Stayed here for a week in June with my family. When we first arrived we were so surprised at how big the apartment was and absolutely everything you need. Fully equipped kitchen. Lovely views from the balcony and excellent swimming pool. Having two bathrooms was a novelty too with beach and bath towels provided. Maids came to clean almost every... More

We arrived slightly early and the apartment was still being cleaned. The apartment was very clean & tidy and had three good size bedrooms, one double & two twins. Two of the bedrooms had en-suite and there was also a seperate toilet and shower. The apartment came with beach towels which saved alot of packing for the six of us.... More

We stayed in the Monte Dourado complex for 10 days. This complex is great for its location, it is only a two minute walk into the town of Carvoeiro and a five minute walk to the beach. The town has lots of bars and restaurants and the Portuguese are very welcoming. There are lots of cafes beside the beach that... More

We have 3 young children and we all loved it. We met quite a few people who have come back again and again and I can see... More

Recently returned from a week in Portugal and having looked at these reviews before we went thought I would add a more recent one. First thing I would have to mention is probably the only downside to the whole place in that appartments are situated right at the top of the resort up a very steep hill. We have no... More

I went on holiday to Carvoeiro with my mum in June 2008 and now I'm pining to go back! It was my first time in Portugal and I had an amazing time, the holiday was cheap but high quality. I think we were in apartment no.38, it was a T3 seaview apartment which I booked through the Monte Dourado website.... More

What a relief. We saw the location of the Cerra Mar hotel en... More
