Perfect spot to stay in Algarve.
Carvoeiro is almost in the middle of Algarve, so it's one the best spots to stay in Algarve if you plan on exploring all of Algarve. If you are looking for a quiet area to stay in Algarve you can't beat Carvoeiro/Lagoa area. This home is in a quiet street that leads to a beautiful beach, and it is perfect in mornings to enjoy the sunrise while having your coffee. Pascal (the owner of the home we stayed at) was very helpful. He took the time to explain to us some of the nicest places to see/visit in Algarve, and was always there everytime we needed help. Thank you Pascal 👍

Great place to stay in Algarve
We really enjoyed our stay at Pascal’s house. The place was clean, comfortable, quiet, in a great location not far from beautiful beaches and from the Algarve’ s interior. It also had a very nice garden. Pascal was a very helpful host. We recommend it highly.

Lovely little getaway
Excellent location, walking distance to popular beaches and a couple of really nice restaurants, short taxi to carveriro, within easy reach of sagres, tavira and monchique by car. Pascal was lovely, met on arrival and gave information on the local area. The place had all amenities that you would require and was nice, clean and tidy. Place was nice and cool inside.

Algarves ultimate at Caramujeira
We had a wonderful stay at Pascals villa from Feb 14 to April 11, 2022. The location is set in a beautiful combination of private homes on large acreages and walking distance to the beach and cliffs. The property is very spacious with an enclosed garden giving complete privacy. Pascal was an awesome host and we will be back.

Nice house with much privacy, quiet and centrally located for exploring the Algarve
I loved my stay at this house near to the beach. Pascal is a very enthusiastic and hospitable host who lives in the other part of the house. This was very convenient when needing him and it made me feel "safe" as I travelled alone. The house has a separate gate, which can be locked. Location is very quiet and central to explore the Algarve. It has everything you need, including a large private garden, which offers you much privacy. Next time I will visit the Algarve, I will definitely stay here again. Thanks a lot Pascal!

Tolle Lage
Ein hübsches Häuschen für 2 Personen. Leider war es in der Küche nicht sauber... Es war fettig und die Griffe haben geklebt. Wir haben uns entschieden nicht zu kochen und das Geschirr erstmal zu spülen. Der Gastgeber ist ganz wunderbar und ein sehr freundlicher Mensch . Ein bißchen mehr Pflege im und um das das Haus wäre schön. nicht Küche nicht sauber

Fantastische Wohnung und großartiger Vermieter
Eine tolle Wohnung, sauber und mit allem, was man für einen schönen Urlaub braucht. Davor ist ein wunderschöner Garten mit Grill. Der hilfsbereite Vermieter ist das, was man einen perfekten Gastgeber nennt: auf jede Frage eine Antwort, ist da, wenn man ihn braucht, und ansonsten dezent im Hintergrund.

Très bien accueillis par Pascal qui a une Charmante maison, agréable, fonctionnelle et très propre. Très bien située, elle permet d’aller se promener sur les belles plages de Marhina, Benagil,Albandeira à pied. Sur les bons conseils de Pascal nous sommes aller manger à Zavial une jolie petite plage de surfeurs, puis Carrapateira où nous avons été émerveillés par le paysage ! Nous avons passé une excellente semaine. Merci Pascal. Carole et Lolo

Sehr erholsam!
Wir haben 2 Wochen in dem Ferienhaus verbracht. Wir sind von Pascal dem Besitzer sehr nett empfangen worden. Das Haus ist wie beschrieben und die Wegbeschreibung und die Korrespondenz mit dem Besitzer im Vorfeld war perfekt! Das Haus liegt eher "ländlich" und man braucht auf jeden Fall ein Auto. Wir haben aber auch sehr schöne Wanderungen direkt vom Haus aus gemacht. Es ist ein wunderbarer Wanderweg an der Küste/ Klippen zu Fuss zu erreichen! Man kann bis caroveiro gehen und immer wieder an kleinen Stränden Pause machen. Ende März war es nicht überlaufen und wir haben tolle Restaurants am Strand und in den kleinen Dörfer entdeckt. Wir haben in den 2 Wochen viel gesehen und finden die Westküste und die Strände zwischen carvoeiro und Sagres /carrtapateira super. Dies ist von dem Ferienhaus alles mit Auto innerhalb 1/2 bis 3/4 Stunde zu erreichen! Übrigens:die Zitronen von Pacsal mit Wasser gemixt:hervorragend. Wie schon in einigen Rezensionen beschrieben: Küche und Bad sind renovierungsbedürftig. Uns hat es aber nicht gestört, da wir nur 2x selber gekocht haben. Zu viert ist das Haus im Sommer sicherlich nicht zu empfehlen, da 2 Betten unter dem Dach sind und keine Klimaanlage besteht. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und geben klar eine Empfehlung.

Super für Draußen Menschen
Sehr gut gefallen haben uns die Lage des Häuschens. Man kann super gut spazieren gehen und kommt zu Fuß durch eine sehr naturbelassene Landschaft bis zum Meer und zum Küstenwanderweg. Auch toll zum Trailrunning geeignet. Der Garten ist auch wunderbar, um draußen zu essen (im Winter bis zur Mittagszeit in der Sonne), workouts zu machen oder in der Sonne zu liegen. Die Gegend ist (bis auf die unvermeindlichen kläffenden Hunde) wunderbar ruhig. Der Vermieter wohnt nebenan, ist super hilfsbereit, unaufdringlich und versorgt einem mit wertvollen Tipps. Das Haus ist von außen auch wunderschön und traditionell / landestypisch. Das Bett ist ausreichend groß für 2 Menschen und wir haben dort gut geschlafen. Der neue Pelletofen funktioniert gut und ist bis auf die morgendliche Reinigung, die man durchführen sollte, auch ganz einfach zu bedienen. Die Inneneinrichtung ist leider recht einfach und zusammengestückelt bzw. in die Jahre gekommen, insbesondere Bad und Küche. Hier darf man keine hohen Ansprüche haben. Außerdem ist das Haus aufgrund der kleinen Fenster innen recht dunkel und die elektrische Beleuchtung nicht gerade anheimelnd. So lädt es nicht gerade zum gemütlichen Verweilen an Schlechtwettertagen ein. Darüber sollte man sich im Klaren sein, falls man im Winter Urlaub macht. Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass man für wenig Geld viel geboten bekommt. Aber Designen Fans sollten sich gut überlegen, ob es das Richtige für sie ist.

Séjour formidable
Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour dans cet appartement propre, confortable et très bien équipé avec tout ce dont on a besoin. Le grand jardin avec les sièges-longues, le figuier etc. est un petit paradis calme et reposant. Nous avons adoré d'y observer et entendre chanter les oiseaux... La maison est situé près d'une route qui méne à la plage d'Albandeira (très jolie plage en proximité d'ailleurs!). C'est pour cela qu'il y a de temps en temps des voitures qui passent à còté du jardin, mais en tout c'est très calme et loin des hot-spots trop touristiques. Le proprietaire Pascal est très acceuillant, discret et vous donne volontièrement des conseils utiles sur la région. Bref: Nous gardons un très bon souvenir de notre séjour!
