Tourist Tax

Lagoa Town Council, which includes Carvoeiro, has recently joined the growing list of councils that charge a tourist tax.  This tax, approved on 13 April 2024, aims to raise funds for the improvement of public equipment and services for tourists and residents in the region. 

The tourist tax came into effect on 1st May for all hotels, tourist resorts, and local accommodation establishments within the Lagoa district, which includes Carvoeiro. 

The tourist tax charge is 2 Euros per night during the high season (April to October) and 1 Euro during the rest of the year (November to March) per person, up to a maximum of 7 consecutive nights for all tourists aged 13 or older. There are exemptions for people with disabilities (although certain criteria apply).

We have registered on the Lagoa Portal and all booking fees will have tourst tax added
