rice paddies behind the house and loved watching the bird life during the day. Getting to the beach was quick and easy and we spent two days there. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Functional, pleasant and spacious house. As described and photos. Host welcoming and responsive. There are no negative points. We had a great time. You can rent this house without hesitation. If we return to Portugal, we will undoubtedly try to rent this house again. There were 8 of us, 7 adults and 1 child. The pool is lovely. And the hosts are very welcoming. The bottle of wine offered on arrival is a bonus that is very much appreciated.

really great communication from start to finish. Accommodation very clean and walkable to Moura which is a beautiful town. Also close to the river beaches which was recommended by Joaquim and I would also recommend. Also, special mention to Joaquim and his wife for coming to our aid when we got a flat tyre as we left the town. They immediately reassured us with kind words and called someone to come to assist us at the side of the road. They helped us despite being out of the town and on holiday themselves!! Cannot thank them enough. So kind and helpful people. Very organised and have good instructions and recommendations of the area, thanks again

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.

if you don't like: the birds singing, the sound of sheep bells in the distance, bathe in a 15x5 pool for two in a green setting, not to mention the exciting discussions on history, geography, local crafts with Carlos... then go on your way!

What a wonderful time we had in the shepherd's hut! The house has all the comforts. Good bed, good shower, wonderful swimming pool and a beautiful view! Completely relaxed. Wiro and Margriet were very friendly. Recommended!

Filipa's Alfama Airbnb was truly impeccable. We all agreed that this Airbnb made our vacation. This was our first time in Portugal, and we would come back just for this Airbnb. It was clean, picturesque, centrally located, and made for a relaxing vacation. Our favorite aspects were the location, natural light, and swimming pool. Filipa was responsive, helpful, and kind. I recommend staying here to anyone. We loved staying in the heart of Alfama – the neighborhood was walkable and full of restaurants and sightseeing. Our only feedback was that it was a little difficult to locate on Google Maps upon arrival, but once we remembered the location, it was easier. So absolutely worth it.
