Vacation rentals with beach access in Pêra

Likely the best location in Algarve if you are looking for a quiet stay. Apartment is nice, clean, well located, nice balcony, Kitchen is well equipped. We were expecting something upscale and trendy but it was a bit dated, however it is still very nice and very much above average. We could easily have spent 2-3 weeks here ! Armacao de Pera is often an overlooked beach city for a stay. It is quiet VERY quiet (except dog barking), everything closes around 10PM. But you still can get ice cream and a cold beer at Gelatos upto mid-night. Then if you need wild animation Arbufeira and Portimao are within 15 min ride. (Uber cost only 12-15 euro to get backhome). Then the best part is the beach : right in front of the apartment. It is the best soft sand beach in the area and its temperature is above the coast's average. We LOVED this place.

We stayed at Peggy’s condo for 3 overnights. She was very responsive and clear with instructions about finding the condo and how to gain access. The condo was very well equipped and the upstairs rooftop views were spectacular. There are walkable restaurants for all Meals. You can walk to the walking section of Lagos. We drove as we had a rental car and are seniors. There is a local beach nearby- driveable. We used Peggy’s place as our base and went out and explored the beautiful Algarve every day. I highly recommend as the condo is exactly as described and Peggy and Rupert are fantastic hosts. The condo is also very clean and well maintained.

Antonio’s apartment is beautifully renovated, modern, spacious and comfortable. It is just minutes by foot to the old town and beach, and yet quiet in the evenings and night. Antonio was extremely good host. He met us the apartment, explained everything we needed to know to enjoy our stay and had suggestions for restaurants and activities in the area. We had a very enjoyable stay and would highly recommend this apartment if you’re visiting Albufeira.

We had a wonderful stay at this apartment! The absolutely stunning sea view is breathtaking, and the long sandy beach just across the street made it easy to enjoy the seaside every day. The location is fantastic—full of great restaurants and even places to rent bikes, so you can easily explore the beautiful coastline on two wheels. The apartment itself is clean, fresh, and modern, with all the kitchen appliances you need to cook comfortably. The bed is really comfy, and I loved that there were some books and even table games available for relaxing evenings in. The host was very responsive and helpful throughout my stay. Overall, I highly recommend this apartment for anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable seaside getaway!

The apartment was exactly as pictured—modern, clean, and comfortable with beautiful views. The location was walkable, which made exploring the area easy and enjoyable. We appreciated the responsiveness of the host and the thoughtful welcome gift—it was a lovely touch! The recommendations provided were appreciated. That said, there were a couple of things that could be improved. Directions to the apartment were a bit tricky to follow, and the 6 PM check-in time felt quite late compared to my experiences over 8 years of staying in Airbnbs around the world. We were surprised to find that some necessities weren’t provided. For a 3-night stay with 4 guests, only 4 coffee pods and a few mismatched tea bags were available, which seemed more like leftovers than intentional provisions. There were also no paper towels or basic cooking staples (beyond salt and pepper). Overall, we had a pleasant stay, but a few small improvements could make the experience even better.

Wir haben zum 2. Mal unseren Urlaub in dieser tollen Strandwohnung verlebt und die Gastfreundschaft von Mark genossen. Die Wohnung liegt für unsere Bedürfnisse perfekt: Zum einen liegt dieser wunderbare Praia da Falesia "vor der Tür", zum anderen erreicht man mit dem Auto schnell den Westen und den Osten Portugals, um andere wunderschöne Orte an der Algarve zu entdecken. Bars, Restaurants und Supermärkte liegen in unmittelbarer Nähe und es gibt auch eine hervorragende Cocktailbar mit Tapas, um einen schönen Sommerabend ausklingen zu lassen. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.

Host was very responsive & met us to walk us into the place. The photo for check in needed updating, it’s now at KK’s Thai Massage for a more accurate entrance area, but we rented a car and had free parking right in front (limited but got lucky!) Place was very clean and the balcony was the perfect spot for our morning coffee and resting at night. We walked to all the shops, pleasantly surprised just how much there was to do around! We ate at Terrazo Italian, incredible food! Beach was beautiful, definitely don’t suggest having a large suitcase tho for parking or elevator access :) Otherwise host was super nice, place was super clean & definitely bang for the buck for an air bnb.

Joana is an exceptional host and her place has so much charm and character. We immediately felt at home in her peaceful retreat. Joana stocked the refrigerator and provided a welcome basket with all kinds of treats which was so kind. The house was so cute and comfortable, had all we needed and we enjoyed the luxury of a private pool. The house is conveniently situated to Old Town and we were able to walk there & to the Ponta da Piedade boardwalk hike. Thank you Joana for sharing your spectacular home with us and we totally recommend your place to others!

Isabel‘s place was so lovely. Nicely located everything was in walking distance. She did a great job of giving us suggestions of things to do. So welcoming! Very comfortable place, worked well for us! Thanks Isabel, hope to see you again.

La maison pour débrayer, dans la simplicite, ressourçante. Elle est très bien équipée en vaisselle, linge de maison, on a l’împression d’arriver chez des amis qui ont tout laissé à disposition. Le grand plus est cette belle plage à 2 pas . C’est juste passé trop vite

Very large villa set in a very private setting. Great for a family holiday with private pool and massive outdoor spaces. Bedrooms were large and had plenty of storage. Kitchen was very well equipped, although a number of items are now quite dated and would benefit from updating. Very quiet and peaceful setting - great if you want to get away from it all! But also 7-10 min drive to beach and local town/shops. Bella was a kind and responsive host. She replaced the toaster on the same day we told her it wasn’t working. A fantastic place. The only criticism i have is that the upstairs bedroom area (with the two single beds) smelled very musty. We stayed in another AirBnB in Lisbon and it had the same issue so I wonder if high humidity levels are a factor. There were air fresheners placed around but if you have a sensitive nose then this would be a problem for you.

I’d love to write a review but due to an error with my passport, we weren’t able to fulfil our holiday. What I do want to do though I’d thank Helena for her understanding and communication. She was genuine and sincere and I know if we had of made our holiday, it and Helena would have exceeded all our expectations. We look forward to booking again once we sort out passport issues. Thank you Helena for all our communication.

The view itself is worth staying at this place. We loved listening to the waves as we fell asleep and loved waking up to an incredible view. Even while showering you can look out at the ocean. It was clean and has the bare minimum necessities. I think this spot on the interior has potential to be much cuter and a little better stocked, but we still loved our stay. We spent our afternoons on the deck tanning and loved how all restaurants, bars, and beach were all walking distance. This town is adorable!

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. 🤍

Wir hatten eine tolle Woche an diesem wunderschönen Ort. Es ist ein rustikales Häuschen mit herrlichem Blick auf die Wellen von Arrifana. Das weiße Rauschen war absolut entspannend und der ganze Ort total entschleunigend. Hugo war sehr reaktionsschnell und alles lief reibungslos. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

We stayed here for a week and it was perfect! The beaches are only a 15-20 minute walk away or a 10 minute bike ride! Definitely recommend that. The house is great and the garden is beautiful! The plunge pool was perfect for the hot days! I would 100% recommend this place :)

Maria was a great host and so helpful with anything requested. We had an issue with the lobby entrance of the building and she resolved this by communicating with the building management. We had a great time in the accomodation and felt relaxed for our week abroad with the children

Cannot say enough about this place-would recommend every time. Walkable to fantastic restaurants and shopping, view is unbeatable. The pool was an added bonus after a day of sightseeing! Easy to access hiking, ocean activities and shops to stock up on provisions. Maria and Robert were very helpful and responsive hosts. Stop looking and book!!

Une vue exceptionnelle, un appartement parfait, beaucoup d’espace, accès facile à l’appartement,au marché et au restaurant! C’était superbe! Il y avait beaucoup de travaux dans le secteur ce qui ne nous a toutefois pas embêté mais ça justifie notre évaluation du quartier. Hôte très très réactif!!! Nous avons beaucoup apprécié son support lorsque nécessaire! À recommander vivement!

Die Wohnung ist sehr gemütlich und geschmackvoll eingerichtet, es fehlt an nichts. Paulo reagiert innerhalb kurzer Zeit und ist freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit. Die komplette Anlage macht einen sehr guten Eindruck. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und können diese Anlage und Wohnung zu 100% weiterempfehlen. Vielen Dank

Great apartment. Great location within the old town of Lagos. Bars / restaurants and also good proximity to the Beaches. apartment is spacious and airy with outdoor space. Comms were excellent with our host. Easy to get in/check out. Highly recommend. Thanks!

We loved staying at Marlene's place! The location can't be beat. The views were amazing and we enjoyed the easy access to the beach and the walking trails along the cliffs. We found the walk to town totally doable (10-15mins) with also a few restaurants even closer (Mar, Luca's rooftop, etc.). The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked. We would definitely stay here again.

João was a fantastic host! He personally greeted us to tour the room and let us know his little “tricks,” and gave us ample recommendations. We had lots of room in the apartment and it was within walkable distance to everything. Old Town is a fantastic place and there’s lots to see, and his apartment is right in the center of it (but enough on the outskirts that there isn’t too much noise). Very much worth our stay and we will recommend him for future travels!

We had a fantastic week at Anita’s apartment in Praia da Rocha. From the moment we arrived, we felt incredibly welcome – Anita and Antonio had left a generous guest pack including ham, cheese, wine, milk, water, biscuits and crisps, which was a lovely and thoughtful touch after our journey. The apartment itself is bright, spotless, and has spectacular views across the beach – which, pleasantly, wasn’t too busy during our stay. The location is excellent, with a great selection of bars and restaurants just a short walk away. Anita and Antonio were outstanding hosts – friendly, responsive, and clearly committed to making sure their guests have everything they need. Their detailed information pack was really helpful, and they were always quick to answer any questions we had. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this apartment – it’s a perfect base for a relaxing stay in Praia da Rocha. Thank you, Anita and Antonio, for your warm hospitality and kindness!
