Carpe Diem
in Carvoeiro , Algarve
- Ten-minute walk to shops, bars and restaurants
- Close to a golden sandy beach
- Spacious and modern
A gorgeous necklace of sandy beaches and hidden grottoes, a thriving café culture and postcard views round every corner – it’s easy to see why so many people fall in love with Carvoeiro. And when it comes to choosing a place to stay, the Villa Carpe Diem ticks all the right boxes. It’s just a ten-minute walk away from shops, bars and restaurants (up and down a steep hill), and equally close to the golden sandy beach that simply cries out to be lounged upon. Built in 2006, the villa itself is bright, spacious and modern. There are four bedrooms with the same number of bathrooms to match, which means eight can stay here comfortably. Soak up the spine-tingling sea views from the roof terrace. Take a dip in the private pool. Or stretch out on a sunbed and relax. As the sun slips into the horizon, spend balmy evenings sipping wine as you prepare your dinner on the sizzling barbecue. Don’t fancy cooking? Then a short downhill walk will bring you to the heart of Carvoeiro, where you’ll find plenty of meal-time options. Take your pick from Portuguese, Chinese, Indian and Italian. Plus, of course, you’ll find lots of places dishing up flavours of home. Well-equipped and in a great location, the Villa Carpe Diem promises you a relaxing and comfortable stay in this beautiful coastal gem.

Your guide to Carvoeiro, Algarve
“Bursting with character, this dazzling whitewashed fishing village is the place to head for heaps of Portuguese atmosphere.”
Charismatic yet peaceful, small yet full of life – Carvoeiro is one of those resorts that just has it all. Oozing authentic Portuguese charm, this place can’t help but spellbind those who visit, and has people coming back time and time again. And once you’ve set foot here you’ll see why. Cut into half moon cliffs, the coastline is dramatically woven with intricate caves and golden beaches, and with mainly low rise apartments and villas the breathtaking landscape has been pretty much left how mother nature intended. Typical old-town narrow streets are scattered with alluring little shops and twist down to a pretty village square, where you can sample the endless wine lists - after all, you are in the wine-producing region of Lagos. The square overlooks the shimmering shores, which gently slope out to the transparent sea, more often than not crammed full of colourful fishing boats. It’s fringed with bustling cafes and restaurants and is a prime spot to eat al fresco and drink in the views. And what a picture the coastline is. The dramatic ochre cliffs shelter numerous mystical grottoes and lead to a number of outstanding pristine beaches. Within walking distance is Algar Seco, with its theatrical rock formations and Carvalho cove, where half the fun is navigating your way through a labyrinth of tunnels. Add to all this animated bars, restaurants serving inviting international and local dishes and excellent activities such as golf and horse riding - and you can’t go wrong in this relaxed holiday haven.
