G44 Palm Gardens

Lounge/dining room with patio through window

Pestana Palm Gardens is a small, exclusive development set on the clifftop about 1 km outside the popular, bustling resort of Carvoeiro. The development consists of 80 two storey townhouses set in beautiful mature gardens that abound with palm trees, bougainvillea and well tended lawns. The houses were built about 19 years ago, but they have been completely refurbished within the past 3 years. There is a large communal swimming pool, which is heated in winter, a poolside bar and a restaurant. Other on-site amenities include a tennis court, table tennis, a small health club/gym and a reception office, with friendly helpful staff, that is open every day. There is direct access from the resort’s gardens on to the cliff top, which is a protected area that is home to many birds and is full of wild flowers in springtime.

Guest comments
'Well maintained, well managed resort with friendly helpful staff and excellent facilities, fantastic also for children, safe and with a superb pool. The situation just on the outskirts of the village and close to Centianes Beach and restaurants is very convenient.' - Mike from London, 09/06/2007.

'In a lovely location for those that want to experience the lovely town of Caroviero. The complex provides everything you could want, including fantastic (if cold) pool, sunbathing area, restaurant and helpful reception staff. The townhouse itself was gorgeous - lovely views over the pool on one aspect and to a quiet garden area with sea views from the lounge. The kitchen provided every possible utensil and facility to allow you to eat in every night if you chose, the beds and living areas were fantastically comfortable. All in all, a lovely site for my third holiday in the resort.' - Jackie from Tamworth, 02/11/2007.
