Casa das Conchas

Casa das Conchas, a hidden gem situated in the heart of Carvoeiro, is a tastefully refurbished fisherman's cottage. This well-appointed property is only 200 metres from the beach and central square of Carvoeiro and is close to all amenities including a wide selection of restaurants and bars.

By way of a charming tiled porch, you enter the house into the bright and spacious dining room from where there is a view of the ocean. Then, via a wide stairway of three steps you enter the comfortable living area with wood-burning fire and adjacent open kitchen equipped with all modern appliances. The house offers two en-suite bedrooms: One has 2 single beds and the other bedroom has a queen sized double bed. Both bedrooms have good sized wardrobes. Both bathrooms are equipped with a shower, and one also has a bath. Through the back door you enter into the charming courtyard. A calming and relaxing space with table, 4 chairs and an electric awning to give shade when the sun is overhead. It is an ideal place for alfresco dining. It has a fixed coal barbecue. From here you can access a separate laundry room equipped with washing machine and dryer. A tiled stairway leads up to the spacious roof terrace which is bathed in sunshine from early morning until the sun goes down. From here you can enjoy fantastic views over Carvoeiro, and one of the best views of the ocean to be found anywhere in the village. The view is spectacular and the terrace is a perfect spot to enjoy a cool drink while watching the stunning sunsets.

There is a TV with many international channels including Dutch, English, French and German. Fibre Wi-Fi is also provided. There is an aircon/heater in the living room as well as in the double bedroom. There are additional heaters and a log-burning fire available to keep you cosy for the cooler months.

Great apartment

Lovely 2 bedroom simple house with great flat roof area for sun bathing, chilling and watching the sunset. Good contact with property management throughout, who were very helpful. The courtyard was a bit dusty and we couldn’t find a dustpan but we had a great time and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. Plenty of dining and socialising options very close by

Fantastic! The property was very spacious & well maintained, with a charming little private courtyard with a BBQ to spend the evenings sipping wine & eating. Having a separate bathroom for both bedrooms was handy. Brilliant location & very close proximity to the town center / beach / shops / restaurants. John was also extremely helpful.

Carvoeiro Beauty

This wonderful, spacious apartment is so conveniently located with only a short walk to the beach, lots of shops and the spectacular boardwalk overlooking the Mediterranean. It is well kept and kitchen is well stocked. It’s bright and the delightful courtyard patio is cozy and provides shade when the rooftop area is too sunny. We spent several evenings watching the sunset from the rooftop! Thank you to to Rocha Rentals who were great to communicate with through the whole process. A gem of a place in a beautiful little town!

The communication with the agency (John & Susan) was excellent when booking and on site. The guidebook (app) was informative and helpful. Check-in was uncomplicated with the key safe. A small problem in the house was solved immediately and to our complete satisfaction. The house offers plenty of space and is very well equipped. In addition, it was very clean and well maintained. The location is very central. You can reach the beach and the city center (with bars, restaurants and small shops) in a few minutes on foot. The local beach was too crowded for us personally and too seaweed when we were there, so we drove to various nearby beaches/bays in a rental car. We felt very comfortable and had a great time!

Very comfortable - even in winter

The Casa is well equipped and comfortable also during the winter months. With the mild Portuguese winter, we even made ample use of the rooftop terrace and enjoyed the quiet as well as the lovely views. The accommodation is spacious enough for four people. Centrally located in the village. An amazing coastal walk makes Carvoeiro an attractive holiday location also for hikers. Finding parking was no problem (December / January). Very friendly contact with the agency. They were quick to reply to any questions and proactively provide information about the Casa and the environment, which helped to make our stay even more enjoyable.

Great rental in a great position in a great location!

House location is excellent and has everything you need, the kitchen is particularly well equipped. The property is also enhanced by a huge roof terrace. We really enjoyed our stay here as it is in a quiet location (we were there in late March) but just a few minutes walk to centre and beach. The area is also perfect for coastal treks with magnificent views. I would provide more lighting! I know it’s a very individual preference but there just were not enough table or floor lamps around. Maybe odd rug, inside door Mat etc. maybe that’s not needed in summer but in winter spring months would make house perfect!

The house is in a perfect location

The house is in a perfect location, with a quick walk into town, to the beach, to shops and restaurants. It is on a hill, so a bit of a climb back to it but after a few days I barely noticed it. We brought a car and found street parking easily. John, the property manager was helpful, responsive, and had a great attitude. Really, he was terrific. It was a clean, comfortable and decently equipped house. Maybe would have been nice to have a few more basic food items in the kitchen, like oil and vinegar, but that was a tiny thing. Now that I have said that, let me really tell you about our stay: We drove in from Lisbon, unloaded and my husband hit the couch with a migraine. I bounced from rooftop to courtyard to front porch yelling ‘look at this’ and ‘oh my goodness it’s gorgeous’ over and over until I finally took pity on him and ran down the hill into town and explored. Every morning I would do the walk to a bakery and pick up bread and a treat, we would read up on the terrace (other than three cold and rainy days), wander through the many trails that are close by, sit on the beach, and either cook a simple mealenjoy a different restaurant. It was a magical place and I highly recommend it.

Maison de pêcheur

Belle maison. Tout ce qu’il faut dans la cuisine et beaux meubles de salon et salle à manger. Pas de climatisation dans la petite chambre et lits jumeaux très étroits. Oreillers inconfortables, trop dures. Pas de drap dans les lits seulement une couette dans son étui et un drap contour mais propres. Ce qui nous a surtout déçues c’est la difficulté à se stationner sur la rue en pente, pas d’espace dédiée pour la voiture, on doit stationner sur le trottoir.Personne pour nous accueillir, on récupère la clef dans une boîte à code de sécurité. Toutefois beaucoup d’informations nous ont été transmises via un site.

Schöner Urlaub im Casa das Conchas

Die Kommunikation mit der Agentur (John & Susan) war bei der Buchung sowie vor Ort hervorragend. Das guidebook (App) war informativ und hilfreich. Check-in war mit dem key-safe unkompliziert. Ein kleines Problem im Haus wurde umgehend und zu unserer vollsten Zufriedenheit gelöst. Das Haus bietet viel Platz und ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Außerdem war es sehr sauber und gepflegt. Die Lage ist sehr zentral. Man erreicht in wenigen Fußminuten Strand und Innenstadt (mit Bars, Restaurants und kleinen Shops). Der Strand vor Ort war uns persönlich zu überlaufen und zu unserer Zeit zu algig gewesen, sodass wir mit dem Mietwagen an diverse Strände/Buchten in der Nähe gefahren sind. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und hatten eine schöne Zeit!
