Tivoli Carvoeiro
Had a terrific stay in March. A beautiful resort in a nice location. Really enjoyed our time, especially the view, the breakfast buffet, the bar (including the amazing bar staff!), our room, and the overall level of service. Would recommend if you're wanting to stay in this area. Only negative is ...
