The room is so spacious and the toilet has jet sprayer and bidet, a plus for me. The location is great, it has nice beach access & the 7 hanging valley cliff trail with great view. The restaurant also has good food. Staff are very nice too.. When the whether is not good, I have the facility of the resort to enjoy.

I stayed for one night, the room was quite simple, but I liked the balcony and the bed was comfortable. There’re 2 pools, an outdoor pool which looked very clean and ready to be used, but it was still quite called for me to swim outside in March. But I used the indoor pool, the water was pleasantly warm, unfortunately, the sauna wasn’t working, but there was a jacuzzi too. What really surprised me was the breakfast and the interior of the breakfast room, loved it. The breakfast was very rich and tasty, a many choices for everyone. Plus the staff at the breakfast were the kindest.

We booked late so it was one of the only places available, very good value for money, clean and easy to walk to Carveiro Village and the Beach. Secure Parking! We were worried Carveiro would be too "touristy," but was absolutely lovely and laid back.

What a great cute cozy stay in such a pretty place, you'll think you're in Greece. Carvoeiro was such a nice surprise and such cute places to go and have a drink or a meal near by. Everything is walkable to the main beach area, which is very small-towny but great. Overall a lot of tourists and very few local people. If you're here for the views and pretty beaches and don't care about the local-Portuguese life, then this is great.
Just a 12-minute walk from Praia do Vale de Centeanes and 0.7 miles from Carvoeiro Beach, Peaceful & Spacious Apt with Parking & Queen Bed features accommodations in Carvoeiro with a garden.

Directions to the property and lock box access were great. Location and proximity to Carvoeiro was fantastic. Walking distance to pretty much everything you need.

We were there in November, weather was rainy and windy the first day, but sunny and 65 the second day. This is a hard town to get to from Seville, so we ended up hiring a driver to take us from Seville to Faro where we rented a car and drove to Carvoeiro. Lovely little town. We ate at O Cantinho and A Gale, both traditional Portuguese restaurants that I would highly recommend. Great boardwalk along the cliffs above the ocean. Easy to walk around, hilly, but that did not bother us. Pretty short drive to Praha Marinha where we hiked the the seven hanging valleys trail. All in all, a great spot for exploring the Algarve. I would very much like to go back here.

We have been to this area before and like it’s proximity to the town, you can walk there is 30 mins, Carvoeira, also there are supermarkets cafes and restaurants nearby, some of the later you can walk to. There are several interesting towns nearby such as Alvor and Silves and beautiful boardwalks at Alvor and Salgados plus the lovely walk at beach at Pria do Vale de Centeanes.
Favourite place to eat for us have been O Algar at Benagil, La Bella Vita, Primavera plus Organic or Earth for breakfast/ brunch and Decadente for coffee snacks and drinks in the evening.

Went in early October and weather was perfect with wall to wall sunshine and temperatures in the 20s. Carvoeiro is a nice mix of buzz and good restaurants and pubs with a busy beach. Surrounding villages, beaches and cliff walks are stunning.

The complex is exactly as the pictures show.
The complex is exactly as the pictures show. There was nothing missing whatsoever. Extremely clean with very friendly staff. The ladies in reception offer a above and beyond service. Nothing was too much trouble.
Although the complex has been built in the most beautiful location with extremely expensive privately owned villas surrounding it, it was quite remote and a car is required as we did not see evidence of a local bus service. We don't drive abroad and initially used the local taxi service but soon realised UBER were cheaper. We never waited more than 3 minutes. We paid about £22 to travel to Albuferia each way and it was worth it as the sunbeds on the beach were cheaper there so it swung in roundabouts. The complex was very quiet and we would definitely return. Beautiful apartment, beautiful complex and pool area, peaceful but more than that beautiful, helpful and kind staff
The location was 10/10, absolutely stunning. You could walk along the cliff trails to meet up with the seven hanging valleys trail that winds around to carvoeiro. The pools were lovely, the downstairs pool was a favourite for the kids to be able to play. The rooms were huge and very comfortable. Blockout blinds and air conditioning. Definitely need a car to stay here which ended up being a positive as it meant we could explore nearby towns and beaches. The breakfast was incredible and the staff were very friendly.
It was not only the best stay of our Portugal road trip, it was even one of the best stays of our entire traveling history. It's really rare to have the luck of finding a place like this, looking authentic, having amazing and passionate hosts, in an even more beautiful landscape. For us, this was an incredibly nice stay, absolutely worth the money. And after all, we only regret that we didn't stay for longer. We will most likely come back!
The apartment was spotless, well equipped and in a perfect position to enjoy all the amenities in Carvoeiro. It was perfect for two couples. Andy was there to greet us and was very friendly and helpful. The complimentary arrival pack was absolutely wonderful and much appreciated. We have been coming to Carvoeiro for many years and have stayed in many places, but this is now our number 1. We have already booked to stay again.
The apartment was huge , separate living room / kitchen area with small balcony , kitchen area well equipped with everying needed for cooking etc , spacious bedroom again with larger balcony loads of wardrobe space . TV in bedroom and living room . Toiletries replenished daily , plenty clean towels . Fab clean apartments , 10/15 minute stroll into carvoeiro centre so great location
The place was clean, spacious and had absolutely everything we could wish for.
The resort is absolutely gorgeous and makes it a great place to relax fully. We also enjoyed the fact that everything was so close: beach, restaurants, groceries,.. perfect location.
On top of that we had the chance to extend our check-out later than planned which was absolutely amazing.
Location, location. Great spot so close to the beach, shops, hiking. The host is an excellent communicator and resolved a couple of minor issues right away. Leading up to and during our stay, Jim was always providing information and assistance. The apt. was spacious and comfortable. The large terrace is a definite bonus. Very quite area. Would definitely recommend.
Just beautiful location and room. Lovely hostess who recommended this great restaurant o' rustico. Felt very comfortable at the hotel as a solo traveller. Hotel is in very secluded area, so no supermarkets. The hotel luckily provided a small area to buy some basic refreshments. Lovely breakfast.
The property is in a very pleasant neighborhood and only a few minutes drive from Carvoeiro. Well kept, modern residences of a very good standard. Friendly and helpful management who were very good about resolving an issue when one room became unavailable. We will definitely visit again.
The location is the biggest plus point. It’s bang next to the beach. Many rooms face the beach. It’s also next to the main town square so my bus literally dropped me in front of the hotel. I also loved the maps and information about the explorers from Portugal, all dotted around the hotel
Good location only 19 min by car from carvoeiro and amazing beaches and boardwalk . Very spacious apartment with washer and basics for the kitchen (was lacking coffee and dish soap. Deck with table for a great sunset. We didn’t use the pool but it looked nice .
Very well placed villa within short walking distance of the beach and centre of Carvoeiro. Comfortable villa with plenty of space and facilities. Lovely communal pool area. Excellent continental breakfast delivered to our door every day. Very friendly staff.
A spacious villa for 8 with a pool table, table tennis and pool. Great location, 15 minute walk to Carvoeiro beach and centre. Loads of shops and restaurants within easy walking distance. Stayed very cool in the villa in April.
The best thing about this property was an incredible staff member on reception named Carla. Personable, competent, informed, a star. The type of staff member that excels at everything she does. She was absolute magic.
Mostly the location, overlooking the beach and close to all there is to visit in Carvoeiro. The staff of the hotel was very nice. Breakfast in the room was generous and nicely presented on picnic baskets.
Great location, fabulous breakfast and the host, Carla couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend this little gem in the centre of Carvoeiro.
Absolutely everything. High class hotel by which all others a judged. It’s not just the views, rooms and fantastic food it’s the staff who go the extra mile.
