Ideally situated for a great holiday. Car hire is not necessary. Alojamento Local Registered 51668/AL

COVID NOTICE
We are Covid compliant with our cleaning regime for the prevention and control of the Covid Virus. We will let you know when our maid will be calling to allow you to choose to be home or not. We do not expect our guests to go to the Reception area or be interrupted by maids who have been mixing with many other guests within the complex. Both our apartments (Girassol 25 (HAUK 10788256) and Jasmin 92) are not right next to the sunbathing/swimming pool terraces but a few steps away and therefore enable you to distance safely.

We live in Carvoeiro and manage both our apartments personally, we are on hand to answer any questions or give any information, hints or tips to ensure you enjoy your stay.

Tourist Tax
Certain provinces in Portugal are now charging a Tourist Tax, Lagoa is one of those areas. This has been implemented with effect from 12th May for everyone aged 13 and over. The tax is €2 in the summer and €1 in the winter, per person per night for up to 7 nights.
Because of how the tax is formulated we can't just easily add it to each booking, but will collect it from you and give you a receipt when you arrive. The whole implementation is rather chaotic, so please bear with us for the late notice.

From the large open TERRACE, which enjoys early sunshine for breakfast and a view over the valley and pools, the lovely BLUE FRONT DOOR leads into the generous entrance HALLWAY giving access to the whole apartment.

The two large BEDROOMS (one with King-sized bed and one with twin beds) both have fitted wardrobes and air-conditioning. The FULL BATHROOM has a walk-in shower over the bath which has both overhead rain and handheld shower heads. A folding bath is also available. The SHOWER ROOM has a walk-in shower area and rain shower-head too.

The FITTED KITCHEN is complete with all the necessary white goods: fridge/freezer, washing machine, dishwasher, ceramic hob, electric oven and microwave. The small appliances, toaster, kettle, juicer, filter coffee machine and coffee plunger are there too. The cupboards and drawers are full of what you would expect to find in your own home. There is a clothes drying area, iron and board. Guests who stay for 7 nights or longer will receive a free Welcome Pack on arrival.

Facing onto the wide sunny garden terrace the air-conditioned LOUNGE/DINING ROOM is light bright and airy, very comfortably furnished and complete with wood burning stove for those chilly winter evenings. There is a well-stocked bookcase, TV (with over 165 channels including Dutch, French and German channels) as well as a DVD player (many films to choose from) a music centre and board games ensures there is something for everyone to enjoy. There is high quality WiFi throughout the apartment.

The SPACIOUS TERRACE runs the full width of the apartment, with good size table and chairs, an ideal place for al fresco dining. Jasmin 92 is one of the very few apartments on the whole complex which has a PRIVATE GARDEN AREA leading from the terrace. A pair of comfortable reclining chairs are on the decking, great for sunbathing or quietly reading in the sun. In the small tree lantern lights glow in the evening making this a very desirable and tranquil place to be, while enjoying the view over the valley and village rooftops with a Sundowner in hand.

All household LINEN is provided and changed weekly. We also provide towels for the pool and separate ones to take to the beach with mats. The apartment has a LAPTOP SAFE; we do not charge for its use.

There are five SWIMMING POOLS in the complex (one heated in winter), all with separate children’s pool, sun loungers and umbrellas.
There are two TENNIS COURTS on site, hire from Reception.
Free CAR PARKING on site.

If this lovely apartment is booked for your holiday dates, please look at our other apartment, GIRASSOL 25 (HAUK 10788256), also in Monte Dourado.

HIGH SEASON JULY AND AUGUST
We try to be as flexible as possible so we do not have a fixed changeover day.
However we ask guests to please book so that your holiday starts or ends at a previous booking or at least leaves a minimum 7 nights either side of your booking

For LONG STAY WINTER GUESTS, special rates are available, which we base on two people sharing, and happily welcome their visitors for a small extra charge, payable locally at the end of the stay.
Electricity is charged at cost, also payable locally at the end of the stay. The big pool is heated in the winter months, usually from October to April.

A recent guest wrote this review:
"We stayed here for 10 days in the middle of August as a family of 4, two adults and two young children and had a fantastic holiday.
Before we even arrived Rory and Jane were very helpful with booking transfers and advice (we travelled from Lisbon to Carvoeiro).
Once we arrived we were greeted by Rory who let us know everything we needed to know about the property and surrounding areas, including maps and restaurant recommendations. There was also a fridge full of food, which was great.
The accommodation itself is very well decorated and felt like home from home, my favourite was the lounge chairs on the outside balcony!
The location of the apartment is also very good, a short walk to many restaurants, the beach and supermarket. It is also well positioned for exploring the surrounding area.
We enjoyed our holiday very much and wouldn't hesitate to book to stay here again."

Great Location & Host
This unit is located perfectly. Minutes from restaurants, bars, beach, hiking. The unit itself is dated, but as I understand it, renovations are imminent. It rained daily - everyone told us that it was highly unusual. With all the rain the unit felt damp, and dreary. I think this is unusual though and really, you can't hold a host responsible for the weather! LOL. Rory was very helpful to deal with -great ideas of places to go and great insight for newbies to Portugal - like advice to use the Wise app, and which ATMs were ripoffs.

Long Stay
We stayed in this apartment from January through April 2024. Jane and Rory are very welcoming and responsive hosts and made check in and out seamless. The location to the town is excellent and one can easily walk pretty much anywhere including most restaurants. The apartment is well equipped albeit a bit tired which makes it a great choice for slightly shorter stays. Maria, the cleaning gal was outstanding…very reliable, friendly and always helpful.

Great summer break for family
We have just finished our week at this lovely villa. The accommodation was perfect for a summer family break. Rory and Jane made us feel very welcome & their communication was excellent throughout. We had a choice of pools within seconds walking distance, and could always find sunbeds and umbrellas despite it being peak season. The apartment had absolutely everything you needed, including cool box for day out at the waterpark, spare parasols, drying racks and beach chairs, towels etc. Even a library of books to read too. It was a perfect base to go off an explore the local area. Very close to a wide selection of restaurants and an easy walk to the beach. Thank you so much for having us to stay. We look forward to returning one day.

Fantastische plek in Carvoeiro
We werden warm welkom geheten door Rory, die ons meteen van allerlei tips voorzag op het gebied van restaurants en uitjes. Het appartement was uitgebreid uitgerust: magnetron, vaatwasser, wasmachine, citruspers, boeken, speelgoed (ook voor op het strand), strandparasols en handdoeken. De ligging tov het centrum en het strand is perfect, we liepen zo de berg af naar de straten met vele restaurantjes en winkeltjes. Fijn zwembad voor de deur en voldoende mogelijkheid om zowel in de zon als in de schaduw te liggen. De communicatie met Rory en Jane verliep prettig en snel. Ideaal plekje voor een gezinsvakantie in Carvoeiro!

Séjour quatre étoile à Carvoeiro
Monte Dourado Resort est un endroit magique composé de petits ensembles de maison-appartement dans un décor merveilleusement agrémenté de petits jardins et le tout sur une petite colline surplombant le village de Carvoeiro que l'on peu rejoindre à pied en quelques minutes, il y a 9 piscines dans ce complexe, vous n'avez que l'embarra du choix. A l'arrivée, Rory et Jane étaient là pour nous accueillir chaleureusement. Il y avait tout ce qui fallait pour ne pas devoir faire de courses le jour d'arrivée (Charcuterie, pain, fromage et boissons). Les consignes étaient clairement indiquées dans un classeur, il y avait aussi une farde reprenant des informations intéressantes sur le lieux de villégiature et les environs et Rory n'était pas avare de bons conseil sur les endroits secrets à découvrir en priorité. Mon Anglais n'étant pas très bon, pas de problème, Rory parle parfaitement le français. Tous les ingrédients sont réunis par passer d'agréables vacances sans soucis dans ce magnifique appartement joliment décoré et très bien équipé. What else ? Encore un tout grand merci Roy et Jane pour leur gentillesse et leurs attentions. Nous reviendrons certainement.

Super apartment that had everything anyone could ever want. Our hosts, Rory and Jane were extremely helpful and friendly giving us all sorts of tips and advise on where to go and places to eat. This really was a great place to stay on a very nice, quiet resort which was close to beach, shops and restaurants. Can fully recommend for any family or group of friends to stay here as we had a great time. Thank you Rory & Jane for making our wedding anniversaries so special.

Our 4 day stay was excellent on all fronts. Rory, our host, was flexible, easy to communicate with and very helpful. The welcoming package was terrific and most appreciated after a long day of travel. The condo is very conveniently located, quiet and well maintained. We hope to return for a longer stay soon.

February break
We were a family of four who stayed for the first time in the Algarve at this time of year. We found the hosts very helpful prior to our arrival and followed Rory's directions to the property rather than follow our sat nav which gave us a good feel for the town and the property location, which was excellent. Rory met us at the property and we were very impressed by the size, cleanliness and quality of it. Rory was very helpful in advice for places to visit and restaurants and made him available if we had any questions during the stay. The weather was very kind to us and Rory and Jane quickly sorted out the only issue we had during our week. There are a huge amount of excellent restaurants easily without walking distance and an opportunity to burn off a few calories in the walk back up the hill afterwards! Overall an excellent weeks winter break in a lovely property with very helpful and friendly hosts.

Fantastic 18 Day Stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in June/July at Rory and Jane's apartment. The location is the top selling point; very close to the centre of Carvoeiro but quiet and peaceful. Rory and Jane were perfect hosts and offered lots of tips on day trips, places to visit, and restaurants. The apartment itself worked well for us with 2 small children. It is a good layout and has all the facilities you could need for a pleasant stay. We would not hesitate to return.

Lovely apartment with everything thought out so well. Very central with just 5 mins to beach and restaurants. Takes longer coming back due to the hill! Rory and Jane were so helpful with information before and after arrival which was really great and were eager to ensure we had a lovely holiday. The welcome pack was very generous too. We especially liked the private terrace. Definitely would recommend this apartment and thanks so much to our excellent hosts!

Wonderful property in beautiful Carvoiero
This was a great apartment. Very clean and well maintained. Great layout and spacious. Had all the necessary appliances and the utensils. Particularly liked the power juicer! Great location though a significant climb up from the village (but good exercise). Carvoiero is extremely quaint and picturesque. Lots of good restaurants. Great coastal walks. Rory and Jane are great hosts. Met us on arrival and provided valuable details about the apartment and local information. Would recommend to friends and hope to get back there soon.

Lovely apartment in a great location
We stayed for 5 nights in this excellent apartment and really enjoyed our stay. It was spotlessly clean, really well equipped. and felt homely and comfortable. We loved the location. It's a short walk into the centre of Carvoeiro but in a very quiet area. The complex is well maintained and we swam in the heated communal pool which is a bonus in February. We would definitely recommend this apartment and hope to stay again in the future.

The apartment was well equipped. The owner provided a welcome pack of groceries to cover the first day(s) which was a thoughtful gesture. Beds were extremely comfortable and the bedroom(s) spacious. TV had all main european channels, UK, NL, German. The outside space was not very large, but the owner is intending to extend the terrace so that will be an added bonus. All in all a very pleasureable stay.

Enjoyable summer break, helpful owners
Enjoyed a fantastic holiday and would definitely return. The apartment was as described, includes everything we needed for the 10 days and was being well located both on the complex and within the town. Very helpful owners who gave good advice pre-trip as well as taking the time to greet us on arrival. The welcome pack was brilliant saving a dash to the local super market and the blue guide folder really helped us get to know the area as well as choose destinations for each day of our stay. Rory and Jane put a lot of effort into making your stay comfortable and enjoyable. Locally we’d recommend Carvalho beach and if you fancy an ocean kayak tour of the caves. A great holiday. Thanks Roy and Jane

VERY NICE APARTMENT
The apartment was just what we needed in terms of size, equipment amenities and location. Clean and comfortable beds and proper furniture inside and out. All the rooms were of a good size The cooking facilities in the kitchen included a modern electric hob and oven plus microwave. There is a washing machine and dish washer. Air conditioning was essential and effective. A bonus was having Sky Sports Main Event with 4 UK terrestrial channels (1 to 4) on the TV. There were books to read and local information to help us familiarise with the locale It is in a nice quiet spot with pleasant views out front over the village and the rear terrace is cool and relaxing (as seen in the photo) The beach and village centre are within a few minutes walk (downhill), add a few minutes for the climb back up the hill. Good number of parking spaces Overall an apartment I would use again if and when we visit the area. Rory was a welcoming and responsive host reacting quickly to deal with a couple of minor equipment issue that were speedily resolved after contacting him. Nice welcome pack and personal greeting The only issue that might be improved is the WiFi which seems to have a mind of its own and works as and when it pleases! Hence 4 rather than 5 stars. I believe it is not within the power of the hosts to resolve the WiFi issue but is a more technical problem for the area. We certainly did not let this 1st world problem adversely affect our holiday and overall would recommend it as a place to stay and enjoy a nice part of the Algarve.

Dejlig lejlighed med skøn beliggenhed
Vi havde 10 skønne dage i denne dejlige lejlighed som passer perfekt til en familie med to børn eller to par, som ønsker at bo sammen. Rory og Jane er et fantastisk værtspar og bød os velkommen med en velkomstpakke (brød, smør, skinke, et par øl m.m). De var også meget fleksible med ankomst/afrejsetidspunkt. Beliggenheden er fantastisk med 5 min. gang til strand, indkøb og dejlige restauranter. Lejligheden er en stuelejlighed i en bygning med 6 lejligheder tæt på et par gode pool-områder. Eneste årsag til, at lejlighed ikke får 5 stjerner er, at terrassen kunne være lidt større, men den ligger dejlig ugenert og har eftermiddags-/aftenssol. Dejligt at man ikke selv behøver medbringe poolhåndklæder - de er i lejligheden.

About the host

Hosted by Rory & Jane

Host profile image
Hi, we have lived on the Algarve for many years, wherever we have travelled, always returning to Carvoeiro. Jane just loves flying into Faro and seeing the Ria Formosa Estuary and the sandy islands, it gives the feeling of sunshine and relaxation immediately. We hope you will feel the same.

Rory is retired from his work as a freelance Management Consultant working across Europe for over 27 years. He arrived in Portimao by sailboat in 2002

Jane has worked in Tourism, travelling extensively even spending a lot of time in Australia and the Balearics. She originally made her home here in the mid 1980’s

We now live across the valley from the Apartments with our cat, who also loves to travel with us, on our boat, but is not so keen on flying!!

Why they chose this property

WHY WE CHOSE CARVOEIRO
We love Carvoeiro for its character and its nearness to everything as well as the fact that it has none of the nasty high-rise buildings in evidence elsewhere along the coast. There are always many restaurants to choose from even in the middle of winter and the lovely sheltered beach is right there too. Whether you want to pop out for coffee, a lingering lunch, the perfect dinner or just to relax on the beach go no further than 500m - yes its all that close. We love it here and sure you will too.

We bought both our apartments in 2017 (Girassol 25 and Jasmine 92), having looked around we found that Monte Dourado has so much to offer. Right in the heart of the village, with the beach on its doorstep but still remaining peaceful and quite in itself. There is on site parking, the mature gardens are very well cared for and grounds kept in good condition, there are 5 pool areas each with a separate children's pool, sun beds and parasols. The main pool is heated in the winter months. If you are feeling energetic there are tennis courts for hire just behind the reception.

What makes this property unique

Comfortable home from home, not just a ‘holiday let’.
So close to beach, village, shops and restaurants.
Quiet and relaxing location.
Pools just a few steps away.
Air conditioning (hot/cold) and wood burner for cooler evenings…..
On-site free parking, a real bonus in the centre of Carvoeiro
