Although this was a beautiful space with 3 different balconies to enjoy, I was surprised that it was ran by a company, Lovely Stays, and not a host who owns the property. I tried to ask a question on a weekend and an automatic response was they don’t work weekends, but gave emergency contacts and would get back to me Monday, which did not happen. Other than that, it is accurate to its photos and close to so many restaurants, shops, and the beach. It was spacious and had all things we needed. I would say not to use the 2nd bathroom to help reduce moisture buildup which then causes a smell. They have place two air fresheners to help, but I feel a fan needs to be installed.

We stayed here with another couple for several days. It’s a great place and the location and Carvoeiro were amazing! The check in process to upload documents was a little confusing and did not work easily, though.

Great location - super close walk to beach, shops and restaurants. Nice have two separate full bathrooms and 3 balconies! Well equipped kitchen and they provide some starter supplies which is a bonus. Only two complaints - property management company doesn’t provide any info from the outset so we had to ask about everything (where to find the pool, how to access, etc). Would be nice if this info is provided on a sheet or in an email upon arrival. Also, the pictures show a view of the ocean - ocean is close but there is NO/NO ocean view from the unit (only view is of the parking lot)

I was not made aware of the importance of the travel documents required because when I reached out telling the property owner that I was unable to download the necessary documents, they never responded. When we arrived, we could not enter the building and we sat in the car for 30 minutes trying to figure out how to send the necessary documents. The sewage smell coming from the upstairs hallway and bathroom got progressively worse during our stay. One of the couches in the living area was so unstable it tippes to the ground if you were too far on one side. The dogs outside our flat barked on and on every time someone with a dog walked by. Fortunately, the owner brought them in at night. I know this is not your fault, but you should have checked in on us during the country-wide power outage because we were locked out of our building.
