Summer extended stays in the Algarve: An experience like no other
More and more guests are choosing to extend their time in the Algarve – and we don’t blame them! From golden beaches and warm sea breezes to vibrant towns and peaceful escapes, it’s no wonder that Summer Extended Stays are becoming the holiday trend of 2025.
Whether you’re staying a few extra weeks after August or planning a full month (or more) in paradise, now’s the perfect time to make your Algarve escape last longer.
Why choose a summer extended stay?
Summer doesn’t stop in August! The Algarve stays warm and welcoming well into September and October - think sun-kissed days, warm sea swims and al fresco dinners without the crowds.
Work, rest and play
Remote work is here to stay, and where better to do it than from a private villa with strong Wi-Fi, a pool, and ocean views? Many of our guests are blending business with pleasure, enjoying productive mornings and relaxing afternoons on the beach.
Better value for longer stays
Longer stays often mean better rates with flights, car hire and local experiences. You’ll enjoy more time and space for your money.
Stay flexible, stay relaxed
When you have more time, you can enjoy everything at your own pace. Take spontaneous day trips, find your favourite beach spot or simply relax without packing your days with activities. It’s the ultimate stress-free holiday.
Live like a local
From morning coffees at your favourite café to discovering hidden beaches and markets, extended stays let you settle into the Algarve lifestyle. Many of our guests tell us it’s the first time they’ve truly unplugged.
Who are summer extended stays perfect for?
Families love the flexibility that Summer Extended Stays provide. Whether you’re looking to stretch out the school holidays or enjoy a change of scene before term starts, an extended break means more memories together. It’s also perfect for families with younger children who aren’t tied to term times, giving you the freedom to travel outside peak periods while still soaking up the summer sun.
Remote workers and digital nomads are also embracing the Algarve for longer stays. With reliable Wi-Fi, peaceful settings, and plenty of inspiring backdrops for your Zoom calls, it’s easy to get the job done – and even easier to relax afterwards.
Couples and retirees often choose a slower pace, making the most of the region’s beauty without the summer rush. Extended stays allow for deeper exploration, more time to unwind and a real taste of local life.
And let’s not forget our wonderful returning guests! Many choose to revisit their favourite SandyBlue villa year after year – and now, they’re staying even longer to make the most of the comfort, familiarity and luxury that keeps them coming back.
Make 2025 the summer that lasts longer
