This is a luxurious, quiet, airy and spacious first floor apartment, which is part of the popular Monte Dourado resort in central Carvoeiro, literally a couple of minutes walk from the iconic beach, fabulous restaurants and shops. Occupying one of the best positions at the top of the hill, the lounge, master bedroom, terrace and fabulous, furnished exclusive and private roof terrace (60 metres square) all have wonderful sea views. To give an idea how close we are you can hear the waves crashing on the shore and see the beach from the terrace.

Having undergone a total refurbishment, the flat benefits from modern bathrooms with electric heated towel rails, a new kitchen, air conditioning /heating/ solar water heating, new tiling throughout and all new furnishings.

We love this apartment. It's roomy and fully equipped, with a lovely balcony and a great view in a great location. The view from the roof terrace is extra special.Best of all, we can just live in it. The beds are very comfortable, as are the settees and the outdoor seating.Also, the kitchen is fully equipped and easy to work in, meaning that it's possible to cook a meal and have a change from eating out.Cleanliness is also excellent, and stepping into the apartment after a long journey is just liking arriving at home, but with a better view.Also, the owners are very friendly, very responsive and very helpful, which is the icing on the cake.Oh, and having the best pool in Monte Dourado just across the road is very, very handy.

Very nice apartment. We enjoyed gorgeous sunsets from rooftop terrace. Short walk to town and beach. Wish we had known we needed to bring our own hand soap, dishwashing detergent, etc. We arrived late the first night and had a hard time finding those items in the local stores at first. Not a big deal but guests should be aware that the apartment is not supplied like other rental apartments or hotel rooms.

Fantastic stay. From booking to departure our host was extremely helpful and responded very quickly to all queries. cheCk in process was easy. We had an early flight but we were able to leave bags at reception. The apartment was very spacious and the outside spaces were perfect and gave beautiful views of the sea. The apartment is a perfectly located next to one of the complex pools. The complex itself was immaculate and perfect for families but did not feel crowded. Short walk into the town with plenty of restaurant choices. Looking forward to our stay next year.

Fabulous two bedroom apartment in Carvoeiro with ocean view and private top deck patio!

We had a wonderful month long stay in this fabulous two bedroom apartment. Everything was seamless from the beginning when booking the property with Sarah to checking out with the office. Sarah was extremely easy to communicate with and so helpful prior to and throughout our stay. The property was exactly as listed, very comfortable with many extras including a well stocked kitchen. The king size bed was very comfortable as well as the twin beds in the extra bedroom. The apartment was spotless clean when we arrived and we loved the bi-weekly cleaning service (full cleaning service once/week and partial cleaning mid-week). The Office staff of the complex were very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We loved the ocean view and sunsets from the private top patio as well as the charcoal BBQ. Also there was always parking available - a big plus while staying in Carvoeiro.All in all a 10 out of 10! We hope to return.

A gorgeous property with views to die for

From the moment you drive into Carvoeiro you can sense you've picked the most picturesque Algarve city to stay. This property added immeasurably to our 8 wandering days. Modern kitchen was well outfitted to meet every need. Baths and beds were clean, modern and spotless. No rental "nicks and scratches" in this wonderful place. Both the balcony and the roof top deck stole the show, many hours spent whiling away gazing at the ocean or quiet village below. Easy albeit it very hilly walk to town, the apartment is within walking distance of most local restaurants (and their are some god ones.) While there was a local grocery in Carvoeiro, we found that a trip to close by Apolónia Supermercados provided the basics and luxury items. The apartment provides easy walking access to many great coastal hikes and a short drive to some of the most famous hikes in the Algarve. I can't imagine staying anywhere else for an Algarve holiday!

Our recent stay in Carvoeiro

We stayed at this lovely place for a week. The hills to get back up from the center of town are not for the faint of heart but a quick taxi ride is always available if needed. That said, the views are spectacular and worth it. The unit was clean and very comfortable and the resort staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

Sensational Stay

This property is fabulous. My wife and I stayed for 6 nights at the height of the summer season. The apartment was large enough for four to six. The kitchen was well equipped, clean and well set up. The washing machine worked wonders and the porch was large enough for a drying rack to be set up with room to eat at the outside table and relax and watch the sunrise/sunset. Clothes dried really fast. The air conditioning works really well despite the elevated temperatures of late August. The check in and check out procedure were easy and the property company was able to set up outings that were enjoyable. It is only a short walk down the shops and markets in the town. One word of warning, the hill that this property tops is no joke... even the twenty somethings would take breaks while hiking back up the hill. The pools were terrrific and offered a break from the heat and were clearly loved by the kids. We loved our stay so much we are looking to become owners of an apartment in the Monte Dourado development (it's location is not nearly as nice as this one though).

Absolutely wonderful!

We had a fantastic stay in Monte Dourado - the apartment was just brilliant, in a wonderful complex in Carvoeiro. The apartment is so well situated, with fantastic views down towards Praia de Carvoeiro. Everything you could need is in the beautifully decorated apartment. The private roof terrace is excellent with large table and comfy chairs, brolly, bbq, and comfy sunbeds, commanding glorious panoramic views of the town. The kitchen is very well stocked with washing machine, dishwasher, cooking utensils etc. The apartment is very comfortable, and the balcony is large with plenty of space for eating out and relaxing whilst overlooking the sea! The town can be accessed via the road entrance or via stairs down to Restaurant Hill, and you can literally be in the main areas of Carvoeiro within minutes. The town is buzzing with great restaurants and bars, offering a brilliant choice. We had two great meals in the beautiful Villa Medici and visited the new Sky Bar that overlooks the square. There is a huge choice of restaurants, offering everything from high-end fine dining through to takeaway and snacks, so you’ll always be able to find somewhere you like. Just a word of warning - check your bill before paying as we had a few experiences of being overcharged - not at Villa Medici, but at a couple of other venues in town. This can happen anytime, anywhere., so is good practice. There are loads of things to do in the area - plenty of pretty towns to visit within a short drive, such as Lagos, Alvor, Ferragudo, and loads of beaches nearby, many activities, water parks, shopping. You’ll not be bored!!! Monte Dourado is a fantastic complex, which is beautifully kept, with multiple swimming pools with loads of sunbeds, tennis courts, lovely gardens and a helpful reception. The gardens and pools are very well maintained. There is no bar or entertainment onsite, which is a huge positive as it keeps the complex quiet and is great for families and couples. Thank you for letting us use your apartment - we loved it.

Super apartment & as great as our 2019 visit

We enjoyed another 10 days staying in this lovely apartment. Top attraction for us is the private roof top terrace where we spend most of the day with a drink in one hand and a kindle in the other. Everything is very clean & comfortable. The walk back up the hill from the town in the evening became a bit of a stumbling block for me this time (ankle osteoarthritis) so we just called Ubers & went to some lovely restaurants further out. Will definitely go back. Thanks Sarah

Great two bedroom, two bath villa with nice balcony and roof top terrace with wonderal ocean views. Nice size for two couples and the pool close by was welcome with the warmer temperatures we experienced. Fresh towels and bedding provided by the complex was nice. The use of the kitchen for many meals was beneficial and the walk to the downtown was handy....a bit of an uphill climb back but that was good exercise! Loved the atmosphere and the people in Carvoeiro. We were very happy with our stay and would recommend this villa for anyone wishing to stay on the Algarve.
