Friendly host who answered any questions quickly. The space was as described in the ad and demonstrated in the photographs, which was very good in terms of size and conditions. Good and calm location.

A great place to stay, real home from home. Handy to have dishwasher tablets and soap etc. Great location, Short walk to all the town and beach. Would love to stay again!

We arrived Christmas day and were greated with a smell of sewage that lasted our first three days. We were told not to flush toilet paper, we complied but there was still a terrible smell. We paid extra for a heated pool. The pool never heated, someone came after 3 day and told us we needed to cover the pool. When pulling the cover over the pool the plastic cover came apart in our hands. We swam in the pool for 1 minute, once and were charged 200euro, a very expensive swim. Overall the property is large and can accommodate a large group well. Pool table was a nice extra and the location is great. I would advise against paying anything for the pool and get ready for a bit of a stink, we used candles to help mitigate the smell.

We stayed in this lovely villa twice this year (April and August) with two different sets of family friends. We all loved this villa for its space and location. The outside space is absolutely fabulous, a lovely pool area, bbq and eating area and rooftop terrace. I know you’re on holiday but the rooftop terrace dries washing like nobody’s business and with two washing machines you can pack light and keep on top of things so easily. It doesn’t feel like a chore to be up on the roof pegging out washing! The living space is so well suited to two families with enough areas for people never to feel on top of each other. We had older teenagers as part of our group and so they occupied the lower area of the villa, giving them a real sense of freedom around the well used games room. We love Carvoeiro and this villa is in a fabulous position. Walking into Carvoeiro is down ‘that hill’ which inevitably involves the ‘dig in’ return journey but we walked it every time. The property is well maintained with regular pool cleaning and a couple who clean the house extremely thoroughly. The villa rental company also called in during both of our visits checking all was ok, they were also extremely responsive and helpful when we did need to contact them. Issues were addressed very impressively promptly.

Large villa close to local town and beach.. This villa has something for all ages, the pool is gated which is great if you have little children, a games room with table tennis and pool table, somewhere to come together when the suns gone down. The games rooms had a couple of very minor issues with pool cues being well used but this didn’t detract from the fun of a family get together . 2 BBQ’s, one on the roof terrace, plenty of sun beds and Pool/beach towels provided. All the home from home comforts you could need, although we didn’t use the cooker but the kitchen and kitchenette are well stocked with equipment including washing machines. Front room has satellite TV and air conditioning unit with doors opening onto garden. Overall impression of the villa is large, clean, well thought out, the decor is neutral although some may find the kitchen dated Great for families especially if 2 families sharing, enough room for a group of friends to share as there is space for all. Would definitely return ;-)
