Vacation rentals with a kayak in Alentejo

we had a great rest from the long move. the view from the kitchen window to the green hills and meadows is simply charming, it is especially pleasant to open the window and admire the opening landscapes over morning coffee.

The place was idyllic and peaceful. Very suitable for two adults and two dogs. The fence surrounds a beautiful yard and the apartment was wonderfully personal. The fireplace burned trees every night because the evenings were cool and it brought a lovely vibe. Carlos was super when he brought us more trees when we ran out of firewood. The photos matched the apartment and yard well. It was a good value.

Great place to enjoy the location. Great house in a great location.

A superb house in an exceptional setting and a welcome worthy of a palace with a giant local buffet and extremely kind hosts Definitely to be done again

Our group of 13 had an incredible time at this lakeside house! The accommodations were super comfortable, providing ample space for all of us. The highlight was definitely the fantastic outdoor area, perfect for group gatherings and relaxation. Nuno, the host, was outstanding. He went above and beyond to ensure our stay was memorable. We took advantage of the boat rental for water sports like skiing, wakeboarding, and wakesurfing, and it was an absolute blast. Nuno's expertise and equipment made it all possible, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. If you're looking for a lakeside retreat with a fantastic host and plenty of fun activities, this is the place to be. Our group had a fantastic time, and we can't wait to come back for more adventures by the lake!

It was a magnificent stay. Artur is a great host and a friend. The house is very onita and comfortable, with excellent quality beds and fresh rooms, even in the middle of the Alentejo summer. It's a great place for a large family or group of friends. You live around the pool, in the shade, or in the sun, overlooking a plain out of sight. We visited Mértola and the Alqueva dam easily less than an hour by car. Would highly recommend. Thank you Artur!

A nice place if you have a car

John was a great host. Extremely friendly, communicative and helpful. Apartment was also lovely

The Quinta Dos Cochichos is a wonderful little spot on earth, lovingly maintained and in an absolutely quiet environment, yet you can quickly get to Olhão or one of the beautiful beaches of the Ria Formosa. The owners Paula and Marc are there when needed, and otherwise wonderfully unobtrusive, friendly and lovable. There is what is described, no beautified descriptions or photos - honest and authentic. We had a very nice time and would highly recommend staying there.

We spent a night during our bike trip and it was very nice to rest, enjoy the ocean (very easy by bike) and cook! We particularly enjoyed the fresh vegetables, eggs, and bread available by hosts!

Sandra and Fausto were excellent hosts. The cottage was exactly like the pictures, very charming with lots of space both inside and out. We especially loved the great hot showers after a day on the beach! The cottage is very quiet with great sunsets on the terrace. The beach umbrella came in very handy! There are several good grill restaurants close by on the main road. It is under 2 kilometres from Olhão which has several excellent supermarkets and only 25 minutes by car from the airport. And close to some fantastic beaches. This part of the Algarve is so much better than on the other side of Faro. A great 10 days in a lovely place with super hosts.

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.
