Well situated villa walkable distance to town Walkable to two excellent restaurants Great roof terrace with comfortable furniture lovely pool good heating Excellent information booklet

Arrived at Faro airport, collected a hire car and followed the very clear and concise directions provided by Alison and Dan with no problems! Great start to our holiday! Upon arrival at the villa, we were welcomed by Miguel who proceeded to show us around and go through the necessary information. Our first impression was great, a very spacious and clean villa with everything we needed for our stay. The outside area and pool made it extra special. Being able to wake up to a view of the pool followed by breakfast outside with blue sky and sunshine every morning was just the best! Carvoeiro is a lovely town with some beautiful beaches and a good selection of restaurants, bars and shops. We enjoyed walking into the town along the Estrada do Paraiso and saw some beautiful sunsets on our evening walks. The board walk to Algar Seco provided amazing views of the coastline and interesting rock formations. Ferragudo is another small resort worth visiting with two very different beaches to explore. Highly recommend this villa and hope to return for another relaxing holiday.

we had an amazing holiday the villa was excellent clean and had everything we needed. Would highly recommend it as it's spacious and only a short walk into town.

We just got back from our holiday in Carvoeiro. Casa Castelinho was perfect for our group of 8 friends (aged 30-33). The house was bigger than we imagined and the stay would not have been as amazing without the pool, bbq and rooftop terrace. I cannot recommend this villa enough! Every bedroom has its own bathroom which is great. There's also an extra toilet with its own shortcut to the pool area, so you don't have to make a mess through the whole house when you're soaking wet and need to go to the bathroom. Sadly we only realized this on the last day of our stay :) There's also an outdoor shower for anyone who can't live without that amenity. What else can i say? Miguel was friendly, the cleaning ladies where really sweet, the gardeners were efficient, hardly noticed them. The place was nice and clean. Loved it! We did not have a rental car during our week and we managed just fine. We easily walked down to Carvoeiro. Some of us easily walked back up others took a taxi(4-5€). I did read previous comments about the steep descent/climb to/from Carvoeiro, but it was WAY steeper than i thought.:) As I said though, taxis are cheap and well worth the money if you don't want to break a sweat on your holiday. Out of the 2 easiest routes to walk Rampa Mato Serrao is steeper, but more shaded because of the surrounding trees, while R. do Escondidinho is not as steep, but more exposed to the sun and heat. We did our main grocery shopping at the Intermarché and we got there by taxi/uber. No problem whatsoever. Smaller stuff or something we might have forgotten we just got in the smaller markets in the center of Carvoeiro. All in all a great holiday. I'd go back and do it again any day every day!
