You'll find a boat, water sports equipment, and more on site at this pet-friendly vacation home. Jump into your car and make short work of the 16-minute drive to Olaria Tavares or the 25-minute drive to Monsaraz Castle (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

After you return, you can unwind by the outdoor pool or sip a drink in the hot tub; you may also like the deck or patio and firepit. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the free WiFi and cable/satellite TV.

As you settle into this 7-bedroom, 6-bathroom rental, you'll find a BBQ grill and air conditioning. In addition, there's a jetted tub, along with a bidet, towels, and shampoo. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a microwave. And because there's access to laundry facilities, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
