12 Best Airbnbs in Sagres

Here we have some of the best Airbnbs in Sagres.

Sagres is the wild and rocky outcast of Algarve Coast tourist towns. Located on the far western tip of the coast, its beautiful cliffs and wild seas have made it a hotspot for surfers.

Sagres is an ideal location for surfing enthusiasts and those looking to experience a more dramatic side of nature such as Cabo de São Vicente known for its high cliffs.

Staying in Sagres can turn a mere holiday into a real experience and here we have collected some of the best Airbnbs to make that happen.

Airbnb might be the most widely known website for vacation rentals but that doesn’t make it the best or the cheapest.  To help you compare we expanded our selection to also include vacation homes from other reputable and well-trusted sites such as Booking.com, Expedia, and VRBO (which is also part of the Expedia Group).  Check and compare, lower booking and cleaning fees make these other sites cheaper than Airbnb.  Enjoy your trip!.

What type of Airbnb can you find in Sagres

Apartments

Sagres features some homely apartment Airbnbs. From standard apartments located right in the center to more up-scale options in resort complexes with shared pools and other luxurious facilities.

These fully furnished apartments usually have a balcony where you can spend the balmy Algarve summer evenings and enjoy a BBQ with friends and family.

No matter your taste, preference, or the number of people in your party, there is definitely a private apartment for you.

Guesthouses

A guesthouse is a great mix of the privacy of an Airbnb with the service of a hotel.

As it is run from a normal house, there are all the amenities that you could expect. However, there are also services that are usually associated with hotels – towel service, etc.

This in-between is a great first step for those who are unsure about staying in an Airbnb for the first time.

Complete Houses

Staying in a complete house is a great option if privacy is an important consideration for you.

It is like a home away from home, it will have all the privacy and facilities you’re used to at your own home (or it will at least come close).

A complete house allows for regular cooking and cozy evenings with comfortable relaxation.

Villa’s

If you are looking for a home away from home with lots of privacy, and some extra luxury, you should consider staying in a villa.

This is a great option for families as it can be easier to manage a family in a complete, normal house, as opposed to spread across different hotel rooms. Villa’s often come with a garden and pool, nice features that are sure to keep the young ones entertained.

Besides amazing family time, a villa allows for regular cooking, sunbathing, and a fun time around the pool. Having your private garden is great to enjoy cozy evenings with comfortable relaxation.

Top reasons to stay in an Airbnb in Sagres

Accommodation is always a huge consideration when traveling and in recent times this often comes to the Airbnb vs hotel debate.

Sagres is no different, there are numerous Airbnb’s available in this lovely coastal city.

There are a number of aspects to consider when looking at potential Airbnbs.

More privacy

Staying in an Airbnb often provides more privacy than a traditional hotel as Airbnb accommodation is usually separate.

This also allows for more freedom as there aren’t as many strict rules regarding house cleaning and the like.

Rather, there are usually simple common courtesy guidelines.

This freedom also extends to having a full kitchen and separate rooms, making Airbnb a great choice for longer stays.

More unique and authentic experience

While hotels are fairly similar in most parts of the world, Airbnb can differ hugely by location.

This can provide a more unique and authentic experience of staying in a new place.

This can also allow for meeting local residents and learning local customs and recommendations.

This integration is helpful in bridging the gap between being a tourist and understanding the area, people, and culture better.

Often better value than a hotel especially when you are traveling as a family

When it comes to price, Airbnb can often work out as better value than a hotel, especially considering all the benefits that come with it.

If you are traveling as a family or in a group, it can also be significantly cheaper than a hotel.

Conclusion

Sagres is a beautiful exhibition of the best nature has to offer in southern Portugal. From the incredible beaches to the dramatic cliffs, there is natural beauty everywhere in Sagres.

Staying in this area will lead to a truly unique holiday and so we have collated some of the best airbnbs in Sagres to make your holiday even better.
