Beachfront home rentals with a pool

Luz Do Sol 3 bedroom 3 bathroom beach house
Home from home! Very spacious for a family of 5 with everything you could need and quality furnishings. This is the best location in luz 100m from the beach but very peaceful and private. Beautiful trees surround the property where we enjoyed the spring birds singing as the sun went down. I was worried as it didnt have 5 stars but i needn’t have as it is def a 5 star place. See you next year and I will book earlier this time 👌

Ocean View Beachfront Apartment Porto de Mós Beach
Kasia has communicated great with you, it is only a few minutes walk to the beach and a few minutes by car to the center. Kitchen well equipped and the apartment clean.

Nice Beach House 53m to the beach
We had a great time! The property was spotless and very peaceful. It was in a lovely area, a short drive to Benegil cliffs which was amazing. Very friendly and showed us around/gave loads of recommendations of places to go and eat. Any questions we had were answered very quickly with no problems, and they even left a welcome hamper for us which was lovely. I look forward to the next time!

Villa Alvor 7 by amcf
Had a great week long break, the Air BnB was perfect and the pool is much bigger in person then in the photos.

Oasis 5 Modern luxury beach villa
Beautiful villa with pool and outside area including bbq. Loads of space for kids to play. Great location some really nice restaurants and bars all within walking distance. Rabbbit Beach is very close to the villa 5-10 mins walk. The old town is 10 mins in taxi and if you use Antonio (who did our transfers) him or his lovely wife Rosa can pick you up when needed. Manfred and Tracy were great hosts very helpful and give very good information regarding the local area for food / drinks etc. Villa is perfect for a group loads of space and eating / chilling areas - couple of shops within walking distance. Overall great stay.

Villa Azure Bliss; Seaview. Private Pool & Jacuzzi
Magnificent Manifesting! We had the most wonderful stay in this beautiful villa. Outside area was absolutely gorgeous and well maintained. Lovely outside cooking and dining area which we used a lot and the sea is much closer than appears in the pictures. Kitchen was well equipped and the local shops are an easy and beautiful walk to pick up any additional extras. Close to lovely restaurants and bars filled with friendly people and staff. Luz is a wonderful location to explore the Algarve however a week is not enough as there is much to see and do 😉. Just a note that the access to the pool area would not be conducive to someone with mobility issues but is beautiful. Something that everyone really appreciated was the very positive water pressure 😂 seems like a small thing however weirdly it matters. I would not hesitate to stay again or recommend this villa to friends and family. Ideally located, with charm and character in a beautiful location, sea breezes and with a fab host 🙏

Apartment with a swimming pool
The accommodation is one in a quiet area, a little set back from the historic center. But a 15-minute walk will allow you to get there. The pool is very nice… and the accommodation is coquettish. Manuel and Gloria are very attentive...all discreetly!

Casa del Mar - Amazing Villa w/ Sea View & Pool
A lovely place to stay. Close enough to walk to everything you need. Great restaurants and local spar or baptiste. Will definitely come back x

Spacious villa with sea view and heated pool - Luz
This place was magical. Amazing views, great restaurants and easy access to everything! Very responsive host and everything was well kept and clean. I highly recommend to anyone vacationing in the Algarve and hope to be back soon!

Seaside Bliss: Urban Ease & Cozy
We stayed at a number of very nice Airbnb‘s during our trip to Europe. The hosts were great. But none were as attentive and considerate as Valentina and Antonio. As a result of our own GPS, it took us a little bit to find the apartment, and Antonio came and met us in person to ensure we got in. During our stay, the amenities were wonderful and exactly as described in the listing. Any questions we had on usage of appliances were quickly answered. Partway through our stay Valentine asked if we wanted a linen change and we were provided not only with clean linens, but they were changed and set out for us. We were in Portugal for 12 hours of the power outage (the day before our flight home) António had attempted to provide us with a flashlight and candles and even bread and tomatoes as stores were closed but we were not home. They even offered to bring it for breakfast in the morning, even though power had been restored throughout the night. A truly wonderful host and apartment!

Ocean Front - 3 Bedrooms - Garage - New in Airbnb
A wonderful stay right on the beach. Playground across the street for our granddaughter. Offers everything you need for a relaxing vacation. Great restaurants within walking distance. Highly recommend.

Luz
Very cozy home, with nice view from the balcony (the flowers were in bloom, that added to the experience). The outside of the building did not correspond with the cozy inside. 5 minute walk from the lovely beach, 10 minute walk to the supermarket.

Beach Front Studio
Lovely apartment with sea view, had everything we needed and perfect location for the beach and close to town for dinner and drinks in evening.

T2 (2 En-suites). Luxury on the Beach and in Nature.
Jorge’s place was really a home away from home especially with our three little girls (5, 4, 1.5 years old). Our girls loved the two bunkbeds. It was spacious, super clean & the kitchen was fully equipped with everything you’d need to cook meals but also walkable to many beaches and restaurants; however one of our favourites was the restaurant just below the building! We loved the beach behind the building as well which was only a few minutes walk. We didn’t end up using the pools in the facility but everything looked great! Jorge himself was very responsive, professional and definitely a superhost helping us check-in as we booked this Airbnb very last minutes and got there later in the evening. The shampoo and conditioner in the showers were nicer than the ones I have at home. I highly recommend this place and we would definitely stay here again when we come back to Portugal in the future. Thank you Jorge for sharing your home with us.

Albufeira next to the beach
The townhouse was modern, clean, well equipped and in a great location. Beds were very comfortable. Views from the rooftop deck were stunning and beach was an easy walk. If you love to walk and have no mobility issues, this is the perfect place to be in Albufeira! Host was always accessible and responded quickly.

Cottage with Terrace near Zavial
We can highly recommend Carlos' house. It's clean and has everything you need. We felt comfortable and enjoyed the stay very much. The village is quiet and picturesque. There are many beaches and shops within a short drive. Just perfect.

Unique Clifftop Villa with Sea View & Pool
This is the most beautiful house, in one of the few remaining unspoilt parts of the Algarve coast. It is very well-equipped and there are lovely walks, both in the countryside behind and along the cliffs. A very pretty, and not very populated, beach is a five-minute walk and a slight scramble down a cliff path away. Cecilia is incredibly friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

House with sea view, garden and (almost) private beach
The location is a dream for those seeking peace and quiet. Sunrise around 7:30 was a perfect start to the day and then the sun warmed up during breakfast. In the evening, we used the oven every day, so it was cozy and warm (wood available - thanks for that!). For the bathroom in the morning there was a small electric radiator, because the night temperatures fluctuated from 6 degrees to 12 degrees - so it was quite fresh in the morning. We enjoyed the time here very much, also always chatted a little with Andy and Astrid, who take care of the grounds/house very lovingly.

Oceanfront Fortress Villa
Mario’s place was exactly as described in the pictures, a slightly quirky apartment in an older building with a fantastic balcony… aka my new favourite place. It’s a perfect location, steps from the beach. We enjoyed our time there very much. Thanks Mario for being a super host.

3 bedroom Beach House in Luz
Kingdomar’s place was perfect. Our family of 4 stayed stayed with another family of 3 and we had plenty of space. The location couldn’t be better, right next to the beach and restaurants. The house was very clean and stocked with all the essentials. We would highly recommended the place.

Two Bedroom Beach Front Apartment Albufeira - 5
Apartment with all the necessary conditions for a good stay, with a nice terrace, indoor and outdoor pools. Great location with access to a small beach, possibility to walk to other beaches. We really enjoyed our stay, we will certainly return. Lisa is an excellent host.

LuxuriousVilla for8-PrivatePool&BBQ-Beach10minWalk
Pedro is an amazing host and is highly recommended as he is very responsive whenever you message him! He helped save our trip by letting us check in after 3am. Local recommendations are provided at the house, it has a very spacious common area, quiet and safe neighbourhood and amazing pool! Only downside is the women of our group think he is too attractive. 😂

Nautilus – 2-bedroom apartment with pool
It was what we expected, since being in the center of the Algarve, we were able to move in both directions and visit almost everything.

#1 Beach House ♡ Ocean View ♡ Rooftop ♡ AC ♡ WiFi
Marina's place in Albufeira was amazing - just as listed! In a quiet, walkable neighborhood directly above the city restaurants. Easy access to everything in town and yet so quiet! This place was perfect for our family of 4 and my two daughters enjoyed having their own bed but staying in the same room together. Marina's communication was great - great instructions in accessing the place, and guidance around the unit. Not being too familiar with induction stovetops, I contacted Marina for some help and she was immediately responsive. The kitchen had everything we needed and the addition of a Washer AND Dryer was much needed for those beach days - of which we had several! Upper floors are nice and had amazing views of the surrounding area, I can understand why Albufeira is so popular. Our family made use of the provided beach toys as well as beach umbrella and beach towels, all very nice. Make sure to try the Tres Coroas restaurant just steps away!
