The villa was wonderful and the view towards the ocean idyllic. We walked to many of the good restaurants in the area and the beach and beach bar. We chose not to heat the pool and it was freezing!! This did not stop my sister from swimming 30 laps all 10 days we were there!! We needed a car to visit the towns along the coast but were always happy to return to our "home base".

Perfect summer house for an active family

The house is clean, very well equipped and spacious with great outdoor arets and a large pool. The location is great. It is not far to the beach or to the town of Carvoeiro. The area has everything an active family needs. It is not far to an open open football field, golf, water activities, tennis or padel tennis. The host is so helpfull and friendly. We hope to come back

Couldn’t have asked for a better place

A fantastic five night stay. My wife and I travelled with our two children (ages 5 and 16 months). The outdoor setup was exactly what we wanted. Huge patio with an awesome pool. Nice rooftop place to hang if you desire. The area has a ton of great spots to visit nearby. Interior was well stocked with everything you need. Hope to be back!

Perfect accommodation

The property was perfect for our group! The fence off pool was excellent with our young grandchildren and the host heated it for us to a perfect temperature. The home is located in a quiet area away from downtown Carvoeiro, which is what we were looking for. The home was kept clean with regular cleaning days. We had a wonderful two weeks here!

First trip to Portugal

Our stay was fabulous! We loved everything about our visit. Exploring the area and tours we took were very enjoyable. The people of Portugal are so friendly and warm. We will definitely be returning to Portugal! Our only complaint was the internet service which was unreliable.

About the host

Hosted by Clare Puri

Host profile image
We are a couple from Surrey and first came to Carvoeiro and stayed at this villa in 1993 with our two young children. Since then we have holidayed in many villas in Europe and often been disappointed with low levels of service. So when we eventually bought this villa in 2002 after much pestering from the children, we were determined to provide the best in terms of comfort and cleanliness for our guests. No more lumpy mattresses and dusty sofas and temperamental grimy showers! Over the years we have made a number of improvements, including replacing the sofas, curtains, décor, upgrading all the beds with the best mattresses we could find, a new kitchen and two brand new luxury bathrooms (and lots of other things such as drains and pumps which are not visible). It is a true home from home for us, and our favourite place to relax together or with friends no matter what time of year. We have done our best to make this a great place to stay and it really thrills us when we learn that our guests have really enjoyed it, just as we do, year after year. We hope you will enjoy your stay at Vivenda Centeanes and make it a regular place to visit.
