Information & Amenities
Outdoor cafés, sea-view restaurants, a disco, and a tourist-information office ring Carvoeiro's plaza just outside the hotel's entrance. Streets packed with dining spots, clubs, and shops radiate from the plaza through the town. The plaza also serves as the resting place for the multi-colored boats fishermen use to take visitors on excursions along the coast to view caves and rock formations carved in cliffs by the ocean. A coin-operated kiosk in the lobby offers high-speed Internet access.

Directions from Faro Airport: Follow the road for about 2.5 kilometers until the fork in the road. Take the left-hand fork (towards Lisboa and Espanha) and this will take you onto the new flyover. Follow the signs for Portimão and you will merge onto a main road, which is the EN125. After approximately 4 kilometers, you will see a blue sign for the motorway (IP1). Keep heading towards Loulè and follow the blue signs onto the motorway, heading in the direction of Albufeira and Portimão, until you reach the end (approx. 37 km). Then take the Portimao exit onto a large roundabout and follow the sign to Portimão. Continue on to Lagoa (about 8 km) and you will pass Porches. Upon reaching the Lagoa junction, take the right lane and then turn left onto the road to Carvoeiro. After about 300 meters, you will find a fork; proceed straight (don't turn to your right) for roughly 5 kilometers. Once you arrive at the village main square you will find the Hotel Carvoeiro Sol on your left.
A taxi from the airport costs approximately 60-65 euros (US$75-$81, depending on the euro-dollar exchange rate). Car rentals are available online. The hotel provides no parking spaces. Guests with rental cars must find parking spaces in narrow streets, which can be a difficult task in the busy summer. Bicycles and scooters can be rented from the hotel.
