The villas at Carvoeiro Gardens have been purposefully designed to address the issues of year-round and especially winter living. Great care has been taken with the use of fully insulated foundations, positioning the floors a full half meter above ground level. The properties have a high standard of full thermal insulation, featuring underfloor heating and air conditioning. Space has been meticulously planned to avoid wasting energy, with generously proportioned open-plan living spaces and less space apportioned to bedrooms, hence reducing heating and cooling costs.
Since the dawn of tourism in the Algarve, the quaint fishing village of Praia do Carvoeiro has charmed visitors with its magnificent coastline, beaches and relaxed way of life.
Unlike many other coastal resort towns in Southern Europe, Carvoeiro has been developed sensitively, with no high-rise construction and respect for local architectural heritage.
Sports enthusiasts are spoiled for choice with numerous golf courses, a tennis centre and extensive water sports facilities all available in the local area. Amongst the most popular attractions are the rock formations and grottoes of the sandstone cliffs, such as the famous Benagil sea cave.
Local restaurants serving fresh grilled fish and seafood specialties, along with fine dining options and international restaurants for all tastes make Carvoeiro an excellent destination for lovers of good food.
