Carvoeiro Garden Hotel

"Good location. I think that’s the positive out of the way. Room on ground floor overlooked the car park (not particularly bothered). The whole place is tired and in dire need of a refresh - paint chipping off walls and doors etc. There is a safe in the room but you have to rent it for a daily charge!!! This is the first time I’ve had to pay extra for a safe. The pool is a good size but more than half of it is very shallow so that leaves very little space to do a proper swim where your feet don’t touch the bottom. Garden area is fine. Not enough sun loungers for the rooms in busy season. Breakfast - if you’re vegan then you have little choice. There is a mini kitchen in my room and the fridge makes an awful cyclical noise that kept waking me up and the worst of all is the mattress - rock solid and gave me a back ache. I will not stay here again, nor recommend it. I hope my comments are helpful."

"From some previous reviews i was quite nervous about staying here. I needn't have worried! Pool and gardens were beautiful and clean. We had a wonderful stay here. Great food with great variety. Staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming. Decor in hotel was a bit tired in places but this did not affect our holiday at all. Rooms cleaned every day, rooms spacious with wee kitchen area and great air conditioning! The hotel had a quirky, homely and welcoming vibe that we loved."

"Nice Hotel, lovely spacious room, nice food, lovely pool and garden. Helpful staff. Lovely midday snacks, nice cocktails."
