NEW FOR 2026
Tucked away in a peaceful corner of the much-loved Vale do Milho estate, this traditional Algarve-style villa is typical of our Simply Simpson range. It’s a wonderful choice for families seeking space and comfort close to all the many charms of Carvoeiro, including Centeanes beach, a 15- to 20-minute walk away.
With sweeping sea views from the roof and pool terrace, this is a villa designed for easy days enjoying the Algarve sunshine, and if you choose to visit in the early or late season, there’s a walled terrace to shelter you from sea breezes, plus the option of pool heating so you can enjoy the water for much longer. Inside, the house is practically furnished, with air-conditioning in all bedrooms and well equipped for a family holiday. If the kids love a barbecue then this is a top choice, supplied with two separate grill options for stress-free family meals, and a private inner courtyard off the dining room.
Carvoeiro is one of our favourite resorts on the Algarve, retaining a pleasing level of village charm alongside its many shops and restaurants – you can drive here in under 10 minutes, or Ubers are plentiful if you’d rather have a glass or two of fine Portuguese wine with your meal. Closer yet you’ll find a handful of local restaurants and the gentle greens of Vale do Milho’s beginner-friendly nine-hole course within walking distance, and you can walk to the golden sands of Centeanes beach in about 15 to 20 minutes.

There’s been a village and evidence of fishing since Roman times at Carvoeiro, plus a rich history of naval battles and pirate attacks as raiders sought to claim this privileged location for themselves. Whilst there are still a handful of colourful fishing boats moored up on the honey-coloured sand, today the majority of the small craft that potter along the coast are taking visitors to admire the golden cliffs, caves and neighbouring beaches that make Carvoeiro such a desirable place for a villa holiday.
