Beautiful villa very well renovated in a perfect location

We’ve had a great 3-night stay at the villa. We were a group of 5 and it worked perfectly for us. The villa has been recently renovated to a very high standard. Communication with the host was quick and easy. I would highly recommend this accommodation.

A perfect house and perfect hosts

Villa Carvalhal was better than I could have allowed myself to imagine. Communication with the hosts beforehand and during out stay was excellent. Our arrival was delayed by hours but they were still there to meet us and were very helpful. We were three grandparents, two parents and two very young children and the space was excellent - very clean and beautifully designed. It was really special to be located by the old town, rather than over in the hotel zone. It was a pleasant short walk into the centre, although the less-mobile among us appreciated the bus stop right outside the house and the inexpensive taxis.
