Monte Carvoeiro Townhouse
Review Submitted: July 6, 2009
Date of Stay: June 2009
Fantastic Apartment, very clean, nicely furnished, all mod cons such as sky box, DVD player, CD player, dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, air conditioning (which was a blessing when the temperature hit 34C).
Situated 10 minutes walk from Carvoeiro centre at the top of a steep hill thus providing great views out to sea, but not recommended for older people with walking difficulties.
The restaurants on site are of a very high calibre, certainly as good if not better than the restaurants in the centre. We have stayed at this resort on 4 occasions and we have not been dissapointed yet. Carvoeiro beach is lovely and clean, very close to the apartment and seconds from Carvoeiro centre, thus should you require lunch, or a coffee there are many options available.
Carvoeiro itself is currently undergoing a facelift, so access to the centre by car is restricted, but this should only last until mid July (2009) all being well. To explore the Algarve properly a car is a must, but if you intend to just relax around the pool or down at the beach then not essential, although transfers are expensive as the resort is around 45 mins from the airport. If you have children, Zoo Marine and Slide & Splash are not be missed as they are a great day out. For the bigger kids the Go Carting at Amancil is fantastic but maybe a little expensive.
