Lovely villa in a beautiful spot

The villa is in a beautiful area, nearby beaches are wild, clean and not overcrowded at all. The pool was perfect for chilling, and the villa was a great base.

Relaxing holiday

We had a really nice stay. Everything is available in the house and close to a great beach: never crowded and great waves if you like surfboarding or bodyboarding. Although we did not meet Kate in person due to our late arrival, she provided us with all the info needed to visit, eat, shop etc!

Villa located near stunning coastline.

The property had everything you might need, was clean and comfortable. You need to drive as the nearest restaurant/bar/beach are a good walk away and there wasn’t any public transport/cabs. The welcome was great and the local manager available for any queries. A very relaxing stay helped by a lovely clean pool.

Perfect for outdoor enthusiasts. Very close to the undeveloped dramatic western coast and its many hiking trails.Quiet area with lots of privacy.The house is spacious and comfortable. Nice views from the front outdoor sitting area while you watch the sun rise and a large relaxing pool area behind.

Great villa rental!

Four of us recently spent 5 nights at Sandhills - wish we had booked more! We found the villa to be very comfortable and well equipped and only 5 minutes drive to beautiful Monte Clerico beach. It is also well located for several other beaches and restaurants and places to visit. We loved relaxing by the lovely outside dining/BBQ area and pool and would definitely recommend as a base for exploring the Aljezur area. A big thank you to the owners for letting us rent your home!

Wonderful vacation home

The house is quite large and very well equipped. We didn‘t miss a thing during our two week long stay. Kate, the property manager, was very kind and helpful and provided several links to places to visit or shop at. Highly recommended.

Well equipped, great outdoor area and good location. Cleanliness could have be improved. Unfortunately, we also had mosquitoes hatching in property which we only worked out towards the end of our stay. Making it not as pleasant as it could have been.

Response from VrboOwner on 27 Aug, 2025
I’m so sorry to hear stay has been anything less than perfect. We pride ourselves on our consistent 5* rating, so perhaps you could message me privately about your issues with cleanliness. With regards to the mosquitos, I’m also sorry to hear that; it’s been a very hot summer so mosquitoes are likely. Having said that, the house is light and airy and not normally a haven for them. We also have nets at the bedroom and bathroom windows and plug ins in all rooms to further mitigate against them. I’m terribly sorry that they affected your stay.

Great holidays

It was a very good week, with an excellent location and an outdoor pool to enjoy the summer days. The house is well equipped, however some small things could be improved, namely the availability of the garage for parking (since there is a car parked there) and some of the green doors on the outside do not close. However, it was a pleasant week.

Villa near Monte Clerigo beach

Sandhills is a spacious, well laid out and well equipped villa in a very quiet area with stunning beaches. The villa felt a little dated and in need of some TLC in places. The outside space could benefit from some new furniture (table and chairs) and some weeding around the pool area would make a huge difference. Host was amazing responded very quickly and sorted an issue with shower immediately. None of the above points affected our holiday, we still had a lovely relaxing time. And loved the sunset at the beach.

Tolle Lage, toller Pool, gute Kommunikation mit dem Gastgeber. Das Haus hat einen tollen Aussenbereich, ist aber innen keine, so wie angegeben, moderne Villa. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet, aber etwas in die Jahre gekommen, ebenso die Betten, bzw. die Matrazen. Die Betten waren für uns leider nicht ausreichend, aber das Schlafempfinden ist ja subjektiv. Vom Haus aus ist mit dem PKW alles gut erreichbar, Bäcker, Supermärkte, Restaurants, Strände. Auch zu Fuß kann man in 20 Minuten an einen schönen Strand laufen.

Unser Aufenthalt in Sandhills

Sehr positiv war der sehr kurze Weg ans Meer und zum wunderschönen Strand Monte Clerico mit nur 2 km. Somit konnte man am Abend immer sehr spontan wunderschöne Sonnenuntergänge genießen. Was wir die ersten 2 Tage etwas unerfreulich empfanden war, dass sehr viel Verkehr direkt am Haus vorbeifährt. Das war so nirgends zu vernehmen . Dennoch sind wir gerne nach unseren Ausflügen in das Haus zurückgekehrt. Das Highlight ist definitiv der Pool
