NEW FOR 2026


Set up high for the views, yet just a 10-minute walk down to the centre of Carvoeiro, Casa Eleanora is a lovely, family-friendly villa with lots of space and high levels of comfort making for a really easy, relaxing stay. The interiors are elegantly contemporary and very practical for a larger party, with a sleek new kitchen and a superb sun room.

NEW FOR 2026


Set up high for the views, yet just a 10-minute walk down to the centre of Carvoeiro, Casa Eleanora is a lovely, family-friendly villa with lots of space and high levels of comfort making for a really easy, relaxing stay. The interiors are elegantly contemporary and very practical for a larger party, with a sleek new kitchen and a superb sun room.

The layout is a little different to the Algarve villa norm, with a gallery overlooking the lounge making the villa feel extra light and spacious. There’s a glass-fronted sun room that runs the whole length of the house, creating a lovely spot to sit in quiet of early morning, or late season days when the sun takes a little longer to climb high in the sky. The walled pool terrace is also a wonderful sun trap, and pool can be heated for those spring or autumn months should you wish.

With several distinct living and dining areas both inside and out, Casa Eleanora is a great choice for a group or two families, with kids and adults (or perhaps the guys and the girls) able to find their own space to chat, play a game or enjoy a glass or two of excellent Portuguese wine. Teens and independent kids can also easily make their own way down into Carvoeiro, where there are restaurants, cafés and shops aplenty, and if older legs don’t fancy the walk back up, taxis from the town square are plentiful and reasonably priced – no judgment!

Algarve holidays promise a wealth of different experiences and landscapes, whether you choose a private villa or a hotel as your base.

Portugal’s most southerly region boasts an iconic and instantly recognisable coastline of fine sandy beaches backed by ochre-yellow cliffs, sea stacks and rock archways that stand testament to the power of nature. Inland, there are rolling hills dotted with citrus and olive groves, plus crumbling castles, mountain villages and walking paths to explore. The Algarve is unique in enjoying an Atlantic coast with a Mediterranean climate, attracting not just holidaymakers but also a wide variety of birdlife that flocks to the Ria Formosa Natural Park.

And despite its long term popularity as a villa holiday destination, the Algarve has retained pockets of real character in its old towns and regional capital Faro, where you can still eat well relatively inexpensively. Portuguese cuisine is in our view one of the most underrated in Europe, so prepare to be deliciously surprised by fresh fish, hearty stews, sweet pastries and of course, world-renowned wines: saúde!

Customer testimonials

Our stay in the villa was everything we hoped for - comfy, enjoyable and exactly as detailed. Would book it again.

Mrs Levy, via Affinity Villas July 2025

Wow, what a fabulous villa! The grounds are beautiful, lots of space and different seating areas. The pool is a great size, we had it heated and made full use of it every day. Inside the villa there is lots of space and again, a few sitting areas if you want some quiet and a huge covered balcony for in the evenings or if the weather is poor. The villa is well equipped, there's nothing that has not been thought of and the welcome hamper is a great idea as you don't have to go shopping immediately on arrival. We (4 adults and two children aged 6 and 8) thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Mrs Colquhoun , via Affinity Villas October 2024

Exactly as described. Home from home. Lots of space for everyone.

Mrs Mckenna, via Affinity Villas May 2024

The villa is excellent and very comfortable, the outside space and pool are superb!

Mr Selby, via Affinity Villas September 2023

Very spacious and well equipped villa. Modern kitchen and excellent outdoor seating areas and a great pool. Good location with Carvoeiro town / beach a short walk away.

Mr Codd, via Affinity Villas July 2023

A beautiful and extremely well-equipped villa in an excellent location. Very spacious for larger parties. Lovely pool area and gardens. Easy walking distance into town therefore car hire not necessary, although rather steep on your return. Fully recommend Casa Eleanora.

Holton/Kershaw party, via Affinity Villas June 2023

Lovely villa in a very good location, walk home is up a steep hill but plenty of taxis and Ubers readily available - facilities are great and we have always had a lovely family holiday here.

Mrs Brett, via Affinity Villas June 2023

Casa Eleanora is a home from home experience. Plenty of inside and outside space so even at full capacity we didn't feel crowded.

Mrs Barber, via Affinity Villas May 2023

Villa is stunning. Everything you could possibly need is included. The welcome hamper was excellent. Highly recommended.

Mrs Hegan, via Affinity Villas May 2023

The villa met all our expectations and the beautiful terraces around the house were used every day. Ideal place for 6-8 persons, great swimming pool and the villa is located at a 10-15 mins. walk from the city centre.

Mr Jonker, via Affinity Villas April 2023

Very spacious and comfortable furnishings, lots of different areas to sit. Town not far, good choice of restaurants and bars, great boardwalk too.

Mr Englefield, via Affinity Villas October 2022

We were 11 people, including 3 children aged 1,2 and 3 and the villa was perfect for a large family group.

Mr Platt, via Affinity Villas September 2022

Beautiful villa in a fantastic resort. The outdoor space and pool were outstanding.

Mrs Carey, via Affinity Villas August 2022

Casa Eleonora was fantastic, good living space inside and outside and good location to walk to the town if you can manage the walk back up the hill!

Mr Davies, via Affinity Villas October 2021

Beautiful villa. 10-minute walk into town down quite a steep track so the journey home is great to work off the excess dinner. Extremely comfortable villa, home from home.

Mrs Lewis, via Affinity Villas August 2021
