A few steps takes you to one of the five pool areas and a 5 minutes stroll downhill to the Blue Flag beach and the manyo cafes, restaurants, bars and shops the village has to offer. Ideally situated for a great holiday. Car hire is not necessary. Alojamento Local Registered 55721/AL

We live in Carvoeiro and manage our apartment personally, we are on hand to answer any questions or give any information, hints or tips to ensure you enjoy your stay.

THE APARTMENT
The lovely BLUE FRONT DOOR opens onto a generous entrance HALLWAY, giving access to the whole apartment, which has WI-FI throughout.

TWO LARGE BEDROOMS (one with King-sized bed the other with Twin beds) both have fitted wardrobes and air conditioning. The main SHOWER ROOM has been completely renovated with a large walk-in shower, which has both overhead rain and hand held shower-heads. The second SHOWER ROOM also has a walk-in shower area and rain shower-head.

For babies, a travel cot and folding baby bath are available on request.

The FITTED KITCHEN is complete with all the necessary white goods, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, ceramic hob, electric oven and microwave. All the small appliances, toaster, kettle, juicer, filter coffee machine and coffee plunger are there too. The cupboards and drawers are full of what you would expect to find in your own home. We also provide a free generous Welcome Pack for stays of 7 days or longer. There is a washing machine, clothes drying area, iron and board.

Facing onto the wide sunny terrace the air conditioned LOUNGE/ DINING ROOM is light bright and airy, very comfortably furnished and complete with wood burning stove for those chilly winter evenings. There is a well-stocked bookcase, TV (with over 165 channels including Dutch, French and German) as well as a DVD player (many films to choose from) a music centre and board games to ensure that there is something for everyone to enjoy.

The SPACIOUS TERRACE runs the full width of the apartment and offers a degree of PRIVACY being set back from its neighbours, it is well lit and also lucky enough to have an open view and garden area, so is a good distance from the pathway. With hardwood table and chairs this is an ideal place to dine al fresco or enjoy relaxing in the zero gravity reclining chairs at any time of the day. Should you feel too hot and need more shade there is also a wind-out toldo (sun shade).

Because this is a ground floor apartment, access to the pool is directly from the terrace, while first floor apartments have to come to the road and then walk around the block to access the pool.

All household LINEN is provided and changed weekly. We also provide towels for the pool and separate ones to take to the beach with mats. The apartment has a LAPTOP SAFE; we do not charge for its use.

There are five SWIMMING POOLS in the complex (one heated in winter), all with separate children’s pool, sun loungers and umbrellas.
There are two TENNIS COURTS on site, hire from Reception.
CAR PARKING on site.

HIGH SEASON JULY AND AUGUST
We try to be as flexible as possible so we do not have a fixed changeover day.
However we ask guests to please book so that your holiday starts or ends at a previous booking or at least leaves a minimum 7 nights either side of your booking.

TOURIST TAX
Certain provinces in Portugal are now charging a Tourist Tax, Lagoa is one of those areas. This has been implemented with effect from 12th May 2024 for everyone aged 13 and over. The tax is €2 per person per night for up to 7 nights.
Because of how the tax is formulated we can't just easily add it to each booking, but will collect it from you and give you a receipt when you arrive.

For LONG STAY WINTER GUESTS, special rates are available, which we base on two people sharing, and happily welcome their visitors for a small extra charge. Electricity is charged at cost between 1st November and 31st March. The big pool is heated in the winter months, usually from October to April.

We would like to share an email from recent guests:
"The greeting we had from Rory was friendly and welcoming and gave us lots of information for our stay, to open the fridge and be greeted by the staples to create a small snack and a cup of tea was lovely and for this, we thank you. The apartment itself is so well equipped with everything and more than we could need. The comfort of the beds, the lounge area and the well-equipped kitchen made our stay fantastic. We will highly recommend it to our friends and family. We have stayed in different countries with lots of bookings through Home Away but yours is the best so far, by far.
Thank you for playing a part in our lovely holiday.
Best wishes Lisa and Tim."

Another Fantastic Visit

 By Amanda Robertson on 13-Jun-2025

We had another fantastic stay in this home away from home. Rory & Jane are just the best hosts. From the arrival treats left for us to their helpful recommendations and great hospitality. The apartment has everything needed for a lovely break with extremely comfortable beds. I would recommend (if only we could keep it secret) a stay here. What a lovely relaxing break we had. We shall be back.

Our boys loved it!

We had an amazing week! The apartment is fantastic, great size for us and our two boys. Great location, close to the beach, cafes and restaurants! The boys loved the pool too!

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour

 By Sylvie on 25-Jul-2022

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour chez Rory et Jane ! L''appartement, spacieux, est très fonctionnel. Il est très bien placé dans le village de Carvoeiro à proximité de la plage, du sentier douanier et des restaurants. Rory et Jane sont à l''écoute et nous les remercions encore pour ces petites attentions de bienvenue !

Thank you for the personal touches

 By Barry on 06-Jul-2022

Myself and my family stayed here for a week and it was ideal for what we wanted. A pool on your door step, and just up the hill from the centre of town and of course the famous and beautiful beach. We would highly recommend you stay here for the ease at which we found everything. Both Jane and Rory were so helpful, arranging airport transfers and calling over before we left. Thanks for making our first holiday abroad in two and half years so enjoyable.
