Guest Reviews
- Jens (9/5): Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und können das Hotel absolut weiterempfehlen. - Toplage, ruhige und familiäre Anlage, netter Frühstücksraum mit viel Obst und frischgebackenem Kuchen zum Frühstück, Parken auf der Anlage, täglich frisches Wasser auf dem Zimmer, Zimmer etwas klein, Algenplage am Strand (aber dafür kann das die Villa Welwitshia nichts)
- elodie (9/5): -
- Megan (9/5): - Very friendly staff who were more than happy to help with recommendations.
- Catherine (10/5): We hope to return to Portugal, and will definitely stay here if possible. - Staff gave us information and directions for sites to see. Warmer weather would have made the pool more inviting. Breakfast was good. Restaurant across the street had the best shrimp peri-peri of our whole trip. There was not anything lacking in our stay. It was a very nice place to stay for our last night in Portugal.
- Denise (9/5): Comfortable stay and very walkable to cliff walks and center of town. - Quiet and spacious but close to center of town. Casa Palmeira across the street was a wonderful restaurant that we went to twice. There was a noticeable odor by day 2 of our 3 day stay which emanated from the bathroom, acknowledged by the staff.
- Audrey (10/5): -
- veroverde (8/5): Hermoso lugar para visitar Carvoeiro a pie - Buena ubicación y desayuno. La.habitación tenía una pequeña terraza que daba a un espacio verde. Se escuchaba mucho los ruidos de la habitación de al lado.
- Fernández (9/5): -
- Loredana (8/5): Locatie plăcută - Locația a fost foarte bine poziționată, cu acces facil către alte puncte de interes. Ce nu mi-a plăcut a fost faptul că micul dejun a fost același pe toată durata sejurului, ceea ce nu a fost tocmai plăcut. De asemenea, au lipsit legumele din oferta de mic dejun.
- Brigitte (8/5): -
- Dianne R (9/5): We really enjoyed our stay, friendly staff and very clean. - Close to town, many restaurants close by.
- PEI JU (10/5): - 早餐和周邊環境都很讚 沒有
- Carole (8/5): Grande chambre mais manque d'insonorisation - L'emplacement, la grandeur de la chambre, la propreté, la gentillesse du personnel. Pas d'insonorisation, on entend le voisin tousser, prendre sa douche....
Quelques améliorations permettraient de relever la qualité du lieu, notamment un voilage aux fenêtres pour plus d'intimité, une machine à café, même une boîte à mouchoirs pourquoi pas....
- Jenny (9/5): -
- Veruska (10/5): Perfeito! - O local é maravilhoso! Super bem localizado, café da manhã bem variado e com uma vista linda, quarto muito confortável, roupas de cama e banho cheirosas e chuveiro muito bom!
Tem um espaço com piscina muito bonito e aconchegante e que pega bastante sol!
Sem falar dos funcionários que são extremamente atenciosos e simpáticos!
Amamos tudo!

- Tábata (10/5): A Isabela foi muito simpática e receptiva, explicou tudo sobre as atrações do local com dicas super interessantes. - O fato de ser uma suite reservada e ensolarada.
- anne-sylvie (7/5): - L'accueil, la chambre spacieuse et confortable, l'extérieur calme ....La piscine même si l'eau un peu fraîche et petit déjeuner buffet, large choix sucré et salé...!!! La cote pour monter à l'établissement mais on est au Portugal...c'est habituel !!!

Staff very helpful

It was a comfortable stay, very close to the town (5 min walk), the good locations are also just 10-15 mins walk away.. highly recommended.

MUy buen desayuno Me gustó todo por poner un pero un día no le hicieron la cama a mi hija pero tampoco le di más importancia.
- Mélodie (7/5): Adapté à un séjour de plusieurs jours - Très spacieux, petite terrasse avec table, petit frigo, bouilloire, beaucoup de rangement, y compris dans la salle de bain
Accueil agréable. Emplacement assez proche du centre-ville et au calme. Parking gratuit . Terrasse autour de la piscine bien aménagée. Piscine ensoleillée Literie assez inconfortable, y compris le canapé. Oreiller trop dur.

- Michael (10/5): Great stay in Algarve - We enjoyed the warmth,friendly fown to earth people who work here. We felt most welcome the moment we stepped in the door. People make the difference. Isabella in reception and her mom who bakes and provided a "Laranja" birthday cake for my wife. It was delicious and unanticipated. A clean place all over with a sunny swimming pool and spacious deck with unbreakable and easy relaxation chairs. Isabella also gave us tips on where to eat, depending on what foods we would enjoy. Chicken piri-piri, and Sea Bass next door as we had just arrived in the evening and we were ready to taste a bit of "The Algarve". There was nothing about this guest house we didn't like. It was clean,spacious and quiet day & night.

- LauraM94 (8/5): -
- Noreen (10/5): - The hosts were extremely helpful and friendly and go over and above for their guests. We appreciated the little touches, fresh towels at the pool every day and the cleanliness of the room with fresh water put in the fridge daily.
The breakfast was lovely and plentiful and the villa itself was very peaceful and relaxing.
- Carol29sm (9/5): - O quarto era grande e com boa limpeza. Staff muito simpático. Pequeno almoço simples mas bom. Tem estacionamento privado. Faltou só haver café de grão e a TV do quarto já está um pouco desatualizada
- swati (8/5): - Property is located at convenient location and the stay was very pleasant Coffee machine needs to be changed as the machine doesn’t dispense good coffee due to use of milk powder.

- Peggy (10/5): - Très bon emplacement, personnel agréable Manque d'insonorisation

Breakfast included a lovely homemade cake each day. Mirror in bathroom lights up and can change lighting for makeup. Pool was pristine. Location was quiet but central N/A
- Mehdi (9/5): Wohlfühloase im Grünen - Die Villa Welwitshia ist ein kleines, pieksauberes Boutique-Hotel in einem ruhigen, grünen Vorort von Cavoeiro. Die helle, maritime Ausstattung, die herzliche Gastfreundschaft von Isabela und nicht zuletzt die Zimmerterrasse mit Blick ins Grüne sorgen für Wohlfühlatmosphäre pur. Es fehlt an nichts - sogar ein schöner Pool mit Liegen und Sonnenschirmen sowie ein kostenloser Privatparklatz sind vorhanden.

Local restaurant and minimarket just opposite, otherwise a short walk to the main street, beach and boardwalk
- Stefanie (10/5): Perfekt für Weekend-Getaway - Das Personal ist total herzlichen. Wir haben uns direkt gut aufgehoben gefühlt. Das zimmer mit Balkon war sehr geräumig und sauber. Das Frühstück war einfach, aber lecker. Die Unterkunft ist ca. 5 Minuten vom Meer entfernt Das Bett war mir persönlich etwas zu weich, aber sonst war alles spitze.

Le logement est à 5 min du centre ville à pied. La piscine au calme. Nous avions une chambre avec vue sur un mur, et qui était bruyante car en face de la salle de petit déjeuner!

We didin’t use pool, but looked also clean with nice patio seating and garden. Later check out than usual, so we managed to get breakfast and even morning swim with a shower before leaving. Would definitely stay again in this hotel and also in Carvoeiro! Would prefer better coffee/capucino but that is really a small thing.
- 07a3f8267bab702da14309f00311104d (9/5): Great place to stay - Location was great. Just a 5 minute walk down the hill to town but super quiet at night. Beds were very comfortable and having private parking was an added bonus. Staff were friendly and helpful. There was an unpleasant odour that came out of the bathroom pipes periodically.

- 91918e1bd6b773ab22824e6dfa7247a8 (10/5): - Great location - close to the city center, yet quiet and peaceful. The villa is beautiful and well-maintained; the rooms are clean, spacious, and comfortable. The owner was very kind and friendly; he was happy to tell us where to go and what to see, and he also explained the origins of the hotel's unique name. We were only passing through for a day, but we'd gladly return for a longer stay ❤️
- 77042f8b4ebf71bbebe0eb9a1497aa29 (10/5): - Emplacement au top tout peux ce faire a pieds

- françoise (9/5): Extra - Hôtel à taille humaine, idéalement situé sur les hauteurs de Carvoeiro, super pour la tranquilité, mais à seulement 15 mn à pied du centre ville et de la plage. Un grand parking privé. La chambre était spacieuse, bien équipée, d'une propreté irréprochable, avec une bonne literie et bien insonorisée. Le petit déjeuner en libre service avait de quoi satisfaire tous les goûts et les appétits ! Nous avons été accueillis avec le sourire et l'on a répondu à toutes nos questions.
C'est un hôtel où nous aurions plaisir à revenir et que nous recommanderions à nos amis.

- CHARLENE (9/5): Chill Beachy Vibes - Loved the esthetic, space, location, and value. Room 16 is beside reception (where breakfast is served) and can get very loud in the morning. If my room were in a different location this stay would be a 10/10 for me.

Also excellent local restaurant across the road! Parking included! Lovely breakfast with a fresh homemade cake everyday by the owners mom! Beautiful area. Well it was okay for us some travellers might find the walk up the hill to return to the hotel a bit tricky but you can always drive into town.
- Christian (10/5): -
- Heleen (9/5): Rustige plek op loopafstand van het centrum - Helaas nog wat fris maar het zwembad is prima! Er staan voldoende ligstoelen omheen en er liggen handdoeken klaar.
Het ligt goed in de zon dat is fijn. Onze kamer zag er wat minder knus uit dan op de foto's maar alles was er wel, zo ook een fijn buitenzitje.
De tegelvloer voelde koud aan, maar dat zal in de zomer anders zijn.
- Consuelo Assunta (10/5): -
