Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Alentejo

Charming country house close to the Portuguese coastline. Claudio and Sofia were very attentive hosts always available to respond to questions and offered some great local recommendations. Beds were very comfortable and kitchen was well-stocked for cooking at home.

After a week of hotel stays it was so nice to decompress in a home and do laundry! It was just the 2 of us and the space was much more than enough. A bigger party would be very comfortable. Appreciated the welcome email which included instructions on how to use all the appliances. Request- add in a true American coffee maker. The fact that the home is completely updated added to our comfort level. There are great spaces to relax and we enjoyed what the home offered and loved the showers. This location in Central Portugal is in a sleepy hood. There is a corner market but it doesn’t offer much. Arriving late, we were able to get a few essentials for our first morning such as milk & bananas. The 2 towns we decided to day trip to were Coimbra & Aveiro. Both are approximately 1 hour away. While it was a bit farther than I hoped, it was a nice chance to see the countryside & the A17 is so easy to drive. We were quite impressed with the freeways. Would consider a return with more guests!

Fabulous house for a group or large family. Everything is so beautifully done and Melina is obviously an interior decorator because the small things mattered. Same single problem as every other reviewer is "the bells" {of the church, Igrela de Mexilhoeira} but Melina cannot do anything about that. Great accommodation, great location, great hostess.

Candida was lovely and at check in, gave up local knowledge and tour of house, which was clean and very functional. They had a hair dryer, nice when traveling to not need your own or worry with voltage and a small space heater which was nice for our unusually cold days. There's two bedrooms, one with a comfortable bed (not too firm or too soft) and one that was a bit thinner and softer, so you have options! There was an induction stove top and microwave with a convection feature, good for warming things though probably not good for baking. The only con was unfortunately the towels and sheets are washed in a strongly scented detergent-common for Portugal but still bothersome. The location has great parking very close and free and is in a lovely neighborhood.

A yun and super helpful, always ready to help with some doubt and respond quickly.

We had a great time - thank you!!

We had an amazing stay at Vila Rafa! The house is clean, large and practical. The kitchen is very well equipped and the garden is a peaceful oasis (which is also safe for children - away from the busy street). Rafael has been a wonderful host: discreet but always available when we needed some tips to get around. We definitely recommend staying here!

The house was in a perfect location Just outside the wall and close to awesome places to eat and shop. It was raining when we arrived and we’re we’re cold, Hugo went out of his way to bring us more firewood and made sure our stay was comfortable. Beds were comfy too!!!

Had an amazing stay here. It started with the fact that, despite my arrival in the middle of the night, I was personally welcomed and given a room tour. The apartment itself is beautiful, very nicely decorated, clean, furnished with everything you need and located in an urban area with many small, good restaurants and shops. From here you can easily reach everything on foot or by public transport. Ana Maria & Miguel were very helpful and friendly, always communicating proactively.. I would book again anytime.

Just finished 4 nights at this Air BNB. Would highly recommend. Host was helpful from time of booking. Very comfortable for 4 adults and a 2 yr old. Well stocked kitchen, close to metro and grocery store. Treats in the kitchen upon arrival was such a nice touch!

The host was awesome. He welcomed us with bread and wine, iced tea, juice and breakfast foods. The place was very clean and beautifully decorated. The bed was comfortable. I would highly recommend a stay here especially if you are needing something close to the airport. Thank you!

The property is great for exploring Lisbon. You can quickly get to the city or Cascais by train, which runs very regularly. Check-in is self-contained. Ana is always available and sends a lot of information and tips. The apartment has everything you need. We felt comfortable and are happy to recommend it.

Laura's place is really personalized and has great decor. We loved the quiet but walkable neighborhood and the friendly market down the street. Check-in was easy and we had everything we needed. The kid's room was amazing! We would highly recommend.

Loved my stay in this spacious, clean, welcoming condo! Tanja and the building staff were very helpful, the kitchen was one of the best-equipped of anywhere I've stayed, the apartment included thoughtful items like umbrellas and guidebooks, and the location was great. The bed was comfy and the wifi was fast - couldn't ask for a better base to work remotely & explore the Algarve!

Great stay in a great location!

Matilde and Luisa are a lovely couple and take care of their guests. Their Airbnb was exactly as described and was a great location. Perfect for 1 or 2 people.

big and modern apartment with great views and has everything you need for a stay in the algarve. Easy walk into the old town and by car can easily visit beaches and other towns. The kids loved the pool so a big tick for families or anyone just looking to relax for a few days.

Wow!! What an amazing place! One of the best Airbnbs I have ever stayed in! The photos don’t do it justice! So much nicer!! Super clean, tastefully decorated, very well equipped, fantastic rooftop terrace, and gorgeous beach views! The location is fantastic, literally a two minute walk to the beautiful Meia Praia beach. Carolina is so friendly and was super attentive during our stay! Highly recommend and will definitely be back soon!!

We stayed for 3 amazing whole weeks and felt completely likely home. The decoration is very cozy, it has everything you need to cook, to relax, the TV is high quality, the internet works perfectly for remote work, the bed is comfortable, the house has lots of natural light with a great view. Julian is very responsive and the printed book with tips and suggestions was a great touch. The only bad part was having to leave. Very recommended!

I travel a lot and this was one of my favorite Airbnbs. The location is amazing! Right next to the beach and boardwalks along the cliffs. Small mini market only a minute away and about 10-15 min walk to Lagos town. The check in procedure was detailed and easy to do (although I was supposed to check in on Tuesday evening but my flight was delayed so wasn’t a problem to check in Wed morning) The place is well stocked in the kitchen if you want to cook like we did. The bed was super comfortable and we loved hanging out on the veranda. I thought the price was great for all that the place offered and again - loved the location for peacefulness and quiet Our host was amazing. From the moment I booked it until checking out this morning, she couldn’t have been more helpful and clear instructions on everything We were sad to leave this morning but I will be recommending this place to family and friends and gets a well deserved 5 ⭐️ in my opinion

Vladimir is a very good host. He always helped us and also gave good tips in the area. He brought an extra gift for our 3 children and us. The accommodation is ideal for families, even with the use of the indoor pool just great. The complex itself is for families 1 A. Thank you Vladimir to you and your family.

It was great time , great place and great Rui. Apartment really clean and has everything that you can need. We have breakfast at home( all equipment at your service), for lunch and dinner we choose every time different restaurant and enjoy best food . Beach just couple minute away. Spain and Portugal was so nice even at off season time. We think our vacation in Manta Rota at Rui's apartment was good idea, hope to do this again!

Nina was lovely responded quickly and even met us at the apartment with clear instructions how to get there. The apartment was so clean and comfortable we had everything we needed and more. I would definitely recommend to book this place, there were 5 of us and we all have so much space. Beautiful relaxing pool and sun beds and walkable to amenities and the strip. We had a great time and we will definitely come back

We had a wonderful 2 week stay at Ines’s apartment. The location is a short walk to most restaurants, cafes, grocery stores and of course, the beautiful beach. It’s located very centrally in Albufeira and Old Town is approximately a 20-25 minute walk. The apartment itself had everything we needed and was clean and well maintained. We especially enjoyed having a balcony to sit out on in the mornings or to enjoy a drink after a long day of exploring the area. Ines was wonderful to deal with and was very prompt to respond to any of our questions. I would definitely recommend staying here and hope to one day return to beautiful Portugal!! Such a lovely place!
