The Best Hotel in Carvoeiro, The Algarve

Perched high on a cliff overlooking the dramatic coastline, the freshly refurbished Tivoli Carvoeiro has striking modern architecture, stunning ocean views, and well-kept grounds dotted with lots of trees. Rooms are sleek and minimalist, all overlooking the sea or garden. Outside there's a sizeable ring-shaped pool, along with tennis and diving facilities. A steep stone stairwell leads down to a private beach that has amazing cave formations.
