Amazing property and Jim was a great host. Would highly recommend the stay. Rooms were clean, pool was great and it was in a great location for getting around albufeira via taxi.
Jim was a great host and very attentive to our needs. The House was spacious, pool excellent, bedrooms and bathrooms very comfortable and able to accommodate the needs of such a large group. The location was also great with beaches, restaurants and bars within close walking distance. If we needed anything such as transfers/taxis, rubbish removed, fridge and oven checked it was done quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend Jim and this villa.
28 of us stayed here this weekend for my hen party, villa is great location for both old and new town only 5 minutes in a taxi, great communication with Jim and he happily answered any of our questions before and during the stay! Will definitely be returning!
Quinta de Carmo was perfect for our stay! We were a group of 18 and there was plenty of room. Most having their own bedroom. Jim was great at communicating
We had an excellent stay and the House is perfect for bigger groups. We as a family enjoyed every evening at the fireplace to heat our environment. The outdoor experience, such as BBQ and the Pool were the perfect match for our intention.
The villa is absolutely stunning. We stayed in a villa last year in Spain for a similar price and this one was miles ahead. It was premium and well kept. The location is great with lots of Caffes and the beach nearby. It is a short bolt/Uber in to albufeira and was overall great for a group of 25-30 year olds to enjoy for a week. The host Jim was great at resolving things for us and kept in touch with us throughout. Would definitely recommend!
The Villa was lovely, great location near shops and the town. Jim was fantastic - very helpful and great at communicating, the check in/out process was easy and were very lucky to be able to check in early and check out late which suited our flight times. Would definitely be back!
We were a group of 14 girls staying for a hen party!! It was just perfect!! Amazing communication!! Amazing location!! Amazing villa!! Thanks so much!!
We had an amazing stay here for my 40th birthday . 20 friends . Lots of space and all beautifully clean . We had lots of communication from start to finish and had an amazing in house chef recommended by our host . Many thanks for having us .
Nice and clean. Loved the pool. Perfect location. Very helpful and well arranged with transfers.
For a large group it would be desirable with one or two more coffe machines. Also a kind of ”restaurant dishwasher”/a larger one.
Stayed here for my sister’s hen party. Lovely spacious clean villa. There were 26 of us and we had plenty of space. Jim was so helpful throughout with the planning. Villa very close to new town. We used uber and would range from €5-8 to new and old town. Large supermarket less than a 5minute walk and loads small restaurants near by. Highly recommend.
From start to finish, our stay was absolutely superb. The communication from Jim throughout our stay was second to none. Very responsive and always quick to help and answer questions. Check in process and transfers were flawless, all coordinated by Jim the property manager. We went to celebrate our friends hen do, 21 people. Everything was perfect. Close to shops and supermarkets, close to night life, pool and accommodation grounds were great. We had a DJ and food delivered to the villa which really made the weekend. Just a fabulous weekend had by all.
Villa was amazing and had everything we needed. Close to both the strip and old town square. Shops, cafes and restaurants all in walking distance. Stayed with a group of 25 of us, perfect for our hen party. Jim was very helpful, he went above and beyond with everything and his communication was very efficient and informative.
The only negative we had to the villa is the basement rooms are very damp and have mould on walls. Would definitely recommend but avoid using the 4 basement rooms. There’s plenty of room on the ground and first floor.
In general this is a lovely spacious property which is well set out. Unfortunately it appears that they have had a flood in the basement which leaves two of the rooms not habitable because of blown plaster and mould. The pool was lovely once it was cleaned but initially was bright green. There were quite a few snags such as broken shutters, lights and sockets which did not work and became annoying. Just needs a bit of a smarten up otherwise we had a lovely time.
Fantastic villa, which accommodated 36 in our group for the family holiday. (4 months to 50's yrs). Jim was exceptional with his communication and organisation leading up to the trip. He made sure everything was in place and we were well informed with the local amenities.
The villa was huge and provided everything we required from cots, high chairs to extra fold out beds and bath towels. The air conditioning in the bedrooms was great and well needed. All ages loved the pool and games room which kept the fun going all week.
Location is great as there are plenty of restaurants and bars, beaches and supermarkets within walking distance. Both the old town and new strip were a short taxi ride away - uber or tuc tuc highly recommended.
I would certainly recommend Qunita do Carmo for families and hope to return again.

Disappointed
We had a good holiday here but the villa really put a damper on it. Excuse the pun! We had planned our rooms so that everyone would have their own space either as couples or singles and that wasn’t to be or even addressed.
✅ Jim was superb throughout the booking process over a few years due to covid! He was efficient and answered all questions quickly and cohesively. Booking through him was easy and we would definitely use him and VRBO again.
✅ the location was great. The beach is a short walk away. There’s a lovely cafe / restaurant on the beach and there’s water sport options too.
✅ supermarket facilities and options are plentiful all a short dusyance away - Aldi, Intermarche and Apolonia. Some walkable, mostly short car ride.
✅ Bin facilities were a 10 minute walk or quick drive away.
✅ the bed rooms were all good in size with excellent wardrobe spaces, good furniture and comfortable beds.
✅ The bathrooms were lovely. Large showers and a lovely finish to them.
✅ The inside living area was great - spacious, sofas were comfy and the table was big.
✅ the outside eating area was good. The BBQ was big and easy to use. (However the table only just fit us - a party of 19 - so if the house was full I’d question where everyone could sit)
✅ getting Ubers was super easy.
Cons.
❌ the four en-suite bedrooms in the basement could not be slept in / used. There was evidence of a flood and the smell of damp was very pronounced and unpleasant. It made the rooms uninh
Really enjoyed the pool. The size of the villa was amazing for a big group of us. Villa was very clean and our Host was amazing at responding to any queries we had. Thanks again!
