Last Minute Algarve End of Summer Getaway: Villas Available Now

When summer isn’t quite over yet
last minute Algarve end of summer villa getaway can be the unexpected plan that comes along just when the holidays seem to be over. September still brings long, sunny days, pleasant temperatures and plenty of opportunities to enjoy southern Portugal at a much slower pace than during the peak summer weeks.

The Algarve without the rush
At the end of summer, the Algarve takes on a different atmosphere. The beaches are still a highlight, but there is also time for seaside walks, exploring nearby towns, relaxing on a terrace or enjoying a long dinner as the evenings gradually become a little cooler.

Faro is well worth exploring
Faro is much more than a place to land before continuing the journey. Its Cidade Velha invites visitors to wander through cobbled streets and historic buildings, visit the cathedral and finish the day by the Marina, soaking up the city’s relaxed atmosphere.

Nature and charming places to discover
Nearby, Ria Formosa Natural Park offers one of the Algarve’s most beautiful landscapes. Olhão, Tavira and Loulé are also worth visiting for their charming streets, local markets and traditional restaurants serving fresh fish and Portuguese specialities.

Last minute Algarve end of summer villa getaway: travel at a slower pace
Staying in a villa can completely change the way a holiday feels. There are no breakfast schedules or reasons to be constantly on the move: a private pool, terrace and personal space mean that staying at the villa can become one of the best parts of the trip.

Time to enjoy being together
A last minute Algarve end of summer villa getaway is particularly appealing for families and groups of friends. There is plenty of space for shared meals and long conversations, while everyone can still find a quiet corner to unwind after a day exploring the Algarve.
