Hotel has beautiful views and a wonderful breakfast! Location was great for traveling around other parts of the Algarve and walkable to so many restaurants in downtown!! the only downside was the fan in our bathroom wasn’t working~ so every time we took a shower it was so steamy in there we couldn’t ...

Carvi Beach Hotel
The best thing about this hotel is the location. Room didn’t had coffee machine which is usually included. The wifi was awfully slow and cellphone signal was almost non existent. But the location, right next to the beach🏖️

We loved our stay here! Staff was friendly, and the property itself was beautiful and exceeded our expectations. Overall, a great stay. Location was great for going to the beach, but it was about a 20 minute walk to good food and shopping.
