The Algarve and beyond
Villas in Portugal
Portugal pairs Atlantic beaches with a gentle pace and excellent food and wine. The Algarve is its best-known villa destination, with golden cliffs, long beaches and a long season.
Beyond the Algarve, Comporta's rice fields and dunes, the Douro valley's vineyards and the coast around Lisbon offer other ways to experience the country.
