Algarve Villas - Busy Resort Town or a Quiet Location?

If you are looking to spend your holidays in Portugal, we have a wide range of beautiful Algarve villas and apartments to rent in the region’s most popular coastal resorts and in quiet, country locations.

When you start your search for Algarve villas, one of the first questions that will spring to mind is where to stay - just a short stroll from the beach or in a more off the beaten track area.

Your choice of Algarve villas really depends on the type of holiday you prefer. It may be you want a family holiday where your children can swim in the sea, or are holidaying as a couple and plan to relax on the beach, sunbathing or with a good book.

However, beach holidays are not for everyone. You may prefer to stay in our Algarve villas in a village location so you can spend the bulk of your holiday sight-seeing and exploring the local culture, or want the best of both worlds.  Perhaps you are taking a golfing holiday and want to be based near the golf course, rather than the sea?

Whatever your preference, Truly Algarve offer wide range of Algarve villas and apartments to rent in every type of location. Self catering Algarve villas and apartments give you the luxury and freedom to set your own agenda and enjoy all the benefits this beautiful region has to offer.

Algarve Villas by the Beach

Renting Algarve villas in a popular resort brings you many advantages and the main one is convenience. If your holiday rental is just a short distance or stroll from the beach, you can take the children to the coast at any time. And, if you are holidaying with teenagers, as a couple, or with friends and prefer an active holiday by the sea, you can take advantage of the numerous sea sports the Algarve has to offer, such as sailing, wind surfing, and banana boating.

Truly Algarve offers a stunning range Algarve villas and apartments close to the beach, and some of these also benefit from wonderful views. Being based in a resort location means that you don’t need to hire a car to get anywhere and (depending on your choice of resort) the marina, restaurants, bars, shopping facilities, supermarkets and children’s amusements are all on your doorstep.

Here are just some examples of the Algarve villas just a five minute walk from the ocean: Colina Branca Townhouses in Carvoeiro - these two bedroom townhouses sleep four and are within walking distance from the centre of the village and just 600m from the sea. The townhouses share a large pool and benefit from being close to the restaurants, shops and bars.

The superb, modern, three bedroomed Villa Nina, also in Carvoeiro, is located close to the beach and has a private pool. The villa is a just short stroll from some great places to eat, drink, or stock up on food supplies. The open plan landing, which has two beds, has sea views.

Casa do Pateo is a fantastic beach front villa in Albufeira which opens out onto the Praia dos Aveiros beach. It has five bedrooms and sleeps up to 11 people. It has a large swimming pool and enjoys ocean views. Mini-markets, bars and restaurants are close by and the town is a 15 minute walk.

Private Algarve Villas

While being centrally based has many plus points, you can also benefit from choosing private Algarve villas away from the busy resort areas.

Out of town locations mean you can get to know the true Portugal, enjoy a more peaceful holiday away from the hustle and bustle of tourists and the children can make as much noise as they want as they splash about by the pool.

Truly Algarve has villas and apartments in out of town locations so you can immerse yourselves in the local culture. Here is a sample of some of our Algarve villas on the outskirts of the towns or villages where car hire is a must:

Villa Sao Jose is a four bedroom luxury cliff top villa set amidst landscaped gardens on the outskirts of Carvoeiro. The master suite has a jacuzzi bath and enjoys fabulous views over the pool area and the ocean. It is completely private, yet within easy reach of the golf courses and the beach.

Casa Parra is the sister villa to Quinto do Encanto and enjoys secluded accommodation, enclosed by fencing and automatic gates. It is situated 1km from Guia and 6km from Albufeira and benefits from four bedrooms and a large pool area. It has a sun terrace with panoramic views.

Villa Colwood is a three/four bedroom villa enjoying a rural setting on the hillside above Vale de Parra, 4km from Gale Beach and 8km from Albufeira. Despite its rural location the nearest supermarket is walking distance. It has a private pool, barbecue and is set amidst mature gardens.

However you want to spend your holidays, Truly Algarve have a range of villas to suit based in all parts of the Algarve including Carvoeiro, Albufeira, Guia, Vale de Parra, Quinta do Lago, Lagos, Vale do Lobo, Vilamoura and Praia da Luz.
