Lovely Villa in Great Location

Lovely Villa in a great location, perfectly suited for our family holiday. We made great use of the lovely pool area and outdoor spaces, a couple of minor issues were sorted on the same day, owner very responsive before our holiday and remained so throughout. Lots of lovely places to eat and drink locally too.

Amazing Week at the Villa!

We just returned home for our amazing week at Villa Tara and couldn't be happier with our stay! We were a large group of 11 people (6 adults and 5 children) and the space was perfect for us. We all had space for sleeping and lots of outdoor spaces to relax. The pool was also a great benefit and we all enjoyed our time there to cool off. Marie was a wonderful support by providing us with lots of great restaurant recommendations which were nice and close to walk to/from or taxi back for 5 euro. We also loved an uber ride to Club Nau for a fun night out. A few beaches were also a close walk (A bit of a hill on the way back but still very manageable for our group) and others were an easy car ride away. Marie was also quick to answer any questions that we had and connected midway during our stay to see if she could help in any other ways. The pool and villa cleaners both popped in midweek and that we great to have clean towels, a pool check, etc. Our whole experience was wonderful at Villa Tara!

We really loved our time at the Villa. So many amazing outdoor seating areas, the weather was so good we never ate inside. Would definitely stay there again and recommend to others. My only suggestion would be to update the bedding. The bedding all felt a bit tired. Other than that great!!! Our host was amazing!! Thank you for everything!

Great Villa

This is a traditional lovely villa situated in a nice area in Carvoeiro, in a large private plot with great outdoor areas & pool. You are a 10 mins walk downhill into town and a taxi back at night is 5 euros. We were a group of 10 adults and plenty of space for us all. You can walk to small & large supermarkets and get a taxi back if you don't have a car. Overall a great time was had by all and we would return again. Communication was great and check-in & check-out very easy.

Great family holiday

Our party of ten, including 4 children aged from 7 to 10 years old, had a very enjoyable holiday in this lovely spacious villa. The girls loved the heated swimming pool and the grandparents made the most of the various sheltered outdoor seating areas. As it was October it was a bit chilly in the evenings which meant we couldn’t make the most of the very attractive outside area for alfresco evening meals, although we did manage to have one early evening barbecue. The underfloor heating in the living areas was very welcome as was the smart TV! The management company who looked after the Villa were very attentive and approachable. The pool man was also very efficient and dealt quickly with a malfunctioning pool pump caused by a heavy rain shower. Despite having some inclement weather we all agreed we’d had a great stay at Casa de Tara.

Wonderful holiday

We had a brilliant stay in the first week of June. Family of 5, although the villa could have easily taken a much bigger group. We were attracted to the villa because of the location and heated pool, which was a big plus due to travelling with a two and five year old, neither of whom like to swim in cooler water. The pool is a very good size, well maintained, very clean and was lovely and warm (at a guess about 29/30oc). Both boys were happy to spend hours in there and had to be encouraged out. The villa was very clean. We found the villa to be spacious with well positioned seating areas to both sides outside. The villa is well located between both Centianes beach and Carvoeiro. We had a great boat trip from Centianes, the organisers were great with the kids and it kept them happily entertained for an hour exploring the sea caves. The nearby water park was also a hit. We loved the walk along Algar Seco. Boneca Bar and Mar d’Fora and the beach bar at Centianes we’re food hits and good for seafood lovers. Boneca Bar has a lovely cave tunnel by the sea, which the kids loved exploring with their torches. The supermarkets were a short drive away. We found the walk to Algar Seco area to be about 15 mins and then a bit further on to either beach, so for beach trips due to young children with us preferred to drive but parking was easy. The grounds around the villa and location made for a peaceful week and mean you don’t feel overlooked. Marie kindly arranged for buggies at the villa and this was a big help for tired little legs. The communication both before and during holiday has been faultless, which made the organisational side very easy. We would love to return one day. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Wonderful, memorable trip

We just came home from the most wonderful stay at Casa de Tara. We were a group of 4 couples, friends that have travelled together every 2 years, and we must say that this was our best trip. To start, Marie was an absolute pleasure to deal with. She responded quickly, offering information and sharing things to do in Carvoeiro. She is a great expert in knowing what is going on in her town, and it's always interesting to get recommendations from a local! The villa itself was beautiful. The pictures really don't do justice to how lovely and spacious it really is. And the views! Especially from the upstairs balcony. We spent several nights sipping port and watching the sunset. From that balcony you can see the town, the sea and the Monchique mountains. The bedrooms were great for a large group - 2 queen size ensuite rooms, 1 ensuite room with a double and a single, 1 queen size room with a bathroom right beside it, and then another room with 3 single beds. All were comfortable and gave each of us our privacy. The outside eating area was really convenient right off the kitchen, and we barbequed many nights. We had fantastic weather so were able to lounge around the pool and sunbathe every day. Also wonderful was having a frig and washroom out by the pool. We hardly ever wanted to leave. The town however is really lovely, and it's about a 10/20 minute walk depending on the route you take. One is a gentler slope but takes a little longer - the other is much steeper in areas but is quicker. There are several small supermarkets to pick up your daily supplies of water, beer, wine, veggies, snacks etc and a great butcher who was open every day until one, where we would go to buy our BBQ items. Also within easy walk were some fabulous restaurants for the few evenings that we went out. We found we didn't need a car at all and we were there for 10 days. All in all, this was a fabulous villa, location, town, trip - everything! We would all go back here is a second!

home from home

We were a party of 6 adults and two four year old girls, the villa just met all our needs perfectly. Nothing was to much trouble for the owner or the manager of the property who did everything he possibly could to assist us when i stupidly left behind a small hand bag, luckly my passport wasnt in it. We were visiting early april so paided the extra to have the pool heated, it was well worth it. None of us really wanted to drive so we used the local taxi company who had a 9 seater to get about. while we were staying a lovely new outdoor dinning table was delivered, and a corner sofa and table was placed on the covered veranda. We would certainly go back and stay here again, the relaxed family holiday has left us all with memories to cherish. One of the children in our group was disabled and one of the adults has heart failure and needed a lot of rest, the villa accomadated our needs perfectly and we had a wonderful time. We did a online shop before we went, and all our water and essentials were delivered to the villa within a hour of our arrival. Thank you for letting us enjoy your lovely villa

Wonderful villa with beautiful views, fab pool and lots of amazing outside eating areas

10 friends came here to celebrate my 50th birthday and had an absolutely brilliant time. The villa was perfect in every way, it was very clean and well presented, the pool was lovely with lots of sun loungers and even inflatables. We loved all the outside areas to sit in and chat. The views from the balcony were so beautiful, it was very quiet and peaceful. Marie, the owner, was very helpful and responded to our questions very promptly.

Immaculate Villa in lovely upmarket area yet only 10-15 minutes walk from the town centre.

This is by far the nicest villa I have stayed in to date. Marie was extremely helpful and went above and beyond for our visit, even helping me source an online delivery service for our groceries, which I’d recommend. The heated pool and outside toilet/shower beside the pool was really handy. Plenty of sun loungers and parasols for shade if needed. We had a lovely bbq the first day. There are more than enough plates, glasses and cutlery for feeding 10 of us. It’s less than 5 euros to get back home from the beach or town centre. I had the master bedroom which had an amazing wrap round balcony with stunning views of the sea in the distance, The villa has everything you need for a relaxing holiday. We will definitely be returning but this time with my family, they need to experience this place too!! 10/10 from me! 👍x

We had a great time in Carvoeiro at this beautiful property. The home owner Marie was wonderful and went the extra mile in recommending local interests and food spots for us to visit. The home manager Sian was also lovey and greeted us upon arrival - everything was clean and ready to use. We really loved the pool which - thankfully - had a gate to slow our little toddling people down as they raced around the spacious grounds of this property, enjoying all the space. There's a nice balcony to relax on too where you can watch the sunset - an unexpected surprise for us!

Wonderful Villa

Stayed at Casa Tara in August with friends, this villa is set in beautiful surroundings. The swimming pool was absolutely wonderful along with the spacious sun terraces and lovely gardens. Plenty of room in the villa, all bedrooms a good size with lots of cupboard/drawer space. The kitchen had a vast range of kitchen utensils, appliances, cutlery and crockery - it was like home from home. We did walk down to town a few times but in the heat we found it easier to call a cab, this was the same returning back to the villa. Carvoeiro is a vibrant town with lots of bars and restaurants and the square is a great place for entertainment. I would definitely recommend this lovely villa.

A Lovely Villa Ideal for families

We were 3 Generations with Grandchildren 11, 7 and 16 months the Villa is perfect for little ones very safe with the gated pool, which we had heated, The pool is properly heated so no shivering for the little ones in their Factor 50 Swimsuits which has been a problem elsewhere. The villa is very well equipped with lots of good quality plastic glasses and crockery which was ideal for eating drinking and BBQ's around the pool The bedrooms have plenty of storage with nice ensuites all have their own Individually controlled Air Con Units We did not have a car and walking to Carvoeiro is a bit of a trek for little ones, the pavements are not pushchair friendly, having said that there are a couple of excellent restaurants within about 200 metres. We would highly recommend Ponto Encontro amazing value and quality for lunch - you need to book All in all a fantastic 2 weeks, we dined locally or at the villa and the little had great fun in the pool

Great break for the wider family!

Casa da Tara lived up to almost all of our (high) expectations of it. A party of 11 from three generations, aged from 2 to 66, we came together to celebrate a wedding anniversary. The villa offered a very spacious and restful base for our holiday and provided the perfect starting point for exploring this delightful area of Portugal. If I were to be picky, I would point out that the advertised "walk" to town and beach was great and very doable for most of the members of our party, but didn't work for the very youngest, nor for me with arthritic knees. The house and its garden are well equipped and maintained. They catered well for the needs of all the members of our party, whatever their age. The option to take our meals in different parts of the house and the abundance of crockery and cutlery suited us very well.

Excellent location, and facilities, for a chilled-out extended family holiday

As Grandma and Grandpa, we had an amazing time with our almost 2-year-old granddaughters and their Mum's and Dad's.The child-friendly pool lived up to expectations, and there are good supermarkets and restaurants within easy reach. There are spectacular sites close by, if you can drag yourselves away, and friendly staff to ensure everything runs smoothly!
