Algarve holiday apartments and villa rentals.

Algarve is one of the finest places to rent a holiday home, with lots of sunshine, natural bays, beautiful scenery and warm sea water. Portugal’s multicultural history means the Algarve offers a very varied collection of holiday home rentals and great attractions all year round. For those who want to rent a dwelling in the Mediterranean style the West coast west of Faro is ideal – Sagres, Lagos is a good choice. There are endless beaches, nightlife, swimming pools and shopping streets. Those who prefer a more traditional Algarve house should look for villas in Tavira and Silves and inland on the Rio Guadiana to Alcoutim near the Spanish border. These areas offer charming and affordable holiday villas in the old Moorish towns and traditional fishing villages. Along the western Atlantic coast, in the Serra de Monchique, there are also many nice vacation accommodations to suit the more adventurous traveller, because there are lots of hiking and biking trails in hilly terrain.

Booking a Portugal Villa Bargain

The most popular weeks for Portugal villa bookings are the May and October school half terms. In the main summer school holidays bookings for a fortnight are more frequent and in September golf parties are prevalent. To get the best deals you tend to have to go “against the grain” – in the time periods most popular with families, the large properties will be very expensive but in the low period the large villas can be had for big discounts.

Holiday Apartments in Portugese Cities

It’s easy to rent apartments and villas in Portugal’s major cities, in Lisbon, Faro, and Porto – all known to be among the most relaxed and pleasant places in Europe, and also not too expensive. All this makes Portugal the ideal location for a last-minute holiday. Try Holiday Rentals for a huge range of apartments and villas for rental direct with owner.

Here’s our round up of the top websites that like to say yes to villa renters with dogs :

Hoseasons – It’s easy to search for dog friendly villa rentals at the Hoseasons Villas website. They have a special section on villas where dogs are welcome. There are over 100 properties available and you can further refine you search by destination, number of bedrooms, pool, beach location etc.

If you and your four legged friend(s) fancy a trip to Devon or Cornwall, Blue Chip Vacations have a large range of high end properties, many of which (around 170) are dog friendly. Helpfully the Blue Chip Vacations website makes it easy to search for dog friendly rentals too with an easy to use filter system. The Blue Chip Holiday Rentals are a mix of apartments and houses / cottages, many of which are near to pro-hound beaches. A small supplement is charged for rentals where a pet stays which is to cover the extra cleaning costs.

HolidayLettings also make it fairly easy to find villa owners which welcome pets. On their search form under the “Advanced Options” area you can tick the “Pets Allowed” box – a quick check today yielded almost 10’000 properties worldwide so obviously you will have to refine your search with some other criteria too ! With Holiday Lettings you make your booking direct with the owner so there are no specific pet policies. To find out more just fill in the enquiry form at the bottom of any property listing you are interested in and you’ll be able to communicate directly with the property owners.

Then there is Holiday-Rentals who list a staggering 1941 UK properties which are down as “pets considered”. Have a look at the site and then refine your search by destination and many other criteria to find what you are looking for. Like HolidayLettings (above),you make enquiries via their email form direct with the owner to sort out any details.
