Lovely traditional villa, everything you may need

We stay every year at this villa, it is clean, location is great, owner is marvellous, pool beautiful, we couldn't ask for more. Absolutely nothing negative to say about it, just 5 mins walk to restaurants and beach closeby if you want it.

8/10 Good

Enjoyable holiday in an ideal location

The villa is perfectly situated for all the amenities in Carvoeiro plus the many coastal walks on the doorstep. We spent two weeks here and did not need to hire a car. The villa has everything required, plus an excellent pool, which we felt needed heated to use in early May. The pool heating was very effective and the pool was cleaned twice during our stay. There are an abundance of very good restaurants within easy walking distance. A perfect spot if you want a quiet relaxing holiday.

Brilliant, even better than the pics show

Sam and the staff are great and the villa plot is huge. The one downside was without paying the £150 pool heating bill we found the pool on the cold side but it was money well spent as the pool was superb. The town was superb and there was a little supermarket and restaurants just 200 yards from the villa which was extremely helpful. We will possibly be back, highly recommend

About the host

Hosted by Ms S. Carr

I purchased my first villa in the Algarve in 1996/1997. After having seen dozens of different villas along the Algarvian coast up to Burgau, west of Lagos, I fell in love with the town of Carvoeiro and its "small seaside town" atmosphere and charm. The town centre is small but it has everything to offer: shops, banks, pharmacy, numerous restaurants and plenty of bars and cafes and of course sandy beaches.
I moved to live permanently in the Algarve in 2000 leaving behind a busy career in the City in London and to set up a villa management business.
I look forward to welcoming you in the villa.
Best regards Sam Carr
