We have been traveling through Portugal for over seven days. Our stay here allowed us the relaxation we needed with the ease of a beautiful, modern condo with all the amenities. The town was a a short walk with restaurant and some shopping.

Highly recommended

Beautiful apartment, kitchen better than I have at home, pool & sunbed's right outside the front door, easy check in. Very close to the beach & restaurants, but far enough away to be very peaceful, Michelle was very helpful with recommending car hire & any other questions we had, would recommend to anyone, only thing to note is that in April the temperature drops from 20 during the day to 14 at night so take warm clothing, all positive & hopefully will be back soon.

Wonderful apartment

What a fabulous apartment! Clean and tidy. Had all of the amenities you needed. The location was within a 5 min walk to downtown Carvoeiro where you can find many restaurants and shops. The owner responded in a timely fashion to any questions we had. She was excellent to deal with. Highly recommend this apartment. Great stay! Coming back for sure.

Fantastically well maintained apartment in great location

We went for a short winter break to Carvoeiro and had a fantastic 6 days. The weather was great and so was the apartment. Decorated and set up to a high standard. We have stayed in many apartments over the years in different places and this was up with the best. As well as the décor being high quality the kitchen was fully equipped and no running out of plates or glasses. Sitting outside the apartment is pleasant with a nice little garden to overlook. There are comfortable chairs to sit on and read your book and also a table to enjoy breakfast and lunch at. The pool is very close to hand. It was great to lie by on well maintain sunbeds. Less than a five minute walk and in the evening you are in the centre of town, with a great range of bars and restaurant. Even out of season there is plenty of choice. I will be returning.

Great Location in Carvoeiro

This property had the perfect location and amenities for enjoying the Algarve. It was an easy walk down to the beach (slightly more challenging back uphill :) Easy to drive to and good parking right in front of the unit. Choice of several grocery stores within a ten-minute drive. So much to do in the area. A little market a two-minute walk away, and great bakeries and restaurants in town nearby. We had warm weather for mid-April and enjoyed the unheated pool just outside the unit (not too cold for Canadians). There was also a heated pool a few units away. The condo was spacious and very comfortable. Be aware that the kitchen, while well-equipped with dishes, pots, utensils etc, did not have any salt, pepper, spices, cooking oils etc. Also, plan to bring shampoo, dishwasher and laundry detergent (or you can purchase tabs at the reception for 0.50 euros.) The host emailed us well in advance with the check-in instructions and information on the resort and area, which was really appreciated! Wish we had stayed longer!

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.

Fantastic to be back in Carvoeiro (and back at Michelle's property in Monte Dourado) - visit number 3 to the town and second to this property. Just as we remembered - everything we could wish for in a holiday property with easy access to the pool (which kept both our boys happy)! Thank-you Michelle for being such a great communicative and helpful host. We hope to stay again in Carvoeiro.

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.
