Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Mexilhoeira Grande

Die Villa mit Pool war sehr schön, und der Ort Carvoeiro ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt, um die Algarve zu erkunden. Es gibt tolle Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, und das Haus ist großzügig gestaltet, mit einer schönen Poolanlage und vielen gemütlichen Plätzen zum Verweilen. Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Ahua Portugal, where our host Anne guided us with thoughtful local tips and quick responses. Nestled on a peaceful hillside above Seixe Valley, the modern house had every comfort we needed and felt like the perfect retreat. We were deeply inspired by Anne’s dedication to the land. She has led a reforestation project across her 18-hectare estate, planting over 30,000 cork trees to restore the forest after wildfires. Tip: Do plan to bring a reliable car. The unpaved access roads are best navigated with a vehicle that has good clearance. If you’re seeking a serene, private getaway with a caring, responsive host deeply connected to her land, Ahua Portugal is an exceptional choice! Five stars all the way, and thank you, Anne!

Wir verbrachten 8 wundervolle Tage in der Villa „Casa vista do mar“ – ein echtes Paradies. Man fühlt sich sofort wohl, umgeben von purer Natur mit atemberaubendem Ausblick. Das Ferienhaus ist top ausgestattet, es fehlt an nichts. Dank Tobias’ Wegbeschreibung war die Anreise vom Flughafen Faro problemlos. Vor Ort stand uns Andrea zur Seite und versorgte uns direkt mit Infos zu Restaurants, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Ausflugszielen. Wir konnten wunderbar abschalten und neue Energie tanken. Die Ruhe, die Aussicht und die liebevolle Betreuung machten unseren Aufenthalt unvergesslich. Wir empfehlen dieses Ferienhaus uneingeschränkt weiter und wissen schon jetzt: Wir kommen wieder! Herzlichen Dank an Tobias und Andrea für diesen perfekten Urlaub.

Wer Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit sucht , hat hier den richtigen Ort gefunden. Mit viel Liebe zum Detail wurde dieser Ort gestaltet . Die Terrasse ist wunderbar um die Aussicht auf die Pinienwälder und die Ruhe zu genießen. Es gibt keinen Fernseher , Abschalten ist garantiert . Wir hatten einen Hund mit dabei und da müsst ihr wissen , dass das Grundstück nicht vollständig eingezäunt ist , der vorhandene Zaun hat Löcher oder ist teilweise defekt ! Auch kommen vom Nachbarn zwei Herdenschutzhunde zu Besuch , diese sind riesig , aber super lieb ! Wer Angst vor Hunden hat , darf hier keinen Urlaub machen! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt …. Danke Ana

The Lemon Lodge is tucked away in the mountains, providing a lovely and peaceful retreat away from the main bustle. That serenity comes with the trade-off of being a nice drive away from town up some challenging roads but you can get the hang of it after once or twice. Definitely need a rental car, mid-size is even better. The house itself is stunning and really well designed. Kitchen has everything you need. We cooked a lot on the grill in the back. Would have liked screens on the windows to let some fresh air in, as bugs up there can be tricky.

Nous avons eu la chance de trouver à derrière minute la Casa Funchal grâce à la réactivité de Chris. Située en hauteur, la villa est un havre de paix après une journée de visites. La pisicine chauffée grâce aux panneaux solaires est un véritable plus pour se baigner en mai dans l'après-midi ensoleillé sans avoir froid. Cottage à l'anglaise bien décoré et très mignon, à 10mn de Faro centre. Nous la recommandons pour les voyageurs motorisés.

We loved staying here. Anna-Lena was very welcoming. Her place is very special and has been created with a lot of love. There were also oranges and wine in our kitchen which was lovely. Anna-Lena took the time to share info on hikes and beaches. We love having locals tell us about special spots.

An amazing stay at this Airbnb, especially for families with young kids. You can see sunrise and sunset from the location, the pool is amazing with toys, and there are swings and slides on the sprawling property. The outdoor grounds were peaceful to walk around, with orange and lemon trees. The indoor space was clean and well-decorated and with toys for the kids to play with. The kitchen was beautiful and well stocked for us to prepare meals. We really liked that there was a washer and dryer so we could fully dry our clothes, especially before flying out. Bathrooms were clean and well stocked. The parking lot was spacious enough for 2 cars. The minor issues we found was that the location is a bit remote so you need to drive around to get anywhere, and there's actually 3 rooms in the main unit, not 4. The 4th room + bathroom is located an separate but attached building that accesses the main building via a courtyard and is an extra fee. That threw us off, but it was fine at the end.

Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt ich würde jeden empfehlen hier zu buchen! Diese Unterkunft war das Highlight unseres Portugal Aufenthaltes! Sowohl die Gastgeber als die Wohnung Wir würden jeder Zeit sofort wieder buchen Die Ferienwohnung und das Anwesen sind ein Traum. In echt sogar noch toller als auf den Bildern

A great apartment with everything that we needed. Lovely balcony to sit at and enjoy a view and also the sounds of the street below. Nice to have lots of amenities including a washing machine and line to dry clothes on. Easy to get to and from the train station with only a 15min walk and 10mins to the bus station. We enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again.

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

We had an amazing holiday staying at Algar Seco Parque. The site is so well kept by the staff. The gardens are beautiful. Cleaners come in and tidy your accommodation. It was such a lovely surprise to come back to find that the beds were made and even the dishes had been done. Thank you to all those who helped us to have a relaxing holiday

This was an incredible stay! The cleanest air bnb I have ever stayed in. Host was very friendly and kind and accommodating, great walkable area. Very quiet and comfortable. AC in the unit, all the amenities!

Het appartement is ruim en heeft alle comfort. Ons verblijf was begin mei, het was erg rustig in de omgeving. Weinig appartementen waren bezet. Wat ons het meest plezier deed, was het prachtige terras met zich op de oceaan (in de verte). Heerlijk om er te ontspannen. Van deze locatie bereikten we vlot, per huurwagen, leuke locaties: de westkust, Albufeira, Silves, Monchique, Luz, ... Er is een fijn strand op wandelafstand. Er zijn restaurantjes in de buurt, voor elk wat wils. Misschien is er minder rust wanneer het hoogseizoen is aangebroken, maar begin mei was het heerlijk rustig en nog niet te warm.

Super Kommunikation mit Pedro. Immer eine schnelle Antwort bekommen. Sehr leicht zu erreichen und gute Parkmöglichkeiten. Check-In war super einfach. Wir haben 6 Nächte in der Unterkunft verbracht. (Hätten auch gerne mehr verbracht) Es war alles vorhanden was man gebraucht hat. Besonders gut fanden wir die ruhige Umgebung. 3 Swimmingpools und ein kleine Kinder/Babybecken. Sehr schöner Strand. War alles super. Vielen dank an Pedro.

We've stayed in a few places in Prainha and this was by far the best. The location is perfect, and the listing itself really lovely. Everything you need for a week self catering.

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.

Vielen Dank, dass wir Gas bei Ihnen sein durften! Das Haus, die Lage als auch die Einrichtung waren zweifelsfrei hervor. Absolut wundervoll und äußerst stilvoll eingerichtet. Mit viel Liebe zum Detail. Der Austausch mit dem Gastgebern war schnell und einfach. Absolut empfehlenswert und jeden Euro wert!! Klare Empfehlung. Ganz herzlichen Dank und beste Grüße aus Deutschland Max, Miriam und die Crew

Craig is an amazing host, always here to help, very discreet, extremely responsive and flexible and super nice. His house was perfect for us as we stayed as 2 families, very well equipped, with multiple places to chill and relax as the day goes by, the pool is sensational and just perfect with kids. The lightings at night is great, we love the house and its garden. thanks so much Craig for this amazing stay.

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!

My wife Beth and I just had our wedding at the tiny whale lodge and it could not have been more perfect! Every single detail was considered and taken care of and the team we met could not have been more friendly, helpful and responsive. We would come back every year if we could!!

Beautiful setting and so peaceful. We stayed for 2 weeks in June 2025, the location is high up the mountain so can be cool in the mornings and evenings. However we loved having an open fire in the evenings and James provided all the wood we needed. James was quick to respond when called upon. We loved the space this property gave us and grew to love its quirky design layout. We would certainly recommend James and “villa de Cima” one thing we would advise is having the pool heated. Thanks James

If you are looking for a beautiful location to unplug and relax, look no further than Bernardo & Laura’s place. The photos don’t do justice to the breathtaking views. Their place is in a very peaceful and quiet spot in the mountains; while still being only about 35 minutes from the amazing beaches of the Algarve. We were a group of 6 people, including 2 young kids, and we always felt very comfortable in the spacious accommodations. Laura was super responsive and helpful in all of our communications and was able to accommodate an early check-in, which we appreciated after a long flight. We would definitely recommend this home.

From the start, communication was outstanding, nothing was too much trouble and the help was 5 star, we couldn't have asked for more. The villa was just beautiful, it was immaculately clean and extremely well equipped as was the pool area. We had an amazing stay and were made to feel very welcome on arrival and knew that we could make contact at any time. An exceptional villa with exceptional host, would highly recommend 😊
