The neighborhood:
This property is located in Carvoeiro, this small fishing village is located in the municipality of Lagoa, an Algarve village cut by cliffs in front of the sea, the peaceful and welcoming atmosphere of Carvoeiro makes it an ideal place for families or friends during the summer. Right next to the beach you will find a wide range of restaurants, bars, and esplanades where you can enjoy great Algarvian gastronomy, drink a glass of wine or a cocktail, surrounded by an essence where you can breathe the sea air.
Getting around:
Although everything in and around Carvoeiro just steps away from the apartment, the Algarve has much more to offer!
Since public transportation is either non-existent or very slow, I highly recommend RENTING A CAR and exploring the Algarve on your own. Use the FREE PARKING PLACES directly in front of the apartment building and explore the Algarve stress-free and without timetables.
I will be happy to help you with a rental car recommendation.
For those who don't want to drive, there is a bus stop only 200m away! From there the 'Cliff Route' bus will take you to several beautiful beaches in the area, the small town of LAGOA, and one of the most beautiful fishing villages in the Algarve: FERRAGUDO! You can buy tickets on the bus.
