Holiday rentals with lake access in Bensafrim

We had a great week at this Vale do Rei. Quiet, away from the hustle and bustle of the Algarve, surrounded by eucalyptus and lands that Christiane cultivates with love. The place is perfect (even better than in the photos and much bigger than it looks). Very well equipped, fresh and subtly decorated. The bedding is comfortable. Suitable for children (we were there with our 4 year old daughter). Common spaces further enhance the experience. A car is essential; nevertheless, you will find everything you need at 10min, in the village located at the bottom of the valley. Christiane is infinite kindness and availability. His sense of detail and warmth make us feel like friends of family. Another huge thank you for everything.

Great Villa for the six people in our party. Well set out with bedrooms at one end moving through to a bright and spacious lounge area with dining table and kitchen off that. Then out onto a covered area outside and then pool and sunloungers. Plenty of space to be together without being cramped. Air con in bedrooms is great. Also good washing machine and additional toilet and shower in outbuilding. Well situated in quiet peaceful area with good supermarkets and restaurants nearby. Very prompt and helpful responses to any enquiries we made. Recommended.

Comfortable, well decorated home with all amenities we could need! On a very quiet road, with sea and sunset views from the upstairs balcony. Sarah/Anne were very easily to communicate with. Walkable to a couple of restaurants (Manuel’s on the roundabout is excellent!) but a car needed for other restaurants. Monte Clerigo beach nearby is brilliant for families, with a wonderful cafe on the beach and lots of parking. Take mosquito spray for evenings and nights!

Great property, cats, dogs, horses, pigs, pool, table tennis … everything that big and small desire, wonderful tranquility and yet the beach is not too far away, we can only recommend

Just back from a great week at Casa 38. The place was even better than the pictures and couldnt have asked for much more. The hosts were also really helpful with lots of great, local recommendations. Will definitely be back.

Great place to rest and relax. Calm, very beautiful sounds of birds and other animals. Comfortable house, large rooms and very well equipped.

We had an amazing stay at this Airbnb! The garden and pool area are perfect for relaxing, and the location is ideal for surfers with several great beaches nearby. It’s also perfect for those traveling with a dog, as the fenced and walled property offers peace of mind. Highly recommend for a chill and active getaway!

David's place in Odeceixe is sublime. we had the best time here with our small daughter using the pool and the bbq and enjoying the stunning local beaches. We will definitely come back again

A wonderful apartment in a great location. The terrace is fabulous, the walking trails were plentiful and safe. We used the hot tub every morning!

Large and spacious! Bed a little old but comfortable. Great balcony with view. Close to old town 5-10 minute walk. Would diffently stay there again.

Eva’s apartment was an oasis of calm and the perfect place for a relaxing break. We stayed 5 nights and were so happy we booked! It’s so thoughtfully decorated with everything you can need. The welcome gifts on arrival were such a lovely touch too. It’s in a great location at the Marina of Lagos. It’s quiet with restaurants and bars all within walking distance, as well as a big supermarket. Eva’s local tips and guidebook were spot on and very helpful. Cannot recommend more highly and hope to come back one day!

Amazing!!! Stunning views. Location was perfect. Would stay here again!!! Absolutely loved it here. Highly recommend.

Very nice and generous hosts. I would come back 😊

The apartment was exactly as pictured—modern, clean, and comfortable with beautiful views. The location was walkable, which made exploring the area easy and enjoyable. We appreciated the responsiveness of the host and the thoughtful welcome gift—it was a lovely touch! The recommendations provided were appreciated. That said, there were a couple of things that could be improved. Directions to the apartment were a bit tricky to follow, and the 6 PM check-in time felt quite late compared to my experiences over 8 years of staying in Airbnbs around the world. We were surprised to find that some necessities weren’t provided. For a 3-night stay with 4 guests, only 4 coffee pods and a few mismatched tea bags were available, which seemed more like leftovers than intentional provisions. There were also no paper towels or basic cooking staples (beyond salt and pepper). Overall, we had a pleasant stay, but a few small improvements could make the experience even better.

perfect apartment at a perfect location! beautiful view of the harbour and around the corner from several restaurants! will definitely recommend this place!

Stunning views and lots of windows. Absolutely perfect location if you appreciate peace, nature and the beach. About a 5 minute walk to the beach and the amazing nature preserve. Short uber ride to Armação

Beautiful house! Very clean and stylishly decorated! We had an great week and felt very comfortable. The house is located just outside Silves surrounded by nature. We will be happy to come back!

We loved our stay with Jan. The house and garden are beautiful. A true oasis with lush vegetation, with a superb vegetable garden, where you can hear the birds singing in the morning. The friendly visit of the cat Odin was a plus in the stay. Jan was very friendly, discreet and pleasant. We recommend it without hesitation!

This home is a beautiful farm house in the area - you feel right at home when you arrive and it makes you want to move in. The property is so peaceful, calming and great for kids and outdoor meals. The location is wonderful and right in the middle of all of the beaches in the area. The hosts are incredibly helpful and communicative (the best communication I've encountered with an airbnb) - always there to respond to you if you have questions and help with anything that comes up. The house is also incredibly well equipped for multiple guests and a longer stay - the photos don't reveal just how many dishes, pots and pans, and other supplies the home has. As well, the windows have screens which is a HUGE plus that many airbnbs in the area do not have. If you are there in cooler or wetter weather, the house does get a little bit damp if you are sensitive to that but that is pretty common for most places in the area and the hosts have put things in place to help with it.

My family and I had a very nice week in Marta's house and we felt very comfortable there. The large living area is inviting to be together and the piano was well used. Aljezur is a few minutes' drive away, as well as 3 great beaches. We highly recommend the place!

Hard not to fall in love with this place. Everything one could dream of. It’s a very relaxed environment with two very cool humans, whom which have built a little town of their own if you don’t say! We were lucky enough to have a little tour of the place, hear about how it all started. Went horseback riding with Chris which was incredo. Swam in the pond, sat in the sauna but mostly just enjoyed the view. And hung out with the doggos. Thank you. Will definitely come again when I return to Portugal.

I had the pleasure of staying at Gaismas place for a couple of days to visit relatives in the area. The place is very nice, clean, practical and has very lovingly been created by Gaisma and her partner. It's removed from the main road and you shouldn't be afraid to use unpaved roads, but that's how it is in the whole area. The description to get there Gaisma sent through before arrival was very accurate, and I had no problem getting there. Her dogs are very friendly and curious, but also understand that no is a no. Greatly recommended.

Super friendly people , who help you if needed . Great knowledge of what to do and where to go in the area . Be respectful of your privacy. The cottage is beautiful as it is, with all the amenities a person needs . Calm very relaxing environment , but not too far away from the inhabited world . Absolutely recommended for people who love peace and space. We would choose to come back again. René and Patricia
