Perfect for a family getaway by the coast, this bright and breezy villa in Albufeira boasts sparkling sea views – best enjoyed from the private balcony over a bottle of wine, although the vistas are visible from many rooms inside, too. Some of the bedrooms are a bit of a squeeze, and the balcony is the only outdoor space, but with Túnel beach just fifty metres away and a great selection of beachfront eateries to enjoy, you’re likely to spend most of your time lapping up the Portuguese sun away from home.

  • No time for average – We reject thousands of homes worldwide, so you don't have to.

"We have used Plum Guide a few times and have always found the places we stayed and the Plum Guide service excellent from start to finish. Recently we rented an apartment in Venice. The apartment was perfect for our needs - well appointed, comfortable beds, right number of bathrooms, lovely kitchen and living areas. The location was also perfect for us - quiet neighbourhood but close to everything - quick access to 2 vaparetto stops and easy walks to almost everywhere Plum Guide service was, as usual, excellent"

With more than 300 days of sunshine per year and over 100 beaches dotted along its coastline, the Algarve is one of Europe’s most popular holiday destinations. The party scene is alive and kicking around the capital, Faro, Albufeira, and Praia da Rocha should you want it, but there’s so much more to this sun-baked corner of Portugal than the high-rise resorts of the coast’s centre.
