Easter 2025 falls on Sunday, April 20th, placing it right in the heart of Portugal’s blossoming spring. With warm, sunny days returning to the Algarve and the Alentejo countryside in full bloom, it’s a popular time for travelers across Europe to enjoy a well-deserved break. But with school holidays, public closures, and increased demand, it’s also one of the most expensive times of the year for flights and accommodations.
So how do you avoid the Easter price hike and enjoy Portugal when it’s at its absolute best? Simple: buy property in Portugal and holiday all year round, without stress or high-season costs.
What Makes Easter in Portugal Special?
Portugal embraces Easter with heartfelt traditions, quiet reflection, and bursts of celebration. From the candlelit Procissão do Senhor Morto in Braga to sweet folar bread shared among families, it’s a time of both spirituality and indulgence. Cities slow down, and coastal towns bloom with life as locals and tourists emerge from winter hibernation.
However, this also means:
•Flights into Lisbon, Faro, and Porto spike in price weeks ahead
•Rental accommodations become scarce or overpriced
•Restaurants and beaches fill with crowds from all over Europe
•Booking anything last minute? Nearly impossible
For many of our clients, this recurring frustration led to one smart solution: buying a second home or holiday villa in Portugal.
