TransfersCarvoeira Holidays
There’s nothing quite like booking a holiday to cheer yourself up on a winter’s day. And there’s nothing quite like holidaying amongst the rich and famous to make you feel a million dollars. Carvoeiro was once a quiet fishing village, described by visitors as almost medieval. That was before the tourists started arriving and before long the sleepy village had become a thriving resort full of holiday homes of the rich and famous.
