The apartment is like new and has been updated to a very high standard and includes air conditioning in the living room and both bedrooms. There are two spacious bedrooms, the master bedroom with en-suite and second bedroom (a camp bed can be provided at a cost of £10 per night for fifth person but not being an adult) with a shower room. The kitchen is modern and fully equipped with dishwasher, microwave, washing machine and large fridge freezer. The lounge has comfortable seating with a 40" flat screen TV, and includes cable TV providing English TV channels in HD (BBC1 & 2, ITV, CBBC, Sky News and Sky Sports and many more) plus many other language channels, a DVD player (there are a large collection of DVD's, books and games for all the family to enjoy) and also includes a log burning fire for those cooler evenings. The lounge leads out onto to a lovely sunny terrace with quality table & chairs, and lovely views over one of the five swimming pools (includes children's pool) within the resort (which are available to all guests) and a small garden. The apartment also includes free WiFi and a digital laptop safe (clients must ensure they have their own insurance to cover contents held).

The apartment lies in a nice secluded spot which is quiet & peaceful and has well maintained gardens with tennis courts 100 metres away.

A car is not necessary but there is plenty of on-street parking close to the apartment all year round.

The apartment is managed locally by Monte Dourado and the reception is only 100 metres away (there is a phone connection in the apartment, so you can be assured that staff will be on hand to ensure that you have a nice relaxing holiday, whether to book a car, trip or arrange a taxi). The staff are very helpful and are available seven days a week and will assist you with booking trips, golf, airport transfers, car hire or any other information you may need. There are also baby cots, high chairs and folding beds available upon request for hire.

The main pool is heated from 1 October through to 30 April.

Cleaning and linen services are included in the price, together with free use of a laptop safe (own insurance recommended) and WiFi.
For those essential provisions there is a mini-market less than a 5 minute walk away, and also the local municipal market where you can get fresh fruit, vegetables, fish and meat daily (except Sunday).

Great, relaxing stay
So glad I chose this location. It isn’t as crowded as other areas in low season. The beach is sufficient, if you have time to drive you can access a huge beach with softer sand by Sagres and visit the fortress. A nice board walk up the hill is lit at night in Carvoeiro , so you can walk off the late night dinner. We make breakfast in the well equipped kitchen to save time, but there’s breakfast options in town. There’s some great Indian and Nepalese restaurants which have excellent food and service is most courteous. The condo is spacious and the pool is not heated, but refreshing. There’s plenty of food stores down the road toward Lagoa to buy groceries of more variety. Consider taking the 7 Hanging Valleys Trail (Praia da Marina) instead of the Benagil Caves boat tours, unless you like being packed on a boat like sardines, breathing boat engine exhaust, and you’ll save time, frustration, and money - also you might not see the cave with the hole in the top because it’s tide dependent, and you need overhead sun for pictures. You will see plenty of caves and arches from the trail.

Simply the best!!
We all agreed that the property was one of the best we've ever been to, and we have been self catering together for many years. The maid service was a great bonus and the fact that the towels and sheets were changed during our stay added to our feeling of we'll being. There was a problem with the shower when we first got there, which was dealt with immediately and was fine after the repair. We were able to walk to many bars and restaurants and to the beach. The pool was just next to the patio area which was brilliant. Altogether, a great holiday, thank you.

About the host

Hosted by Michelle Mulroy

Host profile image
We purchased our 'place in the sun' in the beautiful village of Carvoeiro, where we have been visiting for many years. We currently live in the UK but our intention is to eventually retire to Carvoeiro. Though that is some years away, we thought we would share our 'place in the sun' with others so they can also experience and hopefully come to love Carvoeiro and the Algarve like we do.

Why they chose this property

The Carvoeiro Area – Jewel of the Algarve

 Carvoeiro is one of the nicest and best preserved areas of the entire Algarve. The responsible authorities realized in the 1970´s that the natural beauty of this region needed to be preserved and applied rigorous restrictions.
As a result Carvoeiro is now mostly free of large apartment complexes and big hotel high rise buildings, as only permission for two-storey buildings are being granted.
Carvoeiro is a very sought-after holiday destination and a wonderful place for permanent residence. Those who have travelled through the Algarve and other southern European coastal areas appreciate the natural beauty of Carvoeiro and always love to come back….to the jewel of the Algarve.

The apartment is In a fantastic central location and situated in a well respected resort of Monte Dourado, and offers a unique location within walking distance of the village and a view overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.

With its private and secluded feeling yet only a few steps from the village and the beach, Monte Dourado is the perfect place for your holiday in the Algarve.

Our guests can enjoy five pool areas, each with a children’s pool. You can play tennis on our two tennis courts or relax with a book from the library in the reception.

The staff speak several languages and are there ready to help make the utmost of your holiday.

Close to the Algarve’s most beautiful and worldwide awarded beaches and within a ten minutes drive you are at two of Algarve’s best Golf courses, namely Vale de Pinta and Quinta do Gramacho.

What makes this property unique

Five minute walk to the centre and beach but in a quiet hillside location. There are lots of places to visit including Lagoa, Ferragudo, Portimao (can take a water taxi from Ferragudo), Alvor, Silves (plus many more) and Zoomarine and Slide and Splash.
