Casa Garota
A refurbished single-storey villa in green, leafy Vale do Milho
Casa Garota is a comfortable, beautifully refurbished 2-bedroom villa tucked away in the quiet, green setting of Vale do Milho - a short drive from the centre of Carvoeiro and an easy walk through the valley to Centeanes beach.
With a private pool (heated on request), a sun-drenched terrace, and air conditioning throughout, it's an ideal base for a couple, a small family, or two friends sharing.
The villa sleeps up to 4 adults (or any mix of adults and children), plus 1 baby in a cot. The cot and highchair are included in the price.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms
There are two bedrooms, each with a double bed, and two bathrooms. One en suite to the main bedroom, the second serving the rest of the house. Both bedrooms are air-conditioned. The villa is single-storey throughout, with a ground-floor bedroom and a walk-in shower - a useful note for anyone who'd rather not deal with stairs.
Living Space
The spacious living and dining room overlooks the pool terrace, with patio doors drawing the outside in. There's a TV, free Wi-Fi, and heating for cooler months, including a fire in the lounge for winter stays.
Kitchen
The fully fitted kitchen has everything you'd want for a comfortable home from home: oven, hob, dishwasher, microwave, fridge/freezer, coffee maker, kettle, toaster, and a small pantry of basics on arrival.
Pool & Outdoor Areas
A private pool sits at the heart of the terrace - heatable on request, which extends the season nicely into spring and autumn. The terrace is laid out with garden furniture, sun loungers, and a purpose-built charcoal BBQ for long lunches and easy al fresco evenings. Electric gates open onto a private driveway with off-street parking.

Vale do Milho is one of Carvoeiro's quietest, leafiest neighbourhoods, a short drive (around 5 minutes) from the village centre, and within walking distance through the valley to Centeanes beach.
There's a 9-hole pitch-and-putt course just up the road, and tennis nearby.
Once a fishing village, Carvoeiro has grown into a thriving holiday resort while keeping much of its old-town charm, whitewashed houses, painted boats, and a clifftop walk that traces the coast east toward the Algar Seco rock formations.
The village has a central beach, plenty of cafés and restaurants, a diving centre, and boat trips out to the famous caves and grottos at Benagil and Marinha. Live music plays in the square through the summer months.
Within around 15 minutes by car you'll find Slide & Splash water park and Zoomarine, where the children can swim with dolphins. Three championship 18-hole golf courses are around 10 minutes away, alongside the daily market town of Lagoa.
