Almost too good to be true!
Pure magic. I told my husband that I thought this listing had to be fake because for the price, right ON THE BEACH, 3BR 2BTH, absolute perfection. This beach bungalow is in the side of a cliff at the very edge of Benagil. Overlooking the famous beach and facing ocean with cliff face, it could not be more picturesque. The house was perfect for family because it is narrow with no hall across bedrooms but the trade off of the unique, super special location is no contest. Only ask I would have for hosts is please leave a little coffee to at least get guests through a morning or two to find groceries. Walking to coffee, ice cream and at least four restaurants including Algar which was as good as any five star we’ve dined at. Best view and most special location I’ve ever stayed anywhere in the world.

Cliffs of Algarve
The walking trail that passes adjacent to this cottage is spectacular as is the view and amazing local seafood. This cottage itself is lovely and faces beautiful cliffs and a beach (that was unfortunately covered in seaweed during the entire week we stayed.) What we didn’t realize is that this beach is a busy tourist and hiker stop and when outside there is no privacy. Mattresses could use upgrading and parking is an issue. Overall enjoyed our stay but would pick another home next time.

Fabulous holiday!
Unbeatable location perched above beautiful Benagil beach. Unrivalled views from the terrace which was a fantastic place to sit - so close to the beach but a tranquil retreat from the August chaos! It was especially beautiful in the evenings when the beach was quiet - no better place to eat in Benagil! Only slight issue was fact that there was only one key - others have commented on this, but it did mean that the bedroom nearest the kitchen has to be walked through to get to the second bedroom. Would be so much better if two parts of the house could be self- contained! Also, there is no supermarket in Benagil - you do have to drive to the nearest supermarket. We arrived late at night and a few provisions for breakfast would have been so welcome - even just a bottle of water in the fridge! These were small problems - we had a wonderful stay in Benagil in this very special house and would thoroughly recommend it!

Words cannot describe THE most spectacular view!!!
Location is literally overlooking stunning Benagil Beach- A narrow and busy beach during the day. The listing beach pic must have been taken before 8am because directly beneath /about 1/4 of the beach is taken up by the boat/kayak tours launch. There are ALOT of cave boat/kayaks tours passing by all day long. But really fun to watch it all the action from high above and we didn't mind it at all. Beach starts to empty by 5:30pm and it's totally quiet and peaceful after that. There is a beach front restaurant right below with good pizza. A new beach club/restaurant with lounge music just a few steps above that gives you access to their plunge pool if you eat/drink there. 2 other restaurants at this spot. You will need a car if you want to do groceries 11mins away. Easiest parking is at the top of the hill and you will have to walk down 3 sets of steps. A short walk across the parking lot at the top leads you to the beautiful and quiet Carvalho Beach. Villa has a cute cottage feel, clean and everything you need. The huge deck and outdoor living space is amazing. ACs only in the BRs so we had to request a fan that was perfect for the main living room/kitchen. The configuration is such that all the rooms are lined up in a row- you have to walk through all the rooms to get from one side to the other but still all very spacious! Both bathrooms are dated and one in need of a major makeover. Overall - it's a great place with an unforgettable view!

Great views with issues
We had been looking forward to our stay in Benagil. While the views were amazing, we did have issues. The air conditioning never worked in either bedroom during our stay. We were notified they'd identified a compressor failure, however 2 days after we'd left. The bedrooms were 39 C by afternoon and would only reach 29 C by morning with all windows open in the entire house. Since windows had to be open, our sleep was terrible as there is activity all night on and to the beach (e.g. garbage crew cleanup at 1am, cleaning crew with leaf blowers at 3am, beach cleaning crew 4-7am, then hundreds of visitors show up and literally walk in front of bedroom window). With the windows open and all the activity, we also had a safety concern. We did not have a single good night's rest during our 4 days and found the overall stay miserable due to the heat and noise. Our daughter ended up with some sort of unidentified bug bites all over her back and arms that cleared up upon leaving. In addition, the morning sun is brutal when you'd like to enjoy the patio and view with a coffee. We'd have liked to have seen a few beach chairs and umbrellas with flat as most visitors aren't traveling with those. The beach itself was very rough for 2 of the 4 days there and 60% of beach length was completely covered in seaweed. The surf made it unswimmable for children. We had 4 other rentals while in Portugal and rated all 5 stars. We would not recommend this location, especially during summer.

Beautiful home
We loved our stay at Benagil. The home was amazing, the views astounding, the location perfect for a six-day getaway. The home was clean, bright, comfortable and well maintained and my wife was particularly fond of the heated floors during our early spring stay. It was good that we rented a car so that we could keep the fridge stocked, but we availed ourselves of the many outstanding restaurants nearby. We should note that because the house is perched along a walkway down the cliffs, we often found morning hikers sharing the porch for a moment or two, until they understood it was a private residence.
