About this property

Amazing 2 bed villa, private pool, close to beach/restaurants/bars/golf/tennis

Casa Tranquila is 250 mtrs sq (2690 feet) and in a prime location with wonderful vistas across the valley and towards the sea. The interior is a clever combination of traditional décor with modern functionality and comfort even for the most discerning traveller. The architectural use of shapes generates light and space and captures the ambiance of this delightful southern climate. The property has been built high within the plot to provide the maximum views, coupled with privacy and peace. There is a large drive way and easy steps to take you to the hand made wooden door. You enter the property and immediately note the particularly wide oak and steel floating staircase which takes you up to the accommodation. The property has cleverly been split into two wings. One where you will find the bedroom suites and the other the social areas. Also off the airy corridor is a cloakroom.The sitting room over looks the terrace and pool area with views towards the valley and sea. There is a circular free standing contemporary log burner for winter months. High quality porcelain floor tiles have been used throughout to create a luxurious feel both inside and out on the terraces. We are installing new 3 seater sofas in the sitting room for 2023 to replace our leather ones. There is an extendable dining table/6 chairs, a breakfast bar with 4 stools. You will also find a 50” LCD TV with IPTV installed and a DVD player/DVD films/internet available. There is air conditioning/heating installed which can be utilised at the flick of the remote control. There is a BOSE Bluetooth speaker, even binoculars for viewing the landscapes all around. The pool is built into the raised terrace area that can be entered from the sitting room or the open plan kitchen corridor. Outside you will find tables, chairs, 6 sun loungers, parasols and a Weber gas BBQ for your enjoyment. Permanent slated canopy over the table installed great for shade. A terrace built over the drive, accessed by the pool, has two 3 seater sofas and coffee table. (From time to time we may need to leave our vehicle on the drive, but there is still further room for your car if needed). Inside the property is another flight of stairs that takes you to a private bedroom suite. Please note this area is locked off and not available to rent. This is never in occupation whilst rental guests are in the villa despite we now live in the villa. The guest bedrooms can either be accessed by using the bridge which joins the pool terrace to the large bedroom terrace or of course, inside the villa. There is a further table, sofa, arm chairs and stools for 7 outside the master suite. There are two bedroom suites – one with a king size bed, dressing table/mirror/TV - UK TV. There is a spacious master bathroom with twin sinks, large walk in shower with overhead rain shower or hand held option and WC. On entry to the master suite you will find a large section of wardrobes one housing a digital safe. In the twin bedroom there is a large wardrobe, 32" LCD TV with UK TV, dressing table/mirror. The twin ensuite has a large walk in shower like the master suite, bidet, WC and sink. Both bathrooms have large (heated) curved chrome towel radiators. The fixtures in the bathrooms are a very high standard and even have a Braun toothbrush charger for your use. (Standard Braun 2 pin does not fit Portuguese plugs). The twin room, like the master has solid oak furniture and high quality mattresses with Egyptian cotton linen as well as Egyptian cotton towels and pool towels. Both bedrooms have large patio doors. Overall, this property is ideal in location for those not looking to rely on a car and is stunning in design and furnishings. If you have toddlers likely to climb around the walls of the pool terrace, this property may be a safety risk due to its raised terraces. We have 67 ‘5 star’ reviews which you can find on TripAdvisor - search Casa Tranquila, Carvoeiro, reviews. We did not rent out 2020/2021.

Fabulous stay at Casa Tranquila
Very well equipped, clean and well located property with an amazing pool! We loved our stay here and were very comfortable. One of the top villas we’ve rented in any place we’ve travelled. Would love to come back!

Perfect holiday
I have just returned from a week holiday in Casa Tranquila, Carvoeiro, Portugal with my husband and 10 year old daughter. From the moment I booked this propert, the villa owners, Yvette and Ian could not have been more helpful, providing comprehensive information about the property, as well as fabulous recommendations for things to do and where to eat and drink, even driving regulations and detailed directions from the airport. Accommodating our request for an early check in and late check out due to the times of our flights was such a bonus - giving us a few additional precious hours of our holiday. The property itself is modern and immaculate, and includes everything you could possibly hope for in a self catering holiday. The pool (which we spent many hours in) is immaculate and the mid week maid service and pool maintenance was a bonus. We absolutely loved both Carveiro and the villa itself and were so sad to leave. Without doubt we will return - preferably as soon as possible!

Great break
This was a great base for our holiday in the Algarve. After 3 years of not travelling abroad due to Covid it was definitely worth the wait. The villa is located just a short walk from Carvoeiro town centre. There is a large supermarket 2KM in the other direction as well as a few smaller food shops in the town. The villa was very clean and had everything we needed. Our two girls basically spent the week in the pool and we enjoyed lounging around the pool and getting in for an occasional cool down! The beds were comfy and bathrooms spacious. I would definitely recommend staying here. Most evenings we went to the local restaurants in town but we took a few trips out to other towns also. We enjoyed Ferragudo and we also visited Silves to go to the Medieval festival which was on for 10 days in August. We used Uber taxis to get around which worked well. There are plenty of good restaurants in Carvoeiro as well as lots of shops and a busy but beautiful beach. Some evenings there is entertainment in the town square and there is a frequent road train that takes people on a tour of Carvoeiro and the surroundings. The owners of the villa were very helpful and gave us many recommendations and also answered any questioned we had. Thank you for letting us stay - we definitely didn't want to leave!

About the host

Hosted by Yvette

Host profile image
We are newly retired to Carvoeiro with 4 beautiful young grandchildren. We had our villa built - far from an easy build, but the expressions of love for our home blow us away and make everything worth it. We are both very honest and caring people. We love the area of Carvoeiro and see time after time how so many fall in love with this very safe, beautiful and friendly place.

Why they chose this property

You will not find another property in contemporary style like Casa Tranquila. Amazing insulation mean it is also a good place outside warmer months. Despite the area being very hilly our villa is close to the foot of the roads leading in and out of the village and beach. Equally, by virtue of the property being built high in the plot the views in our opinion are pretty special. Once up the first flight of stairs - wide enough for 2 people side by side - the property is all on the level with no steps onto the pool/terraces. Walking around the garden it is overall gently slopping with two steps to one area and a couple of rock steps on the opposite side. Take a look at our tripadvisor reviews and read what previous guests have to say - not our words, but those totally independent.

What makes this property unique

The villa itself is wonderful, splitting social area/kitchen area from bedroom suites, yet all on one level. The open plan indoor SOCIAL area is about 105 meters square/1100 sq feet., plus bedrooms etc.The outside is architecturally stunning and gives you some ideas as to the delights awaiting inside. Its location is ideal. The nearest restaurant a couple of minutes walk, 10 minute walk to beach, passing many other restaurants, bars and shops. Safe environment. Car not necessary.
