The Algarve is
the region with the most hours of sunshine in Europe and a year-round holiday destination to soak up the sun!
The special
features of Carvoeiro where the beautiful resort is, that it retained its Portuguese charm despite its good tourist infrastructure.
There are no "tourist castles" or skyscrapers. The place is manageable, but yet offers a variety of restaurants
of every style and all that a nice life needs.
The
other highlight is the location on the south coast facing Africa across the
Atlantic. You will find incredible rock formations and also beautiful beaches between cliffs.
One of the world's most beautiful coastal walks
begins here. During the walk you will find repeatedly sandy bays for swim stops. For more
photos of this coastal district please see below.
When driving in both directions along the
coast, you will find small holiday village as welll as fishing villages and smaller towns. On the way to Sagres, the south-west cape
of Europe, you will find a varied coastal landscape with different characters. In easterly direction
it begins with many small romantic beaches until the country opens further until you finally get to a 10 km long sandy
beach at Faro.
Sports enthusiasts will find every conceivable water sport option: diving, fishing, sailing,surfing or just one of the excursion boat rides ... In the neighboring hotel there is a
diving school.
And .. the Algarve is one of THE golf destinations in the worldi. Almost nowhere is the density of golf courses with breathtaking views greater than here.
From the resort you can take a free transfer to one of the nearby golf
courses!
The Algarve is not only the coast, but also includes the "backyard". What makes the climate here so warm and sunny is the mountain range
to the north, keeping the clouds and rain away. But also for hicking the mountains are very
suitable. Since usually a breath of fresh air prevails
there you can make a trip there to cool down on hot
days.
From ancient ruins, well-preserved fortifications (eg Silves, just 20 minutes away by car), well-developed tourist village to larger medival-looking little villages,
everyone will find something for his taste.
Of
course, a shopping malls is not missing, where you can buy all sorts of things or you can watch movies in the original version. You find a large
mall in Albufeira about 25 minutes by car.
For families there are also a large number of water parks and aquariums.
In just 15 minutes from us there is a big one.
Also natural parks, such as the famous bird sanctuary at Olaho are
numerous.
