Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Cercal do 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.

A lovely little cottage that is as beautiful as the photos. We didn’t try the plunge pool as it was late April and too damn cold. A great base for the algarve with beautiful beaches, walking tracks, wonderful scenery

The Casa was very nicely located between orange and olive trees and totally private. Ana Maria and Jorge have provided a large bowl of fresh oranges and a bottle of wine and coffee. The fruit was delicious😋. The hosts very friendly and warm people. At first it was a bit chilly, which was due to the bad weather before our stay, but you could also heat with the air conditioner. It had everything you needed. The house cat immediately greeted us and demanded petting. 😼 We really enjoyed having our privacy there.

Nice house with an absolutely gorgeous view in pictoresque, quiet surroundings. Well-kept pool, nice terrace to the south. Useful fireplace with a good supply of firewood for those chilly early-Spring evenings. In terms of supplies, be prepared to bring just about everything with you. The only things provided were dish-washing liquid, tablets for the dish machine, and two rolls of toilet paper. No salt, pepper, oil or any other usual Airbnb-leftover amenities.

We spent 2 1/2 weeks at Clement's house. It was certainly the best equipped and most spacious accommodation we have stayed in so far in the region. The house was built in 1991 and you can tell that Clement has put a lot of love into it since he bought it. Some things are still in their original condition, which makes it much more authentic compared to many of the retort houses in Espartal. The location is perfect for accessing the region's beaches. The district is a purely residential area without bars or shops, which makes it generally very quiet and relaxed. However, a lot is currently being built here and new land is being developed, so that this may change in perspective. Clement is a very friendly and extremely helpful host who was always available and on hand. If you are looking for an authentic place with plenty of space and do not expect a commercially serviced apartment, you have a chance for a great experience.

We had a great off-season stay in Bordeira. The house is very comfortable with its two sofas, well-equipped kitchen and wood burning stove. The different terraces allow you to enjoy the sun even if in early November it passes behind the hills around 3pm (but just go to the beach which is so close to enjoy longer). We really enjoyed Amado beach which is wild but still offers rentals and surf lessons and cafes. The location is great for exploring Lagos, Sagres and the west and south coasts of the Algarve. The only downside is the dog droppings in this pretty white and flowery village!

We had a very nice and peaceful stay at casa Atejo. It's a place to connect with nature, to deconnect with the ratrace. The house is renovated wonderful, the fireplace is a big plus. It makes the house even more comfy and pleasant. We had a good contact with Boris and his sister by message and by the website AirBnb. Thank you for the wonderful week we had!

Quinta dos Sapos is an amazing place. We were bowled over by the beautiful of the place. Garden area was immaculate and the pool lovely and clean. The location was private and peaceful. A short 5 minutes drive into Silves where there is an abundance of great restaurants and supermarkets and only a 20 minutes to lovely beaches. The kitchen is fully equipped including coffee machine. The barbecue was great for our sardines and local fish dishes. All in all an amazing stay which we would highly recommend.

Great apartments within beautiful mountain range. It was really peaceful and the host were very friendly. Great place for a tranquil family stay.

We absolutely loved this place! We had a warm welcome to our clean and cozy apartment and then fully enjoyed the beautiful surroundings with very nice beaches and villages nearby. We started planning our next (longer) stay here even before we left. Our children also loved it and most definitely want to come back. So if you’re looking for a peaceful, beautiful, friendly, fun and relaxing place to stay - look no further!

Everything was excellent, Emma was helpful at all times, facilitating access and the stay. The house is spectacular, we enjoyed the countryside and the pool and we had Silves 5 minutes away. 100% recommended

Awesome location, views of the ocean, super close to restaurants. Spacious. Gorgeous and big bathroom. Recommend!

We were able to enjoy a few days in Vera's apartment. The apartment is at ground level, large, nicely furnished, super clean, well stocked with everything you could ever need, especially in the kitchen. There is a large courtyard that can be protected from the wind and also very sunny, where you can relax very well on sun loungers, or enjoy your food. It is a short, beautiful walk to the old town center, also about the same distance to the sea. The self-check in and out worked just fine. Parking spot right in front of the house. We will be happy to come back. So highly recommend. Thanks

Brilliant stay, house was perfect for our family. Beautiful and peaceful area. Car is a must for this place. We’d love to come back!

We had an amazing stay in aljezur! Beautiful environment and comfortable space. Pedro was amazing too, he was super responsive and shared lots of local recommendations in the area

Great spot close to Odeceixe and a nice walk to the beach, super quiet and well equipped.

Amazing house with beautiful view! Not easy to find bur when you arrive it’s paradise. Host always available. We will come back!

We had a very nice time at Villa Machado! The location is exceptionally good, walking distance across the dunes you can quickly reach Praia Amoreira or Monte Clérigo, both very good surf spots. With small children (and a lot of smell) you are on the beach in 2 minutes by car. Villa Machado is bright, tastefully furnished/furnished and offers generous space. We were two families and everyone had enough space to themselves. The house was waiting for us in very clean condition, we felt right at home. The weather was already very autumnal at the beginning of October, sometimes very foggy and rainy and we felt that clearly in the house. A dehumidifier is ready for this, despite this you can see the villa (and also feel it in the rooms) that it is constantly exposed to high humidity. All in all it was very nice and we would come back anytime!

Beautiful house 5 min drive to a beautiful beach. The pool is heated but we enjoyed the Jacuzzi and normal fireplace more in November. We were able to eat outside at lunchtime. The environment is very quiet and the house is spacious and very well-equipped. Thanks again to Izabel and Taylor for their hosting, welcome gift and great availability.

Craig is an amazing host, always here to help, very discreet, extremely responsive and flexible and super nice. His house was perfect for us as we stayed as 2 families, very well equipped, with multiple places to chill and relax as the day goes by, the pool is sensational and just perfect with kids. The lightings at night is great, we love the house and its garden. thanks so much Craig for this amazing stay.

Adelino is a superb host and his villa is amazing. Extremely responsive and was able to answer any questions right away. Very spacious, clean, private and comfortable. The smell of fresh rosemary every morning in the beautiful garden was an added bonus. Close drive to grocery and restaurants. Coast line and Albufeira just 30 mins drive as well. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful gem hidden in the deep eucalyptus forest . Amazing and very comfortable house . Ideal for rechargeable vacations . Laura was very kind to proved us with woods for the fireplace . Also they have a very nice restaurant with local food . Thank you we will come back.

Andrew has always been very collaborating. We had a problem with the refrigerator and came immediately to solve it. Space had ping pong, rackets, ball etc. everything that makes a child happy. The space is big and comfortable.

Beautiful villa. Had a great time here with my family!
