Vacation rentals with lake access in Eastern Algarve

We stayed at Sarah’ Villa for a family break and immediately felt that we'd found a home away from home. Nothing was missing and you find a lot of attention to details, even offering a surfboard. We especially enjoyed the large pool, evenings on the terrace and the breathtaking nature surrounding the villa. Highly recommended for a relaxing holiday.

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.

House was so cute and very clean. Host was super friendly!

David, your home was perfect for my family. We felt we were in a home and not a hotel. Pictures were en point and house was welcoming and clean. Pool was a great addition. Would love to return to Portugal and your home!

Nice place, good location.

José and Sónia's home in Lagos was absolutely fantastic! They were wonderful hosts, providing excellent recommendations for activities and sightseeing around town. The location was perfect—within walking distance of numerous restaurants, making it easy to explore the local dining scene. Plus, a nearby parking garage was just a short three-minute walk away, adding to the convenience. Highly recommended!

I stayed 3 nights at this apartment with my wife and adult daughter. I can highly recommend other people to stay there. The apartment itself is in perfect condition, all the furniture, bathroom, kitchen etc seem new and are of a luxury standard. The location is excellent ie it is in the heart of Tavira. The apartment is managed by Manuel: he managed everything perfectly and replied to any questions very quickly. Overall, a great experience for my family and I.

Shanti's place was just what we needed before heading home. Loved doing the goat walk. The fireplace was amazing on the cool nights. Coffee on the back deck under shelter looking over the hills listening to nature. Really enjoyed talking with the International volunteers who work the farm. Very remote and quiet. A very unique experience that we thoroughly enjoyed and would definitely do again.

The apartment was very clean , equipped in all its stays and good views. Really a good experience

Great place for the 3 of us and excellent host. clear instructions and very proactive in making sure everything was right. Made the process and stay super smooth..

Very beautiful views from the deck. Would recommend to anyone looking to get away for a weekend.

We had a wonderful time as a family. The apartment is spacious, cozy oven, comfortable beds, super equipped kitchen, beautiful terrace with play facilities for children. Great for relaxing and exploring the surrounding beaches etc ..We would love to come again!

Can't beat the view! Perfect place to stay with small kids. Jorge had a high chair, travel crib, and baby bath ready and set up for us as well as so many kids toys which was a really nice touch. Wonderful location within walking distance to the beach and old town, while also being car accessible with lots of parking. Would definitely recommend!

A lovely apartment with a beautiful view. Tomas was responsive before and during our stay. We appreciated the cleanliness of the apartment and how well equipped it was. We also liked how we could walk to cafes, restaurants and markets. There is also a train station in town and we used it to explore other villages and even went to Spain!

The apartment is nice and spacious. The terrace not overlooked is a plus even if the sea view is limited. The building is well secured. The rooftop pool is small but offers a pleasant space after a long day of sightseeing. The view is beautiful.

Perfect location, easy walking distance to everything that Lagos has to offer with an excellent view from the top floor balcony. The space was on the small side but more than enough room for what the two of us needed, and everything was very clean and comfortable. The shower had great water pressure and temperature. The only negative was that there’s a strong smell of cigarettes from the neighbor’s place both in the hallway before walking into the room and sometimes on the balcony, but it is perfectly clean and no cigarette smell inside the apartment. This small detail was obviously outside the control of the owner and we had a perfect stay in Lagos at Rainer’s place! The location cannot be beat and the apartment was perfect.

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!

To use just one word to describe Jan home: wonderful! If you are looking for a peaceful place, close to nature and away from busy cities then this is your place to stay. It has everything you'll need and perhaps Jan you'll do his best for more if needed. To us, his home was a piece of heaven and it did reminded me of my grandparents place when I was a young and spend the time summer holidays with them. Here you have orange trees and all you have to do is to pick one or two and enjoy them. Oh, I shall not forget Odin (the Cat). He gave us a big welcome in the first day but because we made the mistake not to allow her inside he completly ignored us during the stay. We had the 2nd chance on the last day when he joins us a for a breakfast! :-) Things to mention: you'll need a car (not a low small car but rather a mini SUV perhaps) as it's not close to a bus or train routes. Good Wifi receptions. We will return for sure as there is so much to see around. Thank you Jan for hospitality!

A lovely place to stay! It felt very comfortable, the design was fun, and we had the best dinner of our trip at their restaurant! Would come again!

This was the best house we have stayed in around the Aljezur/Arrifana area. This was our 3rd visit to the area and we stayed at Marta’s on a friends recommendation. There are even peekaboo views of the ocean. The house is non-corporate in every good way. There is an ancient piano in the living room - and it was correctly tuned! There is local art and the furniture is not just ikea cheap stuff. The kitchen was well stocked and clean. The area is great - kind of in between two different beaches. You can drive 3 minutes to a bunch of restaurants or walk 10 minutes to a few others at the roundabout. We did a run in the morning and there’s even a lake about 5 minutes away. All very peaceful, no traffic. We would happily stay here again.

We liked everything about the stay in casa Mimosa. It sure isn’t a place to party, it is a location to enjoy peace and quiet. Casa mimosa house is divided to two halves, but it isn’t a problem at all - there is enough privacy and terraces are located separately. The house is well equipped and clean. Lovely garden that you can explore freely. Sometimes there is a baker who brings fresh bread to the reception area. Prem welcomed us kindly and took us and our luggage to the house, recommended local hiking trails, restaurants etc. It was wonderful to relax in total peacefulness, the sleep quality was epic.

I've stayed at Anabela's a few years back and loved it that I came back this year. Anabela is lovely and she has uograded her place in the kast years with apool area. I love the remote Location and the mood around her place, Its is cosy with many places to hang out in hammocks. You can BBQ, there is even a Pizza oven. I can only highly recommend this charming house.

Casa Gaisma was paradise in the mountains, located in between fruit trees with only sound of birds and the dogs in the valley communicating with each other. Gaisma and Jörg are really friendly and helped with everything we needed. The two dogs living next door were like a family to us, always coming over when we got home after the daytrips and there in the morning to say good morning and seeing if we were having something good for breakfast that they could get a taste of 😍 The surrounding is filled with fruit trees that we could picked off and enjoyed. The bed is comfy and we asked for a fan to get a little bit better air in the bedroom over the nighttime. We always had geckos and frogs in the outdoor space - the frog even jumped in my hand 🤩 and one night we had the adventure to have a visit from a scorpion (wich Gaisma helped us with because we are not used to them). It is just a short drive to visit the beautiful beaches all around and the small towns in the mountains. Loved it
