Casa Patricia - Colina Branca, Carvoeiro - 5 Min Walk To Beach

We had a great holiday here . The house is really well equipped with beautiful views across the town out to the sea. The steps to the house were challenging but worth it !

Really good experience with Susie from the moment we booked right to the point we departed. The house is very well located and her directions made it easy to find. It’s equipped with everything you would need to feel at home. Location is a genuine 5 minute walk in to town which offers lovely beach, restaurants and bars. It is at the top of a very steep hill though so probably not recommended for those with mobility issues. It was very hot when we stayed and the house is not air conditioned but fans are provided to all rooms. Overall excellent experience and I will return!

Fine comfortable house with all amenities for a great holiday! Quietly situated but also in the sociability of the village. Our children have also enjoyed themselves! We were in the top row of houses, super for the view, difficult for people who have difficulty walking, too far from pool and main street! Really a must!

Very clean. Lovely views from a great terrace out over Carvoeiro and the sea beyond. A few minutes walk up/down a very steep hill into town and restaurants and shops.”

We had planned a 2 week holiday in this beautiful house and surroundings. Our goal was to get away from Corona and simply enjoy the time. But everything turned out differently than we had hoped. Unfortunately, due to a change in the travel warning by Germany, we had to cancel our holiday after only 1 week. This was a very difficult decision for all of us. The house, the surroundings and the care by Susi were perfect. Susi could always be reached by email and was always available with advice and support. We also booked a packed lunch for the first day. Everything was great. Thank you very much! A bigger coffee machine would be very good. We are planning to finish our holiday there next year or the year after and will definitely book this holiday home again. Many thanks for the great service.

“Very clean and functional holiday flat with views over Carvoeiro and the sea. Instructions given by the host very clear. Don't hesitate!” “Appartement de vacances très propre et fonctionnel avec vue sur Carvoeiro et l océan. Instructions données par l hôte très clair. N hésitez pas! Munto Obrigada.”

Really great week, 7/8 minutes from the beach, very nice and quiet house, pleasant sea view.

Very nice house, with great balcony and magnificent view to Carvoeiro beach. Good location.

Fantastic location, beautiful sea views, lovely, clean house. The property is very well furnished with plenty of bedding and towels. There are plenty of fans but air conditioning would have been ideal. The guides and house manuals are really easy to follow and informative - local amenities, shops and bars are easily accessible and the local beaches are just gorgeous. The swimming pool is lovely but don't underestimate the 116 steps back to the property if you’re staying in the top row of townhouses, it may put you off going, which would be a shame. We had a lovely holiday, it was our first time in Portugal but won't be our last.

Susie is a very helpful person who is always available for any clarification The house you recommended to us in Carvoeiro-Colina Blanca was fantastic! With beautiful views and 5 min from the beach, magnificent location and fully equipped with all the facilities for a long and quiet stay Having breakfast every morning on the terrace with those beautiful views of the village and the sea was wonderful Thanks for everything Susie it has been a fantastic vacation!

Perfectly and ideally placed, I sincerely recommend. The villa is top-notch and ideally located. I loved my stay. Thank you.

FR: Nous avons passé 3 semaines à 4 dans la résidence Colina Branca et nous en garderons un excellent souvenir! L appartement est idéal : très bien décoré et équipé et le plus les terrasses vue mer. La piscine est immense! La mer et aussi toutes les supérettes, bars et restaurants sont à 600m c est top on peut tout faire à pieds! Un plus pour la propreté du logement : serviettes et draps ont été lavés 2 fois et le ménage entier du logement également ! De vraies vacances! Carvoiero est une petite ville super sympa avec de superbes chemins de douaniers et il est idéalement situé pour découvrir l Algarve! Nous recommandons vivement la location de Susie. EN: We spent nearly 3 weeks in the Colina Branca residence and we will have a great memory of it! The apartment is ideal: very well decorated and equipped, and most of the terraces with a sea view. The pool is huge! The sea and also all the mini-markets, bars and restaurants are 600m away, it's great to go everywhere on foot! A plus for the cleanliness of the accommodation: towels and sheets have been washed twice and the entire house too! A real holiday! Carvoeiro is a very nice little town with superb traditional roads and is ideally located to discover the Algarve! We highly recommend Susie's rental.

The location is great, the town house is as detailed. Susie was really helpful sorting out an issue with the wifi. Would definitely go back when we return to Carvoeiro.

A great apartment with lots of space and very clean. Beautiful views to unwind too. Lovely quiet pool very close. A short walk to the town where there are shops and restaurants. Carvoeiro is a great holiday destination.

Very good accommodation in a pleasant tourist town which is not too big. Dont miss the lovely cliff walks (if you are fairly agile!)

Great stay at Susie's place - beautiful apartment in a beautiful setting. Had everything we needed and was close to the town with a good selection of restaurants and bars. Perfect stay in Carvoeiro.

This is a lovely spot and it worked very well for us. Susie was easy and quick to communicate with. The location was good, very quick walk into town albeit down several flights of stairs and quite close to some delicious pastry shops and restaurants. The view was stunning from both the main floor and upper level patios. As you a bit up the hill from town it is very quiet and peaceful even when busy in the centre. Lots of cooking utensils, pots, pans etc to make a nice meal. The place was even cleaned twice during our 10 day stay! We would gladly return.

Clean house in a quiet location, thank you.

The apartment was great. Good location with a beautiful view of the sea. Super features. Especially in the kitchen, nothing was missing. We would book again at any time.

Susies place was gorgeous. Really close to the town and beaches. Beautiful views from the terraces (one upstairs and one downstairs both with views and ample space and furniture so you can eat/sit/lounge). Very well equipped. Lovely pool! Up a little hill for those that have trouble walking, but the walk is only very short (5 mins or so). Really enjoyed our stay.

Fantastic location, lovely home. A five minute walk into town, down a series of steps or a hill (which we had to take with 2 buggies- good exercise). House had everything we needed, very comfortable. Multiple terraces were brilliant. Very clean and well maintained thank you. Pool was brilliant and always able to get beds no matter what time of day. Again poolside well maintained and clean. We were warned the third bedroom was small and had no window for our children but it was great and stayed lovely and cool. Washing machine could perhaps do with updating in near future. A brilliant stay- thank you.

Great Apartments. Really loved our stay in Carvoeiro. The apartments were great and everything you need is supplied. Susie was very helpful. Loved the location and even enjoyed the walk up the hill, walking off all the ice cream consumed!

This was an excellent property for us and our grown up children. The house is located within 5 minutes walk to the centre of the village and the beach. Susie was great right from the initial booking until we left. We were only disappointed that we hadn't booked for longer. I would recommend this accommodation, especially for families.

Excellent Villa and facilities, nice pool. clean and spacey villa close location walking into town all be it up hill coming home.

Your townhouse was above expectation, the views were amazing! We will definitely be back and will be referring people your way as well. Thanks for everything, sorry we never got a chance to meet.

The townhouse is situated in Colina Branca which is a small development of townhouses in Carvoeiro. The property is perfectly situated occupying an elevated position with excellent views over Carvoeiro. The property provides both balconies and a roof terrace all of which are ideal for sunbathing, it also benefits from an excellent shared pool, the townhouse was exactly as described in the listing and is within walking distance of Carvoeiro which offers Shops both convenience and others, Restaurants, Bars as well as an excellent Beach. Susie the property manager called during the first day to make sure that everything was OK, the townhouse was clean and very comfortable with excellent facilities. We would certainly recommend this townhouse to anyone and we look forward to returning next year all in all a wonderful holiday. Thanks.

Brilliant location. We hired a car to get from airport and travel around . Walking distance to local shops for fresh bread and milk . 5 minutes in car from large supermarket for other groceries. Very well equipped, washing machine , dishwasher, coffee maker and tumble dryer ( which we didn't need in July). Two twin bedrooms with ensuite and family bathroom. Roof terrace great. Loungers on terrace from living room. WiFi. Private pool for development. Towel and bedlinen change. Very friendly local staff who helped with any queries. Great for families. Carvoeiro very lively with loads of restaurants, shops and ice cream shops . Highly recommend.

Pluspunten: - zeer goed onderhouden vakantiewoning - ruime slaapkamers - mooi en zonnig terras - heel goede locatie, niet ver van het centrum van Carvoeiro - heel goeie service van de eigenaar - aangenaam en ruim zwembad met voldoende stoelen en parasols Minpunten: - de woning laat stilaan hier en daar zijn leeftijd zien (bijv. slecht sluitende kasten door ouderdom), maar dit is eigenlijk detail kritiek. Ik zou deze woning zeker aanbevelen aan vrienden of familie. Een vakantie aanrader is een boottocht langs de kustlijn en grotten van Carvoeiro en geniet 's avonds van een etentje in het uitstekende restaurant "Ele & Ela". Advantages:very well maintained vacation rental-large bedrooms-nice and sunny terrace-very good location, not far from the Centre of Carvoeiro-very good service by the owner - pleasant and spacious swimming pool with plenty of chairs and umbrellas. Disadvantages:-the House gradually let his age see here and there (e.g. bad closing cabinets by old age), but this is actually detail criticism. I would definitely recommend this property to friends or family. A holiday we recommend a boat trip along the coastline and caves of Carvoeiro and enjoy an evening meal in the excellent restaurant "Ele and Ela".

Fantastic location. The view down to the coastline and resort was quite spectacular. It is really difficult to fault this accommodation. It was perfect for our needs. It had all facilities and plenty of space. We really had a great time here.

We were 10 days in Carvoeiro in this wonderful accommodation. Although (or because) the House is on a hill, we had a fantastic view of the Bay and in April we were able to enjoy a leisurely breakfast in the sunshine on the balcony. Our four children felt contented and enjoyed the House and pool. It was definitely not our last time there!

We have recently returned from a fabulous holiday staying at colina branca townhouse, the townhouse was as described, if not bigger than we imagined it was going to be, and had everything we required, though we would have loved air conditioning as it was very hot. Although the bedrooms are downstairs and it is slightly cooler there. It is situated close to shops, beach and restaurants, however it is on a very steep hill and therefore not for anyone with difficulty walking! The pool was never too busy, even in August and was nice and clean. If we return to Carvoeiro, which we hope to do, we would definitely return to colina branca

Our vacation in Colina Branca, Carvoeiro was fabulous. We were very satisfied! It was a great house and the algarve is beautiful. Thank you very much for everything, we had a great vacation. Regards, Franziska Prime location, excellent facilities, very clean and well maintained, very easy to find, great terrace (s), location great (about 7 min walk), price absolutely top!! We would absolutely recommend this holiday home and will book our next stay in Carvoeiro in this house again :=)))))))))- Johann S.

The townhouses of Colina Branca are in a great location, a short walk from the town of Carvoeiro but quiet enough for a relaxing holiday. Carvoeiro itself is a good all round resort town with something for everyone. There are great local beaches within a short drive and the town beach is a short walk from Colina Branca. Theres lots to do for all age groups. The townhouses are really well proportioned with a great layout and view to the sea. Each townhouse has its own private car port immediately next to it. Bedrooms are downstairs, so really cool in the summer. Terrace is large enough for al fresco dining, with an extra roof terrace for more private sunbathing. There is a good size communal pool which is well equipped with sun loungers and umbrellas. We have stayed in this complex 3 times now and are never disappointed. Everything was exactly as had been documented, no surprises.

Magnificent location with a superb sea view, ideal for 4 persons, spacious rooms, two beautiful bathrooms, well equipped kitchen and lounge, a covered terrace with sea view for eating meals and a terrace on the roof. Very close to the town centre and the beach, there is a large communal pool with parasols and sunbeds. Also a cleaning lady several times in the week to renew the sheets and towels. (Thanks to the nice person who worked for us!) The region is superb, this rental is recommended.

We returned to France without any problem. We want to congratulate you for the benefit of the House, everything was perfect.This is a very clean, complete, practical, nice view, comfortable house. We thank you. We wish you a good season 2012. - Sylivie

We have been holidaying in Carvoeiro for the past 12 years, off and on. We have stayed in Villas as well as the Town Houses in Colina Branca. The Colina Branca houses are superb. The size of the house and the sun balcony is just perfect for our needs. It was clean and tidy and provided more than we expected. This year we had 3 generations in our party ranging from 17 to 71 and there was ample space for all including an en-suite bathroom in one of the bedrooms so my Mum had more privacy in the mornings and getting ready to go out at night. The pool is a really good size. Deep at one end and nice and shallow at the other so the pool would suit most people. We never had to get up in the morning to put towels out as there was always sun beds available regardless of the time we got to the pool and all 6 of us got a bed and a sun umbrella if needed. The whole of Carvoeiro is built on the hillside of what was probably a simple valley many centurys ago. There is no avoiding either steep hills or steps. Colina Branca is no different. You can walk up donkey hill to get to the villas or go past the hill and take the stairs. 95 steps up to our villa! After coming off the beach and having lunch in Smilers it is only 40 steps from the raod to get to the pool which was a good place to stop. I do have to say that the steps did not affect our holiday one bit. Infact it made us all feel we deserved the ice cream after dinner because we had put in a bit of extra effort using the stairs. Weve already booked for next year and just cant wait to get back to the place we feel is our second home.

Colina Branca is a small development of townhouses, and a perfect choice for a family holiday. We stayed in a 2/3 bedroom townhouse which slept 5 people comfortably. The lounge/dining area was furnished very well in Portuguese style and the patio doors opened onto a very spacious sun terrace which included sun loungers and patio furniture. There was a further rooftop sun terrace which was also very spacious and perfect for fantastic views of Carvoeiro. The kitchen was very well equipped even ice packs in the freezer and cool bag to use. The bedrooms were very comfortable each with small private sun terraces. The communal pool area was superb with lots of sun loungers and sun umbrellas. The village/beach is no more than 10 minutes walk from the complex, and you are made very welcome by the locals in all the cafe bars/shops and restaurants. We will certainly be returning to Colina Branca. Thank you

We had an excellent stay in Carvoeiro, the rental was very clean and very well maintained. The location is very well equipped and has a magnificent view. It is very nice to lunch and dinner on the terrace. The swimming pool of the residence is also very well maintained. No negative point to this location. We were a couple with three children (11 years, 10 years and 20 months) and I recommend this location for families or even friends as the city centre is nearby to go and party. We went regularly on foot to the centre of Carvoeiro for lively evenings (restaurants, pubs, rides for children, shops....) Advice: go for it!

The house at Colina Branca was absolutely delightful. It had the feel of a lighthouse with two spiral staircases and each room had its own balcony. The bedrooms were spacious and equipped with large wardrobes and cupboards. The top floor looked out onto a wonderful view of the sea over the domed roofs of the other houses. We particularly liked the pool and spent long hours there. It was private and surrounded by flowering plants. The pool was an adequate size to have a decent swim and was 3 metres deep at one end, being shallow at the other. Plenty of sunbeds and parasols were available. The house was only a short walk from the town which offered a good selec tion of restaurants and bars. There was a lively atmosphere with live music on several evenings and the beach was only five minutes away. The cleaner came halfway through the week to clean and change the linen - good service.

This was our third visit to Carveiro and our second to Colina Branca. The house has everything you need to ensure a more than comfortable stay. Great sun terrace, cool fresh bedrooms and a well equipped kitchen. My parents travelled with us this year and they loved both the house and the village. We used the market most days and on the days we chose to eat out there was so much to choose from. We also received great support and advice for things we wanted to do from Susie at Carvoeiro Villa Holidays. A great family holiday.....see you next year!
