Villa Carlivo

Very nice villa, in very good condition throughout. All members of our party were very happy with the villa, and their respective rooms. Very good communication via Helen during the booking process, and Lisa during our stay. More shaded areas by the pool would have been good during our particular stay, due to the hot and sunny weather!

Our second time staying in this villa and enjoyed this stay as much as our first. We love the location and the privacy afforded by this villa. Spotlessly clean and all facilities and more are here. Particularly love the option of the heated pool. Nothing.

Excellent service & a beautiful villa

We went to Villa Carlivo for a training camp, and had the most wonderful time. The Villas Duma team was lovely and the cleaning people did a great job, positively surprising us by cleaning everything after a week. The location is in a quiet and safe area and has everything you need within walking distance. We will definitely be back! Keep being awesome!

Villa Carlivo

Another fabulous holiday with excellent customer service from everyone we had contact with at Villas Duma. The villa itself is large, private, well kept and very well equipped, a real home from home. If your looking for a peaceful break in the sun this is the place to come. We can't think of anything that could have made it better

Great relaxing retreat

We are grandparents who entertained our daughter, husband and grandkids, 11 and 13. We all enjoyed the location, spaciousness and recreational activities at the villa. It was close to beaches and restaurants. Lots of bathrooms and towels provided for everyone. The kitchen was large with all needed appliances and a new washing machine was installed while we were there. What a great spot!

A Second Stay!

This is the second year in a row that we have stayed in this villa because, in our opinion, it ticks every box for an outstanding family holiday with a young family. 1.The coffee machine leaks water. 2. More baking trays would be helpful.

Perfect

From booking the Villa to being checked in and checked out the process was faultless. 4 couples stayed for a 60th birthday and golf week and a fantastic time was had by all. We had hired cars for the week but ordering the use of Villadumas taxi and ubers is so easy and cheap. The Villa itself with 5 bedrooms and 4 en suites was why we chose Villa Carlivo and the area was quiet. Perfect. Thank you Villasduma we will be back.

Repeat Visitor

Fourth year at this villa and it's just as impressive as the first time we visited. Already booked for 2026. We love the actual villa itself and it's rural location which adds to the villa's ambience. Big shout out to all the staff especially Helen in reservations who looks after us so well each year. Nothing at all, it's just fab. Would just like a cafateirre that was previously always there. Coffee pod machine is grand but no substitute for a nice pot of coffee!!!

Beautiful villa

It was a beautiful villa, lots of outdoor and indoor space. Beds very comfortable, villa had air con and good wifi. Fully equipped kitchen, lots of cabinet space with a useful dishwasher. The pool was amazing. Located in what seemed a quiet area with a small 10 minute walk to local shops and 30 min walk to beach. Good communications from Villasdumas our agent was called Sara. We all had a wonderful time and we wouldnt hesitate in booking again. More parasols around the pool for shade,change of pillows.

Absolutely loved it

Perfect family holiday, the villa was fab, clean and modern, the pool was just the right size for a swim and splash about. Miguel was really helpful with the check in and out. The location of the villa was ideal, for our party of 7 family members, it was out of the way and the nearby restaurants where a 10 min walk if that. I was worried that we’d be in the centre of all the Brits on tour but we weren’t, but if you wanted the nightlife it was a 15 mins drive away. The local people were so friendly and helpful too, first time in Portugal and I would definitely go back, probably to this villa too. Such a memorable holiday. The only minor point was that a fair few of the sun loungers were broken and should have been replaced.

Um refúgio perfeito onde adoramos sempre voltar

Não é a primeira vez que ficamos nesta casa, e com certeza não será a última. Cada estadia é especial! A localização é perfeita, perto de tudo, mas com uma tranquilidade única onde só se ouve o silêncio da natureza. É sempre um refúgio que nos faz sentir em casa e ao mesmo tempo em férias. Já faz parte das nossas melhores memórias!
