The property was clean, fully equipped and Ana was there for any help or questions needed. Obrigada Ana!
Anabel the property owner was easy and a pleasure to communicate with ! Thank you!
Would highly recommend this place and hope to come back one day soon!
I had a nice stay and the host was very accommodating even when my plans changed and I needed a place to keep my luggage. The host communicated through my entire stay.
This is where you should stay! Everything was clean, well-organized and the location was spectacular! Tucked away in nice, quiet, authentic Benagil, you will be away from the crowds and able to enjoy the quiet of the beautiful surrounds.

Very clean, spacious and perfectly located, a short walk to the Benagil beach. Both Annabel and Ana were very helpful throughout our stay, was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! The rooftop terrace is also a hit for sunset dinners.
Thank you!
We had a lovely stay. We were close to the kayaks and the beach . It was a short drive to the next town. We were happy to not be in the busy areas of resort areas. This place is a gem. I would return!
Our family of three had a great time. This apartment was easy to locate and centrally located to a few restaurants and beaches. We enjoyed hiking and exploring the beaches and caves. Ana was our contact on the ground - she was very nice and even got a drain fixed ASAP after reporting that was not working well. Would definitely stay here again!
Great location, central to Algarve. Ideal to have a car. Property manager was helpful and responsive to questions. Walking distance to Benagil kayaking excursions. Appreciated convenience of onsite pool
We loved that we could be on the hiking trail in less than ten minutes. The woman who manages the property was so helpful and accessible. We felt as though we had made a real find.
Ana greeted us warmly and the house was overall a comfy place to stay. The toilet situation was a bit inconvenient ( no flushing of paper) but understandable. A bidet would have been helpful. Thanks for all!
Excellent experience, the apartment is spacious very well equiped, there we even beach parasols at our disposal to take to the beach and this was the cleanest vaca rental I've ever stayed at. Thank you Ana. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to visit southern Portugal.

3 days in the apartment was quite enjoyable. Sorry the weather was not warm enough to enjoy the very nice pools and rooftop terrace. We made one walk down to the Benagil beach and up the other side to the O'Garve restaurant which was excellent. Ohterwise used the well equipped apartment kitchen for meals.
The house is beautiful and very comfortable. It has everything you need and more! I have spine issues and the beds and furniture were very comfortable. Very quiet condo. 5 minutes walking from the Benagil beach, and 15 min walking from Carvalho beach ( beautiful). The housekeeper Ana, was very friendly and helpful. Accommodation 100% recommended!

Thank you Ana. Delighted that you so enjoyed your stay in our holiday home & really appreciate your positive feedback.
The communication and check in process were excellent. The apartment was even nicer than I had hoped for and is a nice relaxing place to stay.
We didn't have hot weather (mid - high 20s C) but the temperature in the apartment was always comfortable.
The town of Benagil is small/quiet but the great beach does get busy as everyone else comes to visit. This beach is only a 2 minute walk from the apartment.
We had a great, relaxing time and will be going back.

Overall true to advertisement. Great pool, very clean and comfortable. Very responsive host as we locked ourselves out almost immediately. More towels would be great. Town plumbing was special to town and not allowed to flush toilet paper should warn people about that prior to arrival. Close to things and overall had a great stay!
Not the best place we have stayed, street lights next to the second bedroom made it light all night, there is NO A/C which made our stay the last three night most uncomfortable. Would not recommend.
Everything was perfect. The house i very clean, confortable and very well equiped, with washdishes, washing machine, microwave and much more. We slept very well, the beds are great and you can find available pillows and duvet. Nice terrace for relaxing breakfast moments, pool for the hot afternoon. In a couple of minutes you're in the beach, and walking 10 minutes you can find one of the most romantic beaches, Praia do Carvalho. Perfect, we're just desappointed not dedicating more time to this peaceful place.

About the host
Hosted by Annabel Needham
We live in the UK and have enjoyed family holidays in Benagil for 30 years!
Why they chose this property
It's beautiful all year round, close to the beaches and away from the hustle and bustle of the larger resorts but also just a short drive away from sport activities and places of interest. Benagil is now very popular in high season but retains its unique charm. There are many places to get a delicious lunch or supper. In the evening the village is very quiet and it's a bonus to be able to walk to the excellent, varied places to eat and enjoy freshly caught fish and local dishes.
What makes this property unique
1. Unbeatable Location – 2 Minutes from Benagil Beach & Sea Caves Very few apartments are this close to Benagil Beach, one of the most iconic locations in the Algarve. Guests can walk to the beach in minutes and easily access the famous sea caves by kayak, SUP, or local boat tours – no car needed! Ubers and Bolts are easy to organise if required.
2. Private Roof Terrace with Sea & Countryside Views Your exclusive rooftop terrace is a rare find. It offers guests the chance to sunbathe in privacy, dine outdoors, or simply unwind with panoramic views of the ocean and surrounding fields – a major highlight not found in most nearby properties.
3. Small, Peaceful Complex with Lush Gardens Located in a quiet development of only 14 privately owned apartments, your home offers peace and personal space, surrounded by mature flowering shrubs – ideal for guests who want a tranquil base close to nature.
4. Family-Ready With Thoughtful Touches
5. Versatile for All Travel Types Your apartment suits a wide variety of travelers: • Couples wanting a quiet romantic escape • Families looking for comfort and activities • Hikers and nature lovers exploring the 7 Hanging Valleys Trail • Beach enthusiasts who want car-free access to a world-class beach
6. Local Insight & Hospitality Your hands-on local team (Ana & Annabelle) adds a personal touch, with friendly support, local recommendations, and spotless cleanliness. That kind of service is a big deal in an era of hands-off rental management.
7. Adjacent Parking Spaces Private parking space just a few steps away from the front door.
8. Accessible Amenities 10 minutes to InterMarche, 15 minutes to Aldi, Apolonia
