About this property
Gorgeous villa ideally located with pool, ocean views, AirCo, great for families
This magnificent villa is ideally located for everything the charming ex-fishing village of Carvoeiro has to offer. It is enroute to all the famous and hidden coastal walks in the area, including the iconic Benagil cave, and Seven Hanging Valleys. These walks lead to the most spectacular beaches in central Algarve, like Albandeira, Marinha, Benagil, Centeannes (the closest) and Carvoeiro, all of which are reachable by foot or by car. Half a dozen local restaurants are within 5-7 minutes’ walk, like Vale do Milho Restaurant run by a local Portuguese family (3 min walk) and O Stop, the restaurant on the Centannes Beach which is loved for its cuisine and sunsets (5 min walk). The villa itself is tastefully decorated to preserve the original feel of Portuguese Quintas and offers panoramic view of the ocean. It is spacious, comfortable and well equipped from its modern kitchen with an outside eating area with a BBQ, to air-conditioning in every bedroom and a large heatable swimming pool. The Villa is set within 1 acre of gorgeous gardens with cedar, mimosa, eucalyptus and fruit trees ensuring tranquillity and total privacy for your stay. It is also worth a mention that our cleaning is done by a Portuguese lady taking immense pride in her work and that you will have direct access to friendly, caring and responsive hosts, happy to assist you with any queries you might have during your stay. The local attractions include multiple Water amusement parks, a Zoo, Zoomarine, Sand City Exhibition, Boat trips to the Caves, Watersports, Bike rides, Golf (3 min stroll to Vale do Milho Golf), Tennis (5-7 min stroll to Rocha Brava Tennis Courts) to name a few… The Villa’s central Algarve location makes the it ideal to serve as the base for exploration of the whole Algarve area without any need to change your location, as you can easily reach Algarve’s most eastern attractions like Tavira and most Western (Lagos, Sagres) within an easy 1 hr drive. The Monchique mountains with their unspoilt walks are within 30 min drive up North. Also, some of our guests reported making a pleasant 1 day trip to Lisbon and Seville. You can hardly find a better property combining its impressive size, tasteful original décor, the comfort of all modern amenities, private large heated pool, beautiful 1 acre gardens ensuring total privacy, and the ideal location for everything Carvoeiro and Algarve have to offer!

Our stay was amazing! Veronica was proactive in communications making our stay great! We loved that Louisa came in every other day for housekeeping. Beds were comfortable, pool was amazing!! We highly recommend you stay here.
This villa is absolutely gorgeous! The owners were very communicative and great to chat with. Pool was amazing, didn't need it heated in mid September. A/C in each room worked very well. We had a great time! One recommendation would be to supply guests with laundry detergent and liquid soap for washing pots/pans and being able to use the washing machine. THANK YOU Victoria! Felt secure and safe!
This was such a lovely, quiet retreat for our group of 7 friends. We had just come from walking several days on the Camino and this house was a restful, comfortable place to enjoy some downtime. The pool and patio were fantastic! We opted to heat the pool and were glad that we did. The king beds seemed much larger than a normal king. Two friends shared a king easily and plenty of extra space. We had two rental cars and found the location to be convenient, just a 10 minute easy drive into Caroveiro.
Could note fault this villa, Beautiful , clean and well equipped. 9 of us aging 12 to 67. Had a brilliant time. We didnt bother to hire a car .Used Uber. Lovely Pool . Great communication from host
We had a great stay. Loved the pool!!! The place was definitely large enough for the 7 of us. Large property and private. Safe area to walk. 5 min Bolt ride to Carvoeiro. Lots of great restaurants.
The Villa is amazing. It’s as described in the advertisement. Communication from Veronica was excellent and we had no issue with check in or check out. This was the perfect stay for a family group from Australia that needed a rest from traveling.
We really enjoyed our time at this property. The home and grounds are gorgeous, the location is convenient for dining and shopping in Carvoeiro and other nearby towns, and we were extremely comfortable staying in the home for 4 nights with elderly grandparents and a rambunctious toddler. Everything was as described and we would absolutely return to this home again!
The most beautiful villa. We absolutely loved our time here and were gutted to leave. Villa is clean, the beds are so comfortable and it’s very private so perfect for us. Veronica is so easy to get in touch with and very helpful should you need it.
The house was extremely clean and the property was well cared for. While we went to the local beaches daily, the pool was a focal point. The family had so much fun swimming and goofing off there. We chose to have it heated which made it that much better. Our host was easy to communicate with and very prompt with her responses, though honestly nothing went wrong during our stay. Very peaceful neighborhood but near enough to beaches and downtown. Though I would suggest a car to get around to downtown Carvoeiro The grounds are beautiful and we enjoyed taking short walks through the well maintained garden. A great experience, our family had an awesome time!. I can’t recommend this property enough.
Beautiful, spacious, yet cozy, villa surrounded by lush greenery. It was perfect for our family. Swimming in the pool was a highlight.
Exceptional communication with hosts.
Quinta Atlantica was perfect for us and we had a lovely relaxing holiday. Pool and outside area is excellent, and the well kept gardens add to the great views when you're outside.
Kitchen is well equipped, bathrooms clean (with no hot water issues at all!) and bedrooms all comfy.
A luxurious villa that I would recommend and definitely visit again.
Val and Veronica were excellent hosts and communication was excellent throughout, not that we needed anything!
The villa was beautiful exactly as described. The property is well located and easy to find. The facilities are excellent, rooms are very big and bathrooms are lovely and well equipped. The pool is very large with plenty of loungers. Free use of a lovely BBQ which we used several times. Communication with the property owner was excellent and she was very helpful. We would definitely use again.
This really was the perfect relaxing spot for our holiday. Love that there are two outdoor dining tables so you can follow the sun or the evening breeze and sunset. Great communication from the host Veronica and she was super quick to respond to any queries. Kitchen has everything you need to cook up a feast and some great spots to eat out in the area, would especially recommend Monte do Mar.
Cannot recommend this property highly enough. We were a big group and there was lots of space, both inside and outside. Fantastic pool and entertainment areas and the kitchen and bedrooms were great. All extremely comfortable. Veronica was amazing. She checked we were comfortable and extended our check out time. Such a pleasure dealing with such an understanding and considerate person. Thank you! Will certainly recommend to friends and family.
This was our second visit and what another wonderful stay! The villa was just as spacious as we remembered with room for all of us, family friends and teenagers to have our own space. The beautiful pool was such a joy and kept in tip top condition by regular cleaning visits from the pool guy! Louisa was an absolute joy keeping the home so clean for us during our stay. Excellent communication with Veronica, so accommodating. The location is also wonderful, Ubers are an inexpensive way to make the short trip to town and carvoeiro has so many wonderful places to eat. Locally, the Lighthouse, the Vale de Milho restaurant and Le Jardim de Farol are all excellent choices and within walking distance. This definitely won’t be our last visit to this wonderful villa.
A wonderful Villa with a true european feel. Comfortable furnishings, cozy, country kitchen and fantastic pool and surrounding patios. All of the bedrooms have air conditioning which is a must!This is a large Villa with plenty of room for your guests and family. We are from Seattle and we rented this beautiful Villa for three weeks and it truly our 2nd home! the owner Veronica is a rock star! I would highly recommend this Villa for your Holiday!!

Many thanks for your kind words, Tim and Linda! We would be very happy to welcome you back soon!
This villa is beautiful, spacious and very clean! There were 6 adults and we all enjoyed the amazing pool and the fantastic gardens! We ventured out every day to tour the area and returned later in the afternoon to lounge around the pool and walk the gardens. Also having the Vale de Milho restaurant near by was convenient, the food and their hospitality was amazing! Our villa host, Veronica was very responsive and extremely helpful with any questions we had about the villa and the area. We highly recommend staying at Quinta Atlantica you will love it!!
Have just returned from a weeks stay at Quinta Atlantica. The property is perfect for a family holiday, being well equipped and extremely large. Easy access to beaches, supermarkets and restaurants...a car is recommended although there is a very good Uber network locally. The pool and gardens are beautiful, offering privacy and peace. Communication with the owner was easy. Have stayed in many Villas in the past, but this was probably the best! Totally recommended...ad well worth the 5 star rating.
Amazing villa in beautiful quiet location. Very clean, lovely big pool, wonderful shady spots to sit. Lots of room. Airco in bedrooms worked perfect and were much needed. Communication with Veronica was great. Really enjoyed our stay! Ubers into town are super easy to get and cheap too, overal a perfect place to spend time with family. Loved the bbq area too, shady with a nice breeze often. Would go back in a heart beat!
