My wife and I just left Tivoli Carvoeiro this morning after a 3-night stay. There are many good things to say about this hotel, and I would really want to mention the following two. First, the hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. In particular, our waiter at the breakfast buffet (which is wonderful by the way), Goncalo, always had a smile and made sure we got everything we need. He was so attentive and personable that we were looking forward to seeing him every morning. When we left the breakfast hall this morning we asked Goncalo whether my wife and I could take a photo with him. He graciously accepted our request and took us to a spot with a beautiful view. Thank you very much, Goncalo!!! Second, my wife celebrated her birthday during our stay at the hotel. And we were very pleasantly surprised when we came back to our room in the evening on my wife’s birthday and saw a bottle of Champagne on ice and a beautiful cake, with glasses and silverware. Such a memorable experience!
