Best experience ever
The location is superb, the unit is spacious and can easily accommodate two couples or even small families. Squeaking clean. The kitchen is fabulous and the terrace is inviting, yet the pool was the greatest attraction. However, it was the hosts who made our stay so special. They provided all necessary little things that made our life in their apartment absolutely trouble free. In my vast experience it was the first rental where the hosts took care of the kitchen knives and sharpened them. That speaks volumes. And of course their tips helped us explore the beautiful coast, pick local restaurants, etc. Kudos to the hosts! I highly recommend Veronica’s apartment.
We took our daughters to Portugal during the spring break. We love nature. This property is located 5mins walk to seven Hanging Valleys trail which has most beautiful views of the ocean. We would like to come again.

Everything was as expected in the condo, except for heating. There were 3 space heaters, one in each bedroom and one in the living room. They worked very well, but left the rest of the condo chilly. We were surprised at the mention of a possible extra charge for overuse of electricity. Hopefully we won’t get one!All in all, a great condo in a lovely location. Be sure to do the Seven Hanging Valleys trail - spectacular!!

A great stay!
Great stay. Very large, clean and quiet accommodation. Had everything we needed, plus the bonus of a washing machine! Very short walk to a lovely beach, (which seemed a lot less busy the times we were there than other beaches we visited) and a variety of restaurants close by.

Very comfortable apartment
The property is a good size, although the second shower room is very small with no storage units. However, the outside areas to both front and back of the property were excellent with tables, chairs, loungers and a large umbrella. Overall a very pleasant stay in an excellent location.

Fantastic rental
Stayed here for just under a week with two other friends. Veronica welcomed us with a bottle of local wine, and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. She was super responsive to any questions we had. The place itself was everything we needed and in a fantastic location for us about ~30 minutes walking distance from Carvoeiro itself, but less than 10 minutes from the Seven Hanging Valleys trailhead and beach. It made for really easy day trips to Benegil, Monchique, and Portomao. The temperature during our stay was great, so we just opened the windows at night and it was cool enough to sleep. There were plenty of fans in the bedroom closets had it been hotter, but we didn't try them out. The kitchen was very well set up (dishwasher, stove, oven, lots of dishes), the only thing worth noting in advance is you need to bring all the basics yourself (eg., salt, pepper, oil, etc). This was a bit inconvenient for us coming from North America so we didn't bring anything with us, and then ended up leaving all our leftover staples. But that was minor in our overall experience. Would stay here again in a heartbeat! Felt very reasonably priced for the value.

Amazing first time stay in the Algarve
Came over to see friends and was very impressed by the Algarve’s laided back atmosphere and beautiful weather.
The place was great and had more than enough room for our family of 5.
Great area- close drive to everything.
Neighbours were friendly.
Pool was great!
Would highly recommend!

Beautiful Lagoa
We had some difficulties with the address that was given. We came via rail from Lagos and were not able to have our Uber driver get to the location without having to call for clarification. The apartment is located in Carvoeiro area but it was a 30 minute walk to town. And The options for restaurants and shopping are limited unless you go into the town. It would have been better if we had a car. The apartment was comfortable and clean and met some nice neighbors and they were able to give us some good information on the area. Did not use the pool because the weather was not very good for that.

Spacious, clean apartment close to everything
We stayed for 6 nights at the begining of June 2022.
The condo is perfectly located to visit Benagil Coast.
There are several restaurants and grocery store within walking distance.
Carvoeiro is 5 min away, Benagil beach is 8-10 min away by car.
Albufeira is 30 min away, Faro similar, Tavira 45 min away, Sagres 40. The location was very central.
The condo is spacious, the beds are comfortable, and the kitchen is well equiped.
2 full baths is a plus, as well as a washing machine.
There is a great pool about 100 steps away.
Veronica is a great host, very pleasant and easy to contact.
We enjoyed staying here and would love to come back!

Amazing !!!!!, My kids had an awesome holiday…. perfect location....
The apartment was very clean and homely. Very nice private pool, well maintained & my girls loved it. The apartment was perfectly located, short walk to a lovely beach with a lovely restaurant, they had the most amazing desserts as well. My two girls (aged 8 and 15) loved it, lots of nice things to do around, Slide & splash water park was only a short drive away, the girls had an amazing time. Lot’s of water sports around, the visit to the caves, speed jet boat, it was a fun filled holiday. The Apartment was very clean and well maintained, comfy beds, clean towels and the kitchen was well equipped. Supermarkets were also in close proximity. Veronica was really lovely, very quick to response and provide all the local area details and recommendations. Also, very detailed in driving instructions, we had to call her a few times as this was our first visit to Portugal and she was very friendly and attentive. Above all our flight was quite late on the last day and she was also very accommodating with a late checkout, which we were very thankful for. I have already recommended the place to my friends and it’s perfect for a family holiday. we will surely be visiting again….. Thank you for making our holiday a memorable one,

Good holiday home, lovely swimming pool, near to beach.
House is set in a small development with private pool. It is a well furnished home, very dark, but that helps keep it cool inside. Beds were comfortable and the management company extremely helpful and pleasant. Set in an area of steep hills and lots of steps, it is not suitable for those less mobile. For those who are fully mobile it is a five minute walk down the hill to the beach and 10 mins hike back up to the house. There is little to do or see in the area as tourism has taken over the old charm of years ago. I would recommend this property for families, it is comfortable and spacious with a pleasant terrace.

Super séjour
L’appartement se situe dans une résidence, où il y fait bon vivre
Résidence calme, avec une grande piscine très bien entretenu
Gros point fort pour l’environnement, attention tous de même résidence excentré du centre ville et de l’agitation mais nous qui recherchions le calme c’était parfait
Porte d’entrée se situe à l’arrière de l’ensemble du bâtiment lorsque que nous garons sur le parking
Entrée / départ très facile avec le système de la boite à clé
L’appartement est très spacieux et beaucoup plus grand a ce qu’il parait sur les photos, 2 salle de bains
Literie très confortable, très bien équipée, logement propre
Petit point faible, changement de la plaque de cuisson car celle actuelle fais le job mais faut être patient et le manque de Clim au sein du logement
