The Rocha Brava Village Resort is situated on a magnificent clifftop, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, with a great range of facilities. Set within beautifully landscaped gardens, including artificial lakes and colourful trees, this low rise development provides a great base to explore the local area. The basic apartments and villas are each unique in design within the village-style complex. A warm atmosphere will help you relax and enjoy your time here. The selection of pools means you have the choice of a gentle daytime swim or a splash around with the kids. If you have a budding Wimbledon star in the family, the multiple tennis courts here are perfect for a friendly game. The laid-back Portuguese lifestyle is felt within the surrounding area but there is plenty of opportunities to explore the resort of Carvoeiro with a selection of delicious restaurants or take a boat trip to see the dramatic Algarve coast. There is plenty to see and do with a relaxing stay at the family-friendly Rocha Brava Village Resort.... More

Carvoeiro

Breathtaking scenery
The soft, sandy shore and clear, warm sea of Praia do Carvoeiro is tempting for lazy days. Numerous coves and beaches nearby are also well worth exploring to find secluded spots, weird and wonderful rock formations, sea arches and caves. Boat trips around the almost-lunar landscape are also a must.
Popular plots
Live music really gets the atmosphere going in the main square, under the stars and by the sea! Take a seat in a welcoming, family-run restaurant and savour traditional Portuguese dishes or enjoy a day trip to the historic town of Silves. Its castle is a striking structure and the area is peppered with ruins.

Clifftop location
500m from the nearest shop, bars and restaurants
850m from Vale de Milho Golf Course
1km from the beach
3km from Carvoeiro resort centre
Complimentary shuttle bus 3 times per day to Carvoeiro resort centre.
Approximate transfer time to resort 1 hour 45 minutes
The Vale de Milho Golf Course is great for families and beginners as it’s a scaled-down version of a full-sized course with only nine holes. The greens can still be challenging and the 11th hole is 161 metres....
Praia do Carvalho is one of the Algarve's best-kept secrets – and rightly so! It’s a magical sandy cove that’s more or less deserted all year round, so you won’t struggle to put down...
Algar Seco is a superb rock formation set in the waves. A wooden boardwalk links it to Carvoeiro centre which is great for wheelchair access and families with buggies. At sunset, the blowholes, arches and caves...
We loved our 7 night stay and was surprised at all the little perks we got. A shuttle bus into town, loved all the wonderful amentities, restaurants, wonderful walks, swimming pools, tennis courts etc... definite must. Will be back

Easter break
15 May 2024
Rocha Brava is in a fantastic location. The grounds and facilities and staff great. Whilst our apartment was a lovely size and lovely outdoor area looking into the gardens inside was in desperate need for a refurbishment. The bedrooms felt damp and the bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen was very old and tired. If the apartment was refurbished I would have already booked for next year as the resort itself was great.

Brilliant

We had a beauitiful twin bedroom villa with a balcony all mod cons and at the rear a small pool for refreshing yourself in the July hot temperature - the facilities on the site were second to none - we booked breakfast every day and it was substantial enough to set us up for the day ahead a mix of cooked and continental buffet - plenty of places on site for dinner or lunch and not that far from the wee town where by you can book a seat on a complimentary minibus to take you down and nice beaches below and easy to walk to some of them - not my first time here but was for my partner and he loved it also being in a villa meant we could go at our own pace

Stunning complex with beautiful views
13 Jul 2022
Stayed in a sea view 2 bed villa. The villa had everything we needed. Was comfortable, very clean and had a balcony and lawned area. The views from the balcony were simple breathtaking. Everyday we spent time on there soaking up the sun and enjoying the peace and quiet.
Complex is large, has 4 swimming pools (one indoor) a small pool bar area, cafe bar, shop and restaurant. There is also a large tennis complex and a gym however we did not use this.
Lovely location with coastal path walks accessible from the resort and the town was a short taxi journey away.
We went to splash and slide for the day which we would
recommend.
Some low key entertainment on some evenings, singers and guitar player. Some restaurants close by. Restaurant to the right of the resort entrance was very nice. As is the Indian restaurant to the left.
Would recommend and we would love to return

After reading mixed reviews I was a bit concerned. Need not have worried. The apartment was clean spacious well equipped and near the bottom quieter pool.it had 2 terraces and WiFi. Reception were helpful with booking trips etc. Lots of families that said they had been previous years which is a good sign. Beautiful maintained gardens

Absolutely wonderful
20 May 2019
Arrived for a two week break on the 4 May 2019 looking forward to a peaceful break. I was previously advised by jet2 that a new private villa was being constructed on site so I was very surprised to realise that we had been allocated our two bed apartment only a hundred yards away from works especially as I had e-mailed the hotel and requested a quiet location. Prior to unpacking I walked back to reception (no phones in the apartments) and asked if there was anything else available, they flatly said no! Four days into our holiday the crane, digger and trucks were in full force and we were covered in Orange dust.
I contacted jet2 and within minutes I was contacted and advised alternative accommodation would be provided. So we had to pack and up sickening was very annoying as this could have been completely avoided. The remainder of our holiday was in a sea view two bed villa. The Rocha Mar restaurant offers nice tasty food which is reasonably priced. Other local restaurants including the on site Rocha Brava restaurant were lovely too! We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and didn't want to go home, my sister and I may even return next year and hope that building works are not happening again. Reception staff are very friendly and even Mrs stern face on reception said goodbye to us (you'll know who I mean when you meat her! This resort would be quite boring for kids I think which is good news for us. If they could offer adult only areas (for accommodation) and offer just one adult only pool, the lower one with the sea view, would be fabulous. On many occasions adults were chilling out, reading their books and snoozing only for kids to arrive with inflatables and all shell would break loose. People would leave and others would be really annoyed as families totally ignored signage which advised no jumping or diving is permitted. All in all a lovely peaceful place but with a few tweaks would be perfect.

Great Holiday Break

Really nice relaxing holiday in a great venue with good weather. Good food locally and lots to do in the area. Friendly efficient staff at the venue and during our flight. Jet 2 staff very professional and willing to help.

Excellent apartment, beautiful gardens and lovely restaurants close by. If you are looking for night life, forget it. This place is lovely and peaceful. Plenty of walks, especially along the cliff tops where the views are magnificent.

Constant Dogs Barking
05 Dec 2017
A supposedly quiet holiday?!? Ruined by constant dogs barking which I recorded and disability issues which Jet2holidays promised to sort out but never replied after 2 promised callbacks. I am still waiting for Jet2holidays to get back to us after sending emails complaining about the dogs barking but nothing as yet.

This resort was in a perfect location for us away from it all. Rooms were clean and contained everything needed for a comfortable stay. Reception staff were warm and friendly and very thorough. Grounds are beautifully maintained and kept spotlessly clean. Supermarket on site was useful and held all the basics. Restaurant on site and some within walking distance. We will definately return to this resort as we had a wonderful stay.

Disgusting apartment
12 Sep 2017
Dirty apartment, cooker tripped the electric and we even had a flood in the apartment to list a few things!! It took a week for a rep to come and see us, not great customer service. We were offered a different apartment but it didn't have a bed for one of my children and was as dirty as the one we had. I would expect this from a two star but not a apparently 4 star. Sheets didn't fit the bed, the bathroom stunk of sewerage. It's a shame as the resort itself is pleasant enough. I have sent of the pictures and videos and have said jet2 will respond in 28 days!! What a joke

Very relaxing break
08 Jul 2016
This was by far the best place we have stayed in a long time. Very relaxing atmosphere, everyone very friendly, would go again. The reception staff could not be more helpful. We enjoyed the fact that the villa was among trees in garden area

This is the 3rd time I have returned to this resort and it just keeps getting better and better. Beautiful gardens, spotlessly clean pools add to that a Gym, Tennis and 1st class restuarants and you could not find a better place in this stunning area of the Algarve,

Fantastic Home from Home

Great accommodation well looked after and staff are extremely friendly and helpful. This is the third time we have been here and it will not be our last. Rocha Brava is well situated with lovely restaurants close by and while it is about a 30 min walk to the centre of the resort a taxi is only a few euro and there is also a courtesy service 3 times a day. Extremely good facilities and beautiful gardens.
