We had the best time staying here. Location is great and we could easily walk into the town.Communication was very easy, and we were able to check in early.We were 2 families staying here with 4 young children and the pool was perfect- we spent a lot of time enjoying it! It was well equipped with everything we needed and we didn’t expect it to be cleaned during our stay! We would love to stay here again :)

Overall a very good stay. One bedroom’s aircon system was broken and a portable system was provided, although this did not cool the room sufficiently. New aircon unit was fitted on the Thursday of our stay. Pool recirc system also tripped out midweek and it was switched back on the Friday afternoon. Alarm went off twice for no apparent reason. All small niggles, without effecting the overall enjoyment of our stay. We have stayed here 4 times now and have always found communication with Rose and David exceptionally easy. The distance from the villa to the centre of Carvoeiro a problem for myself now at 70 however a taxi back up the hill very reasonable at 4 - 7 euros. Overall, lovely villa with spacious grounds, nice pool and table tennis table. All in all, great for a quiet family holiday

Great stay for families

We had a lovely time at the villa, it was very well equipped and plenty of room to spread out. We really enjoyed using the pool and having the water heated makes a great difference. The property was really clean and tidy, and we would definitely recommend a stay here. Plenty of good bars and restaurants in the local town- about a 20minute walk.

The villa was amazing and had everything we needed. We arrived and there was a wonderful welcome pack which was much appreciated. We were two families of 4 with teenage children. The pool area was great, and the table tennis entertained all of us. It’s good that each room has access to its own bathroom so no arguments when trying to get ready to go out. The air con worked well, and we loved the coffee machine. I bought a box of capsules from the UK but there were some already there when we arrived. Thhe pictures don’t do it justice.Communication before we arrived and with the agent was brilliant. We couldn’t work out how to open the bike shed and they came following day to show us. Used the bikes a couple of times but most of the time we walked. We would walk to the big supermarket (around 20 mins) and would then get an uber back with all the shopping or would walk back if we could carry it. There is a local restaurant on the way back that was very reasonable if you get thirsty. You can walk to the local restaurants of Caraveiro and the beach. 15-20 mins. Plenty of nice places to eat. I would definitely return again.

Another great holiday!

This is a villa that has everything that we want! Three excellent en-suite bedrooms plus one with a separate bathroom. Comfortable lounge and dining area and a well stocked kitchen with two fridges, plus washing facilities. There is also a well stocked library which our 17 year old granddaughter took advantage of. Add to this an excellent swimming pool and outdoor area and close proximity to the town, supermarkets and golf and you can see why we are regulars at the villa!

Another brilliant stay!

We enjoyed our stay so much in 2017 that we came again this year. The villa has everything needed for a great holiday for ten of us including 4 children, 2 of whom were under 3. The gated pool is particularly good for keeping young children safe. Having two fridges in the kitchen is also really useful (keeps the wine and beer cool!) The 4 bedrooms are all air conditioned and the maid keeps the whole villa very clean and changes towels and bedding regularly. Everybody thoroughly enjoyed their stay and we look forward to visiting again

Another visit to a marvellous villa !

This is the third time that we have rented this villa - that shows how much we love it. The facilities are excellent, the villa is immaculate as are the gardens and the pool area (with table tennis table). Two large fridges and a freezer are particularly useful, and the newly updated bathroom is very nice. There are excellent restaurants within a couple of minutes drive and three supermarkets within less than ten minutes drive Carvoeiro is also less than ten minutes drive though parking was more difficult this year. Our party had grandparents, four further adults and children ranging from 18 months to 12 years old and we all love staying at this villa.

Lovely villa set in a beautiful garden

We loved this villa which is set in the outskirts of Carvoiero but still only a very pleasant 20 minute walk into town (and that’s for the oldies). The pool is fantastic - and a really big. Villa is very well equipped and all the rooms are a very good size. Bathrooms are lovely. It was a delight sitting on the terrace looking at the garden. We ate at the large table there - it was wonderful. All bedrooms have AC which makes for a very good night’s sleep - temp was reaching 45 in the sun when we were there. My only improvement would be AC in the living room. Would definitely book again.

Loved this Villa

All our party loved this villa and consider ourselves so lucky to experience staying here. Our only disapointment is that we are unable to book it again next year, as all school holiday dates are already booked! The villa is well maintained and is surrounded by mature gardens with a large variety of colourful plants and trees. A very peaceful and relaxing setting. The kitchen is well equipped and it was a bonus having a second fridge iin the utility room along with the washing machine. All the bedrooms were spacious with plenty of storage and comforable beds. The bathrooms are all excellent and there was plenty of hot water. The outside eating area is lovely and is cool throughout the heat of the day, only catching the setting sun for about an hour at the end of the day.. The 'icing on the cake' is the pool which we had heated even though we were staying in August. Lovely and warm whether we swam early or late. Luxury!The pool inflatables let by previous guests were a bonus.

We were a family of 6, all adults over 18. We really enjoyed the villa in particular the pool, and table tennis. As per listing and previous reviews it is about 15 min walk from the nearest shop and restaurants on the outskirts of the town. We found that fine most of the time - actually prefer the peace and quiet to being in town - but once or twice - in extreme heat, or late night we used Über to get home which is very cheap and available. Our group availed of par 3 golf, very close by, plus wine tasting also within 10/15 minutes by Uber. The villa is lovely. All mod cons, really nice bathrooms in particular. The photos do not do it justice in my opinion. Thank you for everything. The cleaner/pool guy/Manager were all most helpful and attentive without being obtrusive.

Tranquil Spacious Villa

Our second visit to Casa Luessa and it was great to be back. Lovely spacious comfortable Villa with all mod cons (coffee machine is a great addition) comfy beds and the refurbished bathrooms are great. The standout feature of this Villa is outside though. The Villa is set in a huge well stocked garden with mature trees, it’s very peaceful. The pool is in a walled enclosure which catches the sun and shelters you from any wind. We had the pool heated as it was April and used the cover when not in use and the temperature was perfect. It’s really not a bad walk into town, only 20 mins walk to Cafe Fino for a great breakfast and 5 more will get you to the beach, all down hill if you pick the right route and a taxi only costs 5 euros if you don’t fancy the hill on the way back. Gaby the property manager was super responsive and the couple of issues we had were resolved super quick. Rose is a great owner with easy communication. Hope we’ll be back soon.

Another year, another great holiday!

So, why do we return year after year? Answer - the villa completely satisfies our requirements for a great holiday. Beautifully presented and maintained (love the new bathroom). Great maid and property manager who quickly respond to any issues/requests. Safe, gated pool which is excellent for all ages. Located close to supermarkets (5 mins in car) and the same to get to Carvoeiro centre though parking is hit and miss. Ten minutes to a really good water park, 15 minutes to another and 20-/5 minutes to the excellent Zoomarine. For golfers Pestana Pinta and Gramacho are a ten to 15 minute drive whilst Silves is less than 20 minutes away. All the three are excellent courses and have staged different Championships eg Portuguese Seniors, Portuguese Women’s. Add shopping at the Algarve centre, excellent beaches nearby(eg. Praia Grande which is great for children and has inflatable’s) and it is clear that all ages can be catered for nearby. We have just returned today and already I am being hassled by the family to book again- what better recommendation can I give ?!

Sad to be home!

We spent a week here as two families, including 3 teenage boys and a strong willed 9 year old girl! All of us loved the location and villa. The pool is a fantastic size, and the kids spent hours happily wrestling with the amazing inflatables. The house and garden reflect the space of the pool. The place is spotless and has everything you need, including some food and wine on arrival, this caring attention to detail made us feel very lucky indeed. On the first night we witnessed the opening of a rare flower; in the moonlight, on the terrace. It only flowers once a year and so we knew we were in for a treat! It is a short walk to the town and beach, although a taxi home after would be a good idea if you want to avoid teenage moaning! The local beach was the best one in the area but we did have a fantastic day out at Beliche beach on the west coast, well worth the drive. Restaurant recommendations were excellent too, and cooking at home was easy due to the well stocked kitchen. A wonderful place to stay.

Wonderful

What a wonderful villa- beautifully kept and managed. We travelled with our adult children and their partners and enjoyed a week at the villa relaxing and visiting the area. We walked into town a few times getting a taxi back which cost 5 euros per taxi. There were eight of us but easily got two taxis when needed. Some of our group were happy to walk home though at the end of an evening. The villa was in an excellent position- quiet away from the crowds but close enough to everything. We enjoyed sea kayaking from Bengali beach, a super fast speed boat ride to see dolphins out of Lagos and the younger members of our group loved the nearby Slide and Splash park. The bbq was great and the villa equipped for all our needs. The cleaner came on Tuesday and Thursday and kept the place beautifully. The pool guy came during the week to keep that tip top too and we really enjoyed our time lazing around the pool. We paid for the pool to be heated and enjoyed it warm enough to get straight in without initial shock. We took a rental car (9seater) from the airport and found the villa easily. We were gutted to find that the villa is already booked out for our summer holiday period next year, but it is certainly one we would come back to and recommend- a wonderful find so thanks for such a super stay in such a fantastic home from home.

About the host

Hosted by Rose Bain

Fell in love with the Algarve around 20 years ago during family holidays with the kids. Now they are grown up its our time to enjoy this wonderful location and its brilliant climate. We picked Carvoeiro as it has the perfect balance of being busy but not too busy in peak season and quiet but not too quiet in the depths of winter.

Why they chose this property

We loved the space, the peace and quiet and the proximity to the bustling village of Carvoeiro. We have tried to upgrade the eco-friendliness of the villa without losing its authentic rustic charm and we hope to continually increase these efforts as funds become available. Solar panels on the roof heat all of the hot water while panels on the garden generate electricity. The external wall insulation and electric shutters lower the need for air-conditioning saving energy and offering a quieter more peaceful sleep.
The gardens were created by professionals and a joy to see at any time of year.
