Casa Carina is situated in a small village called Vale del Rei, where you will find a convenience store, snack bar and a couple of restaurants, all within easy walking distance, or drive into the main town of Carvoeiro where you will find numerous restaurants and bars to suit all tastes. (There is an English taxi-drivers number in the villa, if you prefer not to drive).

The supermarket, Carvoeiro town and 4 fantastic beaches are all within 5 minutes drive from the villa.

For teenagers or the young at heart wanting some night-life, there are plenty of clubs in Albufeira and Praia da Rocha, only 30 minutes drive away.

Carvoeiro is approximately 38 miles West of Faro Airport, and is easily reached via the A22 Motorway, in about 40 minutes. If you prefer, the N125 is a slower route but more interesting and this way takes about 1 hour.
