About this property
Quintal da Oliveira, charming traditional cottage in the heart of Carvoeiro
Stay in the heart of Carvoeiro in a beautifully modernised traditional Algarve cottage, just an 8 minute walk from the beach and only a few minutes from restaurants, cafés and shops.
Quintal da Oliveira combines the character of a traditional village home with a stylish, comfortable interior. The bright open plan living, dining and kitchen area opens through large sliding glass doors onto a secluded private courtyard centred around a mature olive tree, with outdoor dining, barbecue and outdoor shower.
The cottage sleeps up to four. Above the living area is a charming mezzanine sleeping loft with a queen size bed and lower ceiling height in parts. On the ground floor, a separate walk through bedroom with two single bunk beds makes the cottage particularly well suited to families with children. The spacious modern bathroom is accessed through this room.
The cottage has air conditioning, a fireplace, high speed WiFi up to 120 Mbps, cable TV, a Nespresso coffee machine and high quality Smeg appliances.
Quintal da Oliveira sits close to the main road into Carvoeiro in the traditional village style. Traffic is generally slow moving, the cottage has double glazed windows, and the private rear courtyard provides a peaceful outdoor space away from the street.
There is no private parking, but with the beach, restaurants, cafés and shops all within easy walking distance, Carvoeiro can be enjoyed without needing to drive.
A distinctive little Algarve home for couples and small families who value character, privacy and a genuinely central location.

Very nice, cosy place, a short walk from the beach and amenities. Everything was very straightforward and easy with checking in, it was very clean and there was a very high level of attention to detail with small things that made our stay really enjoyable.

We had a great time at Katharine’s place, the house was perfect, clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was great with shops a very short stroll from the house, parking across the road and the beach less than ten minutes away, I would recommend!

This place was ideal for an Algarve vacation. The place was as described. Walkable to the beach and restaurants and shops on the main street. The enclosed patio with outdoor shower was a great place to enjoy the outdoors away from the crowds. Parking during the day was a little difficult in peak season but we were able to find parking in the evening. Had trouble with the lock opening when we arrived but Katharine was very responsive and got someone over to fix it asap. Overall would recommend for an easily accessible, convenient, clean stay in the Algarve.

Lovely cottage although a little too noisy for us.
The location was great and the cottage the right size for us however a lot noisier than we expected which interrupted our sleep and we would not look to rebook for this reason.
The toilet roll holder was rusty and very old - slightly off putting when the rest of the cottage was lovely.
More pillows on the bed - a least two per person.

casa indipendente con tutti i comfort
Funzionale ed accogliente
Purtroppo la strada adiacente è trafficata e l'insonorizzazione non è perfetta , soprattutto quella della porta in ingresso.

Hyggelig leilighet. Privat. Fin liten bakhage med utedusj
Le gite est décoré avec gout et est très bien situé. A dix minutes à pied de la plage et à proximité de beaucoup de commerces et restaurants.
La localisation est top pour découvrir les environs.
Néanmoins, plusieurs points négatifs à relever. Il s'agit d'un gite plutot bruyant la nuit et qui n est pas équipé de volets roulants.
Du coup beaucoup trop de lumiere penetre la nuit dans les lieux et ce n'est pas pratique pour les gros dormeurs.
Autre problématique : on est obligé de passer par la chambre enfants pour se rendre aux toilettes et dans la salle de bain, ce qui n'est pas pratique.
Enfin, manque un micro ondes.
Ceci dit, nous avons passé un super séjour !
Néanmoins
