About this property

Gorgeous villa ideally located with pool, ocean views, AirCo, great for families

This magnificent villa is ideally located for everything the charming ex-fishing village of Carvoeiro has to offer. It is enroute to all the famous and hidden coastal walks in the area, including the iconic Benagil cave, and Seven Hanging Valleys. These walks lead to the most spectacular beaches in central Algarve, like Albandeira, Marinha, Benagil, Centeannes (the closest) and Carvoeiro, all of which are reachable by foot or by car.
Half a dozen local restaurants are within 5-7 minutes’ walk, like Vale do Milho Restaurant run by a local Portuguese family (3 min walk) and O Stop, the restaurant on the Centannes Beach which is loved for its cuisine and sunsets (5 min walk).
The villa itself is tastefully decorated to preserve the original feel of Portuguese Quintas and offers panoramic view of the ocean. It is spacious, comfortable and well equipped from its modern kitchen with an outside eating area with a BBQ, to air-conditioning in every bedroom and a large heatable swimming pool.
The Villa is set within 1 acre of gorgeous gardens with cedar, mimosa, eucalyptus and fruit trees ensuring tranquillity and total privacy for your stay.
It is also worth a mention that our cleaning is done by a Portuguese lady taking immense pride in her work and that you will have direct access to friendly, caring and responsive hosts, happy to assist you with any queries you might have during your stay.
The local attractions include multiple Water amusement parks, a Zoo, Zoomarine, Sand City Exhibition, Boat trips to the Caves, Watersports, Bike rides, Golf (3 min stroll to Vale do Milho Golf), Tennis (5-7 min stroll to Rocha Brava Tennis Courts) to name a few…
The Villa’s central Algarve location makes the it ideal to serve as the base for exploration of the whole Algarve area without any need to change your location, as you can easily reach Algarve’s most eastern attractions like Tavira and most Western (Lagos, Sagres) within an easy 1 hr drive. The Monchique mountains with their unspoilt walks are within 30 min drive up North. Also, some of our guests reported making a pleasant 1 day trip to Lisbon and Seville.
You can hardly find a better property combining its impressive size, tasteful original décor, the comfort of all modern amenities, private large heated pool, beautiful 1 acre gardens ensuring total privacy, and the ideal location for everything Carvoeiro and Algarve have to offer!

Ideal Luxury Family Villa

The villa was beautiful exactly as described. The property is well located and easy to find. The facilities are excellent, rooms are very big and bathrooms are lovely and well equipped. The pool is very large with plenty of loungers. Free use of a lovely BBQ which we used several times. Communication with the property owner was excellent and she was very helpful. We would definitely use again.

Great holiday

Quinta Atlantica was perfect for us and we had a lovely relaxing holiday. Pool and outside area is excellent, and the well kept gardens add to the great views when you're outside. Kitchen is well equipped, bathrooms clean (with no hot water issues at all!) and bedrooms all comfy. A luxurious villa that I would recommend and definitely visit again. Val and Veronica were excellent hosts and communication was excellent throughout, not that we needed anything!

Absolutely beautiful

We really enjoyed our time at this property. The home and grounds are gorgeous, the location is convenient for dining and shopping in Carvoeiro and other nearby towns, and we were extremely comfortable staying in the home for 4 nights with elderly grandparents and a rambunctious toddler. Everything was as described and we would absolutely return to this home again!

Quality Accommodation

Have just returned from a weeks stay at Quinta Atlantica. The property is perfect for a family holiday, being well equipped and extremely large. Easy access to beaches, supermarkets and restaurants...a car is recommended although there is a very good Uber network locally. The pool and gardens are beautiful, offering privacy and peace. Communication with the owner was easy. Have stayed in many Villas in the past, but this was probably the best! Totally recommended...ad well worth the 5 star rating.

Loads of character

This really was the perfect relaxing spot for our holiday. Love that there are two outdoor dining tables so you can follow the sun or the evening breeze and sunset. Great communication from the host Veronica and she was super quick to respond to any queries. Kitchen has everything you need to cook up a feast and some great spots to eat out in the area, would especially recommend Monte do Mar.

Lovely Villa

This villa is beautiful, spacious and very clean! There were 6 adults and we all enjoyed the amazing pool and the fantastic gardens! We ventured out every day to tour the area and returned later in the afternoon to lounge around the pool and walk the gardens. Also having the Vale de Milho restaurant near by was convenient, the food and their hospitality was amazing! Our villa host, Veronica was very responsive and extremely helpful with any questions we had about the villa and the area. We highly recommend staying at Quinta Atlantica you will love it!!

The most amazing villa

I have to say the pictures don’t do this gorgeous villa justice. Such an amazing place! Beautiful garden, huge pool, great kitchen that has everything you need for cooking. The rooms and the bathrooms are big, the beds are very comfortable and the upstairs bedroom has the most stunning view of the ocean. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. We also loved our host Veronica - she was great at communicating, and not just about the villa. This was our first time in Portugal and I was texting her every day with questions about driving, parking, where to go for a drink and a bunch of other things. She was super helpful and was always very quick to respond. Will definitely book again!

Girls Holiday

It was a great villa with fantastic views and accommodation. All the pictures were as listed. The only thing was the local shops were a bit further away to walk than we thought, it was a bit hilly to the shops. But Uber were great as we used them to go into town and other places. All the local restaurants were great. We would definitely go back.

Beautiful Villa 5 min. from beach

This house amply accommodated our group of 7. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking family meals. The pool are proved to be the most relaxing spot on the property. Clothes washer meant we could pack light! We did rent a car on the third day of our 5 day stay although Uber and Bolt would be OK but for the music festival we were attending. Veronica was extremely helpful and the welcome packet was thourough.

Amazing Villa

Family of 9 stayed in this amazing villa for 6 nights, it added a magical touch to the Algarve experience. We would definitely recommend this villa. Instructions are clear, Veronica is very responsive and helpful, and the entire villa and its beautiful garden as well as the pool was clean throughout. We felt at right at home and cooked some of our meals (grilled sardines and chicken). A 15 minutes walk to the beach, but it was a nice walk. We also had an evening walk to see the sunset on the Seven Hanging Valleys trail, the trail starts next the beach.

Super visit in Carvoeiro!!

The villa was above and beyond our expectations!! We all absolutely loved it. We were two couples touring the Algarve for a week, and our Villa was a perfect home base. Large enough for a few couples our two families. The host was very responsive before, during and at end of trip. Cleaning staff “Luisa” was super friendly, and we never saw yard maintenance or pool staff, but knew they were there, as everything was pristine. Will definitely stay again when we tour that area next. Thanks from the Atlantic Canadians…we loved Quinta Atlantica!!

Magnificent Villa

This villa is even better than the pictures. Outdoors: the pool (which we had heated since we stayed in May), was refreshing each day, especially after hiking the Seven Hanging Valleys Trail, which was a short ride away; bahtmoom and shower by the pool; 2 large dining tables in 2 covered patio areas; many lounge chairs and umbrellas by the pool; a great brick charcoal BBQ; large property with gardens and sculptures. Indoors: huge rooms with plenty of space for all of us (6 adults, 1 toddler), bedrooms had individually controlled A/C units which were great. A short walk downhill to the beach, or a 2 minute drive. The hosts, Veronica and Val immediately responded to the few questions we had.

Beautiful villa

We stayed at Quinta Atlantica as a group of 9 (age range from 7-73) and we all had a wonderful stay. The property is immaculately kept with regular visits from the lovely housekeeper, pool man and gardeners. Waking up each morning to a beautiful sea view surrounded by idyllic gardens is something we will miss the most following our stay. The property is ideally situated for a short walk to Vale de Centeanes beach and Carvoeiro is a little further but still walkable although we found the local Uber service very reliable when it was too hot to walk. The host was very good with communications and flexible with check-in and check-out. Would love to stay again some day. Highly recommend 5*

So good we've already booked for next year!!!

This villa is amazing! We stayed here as a family of 4 with our adult son flying out to spend a few days with us during our stay. There is so much space in the villa, in the gardens and around the pool and in the bedrooms and bathrooms. The beds are super comfortable and air con is very welcome! It is situated in a quiet residential area within walking distance (for us) to a few lovely restaurants and cafes/bars plus 2 small supermarkets, the Spar been the cheapest of the two, but only a few euros for an Uber into Lagoa where there are a few big supermarkets to choose from. Carvoviera is a lovely little town busy but with a great atmosphere and lots of fantastic places to eat and drink. Villa is very well equipped with a nice BBQ area if you prefer to eat at home. We read previous reviews and decided to use the Uber service rather than hire a car and we’re so pleased we did as it is very reliable and cheap! Only a few euros to get into town. The communication with Veronica was excellent and Louisa the cleaner was a gem! Loved loved loved it!!

A beautiful 5* Villa

We have just returned from spending 9 days at Quinta Atlantica as a family of 5 adults. It is a beautiful villa, the photos do not do it justice, as it looks even better in reality. It is decorated to a high standard and is very spacious. There are 2 outside dining areas and a lovely swimming pool with lots of space to relax and sunbathe around the pool. The villa is on a very large plot with mature gardens all around it which makes it feel secluded and ensures complete privacy. The location is very good and we walked to and from the beach with ease, though the return walk is a little more challenging as slightly uphill! It took 10-15 mins each way. The cleaner is excellent as is the communication from Veronica. It is very well equipped and we didn't need anything that wasn't already at the property. we found all the other reviews helpful and accurate. We would definitely return in the future.

Better than advertised!

What an amazing property! The house and overall space is larger than the pictures suggest. Plenty of room for our group of 5 adults. The yard and garden space provide excellent coverage and privacy. The neighbourhood is very quiet in the evenings with no disturbances. Lots of clean towels and all appliances worked as they should. If I had to pick at something, I would suggest that some basic necessities be provided by the owner, such as paper towel and dish soap. There was a bit available to us but we went through it rather quickly. But other than that… Thank you again Veronica for your prompt replies to our requests. Would absolutely stay here again and easily recommend it to anyone!

What an amazing Villa!!!

Highly recommended - Spacious Air Con in every bedroom Pool is excellent - clean, big and perfect for young children Massive grounds Clean villa with loads of space, kitchen is exceptional with 2 fridge freezers and massive oven BBQ area is excellent Very quiet location Best Villa we’ve had and we’ve had 4/5 over the years in various countries. Highly recommend. Main issue is because it’s quiet, most things are a drive away like super markets etc so we used Uber a lot. Drive was great for a car so I’d either advise Uber or rent. Half of our party likes a walk so it was fine, other half preferred to get cars so depends on your travelling party. Overall so happy and would go again no hesitation.
