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!

Easy parking on the street around the property. We were there in November and I can imagine this could a lot tougher in the High season. Room was nice and big with amazing views and a great little patio to enjoy our coffee in the morning and a glass of wine before bed.

Staying at the O Castelo Guest House was the best! As soon as we walked into the room, overlooking the beach and cliffs, we decided to keep the car parked and relax and enjoy Carveiro, skipping the agenda to explore other towns on the Algarve coast. The location was perfect for taking the cave tour on a small boat, swimming, dining, and walking around the Algar Seco cliffs. The reception was welcoming, and the picnic basket breakfast was perfect for starting the day's adventure.

Excellent Beachfront Hotel with Helpful Staff

We recently stayed at a hotel in Carvoeiro and had a wonderful experience. The location of the hotel was perfect with stunning views of the beach. We were particularly impressed with Catia who was incredibly helpful and dedicated to her job. She gave us fantastic recommendations for things to do in the area, and made our stay that much more enjoyable. Overall, we highly recommend this hotel and will definitely book it again on our next visit to the Algarve.

Beautiful guesthouse and beautiful view

The guesthouse was beautiful and the sea view was amazing to chill out in. Would definitely stay again. Only 2 down points were someone knocking on our door saying check out time had passed (we still had nearly an hour left based on the check out time on our reservation email) and the hotel was unable to collect payment prior to check-in (it was a banking error but caused some stress trying to sort it out a few days before check in as we were traveling).

Excellent views and staff

Excellent location near the ocean and centro. Our room had a large balcony with great views. The workers were all very friendly. We had the hotel breakfast both days on the balcony and it was great as well. We would definitely recommend room 6 we stayed in and would stay again without hesitation. Parking was within steps of the entrance and we didn’t find driving there an issue at all.
