Places to stay in Portugal

I can’t recommend Tiago’s place enough! It’s a beautiful and spacious place, about 10 minutes walking distance from the beach and the downtown area. The house is equipped with EVERYTHING you could ask for. From basics like enough towels (even beach towels) to the kitchen that was fully set up everything was available! Tiago was super responsive and we even had the pleasure to meet his dad for a moment. 10/10, highly recommend!

Our stay was short, but it was well worth it. The house is very well equipped, with all the necessary accessories. From the kitchen with several utensils, the bathroom, stocked with gel and towels. It's a really nice place to go. We had a mishap with the car, but the hostess helped us quickly, we appreciate all the effort to all those who managed to save the car ☺️

Excellent stay for several in family with children. The area is beautiful and well maintained, the swimming pools are pleasant to cool down during heat waves. The hospitality is perfect; the price in season can be scary initially but the house, the estate and the kindness of the employees justify it. We'll be happy to go back! Thank you Ines (and Angela)

This is a great accommodation. Well equipped and squeaky clean. Good parking close by. Bed was comfortable. Kitchen had all necessary supplies. We were there in cold weather and it had nice heat to keep us warm. Would definitely stay again.

Great stay as a family at Catarina. We spent 3 very comfortable nights in her house. Anna-Paula's hosting was very warm. The neighborhood is very quiet and it is necessary to have a vehicle to go shopping. We loved the lagoon which is a 5 minute drive.. Beautiful place where you can safely swim in less cold water than the ocean. Beautiful area and deserted by tourists at this time of year. Recommended!

Housy 2 was fantastic. Great location between downtown Cascais, Sintra, the sea and the mountains. local restaurants, site seeing. Candida met us at check in and explained everything as well as provided recommendations on things to see and do. We were greeted with pastries and wine! The home was well equipped. Candida even checked on us halfway through our stay. Highly recommended. Would stay again. Candida is not just a Super Host, she is a Super Star !

Everything was perfect. The host is very kind and attentive. We felt very comfortable and the house is as described and cozy. We were very happy. We would definitely come back.

When the wildfires created anxiety and uncertainty about our stay in Casa Rustica, Elisabete took care of everything; she provided a safe haven until there was no further risk in the Rossas area. Thank you so much, Elisabete, you did everything to reassure us and make us comfortable. As for Casa Rustica, it's absolutely wonderful - gorgeous pool, Jacuzzi, relaxing living spaces and a well-equipped kitchen; the garden is lush with fruit and there are beautiful views from the balconies. Thanks to Sandra, too, for a great show-around and providing on-the-spot help if needed. In a nutshell, all fab!

This Airbnb was lovely, clean and very well stocked. One tiny complaint was sometimes noisy, this however had nothing to do with the host.

I am satisfied with the location and the cleanliness of the accommodation. The host's response was quick. The hot water came out well. This is the place I'd like to stay again if I come again.

We are very happy to have chosen Joana's apartment, there were four of us: two adults and two teenagers. First for the quality of its service and fast and concrete communication, its very professional attention. We felt like part of the family. We were sure to get a quick response to each of our requests. There weren't many because she had informed us well before our arrival. Then the apartment is very nice, comfortable with lots of charm. Finally the location is exceptional, all the attractions of the city are within a radius of max 15 minutes walk. This location had a crucial influence on the success of our stay. Even on the street where the apartment is located there are a multitude of shops, cafes and restaurants. We felt safe during our entire stay at Joana's place.

We felt very comfortable in the apartment. In particular, the location is great. There are not only plenty of shops nearby (including organic shops), but also a market hall and on Saturday weekly markets. Everything is in walking distance. The public transportation options are also around the corner of the house. Frederico is very accommodating and takes excellent care of his guests. The apartment corresponds exactly to the pictures. The water pressure in the bathroom is very good and it also gets really hot.

Cristina is an amazing host and what Airbnb is all about. She (and her husband) went above and beyond to help or solve whatever situation arose. For example, when there was longer-term construction in the same and neighboring building (which is pretty much over now), they talked to them to help me understand the duration (so I could plan since I work from home) and keep them within good hours. Obviously, it was beyond their control, but to me, it shows how much they care about their guests. The apartment is always spotless and in a fantastic area of town. And the balcony is fantastic on a beautiful sunny day. Thanks again to Cristina and Vitor!

Great apartment, has everything you need. Very clean and tidy. João was friendly in communicating with me and explaining everything very clearly. Highly recommended host

Cute apartment with a very nice little balcony located a little away from the historic center (15 min walk) but with a metro station nearby (heroismo). Warm welcome, Bruno was waiting for us in front of the building. Very nice neighborhood with supermarkets, a nice cafeteria for breakfast (Pao Fofo- Largo de Soares dos Reis 38), 2 popular good and cheap restaurants (Pao com recheio - R. de António Carneiro 99- menu at €6.50 and Marinho coffee - Rua do Heroísmo 243 - excellent pizzas). Otherwise for fish, we highly recommend the Meia-Nau restaurant in Matosinhos R. Heróis de França 375, Matosinhos, easily accessible with the metro - delicious octopus and grilled sea bream).

we stayed 4 nights in this apartment, and visited Porto almost exclusively on foot. the metro station is 150 meters away for those who want to get around by public transport. 3 bakeries 5min walk to have hearty breakfast, and several restaurants on the street of the apartment. we really enjoyed our stay! (Street a little noisy at night because a lot of cars are passing)

Guiomar was very responsive to my messages. The house is close to many, many excellent restaurants and a couple minutes walk to the beach. Also, it's in easy walking distance of a major supermarket and the train station. The place, including the kitchen, is well equipped for a large group. It well-facilitated our multi-generational family vacation. The light and view from the top floor and patio are lovely, I enjoyed the sunrises. My grandchildren enjoyed the winter ferris wheel overlooking the sea and the merry-go-round in the park.

Monika was an amazing host. Very friendly and super responsive. We loved the house and its unbeatable location right on the beach. We were 3 of us, which was perfect. Wouldn't recommend this place for more than 4 guests due to its size and the fact that you have to share one small bathroom. Overall I would absolutely recommend it as a cute little beach house with an unmatched beach setting.

Andre’s place was GREAT! We loved our view and the place was super nice. The place was easy to find if you read the instructions and Andre is very thorough with instructions. The place is a bit chilly in March and the hot water doesn’t last long, but all other amenities made up for this! Great local restaurants and recommendations, and he even left us a bottle of wine and cookies! Thanks Andre, we loved our time and highly recommend the place. 😊

Wonderful location right next to the beach. Made mornings and evenings magical. It was. Very close to Faro itself and the airport, so travel was easy. Excellent little home away from home. Perfect for couples and solo travellers.

The most beautiful place I have stayed in Portugal. I can’t wait to go back. Beautiful cozy cottage on the cliffs with spectacular views. Very good standard.

Asa’s home is a great spot for a family vacation, it is very comfortable, located in a peaceful complex with a beautiful pool and in close proximity (walking distance) to a beautiful beach. The children enjoyed the home so much as it also had a small playground next door to the house. There were two other areas also within a walking distance with restaurants and other beaches. All in all greatly recommended. Thank you for the beautiful visit. 🤍

we had a really good time! sea view and everything close by. the appartment has stairs, and i was happy to have warm socks. its beautiful and tje communication with marco super easy. we will definitely be back :)

The house looks just as on the pictures. It is beautifully furnished and equipped with everything you may need for a perfect holiday on Madeira. Right next to the sea with a little "swimming pool" and parking space just next to the house. Location: center north part of the island. Perfectly situated for all excursions (Levadas, coastal villages, Funchal,...). Surfing spot at 200m, if you are into surfing Constantino's house is the must stay for you. Need to know: it is on the north, less sunnier side of the island and you definitely need a car. Restaurants, bars, small groceries and wine stores nearby though. Constantino was the perfect host, communication was easy, welcome was warm, we got a lot of useful tipps and even sweets and Madeira wine as welcome gift. If we look for negatives, hard to find any. Except perhaps that on rainy days one bedroom was a bit damp. We were only 2 so no problem. Did we miss something? Maybe a coat hanger near the door ;-) A 100% recommandation.
