Great apartment in a fantastic location

We had a great stay in Casa Vera Sol Vista. The apartment is in an excellent location, just a short walk from the main streets of Carvoeiro. It's extremely well equipped, a very good size, has beautiful sea views and was spotlessly clean. It's an ideal apartment for a stay at any time of the year. We would definitely stay there again.

Great Family Holiday in Casa Vera Sol Vista

Having just returned from a stay in Sally’s apartment, I have to say this is one of the best apartments I have stayed in. Ample room for 4 adults, well equipped, beautiful terrace with an amazing view. Short walk into the town with plenty of great restaurants. Small supermarket about 5 mins walk away which stocked everything we needed.

The balcony view is exceptional! The pictures accurately reflect the apartment and everything was functional. The apartment is far enough from the busy downtown but yet walkable when you want to go out for dinner. The walk up from town is steep but manageable.Ample self-parking is available in the complex. The apartment is well stocked and gives you the feeling that you are actually staying in someone's home. There were tablecloths, candles, and matches to use to enjoy a dinner on the balcony at night which shows the attention given to apartment. I highly recommend this apartment.

Wonderful apartment with everything we needed for our week’s stay. Fantastic host, Sally, took the time to call us and check we had arrived safely and had everything we needed.

We have just arrived back from a fabulous stay in Sallys apartment. I have to say I was so impressed from start to finish. The communication from Sally was excellent before we left the UK and she even gave us a call when there to check if everything was ok. The apartment is fantastic, the kitchen is better equipped than my own kitchen and the information provided about the resort and local area was fantastic. The pools were great and it was a short walk into the centre with the beach, variety of restaurants and live music. This place is a gem and one of the best places we have stayed in. We loved every minute and will be back.

About the host

Hosted by Sally Andrew

Host profile image
We used to own and run a family coach holiday company and initially bought the apartment personally as a rental/investment property but we love the apartment and Carvoeiro so much that we now visit several times a year! We can’t get enough of the place!! We feel our knowledge of the travel business and our attention to detail has helped us in the creation of a perfect home from home for all guests. Our parents and two grown up sons also love to visit – it really is a place suitable for all ages!

Why they chose this property

When we decided to purchase rental apartments we searched the Algarve with definite criteria. We wanted 2 bedrooms AND 2 bathrooms. We wanted a smaller village/town with a Portuguese feel and no high rise buildings yet with enough to cater for all ages. We wanted to be within walking distance of shops, restaurants & bars with no need for a hire car. We wanted a resort with communal swimming pools/reception/tennis courts and our icing on the cake was a sea view. We were so lucky to get EVERYTHING we wanted and more! We chose Carvoeiro as it retains its fishing village charm and stays ‘open’ all year round. We chose Monte Dourado resort as it is so well managed and has beautifully maintained and spacious gardens and pools. Although we are in the village our location is a quiet location.

What makes this property unique

Our south facing balconies get the sun all day long all year round. It is wonderful to sit on the balcony at any time of the day and soak up the ambience of Carvoeiro and watch and hear the waves coming onto the beach. During summer months music can be heard drifting up from the village square which is great for couples & families who want a ‘night in’ yet still want to feel a ‘part of it’ and enjoy a holiday atmosphere. Once the double glazed doors and windows are closed you have peace and quiet. Cooking-in is easy as we have full facilities & utensils – you don’t even have to wash up as we have a dishwasher! The beach is only a 5 minute walk or you have two communal pools just a few steps from your back door! The log burner creates a lovely cosy atmosphere in winter months.
