Tivoli Carvoeiro

10/10 Excellent
"We discovered the Tivoli Carvoeiro last summer and loved it so much that we came back for a second stay this year—and it was just as incredible as we remembered. The hotel is even more beautiful in person than it is in the pictures, with breathtaking views, a gorgeous setting, and such a special atmosphere. It truly feels like a little piece of paradise for our family. We had another wonderful stay and will definitely be back for a third time one day. Highly recommend!"

"We had a wonderful time at the property. We are a family of four, two teens and the property was very spacious and well laid out. The development is new and the staff are super helpful and pleasant. The development is perfectly located as it is about a 5-7 min walk from Carvoeiro Main Street with lots of lovely restaurants and about a 10-12 min walk from Carvoeiro beach.. Definitely recommend this for longer stays and for family holidays. We will definitely be rebooking for our next visit to the Algarve"

"We found this hotel to be a great place for a couple of days- the staff could not have been more helpful and the pool area was gorgeous! The building itself is tired and needs investment: peeling paint on our balcony doors, and kitchen equipment was very much showing its age. But it was clean, tidy and welcoming!"

"Our stay was most enjoyable and relaxing. Patricia at the property management reception was very friendly, helpful, welcoming and supporting with all our requests. The area is quiet, safe and perfect for families. The pool is nice and private : there are always sunbeds available ( at different points, we were the only people there). The property was modern and ideal for our holiday. A short 10min walk downhill took us into the town centre (although we always used cheap taxi’s to return to the villa as the walk was uphill). We had a great break in Carvoeiro."
