We’re absolutely delighted to share some more very special news from Salema…

We’ve completed the hat-trick!

Following the recent Airbnb Luxe recognition of Villa Sol e Mar and Villa Vista Paraíso, we’re thrilled to announce that our third villa – Villa Praia Dourada – has now also achieved Airbnb Luxe status.

That means three Simply Salema villas are now recognised as Airbnb Luxe properties.

For us, this is a particularly proud milestone. Each of our villas has been carefully designed and personally curated to offer something rather special – from beautiful interiors and exceptional outdoor spaces to spectacular locations overlooking one of the Algarve’s most beautiful coastlines.

Airbnb Luxe represents a highly curated collection of exceptional homes, and achieving Luxe status across our entire collection is wonderful recognition of the care and attention we put into creating memorable stays for our guests.


Three villas, three Airbnb Luxe properties.
One very special place.

If you’re looking for a luxury Algarve villa holiday in an authentic Portuguese village, we’d love to welcome you to Simply Salema.
