Amazing Week at the Villa!
We just returned home for our amazing week at Villa Tara and couldn't be happier with our stay! We were a large group of 11 people (6 adults and 5 children) and the space was perfect for us. We all had space for sleeping and lots of outdoor spaces to relax. The pool was also a great benefit and we all enjoyed our time there to cool off. Marie was a wonderful support by providing us with lots of great restaurant recommendations which were nice and close to walk to/from or taxi back for 5 euro. We also loved an uber ride to Club Nau for a fun night out. A few beaches were also a close walk (A bit of a hill on the way back but still very manageable for our group) and others were an easy car ride away. Marie was also quick to answer any questions that we had and connected midway during our stay to see if she could help in any other ways. The pool and villa cleaners both popped in midweek and that we great to have clean towels, a pool check, etc. Our whole experience was wonderful at Villa Tara!

Marie the owner was so helpful and quick to respond to any queries, all in all a great experience would definitely consider going back.

Happy Times!
We really loved our time at the Villa. So many amazing outdoor seating areas, the weather was so good we never ate inside. Would definitely stay there again and recommend to others. My only suggestion would be to update the bedding. The bedding all felt a bit tired. Other than that great!!! Our host was amazing!! Thank you for everything!

Great Villa
This is a traditional lovely villa situated in a nice area in Carvoeiro, in a large private plot with great outdoor areas & pool. You are a 10 mins walk downhill into town and a taxi back at night is 5 euros. We were a group of 10 adults and plenty of space for us all. You can walk to small & large supermarkets and get a taxi back if you don't have a car. Overall a great time was had by all and we would return again. Communication was great and check-in & check-out very easy.

Great holiday!
The property was perfect for the 13 of us. Plenty of space and lots of outside seating. We could walk to two different beaches within 20 mins. The owner was very helpful as we had, had to change the booking due to covid. I would highly recommend this place!

Great family holiday
Our party of ten, including 4 children aged from 7 to 10 years old, had a very enjoyable holiday in this lovely spacious villa. The girls loved the heated swimming pool and the grandparents made the most of the various sheltered outdoor seating areas. As it was October it was a bit chilly in the evenings which meant we couldn’t make the most of the very attractive outside area for alfresco evening meals, although we did manage to have one early evening barbecue. The underfloor heating in the living areas was very welcome as was the smart TV! The management company who looked after the Villa were very attentive and approachable. The pool man was also very efficient and dealt quickly with a malfunctioning pool pump caused by a heavy rain shower. Despite having some inclement weather we all agreed we’d had a great stay at Casa de Tara.

Breath taking views
This was my 70th birthday with kids and grandkids. Kids ages 7-10-14-16. The pool was our main room! Kids swam before and after any other activities and it was all their favorite. Different beaches every day... Local restaurants all wonderful. Villa itself handled 9 people easily, cooking facilities excellent. And the views!!!!! This place is a jewel!

Wonderful holiday
We had a brilliant stay in the first week of June. Family of 5, although the villa could have easily taken a much bigger group. We were attracted to the villa because of the location and heated pool, which was a big plus due to travelling with a two and five year old, neither of whom like to swim in cooler water. The pool is a very good size, well maintained, very clean and was lovely and warm (at a guess about 29/30oc). Both boys were happy to spend hours in there and had to be encouraged out. The villa was very clean. We found the villa to be spacious with well positioned seating areas to both sides outside. The villa is well located between both Centianes beach and Carvoeiro. We had a great boat trip from Centianes, the organisers were great with the kids and it kept them happily entertained for an hour exploring the sea caves. The nearby water park was also a hit. We loved the walk along Algar Seco. Boneca Bar and Mar d’Fora and the beach bar at Centianes we’re food hits and good for seafood lovers. Boneca Bar has a lovely cave tunnel by the sea, which the kids loved exploring with their torches. The supermarkets were a short drive away. We found the walk to Algar Seco area to be about 15 mins and then a bit further on to either beach, so for beach trips due to young children with us preferred to drive but parking was easy. The grounds around the villa and location made for a peaceful week and mean you don’t feel overlooked. Marie kindly arranged for buggies at the villa and this was a big help for tired little legs. The communication both before and during holiday has been faultless, which made the organisational side very easy. We would love to return one day. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Wonderful, memorable trip
We just came home from the most wonderful stay at Casa de Tara. We were a group of 4 couples, friends that have travelled together every 2 years, and we must say that this was our best trip. To start, Marie was an absolute pleasure to deal with. She responded quickly, offering information and sharing things to do in Carvoeiro. She is a great expert in knowing what is going on in her town, and it's always interesting to get recommendations from a local! The villa itself was beautiful. The pictures really don't do justice to how lovely and spacious it really is. And the views! Especially from the upstairs balcony. We spent several nights sipping port and watching the sunset. From that balcony you can see the town, the sea and the Monchique mountains. The bedrooms were great for a large group - 2 queen size ensuite rooms, 1 ensuite room with a double and a single, 1 queen size room with a bathroom right beside it, and then another room with 3 single beds. All were comfortable and gave each of us our privacy. The outside eating area was really convenient right off the kitchen, and we barbequed many nights. We had fantastic weather so were able to lounge around the pool and sunbathe every day. Also wonderful was having a frig and washroom out by the pool. We hardly ever wanted to leave. The town however is really lovely, and it's about a 10/20 minute walk depending on the route you take. One is a gentler slope but takes a little longer - the other is much steeper in areas but is quicker. There are several small supermarkets to pick up your daily supplies of water, beer, wine, veggies, snacks etc and a great butcher who was open every day until one, where we would go to buy our BBQ items. Also within easy walk were some fabulous restaurants for the few evenings that we went out. We found we didn't need a car at all and we were there for 10 days. All in all, this was a fabulous villa, location, town, trip - everything! We would all go back here is a second!
