We visited this Hotel in March 2006 and it was just brilliant, the room we had was spacious and very clean, with a lovely balcony. The bed was comfortable, the room had great curtains to block the light from coming into the room in the mornings, and there was no noise of a nighttime either - it is, without doubt, the best weeks sleep I have ever had on a holiday.
The breakfast was adequate, nothing amazing, but there was plenty to keep you going. We took the B&B option, so I cannot comment on the evening meals, but there are restaurants and cafes within 100 yards of this hotel, so you will not need to go far to find something. Carvoeiro has many restaurants, giving different options, seafood is fresh and plentiful, but you can also have italian, thai, chinese, indian, plus there are lots of restaurants serving grilled steaks, chicken, lamb, with chips etc. plus various pizzerias and also cafes for snacks and coffees.
We found the hotel staff to be really friendly and before we went out to eat each evening we made use of the hotel bar to play pool and sample some of their cocktails.
There is a supermarket, about 150 yards down the hill from the hotel where you can purchase general things like water, biscuits, sweets etc., and if you are lucky, like we were, sun tan lotion - the sun was shinning the entire week and we came back with tans.
Parking is easy with a large car park directly outside the hotel. If you like walking - as we do - there are beautiful walks along the clifftops and the scenery is quite dramatic.
Will we be returning - Yes in November 2006.
