BLUE TILE @ AZORES NEST

TheresaRating, 5 stars7 months ago
I can’t recommend Tiago’s place enough! It’s a beautiful and spacious place, about 10 minutes walking distance from the beach and the downtown area. The house is equipped with EVERYTHING you could ask for. From basics like enough towels (even beach towels) to the kitchen that was fully set up everything was available! Tiago was super responsive and we even had the pleasure to meet his dad for a moment. 10/10, highly recommend!

Country house w/ Beach 3 min. by Car - Peniche

CarolinaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Our stay was short, but it was well worth it. The house is very well equipped, with all the necessary accessories. From the kitchen with several utensils, the bathroom, stocked with gel and towels. It's a really nice place to go. We had a mishap with the car, but the hostess helped us quickly, we appreciate all the effort to all those who managed to save the car ☺️

The house was very clean and tidy, and everything was exactly as shown in the pictures. Since we had a car, getting around was easy for us. If I travel to Madeira again, I will definitely book the same house

Big house for 6/9pax in Vila Real

NicolasRating, 5 stars32 months ago
Excellent stay for several in family with children. The area is beautiful and well maintained, the swimming pools are pleasant to cool down during heat waves. The hospitality is perfect; the price in season can be scary initially but the house, the estate and the kindness of the employees justify it. We'll be happy to go back! Thank you Ines (and Angela)

Discover tranquility in a charming place!

DarrenRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Paulo's apartment was exactly as described, was pristine and very well appointed with everything you would have needed for either a short or longer stay. We mostly self-cater for strict dietary needs so we had everything we needed to make that easy. With Portugal going through a cold wet snap we were really cosy, the wood pellet burner was super efficient so only needed for a short while in the evening and morning. the bed and pillows were comfortable. Paulo personally greeted us on our first evening, with the help of Google translate due to our limited Portuguese, but was very helpful and accommodating (they live near for quick support) This is a pretty little town with good amenities, the supermarket across the road was great for us and there is a wide choice of restaurants, though limited opening out-of season. The castle and other historical buildings were very interesting and really close walking distance. Over the seasons it looks like there are plenty of events to look out for.

Housy2 between Beach & Mountain

ScottRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Housy 2 was fantastic. Great location between downtown Cascais, Sintra, the sea and the mountains. local restaurants, site seeing. Candida met us at check in and explained everything as well as provided recommendations on things to see and do. We were greeted with pastries and wine! The home was well equipped. Candida even checked on us halfway through our stay. Highly recommended. Would stay again. Candida is not just a Super Host, she is a Super Star !

Rustic House with Pool & Jacuzzi -Arouca Portugal

BarbaraRating, 5 stars6 months ago
When the wildfires created anxiety and uncertainty about our stay in Casa Rustica, Elisabete took care of everything; she provided a safe haven until there was no further risk in the Rossas area. Thank you so much, Elisabete, you did everything to reassure us and make us comfortable. As for Casa Rustica, it's absolutely wonderful - gorgeous pool, Jacuzzi, relaxing living spaces and a well-equipped kitchen; the garden is lush with fruit and there are beautiful views from the balconies. Thanks to Sandra, too, for a great show-around and providing on-the-spot help if needed. In a nutshell, all fab!

House of Santo André

Karen and steveRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Great location, minutes walk from the waterfront and grocery stores, 3 restaurants within a few feet, museum across the street. The house is spotlessly clean, exactly as pictured larger than expected. Isabelle greeted us with the keys and there was a lovely basket of coffee, tea and local cookies. There is a private garden off of the kitchen. The home is over 200 years old with thick stone walls and beautiful tile work. The bed and pillows are comfortable. Although it is on a busy street, the thick walls and hallway help it stay quiet. The walls impede the WiFi signal, so if you are a remote worker and rely on stable WiFi throughout the house, it might not work for you. The hosts have tried to remedy this w/ 3 separate WiFi systems through the house. The weather was damp most of our stay and the living room with heat on smelled musty. I suspect better weather would remedy that. Although we had to cut our stay short, we did experience incredible hospitality from the hosts.

Porto Cozy Apartments

JpRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Cute apartment with a very nice little balcony located a little away from the historic center (15 min walk) but with a metro station nearby (heroismo). Warm welcome, Bruno was waiting for us in front of the building. Very nice neighborhood with supermarkets, a nice cafeteria for breakfast (Pao Fofo- Largo de Soares dos Reis 38), 2 popular good and cheap restaurants (Pao com recheio - R. de António Carneiro 99- menu at €6.50 and Marinho coffee - Rua do Heroísmo 243 - excellent pizzas). Otherwise for fish, we highly recommend the Meia-Nau restaurant in Matosinhos R. Heróis de França 375, Matosinhos, easily accessible with the metro - delicious octopus and grilled sea bream).

We really enjoyed our week in Carolina's flat. A great bright flat, super clean. The welcome set with a bottle of wine was great. The kitchen was fully equipped with espresso machine, capsules, toaster and microwave. There is also a washing machine, even with detergent pods. The mattresses are pleasantly hard. Thank you again for everything, dear Caroline 😊 I have already recommended your place to friends.

Your guide to Portugal

All About Portugal

With historic cities, extravagant castles, idyllic beaches, and a renowned food and wine, Portugal offers visitors myriad memorable experiences. In the capital city of Lisbon, you’ll find incredible street art-covered buildings as well as historical landmarks like the 16th-century Tower of Belém — a UNESCO World Heritage site. St. George’s Castle towers over the city, while the spectacular neo-Gothic Santa Justa Lift rises above the rooftops for stunning views. Lisbon is famous for pastéis de nata, custard pastries created by Catholic monks in the 18th century, and people line up out the door of the local bakeries for the delicious treats.

Porto is Portugal’s second city, and its old town — which is a designated UNESCO Heritage site — is lined with cobbled streets, ornate churches, and beautifully tiled buildings decorated with distinct blue and white tiles called azulejos. It’s also the place to sample the country’s most famous wine, port.

On the west coast, you’ll find the narrow streets and opulent palaces of Sintra, while in the north, you can explore picturesque waterways from inside a gondola in Aveiro. The island of Madeira boasts incredible landscapes and charming villages, as well as fresh seafood and delicious Madeira wine. And you’ll find some of Europe’s finest beaches in the Algarve in southern Portugal, with stunning limestone rock formations that tower over the sand.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Portugal

Portugal experiences year-round sunshine, so anytime is a great time to secure a vacation rental in a city or along the coast. Depending on the region, though, the weather each season can vary. In the south, the Algarve enjoys long, hot summers and short, mild winters. Lisbon experiences hot summers and rainy winters, while in Porto and the north, summers are hot and winters can get chilly. Spring and fall are pleasant throughout the country, with warm days and mild evenings.

Portugal hosts festivals and events all year round. Carnivale takes over Lisbon in February with street acts, costumes, and parades. In May, the streets of Madeira are covered in flowers for the Flower Festival. Towns and cities come alive for the Santos Festivities (Celebration of the Popular Saints) in June with parades, traditional street dances, and fresh sardines. And in September, Porto celebrates Port Wine Day, with plenty of festivities spotlighting the famous drink.


Top things to do in Portugal

Sintra

Less than an hour from Lisbon, the town of Sintra features picturesque villas, palaces, and castles. Visit the ancient ruins of the Castle of the Moors, dating back to the eighth century. See the stunning architecture of the Regaleira Palace and Gardens and Monserrate Palace with its subtropical gardens. The highlight of the town, sitting high on a hill, is the spectacular pastel-painted Pena’s Palace — a former summer retreat for the royal family surrounded by lovely pine forests.

Lagos

The Algarve town of Lagos sits at the southernmost tip of the country and features beautiful pristine beaches and the turquoise waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Ancient Moorish walls circle the town center, which is home to lovely squares full of cafes and shops. A highlight is Ponta da Piedade headland south of the town — a series of dramatic cliffs featuring incredible naturally formed grottos and sea caves.

Obidos

In the west, the town of Obidos is protected by an imposing eighth-century fortified wall. Walk through it into the town to find a magnificent medieval castle and ornate churches. The cobbled streets are full of vibrant squares with cafes, shops, and markets alongside whitewashed houses. The town is famous for its Medieval Festival in July, featuring jugglers, wandering minstrels, jousting knights, and a bounty of meat on offer.
