The property is stunning, and was just perfect for me and my family. its in a lovely residential area, which was just so peaceful and relaxing, and the pool area was wonderful. Any questions we had was answered straight away, we were made to feel very comfortable in what can be described as a beautiful family. Thank you xx home
Just returned from 2 weeks family holiday. Beautiful villa with traditional ceiling in the lounge. The villa is maintained exceptionally well, cleaned 3 times per week, pool cleaned weekly. The pool was so relaxing with the July/August weather, with plenty of seating area to watch the sky divers, or relax in the sunshine. The villa is about 3 minutes walking from local restaurant, 6 minutes to supermarket and about 12 minutes to Alvor. So many restaurants, bars and shops. Lovely place to stay. Missing Alvor already.
Personally we missed having air conditioning in the lounge and bedrooms, but fans are available to rent if required.
Le logement correspondait parfaitement à nos attentes et aux photos.
Carmen a été très accessible et très gentille tout le long du séjour.
Je recommande vivement et n’hésiterai pas à la recontacter si je devais revenir en Algarve :)
We really enjoyed our stay at Carmen’s villa. The check in process was smooth and there is everything you need for a comfortable stay. We enjoyed the pool area aswell as the back garden. There is loads of space to spread out if you are a larger group.
It was good to have the housekeeper popping in for linen and towel changes and she also did some washing for us.
We hired a car and felt this was useful for supermarket runs and visiting the local area but it isn’t essential.
Comfortable, well equipped and really interesting style combining tasteful old with modern convenience. Filomena, the house keeper was lovely, efficient and unobtrusive. The owner Carmen was very attentive and solved all the early niggles immediately. This is a great Villa for a family or a couple. Walking distance to some good restaurants too. Beds super comfortable. Linen change very regular and of great quality.
Villa was very impressive, the pictures dont do it justice. The villa is huge inside and out. Beautiful pool area, kitchen fully kitted out with everything you would need, honestly cant fault anything. We had a perfect holiday, teenagers loved it too. Thank you Carmen for letting us stay in your lovely villa
Perfect villa. Everything you could possibly need for a perfect holiday. Good location and spacious. We as a family had the perfect base for a fun filled and well needed relaxing break. Highly recommend.
Had a fabulous stay in casa da Oliveira with three kids under 10 ! Pool was lovely and villa was beautiful , really authentic Portuguese. Would recommend car if kids coming but great location for adults , really quiet which is what we wanted . Filomena was great and host was lovely very responsive and helpful. Would love to return some time !
Fantastic holiday. Located only 5 mins from couple of great wee bars and restaurants and only 10-15 mins walk to the town. The villa itself is so relaxing, We sat on the patio reading and enjoying getting in the pool to keep cool. Housekeeping was done a couple of times and the pool guy comes around to keep the pool clean. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a holiday in Alvor.
A gem, perfectly tucked away in Alvor!
We stayed for a week. The owner and housekeeper were very helpful, responsive, and friendly.
The property is in great condition and is very spacious and clean. The location is great too. In a quiet part of town but walking distance to the centre of Alvor.
We especially loved the quiet pool area with far reaching views and great sunsets! Highly recommended for couples or families.
Fabulous Villa in excellent location with beautiful views
We have just had the most special time with our family including our 1st grandchild of 5 months old. The villa is exceptionally clean with a homely spacious feeling, offering all the facilities and equipment you need; including lovely outside/poolside areas in peaceful surroundings.
Location is excellent, very near to the local supermarket and only a 10-15 minute walk to the centre of Alvor.
Very friendly housekeeper on hand if you have any questions or needs
All in all would recommend 100% and will definitely be back
Wonderful villa in a lovely quite location within easy walking distance of every thing you need and more
a real home from home place, well maintained and spotlessly clean, exceptionally comfortable beds, lovely pool.
Host, Carmen couldn't be more helpful from start to finish and we would most certainly return in the future
Our family of 5 had a wonderful week staying at Villa D’Oliveira. It is every bit as lovely as the photos on the website show. The owner Carmen was extremely helpful and attentive and made sure our holiday ran smoothly from beginning to end. We particularly enjoyed lazy days outside by the pool and the views from the villa at sunset are breathtaking. Would definitely recommend.
We had a wonderful week in Carmen’s fantastic villa (3 adults and 3 teenagers). The location is perfect as it’s a 15 minute walk to Alvor with all the restaurants, bars and cafes, and a 20 minute walk to the lovely beach. As it’s away from the town it’s generally quiet with only occasional barking from a neighbour’s dog. The villa is huge with a well stocked kitchen. The pool is a good size and there is so much outside space. You can watch the skydivers while having breakfast by the pool. Filomena popped in every few days to check if we needed anything and Carmen was always quick to respond to queries. Would recommend a meal in the closest restaurant Dom Joao-fantastic Portuguese food. Also recommend using Alvor boat trips to see the caves and go snorkelling. The nearest supermarket is only a 5 minute walk away. Would highly recommend this villa and Alvor is a great location. Thank you Carmen.
Wir waren rundum begeistert von dieser wunderschönen Ferienvilla. Bereits die Planung der Reise war angenehm, da unsere Gastgeberin Carmen uns mit allen wichtigen Infos versorgt hatte. Das Haus selbst ist in Wirklichkeit noch schöner als auf den Fotos, sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet, mit allem ausgestattet, was man benötigt, um sich wohlzufühlen. Im Garten gibt es sogar eine kleine Ecke mit frischen Kräutern, die man ernten darf. Der sehr schöne Pool war sauber und wurde regelmäßig gereinigt. Besonders zu erwähnen ist Filomena, die liebenswerte und sehr sympathische Hilfe, die alle zwei Tage u.a. zum Wechseln der Handtücher, Reinigen etc kommt. Carmen und Filomena waren sogar so fürsorglich, dass sie uns an einem Sonntag noch extra mit Ventilatoren wegen der Hitzewelle versorgt haben. Insgesamt haben wir uns absolut wohlgefühlt in diesem kleinen Paradies. Vielen Dank, Carmen, für Ihre Gastfreundschaft, und vielen Dank auch an Filomena. Alvor selbst ist ein hübsches, nicht zu überlaufenes Fischerdorf mit einem schönen Hafen und sauberem Strand. Gute Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Markt sowie Restaurants in der Nähe. Von hier aus lassen sich Küste und Hinterland prima erkunden, und mit Kindern kann man einen wunderbaren und abwechslungsreichen Urlaub verbringen.
Pre pandemic we had this property booked, from the moment we had to cancel it was our intention when the situation was allowed we would be going. Very easy to review a property that was everything it said it was. Carmen was a joy to deal with, very responsive and attentive. The maid was lovely and did her work quietly and without bothering us. Little to add except if you want a quiet break within easy walking of lovely Alvor this is well worth a visit. We travelled as 2 x 60 year old couples, thank you
Highly recommend! My family and I (5 adults- 3 generations) recently spent 10 days at this house and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The host, location and property were perfect! We used this house as our home base to visit neighbouring sites in the morning and relaxed by the pool in the afternoons. We have shared this property info with our friends and highly recommend Carmen and her home should anyone come to Portugal. 5 stars!

….a very welcome getaway
After eighteen months of Covid isolation, it was a real treat to get away to this villa in Alvor. The house was very well appointed, the weather was fine, and it was really peaceful. The host was very helpful and responsive, notably for putting us in touch with Maria, a local woman to come and cook some excellent meals for us. As is normal, there were one or two minor issues (e.g. re appliances), and the pool was not Olympic size, which the photo suggested. But since it was late September the pool was a bit too cool anyway. We all had a good time, and the villa was an excellent base for visiting beaches and towns in the Algave. A great getaway.
Uma excelente semana passada em família!
As condições da casa são ótimas, casa moderna, muito bem equipada e decorada, espaço dos quartos muito bons, o exterior oferece bons momentos de relaxamento com muitas espreguiçadeiras, uma boa piscina, um vista privilegiada para o por do sol, a localização é muito boa, temos privacidade , zona muito tranquila! Proprietária Carmen sempre muito simpática e disponível, bem como a Filomena senhora que vem a meio da semana, também muito simpática e prestável! Aconselho a 200%!!!

Why they chose this property
Many years ago I decided to settle down on this beutiful region because of its mild climate , white sandy beaches and beautiful nature .It offers not only the cosiness of a small village ,but also the facilities of a big city ( Portimão ). The villa is set on a small urbanization ,very calm , away from traffic , on a cul-de-sac ,ideal for families with children. I loved the place from the very first minute and that's the reason why it is my third home here .
What makes this property unique
Beaches and village at walking distance, a good supermarket and bakery with oldf fashion oven rolls, good road net and regular buses to the beach and Portimão at aprox. 70 m from the house ,as well as special buses to the waterparks , in short ,a whole range of possibilities and activities for the whole family. For sport and delta flyers and parashoot jumpers , there's an active airfield at about 1,5 km distance only.
