Close to the beach, restaurants and shopping. But a few minutes away from the busy downtown area on a quiet street. The roof top deck has a lovely view of the beach and the accommodations were great. We would definitely stay here again. John was a great resource for all we needed and very responsive. ##### David H.

The apartment was comfortable and well equipped and the patio and roof deck were beautiful! The location is perfect— 3 minute walk into town and 5 to the beach! And also possible to park nearby as well!! The hosts were super accommodating and communicative as well. We would definitely recommend this spot and return if ever in Carvoiero again! Our only complaint would be that they didn’t provide more than one trash bag for a five day stay. Similarly there was no soap for the shower. As long as you feel okay providing for yourself after a few days, this is an amazing place! ##### Olivia S. Stayed 5 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Beth F.

The guidebook (app) was informative and helpful. Check-in was uncomplicated with the key safe. A small problem in the house was solved immediately and to our complete satisfaction. The house offers plenty of space and is very well equipped. In addition, it was very clean and well maintained. The location is very central. You can reach the beach and the city center (with bars, restaurants and small shops) in a few minutes on foot. The local beach was too crowded for us personally and too seaweed when we were there, so we drove to various nearby beaches/bays in a rental car. We felt very comfortable and had a great time! ### 10/10 Excellent #### Friederike J. Jan 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very comfortable - even in winter The Casa is well equipped and comfortable also during the winter months. With the mild Portuguese winter, we even made ample use of the rooftop terrace and enjoyed the quiet as well as the lovely views. The accommodation is spacious enough for four people. Centrally located in the village. An amazing coastal walk makes Carvoeiro an attractive holiday location also for hikers. Finding parking was no problem (December / January). Very friendly contact with the agency. They were quick to reply to any questions and proactively provide information about the Casa and the environment, which helped to make our stay even more enjoyable. ##### Friederike J.

House location is excellent and has everything you need, the kitchen is particularly well equipped. The property is also enhanced by a huge roof terrace. We really enjoyed our stay here as it is in a quiet location (we were there in late March) but just a few minutes walk to centre and beach. The area is also perfect for coastal treks with magnificent views. I would provide more lighting! I know it’s a very individual preference but there just were not enough table or floor lamps around. Maybe odd rug, inside door Mat etc. maybe that’s not needed in summer but in winter spring months would make house perfect! ##### Matt ### 8/10 Good #### Dale E. Apr 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location with some noise Overall the property is spacious, well stocked and in a perfect location. Also games and tourist books were appreciated It was a great place to be and we enjoyed it. The view from terrace exceptional. It felt very much like home.There are a few things to consider:1. There is a very loud karaoke bar a few streets below, and it does effect sleeping in front bedroom. My kids decided to check out the bar and they estimate the decibel level at 110. 2. The fireplace does not have a flapper so smoke smell blows down the chimney into living area. We fixed this be bending cardboard over the vents above and below the firebox.3. The wonderful soft and fluffy towels are replaced every 3-4 days, as is the bedding. A great perk, but we were surprised that the garbage wasn't removed at that time.4. Very much appreciated having laundry available. The dryer works well on 1/4 loads but stops working if over a 1/2 load. For most part we used air drying. ##### Dale E.

It is on a hill, so a bit of a climb back to it but after a few days I barely noticed it. We brought a car and found street parking easily. John, the property manager was helpful, responsive, and had a great attitude. Really, he was terrific. It was a clean, comfortable and decently equipped house. Maybe would have been nice to have a few more basic food items in the kitchen, like oil and vinegar, but that was a tiny thing. Now that I have said that, let me really tell you about our stay: We drove in from Lisbon, unloaded and my husband hit the couch with a migraine. I bounced from rooftop to courtyard to front porch yelling ‘look at this’ and ‘oh my goodness it’s gorgeous’ over and over until I finally took pity on him and ran down the hill into town and explored. Every morning I would do the walk to a bakery and pick up bread and a treat, we would read up on the terrace (other than three cold and rainy days), wander through the many trails that are close by, sit on the beach, and either cook a simple mealenjoy a different restaurant. It was a magical place and I highly recommend it. ##### Jennifer Stayed 14 nights in Feb 2024 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Mar 27, 2024 #### Just left and ready to return The house is in a perfect location, with a quick walk into town, to the beach, to shops and restaurants.
