Total relaxation

The rental is exactly like the pictures . The terrace view is breathtaking. Loved having our nightly drink as the sun went down. You are walking distance to restaurants and to the beach. Harald was so friendly and accommodating to our every need. It was hard to leave, but , we will be back.

Carvoeiro Paradise

We chose this location to celebrate our 25th anniversary and highly recommended it. The ocean views from the bedroom and dining room windows were only topped by the 360-degree view from the spacious rooftop deck. Several eating spots, a market and the local beach were all within easy walking distance. The apartment was fabulous, just as pictured! Harald was a very welcoming and helpful host, and was always available on site. An ideal location for a memorable experience!!

Lovely place with an ocean view.

We really felt cozy and comfortable with the place. A huge benefit was a location, just on the cliffs, where you can start your hike along the ocean. As well a roof terrace and friendly property manager Harold, who treated us with fruits from his garden.

Traumausblick!

Wir hatten einen wirklich wunderschönen Auftenhalt in dieser Ferienwohnung. Sie war auf jeden Fall groß genug für uns und gemütlich. Die Wohnung liegt in einer ruhigeren Gegend, Restaurants, ein Spar Markt und Strände sind fußläufig zu erreichen, wir würden aber dennoch für weitere Ausflüge ein Auto empfehlen. Der Ausblick von den Fenster und der Dachterasse war einfach unschlagbar und eigentlich das schönste! Bei der Kommunikation mit Herr Wittmann gab es auch absolut keine Probleme. Wir würden immer wieder kommen :)

Haus auf der Klippe am Meer

Die mediterrane ( mit zum Teil mit etwas in die Jahre gekommenen Gegenständen ) Einrichtung finde ich persönlich entzückend, wer es modern mag oder Luxus erwartet, wählt lieber ein anderes Appartement. Der Ausblick von der Dachterrasse und aus den Fenstern auf den Atlantik ist so schön, dass wir kleinere Mängel gerne in Kauf nahmen. Bei kleineren Problemen wurde uns umgehend geholfen und wir fühlten uns gut betreut.Wir werden gerne wieder kommen und haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen.

Schöner Urlaub

Ein wirklich schönes Objekt, nur das Bad ist nicht ganz so hübsch. Austattung ist aber sehr einfach, aber ok für einen schönen entspannten Urlaub. Terrassenstühle sind sehr einfach und etwas unbequem. Schade ist, das die Treppe zur wunderschönen Terrasse etwas abenteuerlich von aussen und nicht direkt aus dem Haus nur erreichbar ist., so das man das Frühstück etwas mühsam dorthin tragen muss. Ansonsten haben wir den Aufenthalt sehr genossen und uns sehr durch die Betreuung von Herrn Wittmann wohlgefühlt. Er hat sich auch sofort um Ersatz für die defekte Sonnenliege gekümmert.

Excellent location and spectacular views

The property was one in a block of 4 and the only one not being or had been renovated. Décor was a little tired, but the quirky maritime theme worked well and made up for this. The stairs to the roof terrace would not be suitable for the elderly or the infirm and was potentially dangerous. I have a visual impairment and only just managed them. All the other apartment have had them altered. The building works went on next door for the two weeks we were there.

The apartment was super clean and very pretty. So close to the water and the cliffs. Perfect place for a relaxed vacation. We definitely plan to visit again. Harald, the host, was so accommodating. He responds to any question or need immediately. His pleasant personality is definitely worth mentioning. Thank you Harald!!! We were sad to leave this place and the memories will live in us forever.

Great apartment near nice beaches!

If you are looking for a quiet place to stay with a magnificent ocean view and close to some of the most gorgeous beaches in the Algarve, this is certainly a good choice. Restaurants, bares and supermarkets are in walking distance as well. The balcony on the rooftop has a grill (which was highly appreciated) and it’s perfect for sunloungers and relax. The kitchen is well equipped (even has a washing machine) and the apartment well maintained and clean (this apartment has a more maritime style to it, if you are looking for a more modern style, you should check the other apartments from this owner). The owner is attentive and always reachable by phone. We had our 7-month baby with us and were provided with a baby cot. Fresh oranges and lemons from the owners garden were displayed in front of the office for the guests so we had a lovely fresh orange juice every morning! Also a bottle of wine and water were provided on arrival - what a nice touch! Great place to enjoy a nice vacation - I would definitely recommend it!

Herrliche Wohnung für einen tollen Urlaub

Im Mai/Juni haben wir zwei Freundinnen (Mitte 20) in der netten Wohnung Gil Urlaub gemacht, denken immer noch träumerisch an den tollen Urlaub zurück und möchten uns auch nochmals bei dem Algarve HolidayCenter-Team bedanken - es war ein super Urlaub. Die atemberaubende Aussicht, die wir sowohl vom Schlafzimmer/Esszimmer aus, aber natürlich auch von der fantastischen Dachterrasse aus täglich genossen haben, werden wir nie vergessen. Sehr schnell haben wir uns heimisch gefühlt, und uns gefreut, wenn wir von Strandausflügen oder anderen Ausflügen ins Land in "unsere" Wohnung zurückgekehrt sind. In der Wohnung ist alles vorhanden, es ist ausgesprochen sauber und man kann den Urlaub so richtig genießen. Der frische Fisch bruzelte auf dem gemauerten Grill auf der Dachterrasse, vor uns nichts als die großartigen Felsformationen und der endlose Ozean, wir saßen oft noch lange in die Nacht mit einem Glas Rotwein auf der Dachterrasse und bewunderten einfach nur das Meer und die Idylle. Wir werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen...vielen Dank nochmal :-)

Schönes Apartment in toller Lage

Das Apartment ist sehr geschmackvoll und überkomplett eingerichtet, mit tollem Blick auf den Atlantik. Die Dachterrasse, über eine Wendeltreppe erreichbar, íst unvergleichlich. Ein Strand ist ca. 5 Minuten entfernt, viele schöne Strände sind mit dem Auto in 20-30 Minuten erreichbar. Ein Supermarkt in 200 Metern. 10 tolle Golfplätze in maximal 30 Minuten erreichbar. Der Vermittler, ist jederzeit erreichbar und sehr bemüht. Fazit - es hat uns so gut gefallen, dass wir heuer wieder unseren Urlaub hier verbringen.
