The location was ideal for exploring Cavoeiro by foot and the Algarve by car. We enjoyed the picnic breakfast on the deck, with a great view of the beach. Staff were expecially helpful with recommendations for dining and help booking a tour. They even offered to mail a lost earring to us.

Beautiful property with a great location. Staff were very helpful and accommodating. The town main plaza and beach are walking distance. About 5 min downhill. There is free parking available in the street. There is a small grocery store at walking distance too (about 10 min uphill). We enjoyed our terrace breakfast (not included but very worth it).

Lovely 1 night stay

Really lovely place to stay. Very friendly lady checked us in and showed us our room (street view but only stayed for 1 night, would probably do sea view if staying longer). Could still use terrace overlooking the beach, if you wanter. Room was very modern and well equipped, lovely comfortable bed.

Great Guesthouse but parking is not great…

Great for views across Carvoeiro beach, comfortable room with fridge, kettle & nespresso machine. Take care with parking though, we parked right outside on the road and our car was hit by a passing vehicle, we noticed other damaged vehicles during our stay, this made it an expensive visit!

I had a wonderful stay at the Castelo Guest House. the staff were lovely and very helpful. I was staying in the family room which had a small kitchen which was great. The veranda was amazing and views were stunning. You can have a breakfast basket delivered you your room which is lovely. The only thing which could be a downside, was my window opened the road which, If you are a light sleeper could be an issue if you want the window open. Many people walk and drive up the road. This was ok for me like listening to the sea when I sleep, which was lovely. Location is excellent and all the staff were welcoming.
