About this property

Welcome to our apartment in the stunning coastal village Benagil, Algarve.

Welcome to Neptuno 1! Our family apartment is bright, spacious and comfortable - perfect for a family holiday or short break/base while exploring this beautiful part of the Algave. It is literally minutes walk from the beautiful Benagil beach.

The front door opens to a large lounge/dining area with patio doors onto a spacious, south facing terrace with steps leading up to an additional, large roof terrace. From the roof terrace there are views of the sea to the front and fields to the back. We have 2 sunloungers on the roof, also a table and chairs.

We have a full fitted kitchen off the dining area with oven, hob, microwave, fridge freezer washing machine and dishwasher.

A small hallway from the lounge/dining area leads to two spacious bedrooms. The main bedroom has a double bed, wardrobe and chest of drawers. The second bedroom has twin beds and a singe sofa bed, wardrobe and chest of drawers.

The family bathroom, off the hallway has a large bath with overhead shower and a separate shower.

The apartment has a private parking space for one car. It is one of 14 privately owned apartments, which are located on the road heading down to the beach. The apartments are surrounded by beautiful flowering shrubs. There is a shared swimming pool and paddling pool with sun loungers to use around the pools, a shower and stunning tiled seat with views across fields.

Our apartment is located on the edge of the village of Benagil, just 5 minutes walk to the stunning beach where the famous Benagil caves are located. Benagil village nestles on the cliff tops either side of a small ravine, leading down to its beautiful beach where you can swim and explore the caves in one of the local boats, kayak or SUP.

There is also a beautiful cliff top walk to Marniha beach or Carvelho beach in the other direction. This forms part of the coastline's infamous 7 hanging valley trail. The village offers a perfect base for a lovely holiday or short break with a handful of excellent locally run restaurants offering traditional Portuguese food.

It is just 10 minutes drive to lively Carvoeiro or the quaint market town of Lagoa. The apartment is close to golf, tennis, shops, potteries, waterparks, bars and numerous restaurants. With its renowned quay-side sardine lunches you can enjoy the fishing port of Portimao, also close by.

For families we have a high chair and a pull out sprung bed is safe for 2 year old upwards as has arms so won't fall out! There is also a cot available on request.

Our apartment is managed by Ana who is super friendly and helpful and is kept beautifully clean by Annabelle.

We hope you’ll love the apartment and area as much as we do!

Mittelmäßig
Das Apartment war weitestgehend wie beschrieben, die Lage in Benagil war ok. Die Wohnung war zweckmäßig mit genug Geschirr und Besteck, Wasch- und Spülmaschine sowie einem Induktionsherd ausgestattet. Leider gab es auch ein paar Mängel. Das Bad ist innenliegend ohne Lüftung! Das Toilettenpapier darf nicht in die Toilette gelangen und muss in den Mülleimer! Die Einzelbetten knarren sehr, was die Schlafqualität stark beeinträchtigt. Außerdem tummeln sich gerne Ameisenstrassen im Haus. Alles in allem ist das Apartment zweckmäßig aber nicht unser Standard. Man sollte vorher wissen, was auf einen zukommt.

Great place! Great very responsive Host and onsite property manager. Very Modern and clean facility, well equipped for a weeklong stay! Great pool and kiddie pool. Facility arrangement of 2 bedrooms, 2 twin beds in each was perfect for our family size of 2 adults and 2 kids under 12. A few things to note: AC would be a great addition to the unit, help keep it cool on hot days while keeping bugs out and outdoor noise minimized. This is a busy little area near the very active cave tours. Tour buses of kayakers are frequent. All in all a great stay and would recommend!!!

Our stay in Benagil
The accommodations were exactly as shown. the owner Annabel and the property manager Ana were great to deal with. The suite had everything you could possibly want for cooking, and we made use of the washing machine after being away for 2 weeks already. The location was perfect for what we wanted, a 5 minute walk for the kayak tour, and a 5 minute walk to hike the 7 hanging valleys trail. We used our rental car to explore other villages.The was no air conditioning, but we were able to cool off with the bedroom fans. The pool was so peaceful after long days of exploring. We really enjoyed our 4 nights here, a highlight of our 23 day vacation.

Beautiful house
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.

Best ever! First, the outdoor spaces.Nice ground floor patio. Huge, your very own sundeck on the roof. Immaculate landscaping and a very nice clean and inviting pool. The apartment was beyond spotless, with a very well appointed kitchen. Nice bath with a large tub and separate shower. Bedrooms were large and comfortable beds. Great wifi. This apartment has everything you would need. Annabel the owner is the best at communicating. Precise directions and great ideas for things to do in the area. Ana, the manager is so welcoming and helpful. She will greet you with a bottle of wine and a booklet about the apartment and area. Extremely accommodating. There are many places to eat great hiking trails and beaches nearby. We havr stayed at many different places over the years and this was our best experience The apartment, Annabel and Ana all deserve 10 stars.

Feeling at home in Benagil.
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.

Beautiful apartment
Our stay was very enjoyable. the apartment was very clean, spacious and welcoming. Rose met us and also was welcoming. The pool looked wonderful, but because of the wet, cool weather we were unable to use it. The location was good, a bit far from the ocean and Tavira, but we were aware of this. It was quiet in the area. Very well equipped kitchen. Supplied washing machine and dishwasher soap. Everthing was good and we would highly recommend.

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!

Lovely house in Benagil
We were very pleased with our stay at the Neptuno Apartment. The house is cozy and spacious, everything was clean, and the kitchen had the basic things. Communication with the owner was easy and quick. It was also great to have Ana greet us and give us some recommendations for places to eat. Having the pool just round the house, and also the upstairs terrace and the lovely sitting area outside the living room added an extra bonus to our stay. Benagil is a lovely place, the beach is close, just down the road, but it's a small one, so we preferred Praia do Carvalho, Praia do Vale de Centeanes (just a short car drive), and for an evening stroll or gelato - Carvoeiro is a must!

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
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

Parking is now very difficult in Benagil but we have a private space just a few steps away from the front door.
