If you are a beach lover (perfect beach sunset) and visiting faro this would be my top recommend place to stay! However I would suggest calling the Guesthouse directly and booking through them rather than booking through Expedia!! The guesthouse staff went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed to make my stay just perfect, they were extremely polite and helpful, the place was VERY clean and comfortable and as a solo traveler I always felt safe here, also the food and drinks were absolutely delicious. Highly recommend this place!!!

We arrived too early for check-in but were accommodated with grace. All staff members were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Our room was small and adequate but having wine and charcuterie on the rooftop bar was outstanding!

The staff is most friendly and welcoming. Every question or request was met with a smile and patience, even the front desk staff she offered to walk with us to the bus stop for our tour pick up! The only thing so would say disappointing was the slow service on the rooftop. It has the best view and atmosphere and I hope they can be more attentive to customers. That’s why it was not busy as everyone went next door.

Cleanliness was disappointing… my AC unit blew air that smelled like mildew. Housekeeping fixed it a bit so it wasn’t as strong. I found bugs in my towels and around my bathroom, and upon leaving I saw two cockroaches in the hallway.

The staff at this hotel were friendly and helpful. This hotel is right on the beach so the views are top notch. Sunset view was a 10/10. The room we had was light and airy with a panoramic view of the ocean. There is an amazing rooftop terrace with a bar and restaurant AND a hot tub that overlooks everything - private to guests only. Only downfall was it is close to the Faro airport so you can hear planes during the day but it quiets down at night - just enough to hear the waves from your room! We stayed here our last night in Portugal and I couldn't be happier with this hotel.

Our room and all areas accesed were nice and clean and tidy. The staff here go over and above to help you with anything you may need, they are polite bright and nothing seems too much trouble. The rooftop bar and food area is lovley and has a great view. The beds are really comfortable and the bed linen of good quality with extra pillows and bedding if needed.

The fact that you will come to the hotel once again is the best motivation we could have and the best proof to know we are doing a good job. We hope to see you again in the near future.

Das Personal ist sehr jung, aber auch sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Das Zimmer war klein und eng, im Schrank hat es Kleiderbügel, aber keine Tablare. So blieb der Rest der Kleider im Koffer. Da ich es alleine benutzte und ja nur zum Schlafen da war, ging es. Eine dicke Person, hätte sich fast nicht auf die Toilette setzen können. Leider hat mir auch etwas gefehlt, um das feuchte Badezeug aufzuhängen. Das Zimmer wurde täglich tip top geputzt, sowieso die ganze Einrichtung. Das schönste war das Frühstücken mit Blick direkt aufs Meer. Man verlässt das Haus und ist direkt am Strand! Badetuch und Sonnenschirm bekommt man an der Rezeption, wenn man fragt. Der Strand ist sehr schön für Spaziergänge. Obrigada, consegui me recuperar bem!

Localização extraordinária, em cima da praia, staff muito simpático e profissional. Quarto muito limpo com bons atoalhados e boas almofadas e colchão. O pequeno almoço é muito bom e variado: fruta natural, ovos, bacon, pães com cereias entre outras iguarias. Recomendo vivamente e voltarei com certeza.
