5 Essential Baby Items to Rent for your Holiday in the Algarve: Travel Light with Children

Making Family Holidays in Portugal Stress-Free

Are you planning a family holiday in the Algarve with babies or toddlers? You've found the perfect accommodation, but some essential baby equipment is missing. Don't worry about packing everything from home! Here are 5 must-have baby items you can easily rent at your destination to make traveling with children easier and more enjoyable.

1. Baby Bath: Keep Bath Time Routine While Traveling

Many Algarve holiday accommodations only offer showers, which can be challenging for babies accustomed to baths. While using a sink might work as a temporary solution, renting a proper baby bath ensures your little one maintains their familiar bathing routine during your Portuguese vacation. This small comfort from home helps babies adjust to new surroundings while keeping them clean and happy.

2. High Chair or Bumbo Seat: Stress-Free Meal Times

Meal times with toddlers can quickly become chaotic, especially in unfamiliar settings. When your Algarve vacation rental doesn't include a high chair, renting one locally makes perfect sense. Rather than dealing with messy floor picnics or balancing your wiggly toddler on your lap during meals, a proper high chair keeps your child secure and contains messes, allowing the whole family to enjoy Portuguese cuisine in comfort.

3. Travel Cot or Co-Sleeper: Ensuring Quality Sleep in the Algarve

Good sleep arrangements are crucial for successful family travel. For Algarve vacations with babies, consider renting a co-sleeper like the Maxi-Cosi Iora, which features:

  • Five adjustable height settings to match your bed
  • Mesh viewing window to monitor your baby
  • Foldable side panel for easy access during the night

For both babies and toddlers, lightweight travel cots, such as the Aeromoov, provide a safe, familiar sleeping environment and double as secure play areas during the day. Quality sleep for your child means better rest for parents too!

4. Stroller or Trike: Explore Portugal Comfortably

When traveling to the Algarve with young children, we recommend using a baby carrier like the Ergo Baby through the airport and flight. This travel hack:

  • Prevents potential damage to your stroller in transit
  • Keeps your hands free for managing luggage
  • Maintains close contact with your baby in busy airports

Once at your destination, rent a quality stroller locally for daily outings. For toddlers, the Doona Trike offers an exciting alternative that turns regular walks into adventures while giving parents complete control. Exploring Portugal's beautiful coastal towns becomes much more manageable with the right transportation option.

5. Car Seat: Safe Travel Around the Algarve

If you're planning to hire a car during your Algarve holiday, a proper car seat is non-negotiable for child safety. While car rental companies offer seats, you typically can't choose specific models and may receive outdated or poorly maintained equipment.

For peace of mind, rent a safety-rated car seat from a specialized baby equipment rental company like Globe Toddler. This ensures you receive exactly the car seat model you selected, properly sanitized and in excellent condition, allowing your family to explore Portugal's beautiful coastal region safely.
