Algar Seco Parque is a quiet, small private resort directly above the spectacular cliffs of Algar Seco within walking distance to the village with its numerous shops and restaurants and to the fine sandy village beach. The apartments and bungalows are generously laid out and equipped with works of Portuguese craftmanship: hand worked furniture from the north, hand painted tiles, precious hand woven carpets. All apartments and bungalows open to the sea and offer an unspoilt view over the ocean.

What a special place
We stumbled onto Agar Seco whilst walking the beautiful boardwalk in Carvoeiro, where we had been referred to a doctor for an ear infection. Serendipity! Cgarmed by the setting, the view, and the peacefulness of the place, we immediately went to check on availability. Only one apartment was available the following week. We immediately changed our plans and have now spent 2 perfect weeks in this s pool special little pocket of the Algarve. Each apartment is unique. The two we have stayed in are both special in different ways. Nothing is more special than sitting on one of their balconies and watching the sun go down, the moon come up and the stars poo out. It is a little village in itself, so there are the inherent noises from neighbour's, housekeeper's chattering, and gardeners keeping the flowers blooming. Wish we had discovered it sooner, as it would have been our "go to" place for winter. Summers will be hot and more crowded. Staff are all charming, helpful, and have that special Pirtugese humour and kindness that the Spanish lack. Great restaurants a block away. Caves, hiking, water sports all available. On site bistro and swimming pools. Perfect.…

Amazing vacation again!
Algar Seco Parque has been our winter destination for 7 years in a row. The staff from the office to housekeeping to the gardners are so friendly and accommodating. Our apartment is comfortable, very clean and when you look out at the ocean from your balcony it is a truly stunning view. The Bistro has fabulous food and the staff are also very friendly. Great walk into town along the boardwalk. We have already booked for year 8!

Bistro Bar
We paid a visit to this bistro. Nice interior and friendly service. Terrace at the border of the swimming pool. The bistro forms part a larger holiday park consisting of various two-storeyed buildings. It all looks very attractive.

Very Average
The location is amazing and you can spend hours gazing out on unspoilt views of the sea and coast line. Also it is a easy walk into the town via the board walk. Good staff who try hard but some are slightly officious at times. Now for the cons The accommodation is very basic and ours smelt musty - like sleeping in an ancient church Ants and mosquitoes are a real problem in the accommodation The furniture and decor is very old There is very little for young children to do, the pools are deep and there is no Life guard All in all the place is ok but far from its 5 star review rating

Response from AlgarSecoParque, General Manager at Algar Seco Parque

Dear MAT, I am very sorry to learn that your experience at Algar Seco Parque was not exceptional. I also regret that you did not let us know about your concerns during your stay so that we could have made your holiday more comfortable. The furniture, decorations and architecture are consciously kept in traditional Portuguese style, distinguishing Algar Seco Parque from other resorts. But I fully understand that this of course does not suit everyone’s taste. At this time of year one of our larger pool is heated, but I agree that it should only be used by capable swimmers. We do not have entertainment or children’s activities at Algar Seco Parque, I am sorry if this is something you believed we offered. I do hope that you had the opportunity to explore the Algarve – the coastline is certainly spectacular – and rest and relax a little on your terrace, enjoying the views. With sunny regards from Carvoeiro, Marion Louca and the Algar Seco Parque Team

Amazing Place
Stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment. Very comfortable with everything you could possibly need. The resort is very well laid out with beautiful buildings and gardens. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. The most important thing to me was the peace and quiet and of course the stunning views over the sea. Will hopefully visit again next year.

Hi Do you have to get up extra early to get sunbeds in july/august?
Hello DawnM08. We hope that you do not have to get up early to get sunbeds, you deserve a good rest during your holidays. The pool opens at 10am and there are plenty of beds at the pool area. We kindly ask our guests not to reserve sunbeds, and towels left unattended will be removed by the staff. Should there be an issue we would appreciate that you speak to the team at the Bistro or Reception. Thank you.

We'll probably go for a studio as there are only 2 of us. Do all the studios have a sea view and are there some that get more sun than others. Being January we would like one that gets the most sun on the balcony as possible!
Hello, we do have two studios and both have sea views. It would be best to contact us by email with dates and length of stay, so we can check availability for next year. Thank you.
