- Lovely villa, outside space dry and neglected (on purpose as explained by our villa manager) so not the nicest to look at or spend time in.

Quinta do Paraíso’s pristine white Moorish-style buildings are set amongst beautiful mature gardens laden with fig, almond and olive trees and vibrant bougainvillea.
Staff at this friendly resort are dedicated to creating a fun, relaxing holiday environment for children and adults alike. Daytime activities range from tennis and beach volleyball to mini golf and boules, while in the evenings the entertainment includes dinner shows, open-air parties and live music.
It’s only a 15 minute walk or a short shuttle bus ride to the picturesque fishing village of Carvoeiro where shops, cafés, bars and restaurants surround the golden beach. A little further along the coast you’ll find a wide choice of secluded sandy coves while the waterparks at Lagoa and Alcantarilha are well worth a day trip.

- Lovely villa, nicely furnished. Few furnishings showing their age. Unusually high toilets!

Michelle
Portsmouth Family (the eldest child is at school)
- The villa was lovely and quiet, however there is a very strong damp smell which I assume was caused by the air conditioning units that seemed to permeate everything. The villa was very clean and the decor was nice. One of the chairs at the outside table was broken and couldn't be used. The pool area was nice although there were a few tiles missing off the bottom.

Leighton Buzzard Family (the eldest child is at school)
- We loved the villa but there were a couple of things that could be improved.
1, The pillows were so thin we all had to put cushions underneath to sleep.
2, The villa was advertised with a garden but the grass was all dead so our young children could not play on it so they just had the patio area to play on .
3 There was no welcome pack . We arrived about 9.30 pm with two small children. A basic pack of milk, bread ,butter and water would have been welcome

Leeds Family (the eldest child is at school)
- Casa Flor was a perfect family villa. It was very well equipped for a family of four. We enjoyed the outdoor spaces and certainly made the most of the swimming pool. It was ideally located enabling both privacy and proximity to the facilities of Quinta do Paraíso and Carvoeiro and beyond. We hope to visit again.

Potton, Beds Couple
- We found the resort of Quinta do Paraiso very good and our 2 bed bungalow was comfortable & exactly what we wanted. We were there in mid June 2019 and it was relatively quiet, not sure what it will be like in full season although the resort & villas were spread out quite well. Community pools were well kept and plenty of sunbathing space. There is a shuttle bus service into town & return service 3 times a day but only an 8 seater bus so you may have to wait for the second (or third) run. We would be happy to book this accommodation again.

A well designed and well equipped villa of a high standard. A bonus having three bathrooms to three bedrooms.
