Great place to stay in Algarve

We really enjoyed our stay at Pascal’s house. The place was clean, comfortable, quiet, in a great location not far from beautiful beaches and from the Algarve’ s interior. It also had a very nice garden. Pascal was a very helpful host. We recommend it highly.

Perfect stay at the Algarve

We had a really great stay and time in Pascals accommodation. Pascal is really nice, respectful and always reachable. If you want, he gives you a lot of tips where you find beautiful places to visit or to see. The house is clean and you have everything you need. We missed nothing and enjoyed the time really much. A car is definitely necessary.

Perfect accommodation and location for our early summer break

The accommodation was clean and spacious and had all the equipment you’d need. Lovely patio and garden area. Quiet and private. 20 minute walk to the coast through open land where there are beautiful cliff top walks and found a lovely secluded beach. Pascal was very helpful and thoughtful (as we arrived during a national power outage.) He also gave us lots of advice on places to visit locally. Overall very enjoyable place to explore the Algarve from.

Perfect spot to stay in Algarve.

Carvoeiro is almost in the middle of Algarve, so it's one the best spots to stay in Algarve if you plan on exploring all of Algarve. If you are looking for a quiet area to stay in Algarve you can't beat Carvoeiro/Lagoa area. This home is in a quiet street that leads to a beautiful beach, and it is perfect in mornings to enjoy the sunrise while having your coffee. Pascal (the owner of the home we stayed at) was very helpful. He took the time to explain to us some of the nicest places to see/visit in Algarve, and was always there everytime we needed help. Thank you Pascal 👍

zwei schöne Wochen an der Algarve

Die Wohnung ist sehr einfach, hat aber alles was man für den Urlaub braucht (allerdings keine Klimaanlage). Der Garten ist nicht einsehbar, bietet daher volle Privatsphäre. Es gibt aber viel Verkehr an der Straße. Pascal ist ein sehr netter Vermieter und gibt viele Tipps für die Erkundung der Region. Insgesamt ein schöner Urlaub.

Tolle Lage

Ein hübsches Häuschen für 2 Personen. Leider war es in der Küche nicht sauber... Es war fettig und die Griffe haben geklebt. Wir haben uns entschieden nicht zu kochen und das Geschirr erstmal zu spülen. Der Gastgeber ist ganz wunderbar und ein sehr freundlicher Mensch . Ein bißchen mehr Pflege im und um das das Haus wäre schön. nicht Küche nicht sauber

Fantastische Wohnung und großartiger Vermieter

Eine tolle Wohnung, sauber und mit allem, was man für einen schönen Urlaub braucht. Davor ist ein wunderschöner Garten mit Grill. Der hilfsbereite Vermieter ist das, was man einen perfekten Gastgeber nennt: auf jede Frage eine Antwort, ist da, wenn man ihn braucht, und ansonsten dezent im Hintergrund.
