We've only popped into Carvoeiro so I'm no expert on the resort but it did look quite steep in places to us. We stayed long enough for some lunch near the beach and there was definite 'drain whiff' but that may just have been a one off.

There are some resort reports for Carvoeiro here:- http://www.holidaytruths.co.uk/reviews/portugal/algarve/carvoiero/

Carvoeiro beach is in the town but is very small. Alvor beach is about 15 minutes walk from the the village but is vast asyou know.

Here's a link to a picture I took from high above the beach in May 2008

Early In June, well I think Carvoeiro (like the Algarve as a whole) will be far from packed out and busy. But, as Glynis says, Carvoeiro and its beach are at the bottom of a fairly steeply sided valley, so there is s good chance your accommodation would be up on top on one side or the other. That would keep you fit, pushing said two year old around!

:D :D I think the pitch at Carvoeiro would have a slope to put that at Yeovil's old ground to shame.
