Travel: The development is 45 minutes drive from Faro airport. A hire car is not essential, but will enable guests to visit many of the more secluded beaches and villages nearby. A taxi from the airport will cost about £35. From Lisbon, Carvoeiro is about 4 hours drive. For those who do not wish to drive while on holiday, there are frequent buses and cheap taxis into the town from Rocha Brava, and courtesy coaches to the water-slide park (Slide and Splash) which is just the other side of the town.

Rocha Brava Complex: Rocha Brava is a beautiful villa complex set in lovely grounds on the clifftops near Carvoeiro. Among its facilities are a 24-hour reception office, and a small supermarket. For eating and drinking there is a bar/cafe with an Internet cafe upstairs, a restaurant, and a pool side bar. For fun there is the four court tennis centre with a resident professional for coaching sessions, and an adjoining gym. There is also a holistic healing centre for a well-earned massage after the exercise! For children, there is a playground and an indoor childrens room with table tennis, and organised kids activities in summer. There are three main pools (one of them with a waterfall) and all with paddling pools, open to all guests.

Great holiday, just as described

Review Submitted: October 3, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
Arthur was very helpful from my initial enquiry providing quick responses to any questions that I asked. The apartment was in a great position near to the large pool area which we enjoyed and had everything that you could want on a family holiday. We will hopefully return again in the future

Great apartment and resort

Review Submitted: September 21, 2010 Date of Stay: September 2010
I stayed in this apartment in September 10, the resort is fantastic with three good pools and a variety of restuarants on the complex or within walking distance, the apartment is situated close to the reception and the main pool, it can be quite noisy from the bar until 12pm however this did not bother us at all. The apartment is in great condition and has everything you need provided. All in all i would say that i would have no hestitaion in returning to the resort and apartment in the future.
