The view is spectacular if you have a room with a sea view. Original room that we got was huge with enormous terrace, but no view. After first nights we we moved to the sea view room and it was amazing. The downside was the size of the room, but view was worth it.

Gorgeous location and great facilities, pools, beaches, the garden. We had a wonderful family reunion, and the villa allowed us to build life time memories of sharing meals and laughter on the two terraces, spend quality time together surrounded by flowers, trees and so many types of birds. A paradise in the sunny and beautiful Algarve.

The little town of Porches itself is of no interest whatsoever.
Supermarkets and restaurants are all located in or near the village resorts in the neighborhood.
And there are nice harbor towns in the vicinity with good sea food restaurants.
From the neighborhood of Porches many interesting trips can be made by car or by boat.

House was excellent, very well equipped with everything provided and more extras. Air conditioning was great, pool and grounds were perfect.Had a barbecue every night on upper terrace with stunning views. Location was lovely close to beaches and short walk to supermarket and lovely town. Host was very welcoming and went out of her way to help us. Will definitely return and didn't want to go back home, could have lived there forever.

Whole Algarve is simply wonderful.
Whole Algarve is simply wonderful. I especially recommend to visit cities like Lagos, Faro and beatiful beaches around Porches. Car, or taxi services needed if you do not prefer long walking (my preference).

After driving through the area quite a bit I felt that I just liked the environment of Porches a bit better. It’s pretty central in the Algarve, which allows for trips to Faro or the west coast, or anything in between.
We liked everything! Christophe and his staff were warm and so helpful. The location for us was perfect as it wasn’t right in the middle of a highly touristy beach town but the closest beaches were easily walkable and beautiful.
The breakfasts were awesome and we did our best not to miss the tea and cake served in the late afternoon ! And the wine bar was excellent- just for guests so it was really intimate and a great way to meet other guests. In short, Christophe, Sophie and staff provided an experience we will not soon forget!!
This is a really nice apartment. it is well equipped and comfortable. The owners were also very nice and when I asked for a high chair on the first day it was brought to us soon after. The apartment has a lovely outside terrace to sit and enjoy a meal or a drink in the evening. It is also close to a few nice restaurants and a supermarket and is about 15 minutes from the beach. There is also a pool with 2 allocated sun beds which we used for a quick swim in the afternoon.
Location was very good; next to a few beautiful beaches and other cities like Portimao and Albufeira are easily reachable if you have a car.
This llittle house was big enough for the entire family of 9 people with enough bathrooms and kitchen was well equiped.
Outdoor space is great as well with terrasses and green space downstairs for the kids to run around.
Kids loved the swimming pools as well.
This place is beautiful!!
The hosts are amazing!
The bed is so comfortable too
I would 100% go again and anyone looking for a villa style place instead of a huge hotel this is the one!
We also went kayaking from here and horse riding I think those 2 are a must when visiting.
Me and my female friend had such a lovely time and the jacuzzi is lovely :)
Thanks guys for having us :)
Set up, 3 large bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, location, access to idealic beach within a few minutes, 10 mins walk to shops and restaurants. Roof Terrace was a nice touch, we used it post dinner, for cards and enjoyed the night sky. Kids only used the pool a couple of times, it was fine, it was just that the beach and sea were such a nice area, mainly locals which was nice to see.
perfect location. very clean accommodations. it’s my first time to visit Algarve and I found the place location is the best on the coast .
thank you Laura for your worm hospitality. the host will send you all you need in the area. recommendations for the activities in all Algarve area.
I highly recommend this villa and the host as well
Overall our stay was lovely. But the place needs a lot of renovation. The biggest issue we faced was thin like paper walls. You could hear absolutely everything from the outside as well as your neighbors. If you have a car, it is a convenient place to stay cause you can drive everywhere in 10-20min (the beach and the towns nearby).
The best location on Algarve. Very nice neighborhood. For us 4 for 3 nights was perfect. Big rooms with balconies, a big bathroom and a big kitchen. Quite comfortable sofa bed. Missing only a wardrobe in a living room (when there are more than 2 guests) and some hangers for clothes or jackets at the entrance (on the hall).
It is a nice and cosy Apartment, with everything you need! Monica was really nice and kind, and the swimming pool was very close to the Apartment. It is a pieceful and beautifull place, the location is perfect (close to the beach and central in the Algarve). We can really recommend this apartment, we had a great time!
Fantastic Villas, beautiful grounds, we enjoyed the pool area, especially the serenity at this place, well equipped apartments/villa, fantastic amenities, e-bikes etc…
Friendly Staff, great breakfast, everything is close by, beach, restaurants, supermarket…
One of the most relaxing places in the Algarve.

Hosts were very friendly and made our stay very enjoyable. Well located allowing us to easily explore the Algarve. The villa was very spacious and well kept. It has a very nice vibe of well being allowing you to enjoy the sun and pool as you please. A haven of tranquility.
Location…close to the beach. That someone personally met with us to view the property and give us the keys. Reserved a boat tour of Benagil and other caves from the local beach with a resident guide. Well appointed apartment. Washing machine. Market 4 minutes away by car.
We were attending a wedding in Porches and selected this rental because it was close to the venue. We are so pleased with our choice. The villa was pleasant and clean. Lucien was an attentive host who did his utmost to make us comfortable.
Staff was always very nice and helpful. The hotel is very cosy, with an heated swimming pool and pleasant and quiet surroundings despite being located close to more crowded spots. Very nice spot for families
Well equipped with everything you need, clean and the site has that 5 star feel.
Host was very friendly and was on hand for any questions.
The location is perfect for sea views and tranquility
We liked the modern style of the apartment, seeing wonderful full moon at night sitting in the balcony, cool pool nearby, very helpful host, ease of getting into the apartment.
