Glorious Casa Corveta
Casa Corveta is more than a Villa to stay, it’s a home and you feel it as soon as you enter. Axel and Uta have poured love and attention into the property and it shows. Thank you for a wonderful holiday with my family.

Met up with friends from America at this beautiful and spacious villa. Lots of space, features and beautiful Gardens, pool and sauna. Loved the outside dining area and upstairs deck. Check in and out was easy and good contact with the management and property owner.

Family Celebration
Fantastic! This villa is super! It is very spacious offering a variety of spaces to allow people to spend time how they wish. We were a family group of 6 adults and there were ample areas both indoors and outdoors (living room, dining room, poolside, terrace and sun terrace) to eat and spend time, or to spread out separately and relax around the wonderful gardens. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you might need and more! The bedrooms are all very comfortable double rooms with plenty of storage space. We particularly enjoyed the doors leading out from our bedroom on to our sun terrace. The property is in a lovely area and the tennis club nearby is an added bonus also providing an excellent restaurant which handily has a carry out menu. However, we were glad of our hire car for trips to the supermarket, down to the town centre and also to explore the beautiful small towns and wonderful scenic coastline. We would love to return to this property again in the future.

Peaceful and Relaxing
Our group of friends and family enjoyed this property's generous outdoors space as well as amenities such as the sauna, BBQ, and fireplace. There was ample space for privacy as some of us needed to work. The cleaning staff and property managers were polite, efficient and available when we needed them. Heating in the winter is necessary and is somewhat expensive (gas - bottles at 130 euros each - we used 3 during our 18 day stay) so be prepared for the extra cost. The town is about a 20 minute walk, up and down hills, with a large portion of the walk on a narrow, twisting road without sidewalks. The property itself is in a development with mature trees and single family homes, set back from the road with gates and lots of greenery. It feels very private and safe. We enjoyed using Casa Corveta as a home base from which to explore the warmth and beauty which is the Algarve.

Plenty of room inside and out
Villa and gardens present well. No English TV other than 3 news programs available. No remote for DVD player. Not informed beforehand that we would have to pay for gas bottles. Plenty of outside furniture and cushions, lots of choice of seating areas by pool or within gardens. Fridge/freezer leaking across floor so wet towels mopping up could present trip hazard. Management fully aware.

Hello Susan Thank you very much for your feedback. We are very pleased that you enjoyed the house. I will check the availability of English channels during my next stay. I was not aware of the unavailability. Thank you for pointing it out. Yes, unfortunately we have to charge a fee for the gas bottles in winter. This is noted in the rental terms of the house in the listing. I'm sorry you missed it and were negatively surprised by it. The refrigerator will be replaced. We very much hope to welcome you back. Until then All the Best Axel

Wonderful location
The villa was exactly what we had expected. We enjoyed the location and the visits to the surrounding areas. The few problems we had we sorted out immediately with the management ‘inside Summer’ team. The pool is quite deep throughout which was perfect for swimming. More detail on access to property along with a welcome pack would have been quite useful to the property. Overall a nice place to stay.

Lovely stay in a lovely villa
We had a wonderful 8-night stay. It was spacious, there was plenty of room for everyone inside and out, immaculately clean and the pool area was fantastic. It is not too far away from the centre, it's a nice walk there but a little hilly on the way back! We used Ubers on a regular basis, they were reasonably priced and available normally within 5 minutes. The owners and the property managers were always really helpful. One nice touch would have been to offer a welcome pack of essentials which I would have happily paid for. We would definitely stay here again, really lovely holiday home.

Great property, attention to detail needed
Overall this was a great stay. I’ve stayed in a different villa here before and this was much better. A couple of points regarding lights not working and the Sauna was out of action during our visit. I paid £150 for pool heating but frankly, I don’t think it was effective. Save your money is my advice. Apart from that I would visit again. Carvoeiro is a beautiful place which still has a quaint traditional Portuguese feel.

Dear Tom Thank you very much for your message. We are really happy that you liked the house. I have to apologize for the sauna. Unfortunately, it was absolutely impossible (in the short time) to get a new control unit for the sauna. It reached the house only 2 days after your departure and is now also installed. Pool heating: Of course I have spoken with the administration about this point. Both ( administration and pool service ) confirmed a temperature of 28 degrees. It is not recommended to go above 28 degrees, otherwise the water quality ( bacteria ) suffers. We would be happy to welcome you again. All the Best .. Uta & Axel

Perfect
Casa Corveta is the most beautiful Villa, set in a lovely location 15 min walk to the town of Caroveiro where you will find plenty of fantastic restaurants and bars. The Villa was equipped with everything a family needed, large pool, lush gardens, patio and a perfect roof terrace for watching the sun go down with a glass of chilled wine. We could not have asked for anything more perfect for our 2 weeks holiday after such a long hard year of lock downs and Covid19. We had heaven given to us when we booked this Villa. The owners and the management team were always at hand to answer any questions nothing was too much. A car is a must as you really need to get out and explore other beaches, Praia Grande in Ferragudo for Paddle Boarding, Praia do Amado for surfing, Snorkeling at Praia dos Canerios boat trips, water parks is just a few of the activities that can be done. Or just sit by the pool relaxing with mellow music coming from the pool room. How ever you want to spend your holiday Casa Corveta is the place to be. We will def be back Steve, Nadine and family

We had a lovely time at Casa Corveta. It had everything we needed. It definitely felt like a home rather than a rental property. It is also well positioned so not too far away from the centre but far away from all the hustle and bustle of the town. Gardens were really lovely.

Lovely stay in a lovely villa!
We had a wonderful fortnight stay in the Casa. It was spacious, very well stocked with everything you need, and immaculately clean. It’s in a great location walkable to the town centre and with easy access out of town to the many local beaches too. The owners and the property managers were really helpful too. The only small thing to note is that the pool is deep throughout, so if you have little ones learning to swim it’s tiring work for them. No issues for us though, but worth mentioning. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. Thank you!

We are very happy that you liked our house and that you and your loved ones spent some nice days in Carvoeiro. Thank you very much for the friendly feedback ! We would be very happy to welcome you again. Of course we always point out the nature of the pool as soon as guests with children book. So far all guests have come anyway and were very satisfied. But you are absolutely right this point should be known if you book the house with children. Hope to see you soon again ! Uta & Axel

Lovely villa in Carvoeiro
We had a very enjoyable 4 night stay at the villa. It is spacious inside and outside. Lovely grounds and pool. We really liked Carvoeiro, which is not too big, wasn't crowded (although it was October) and had some nice restaurants. The villa is in a nice quiet location, but it is a good 25 minute walk back from the town.

Lovely Stay!
We had the most wonderful stay here. The property couldn't have been any more beautiful, clean, or cozy. The rooms were spacious and the pool was gorgeous!!! It was very easy communicating with the property manager as well. She set up taxis for us which was such a great touch. The only negative thing that I could say is that we quickly ran out of toilet paper during our stay so perhaps the house could provide a bit more of TP. Overall though, we would stay here again in a heartbeat. Lovely, lovely place.

Beautiful House in a Wonderful Location!
We (2 parents with 3 adult children) rented this beautiful property in May 2019. The house, gardens and pool were well appointed and maintained. The beds and baths were comfortable and clean. There was plenty of room for everyone inside and out. We particularly enjoyed relaxing in the sun on the deck and by the pool. It was an easy walk into town (about 20 minutes) and appreciated not having to drive and look for parking. If we visit the area again, we will definitely reserve this house.

Besser geht kaum
Wir waren in der 2.Märzhälfte 2022 zu 2 Ehepaaren (jeweils 70+) zu Gast in diesem Haus. Wir sind bei Dunkelheit angekommen und haben uns trotz der exakten Wegbeschreibung der Hausverwaltung schwer getan, die Einfahrt zu finden, da in unseren Navis keine Hausnummern hinterlegt und wir eine Straße zu früh abgebogen waren. Man muss wirklich bis ganz zum Straßenende durch Carvoeiro fahren und erst unmittelbar am Strand nach rechts abbiegen, wo es andernfalls nur im Bogen von 180Grand zurückginge. Aber letztlich haben wir es dann doch gefunden und waren sofort begeistert. Es gab genug Abstellplatz für unsere beiden Mietwagen - solche erscheinen uns unabdingbar, da ohne Auto die Wege zum Einkaufen, zu den Restaurants und an die Strände doch sehr beschwerlich sind. Es war schon eine erhebliche Zahl von Touristen unterwegs, sowohl im Ort als auch an den Stränden gab es jedoch mit etwas Glück noch Parkplätze. Im Sommer wird das wohl anders aussehen. Das Haus selbst liegt auf einem uneinsehbaren weitläufigen Grundstück mit großen Rasenflächen und schönem Bewuchs, alles sehr gut gepflegt. Das Gebäude hat einen sehr durchdachten Grundriss und bietet sowohl die Möglichkeit, dass alle Besucher beieinander sitzen als auch genügend Raum, um sich mal alleine zurückzuziehen. Die Küche ist groß und hervorragend mit allen Geräten, Töpfen, Pfannen, Gläsern und Geschirr ausgetattet - es ist von allem mehr vorhanden als man braucht und alles funktionierte. Überdies gefiel uns sehr, dass sich die Ausstattung des ganzen Hauses in Qualität und Stil sehr positiv vom Durchschnitt ähnlicher Angebote abhob. Die kurz vor unserer Ankunft ausgefallene Poolheizung hatte der Eigentümer sofort durch eine moderne Wärmepumpenheizung ersetzten lassen - diese war sehr leistungsfähig und hatte den riesigen und sehr tiefen Pool innerhalb von drei Tagen auf 28 Grad aufgeheizt, die auch trotz nachts trotz einstelliger Temperaturen konstant gehalten wurden. Alle Pflegearbeiten im Haus, im Garten, beim Wechsel der Gasflaschen und am Pool wurden sehr diskret und in keiner Weise störend durch von der Hausverwaltung beschäftigtes Personal erledigt. Wir haben einen wunderschönen und sehr erholsamen Urlaub erlebt und hoffen sehr, noch einmal in dieses Haus zurückzukehren. Jürgen Kriegeskotte
