Villa vacation rentals in Praia da Galé

What a fantastic week! We stayed at Villa Luz 37 – Terrace, Jacuzzi & Swimming Pool in Albufeira from May 27th to June 3rd and what a wonderful experience it was! Communication with Guilherme was exceptional: fast, friendly, and always helpful. The villa exceeded our expectationsL: spacious, stylish, and fully equipped with everything we needed. We truly enjoyed the jacuzzi, the swimming pool, and the peaceful terrace. The hospitality, facilities, and service were outstanding. A well-deserved 9 out of 10 and honestly, it could have been even higher. Thank you, Guilherme, for an unforgettable stay!

Our stay at this villa was fantastic! The new outdoor kitchen was amazing, and the heated pool made it extra special. The Arkeo team went above and beyond, even installing a fence to keep our small child safe from the stairs. The location is perfect, and the elevator was incredibly convenient for our luggage. One thing that really stood out is how much better the villa feels in person—it’s elegant and understated in the photos, but the space, design, and atmosphere are even more impressive when you’re actually there. Although our stay was too short, we can’t wait to come back for a longer visit. Highly recommend this villa for a luxurious stay in Quinta do Lago!

Exceptional setting, quality home with hosts with onions (French expression😂! ) We are fortunate not to have shared the facilities because we were almost alone on the premises: Hammam, Jacuzzi, Massage , pool , Sauna 😍 The Villa is isolated from the rest of the city but ⚠️ be careful there are 2 or 3 additional lodges. In any case Mitchel and Selina are really great, respond quickly to the group's questions, adapt very quickly too and are smiling and full of nice little touches: breakfast several times, welcome beers etc ... Thanks again And I can't wait to come back in a few years to see the improvements that have been made to this little corner of heaven 🥰

Absolutely perfect stay — 10/10! This was the ideal place for a visit to the Algarve. Rosa was hands down the best host I’ve ever had on Airbnb. From the moment I booked, she went above and beyond. Before I even arrived, she sent a detailed guide with everything I needed to know about the property, plus amazing recommendations for local restaurants, sights, and hidden gems. The home itself was spotless, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a fantastic stay. I truly couldn’t recommend this place more — I’ll definitely be coming back!

Excellent villa with an excellent host! would use the villa and Kinga again in the future. Thank you Kinga for the warm welcome and the unexpected welcome pack with groceries. Very easy to communicate with when needed! Thank you again. The Stewart

Casa Mu is a beautiful home with zen like qualities and an expansive view. We were staying at the house during the black out. Matthijs reached out to us while the cell towers were still live and came by to open the gates manually so we could get back to the house. Yannick stopped by later in the day to give us updates. The home has a Big Green egg and we had bought charcoal the day we arrived so we were able to cook dinner. Thankfully power was down for only a short time. Casa Mu has one of the best equipped kitchens I’ve ever seen in a rental. We bought oranges and limes from a roadside stand and made fresh juice using the electric juicer. Beds are super comfortable and bathrooms well equipped. I would suggest bringing bar soap for the shower. There were 7 of us and we had plenty of room to hang out both inside and outside the house. The pool is not heated, but I did go in. A bit bracing, but not too cold. For food shopping, go to Apolonia in Lagoa. Great store that has all you need

Sergio and Maria were great hosts and very responsive with any questions, issues, queries faced. Had a couple issues with 2 of the AC units but they had the matter sorted in a timely manner. Very nice house, very modern, and had a nice home feel to it. Facilities were brilliant, and the pool and outdoor area were very nice. Only thing I would note is that the house is quite far from any amenities, shops, restaurants, etc., so would recommend renting a car as it can be annoying having to taxi everywhere.

Our first time traveling with our new baby so we had a lot of questions, Nuno was super responsive and helpful. Place was great, would definitely return and recommend

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.

Gorgeous beach just a little walk away. Town is very nice w beach bars etc. house has awesome views. Views when in pool are not good due to wall. Suggest to maybe put up acrylic wall? Host was super responsive. We loved our stay at this very large house!

We loved our stay in Benagil. The house on a cliff overlooking the ocean was amazing and peaceful. We hiked to the beach and along the cliffs from the house and we took day trips by car to nearby towns. The house was large and pristine. Marco was very responsive and provided local recommendations. We couldn’t have asked for a better trip.

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.

Olhos De Agua is situated at one end of the Falesia beach a beautiful 6km walk from Villamoura. The villa is very close to a supermarket, local beaches and lots of great cafes and restaurants. It's less than 10 mins into Albufeira too. The villa is very spacious, the rooms are large, the beds are comfortable and clean. Getting around is easy by bus or Uber. Carlos was very attentive, he allowed us in early and out late. We had one problen which he was unable to fix with the air con upstairs. If you are large group and want a spacious villa with your own pool and a pool table and table tennis this is a great option. There is a building site over the road, thet were bricking when we were there so it wasn't very noisy

Blue Hill Boutique and Antonio have been fantastic. The villa is first class and the photos are an exact likeness. It truly made for a luxury stay and we will absolutely book again. We are a family of 2 children, 2 adults and the villa is both private, peaceful and very secure. The layout of the villa is perfect with every bedroom opening up to the pool. Olhão harbour was a favourite for gelato when we could convince the children to have a break from the pool. Antonio’s hospitality is first class and nothing was too much trouble and appreciated, especially the welcome bottle of rose

What a fantastic property and location. We had high expectations from the photos and price, but they were met and more. Modern with all of the amenities: cooking essentials, beach gear / toys, towels, beers if you're lucky the previous guest didn't finish them! Wendy and Manel are very responsive (when asked - not interfering!) and I am so glad they have shared their home with us for a week. We've walked the coastal path on past visits and wondered what it would be like to live in one of the villas right next to it... Now we know and want to do it again!

amazing villa. had such a great 5 days here. villa is stunning and hosts were excellent. swimming pool was a lovely temperature and villa was exactly as described. we would love to stay there again! only slight negative was it was very hot and although there was no air conditioning.(which we were aware of) the fans in the bedrooms could be a bit better!

My friends and I had a wonderful long weekend in the villa. The house was just as imagined and the pool and outside area exceeded expectations. It was a beautiful and quiet location. There is an Aldi a short walk away for all food and we got taxi’s via Uber to visit the Marina and the old town. The taxi’s were really quick and a good price. They were very responsive to messages before the trip and for the check in details.

Perfect stay in this lovely Villa. I stayed with my pregnant fiance and the walk up the steps from the main square is not so bad, she was well able for it. Villa was great, no complaints at all really and it's so close to the main Old town square (5 mins up steps) but it's also not loud at all. Viktoria was very helpful getting us checked in. Will be happy to stay again next time in Albufeira! Really can't say enough about how convenient the location is!

I cannot praise Antonio and this villa enough! It saved our holiday. We contacted Antonio after our original villa booking was not suitable, so we desperately needed somewhere else to go. We luckily found this place and it was perfect! Firstly Antonio was amazing, we took a taxi from our original booking and met him at the local Supermarket which is just around the corner from the villa, so he could show us the way. Once inside he showed us around and how everything worked and gave us some good restaurant recommendations. He left us a bottle of delicious wine from his own Vineyard, a lovely detail after all the stress. The villa itself is stunning, nice big pool, big clean rooms each with a bathroom, which suited us and our 3 teenagers. The beach is a 2 minute walk and has a really chilled surfy vibe. There’s a pizza restaurant on the walk to the beach which is superb. Next door to that a cool little bar/cafe and at least 5 really good restaurants on the beach. 100% will be back!

We stayed at this property for three nights with my children and parents, and it was perfection. Everything was brand new and top quality. You could tell there was a lot of attention to detail when designing / refurbishing the space. Stefanie was super-responsive and it was a breeze getting in and checking-out. We hope to stay there again when it warms up so we can use the breathtaking pool area. 10/10.

We enjoyed a wonderful stay. The Villa was perfect, very spacious, especially the garden! The location is very private but you can walk 10/15 mins to the shop. We didn't have a car but used Uber which was so easy and reasonablly priced. Highly recommend Gale Beach it was beautiful. Nuno was a great host, very easy check in. I would highly recommend the Villa and will look forward to returning again.

If you are looking for a beautiful location to unplug and relax, look no further than Bernardo & Laura’s place. The photos don’t do justice to the breathtaking views. Their place is in a very peaceful and quiet spot in the mountains; while still being only about 35 minutes from the amazing beaches of the Algarve. We were a group of 6 people, including 2 young kids, and we always felt very comfortable in the spacious accommodations. Laura was super responsive and helpful in all of our communications and was able to accommodate an early check-in, which we appreciated after a long flight. We would definitely recommend this home.

Sylvia was a great host very quick to respond to anything we asked about, and very friendly and obliging where ever possible. The Villa is exactly as described and very clean, comfortable and relaxing, it’s location is also great, and is well placed for visiting Silves, Tavira, the end of Europe and many other beaches, although you would need a car to do this but they are well worth a visit. The area also has some lovely restaurants and is also easy for shopping for food etc. There are many many orange and lemon groves in the immediate area and there is a beautiful smell that comes from the orange/lemon trees when the breeze blows. I would definitely go back again in the future all in all a really great holiday.

We were a group of 4 friends that were looking for a quiet relaxing villa . We were lucky enough to find this one away from the hussle and bustle but a short ride in a taxi if we wanted a bit more life . Was a great villa nice and quite also very secure . We all totally loved it . Would definitely use again. Jose was also an amazing host nothing was to much trouble available 24hrs a day !!!!! (Not that we needed him) Thank you Jose
