    noise disturbance

    Finding the place is a challenge. signage is almost non-existent. Some areas show wear and tear, like stained stair carpets and loose bathroom tiles. Noise from the kitchen in the morning can disrupt sleep, especially for light sleepers.

    steep stairs

    Charming stay in Faro 🌊

    Lekker new place with super friendly staff who made us feel right at home! Our room had a stunning view of the river and the pool area was gorgeous, perfect for a dop after a long drive. Brekkie was well done, loved the brekkie boxes!

    Only downside was the stairs, felt like a bit of a mission with our bags.

    exceptional breakfast
    confusing signage
    poor housekeeping

    The breakfast was truly exceptional with a variety of options.

    Finding the guesthouse was quite confusing, as there was minimal signage directing guests to the property, contributing to a frustrating first impression. upon my arrival, I struggled to alert reception since there was no doorbell available, which led to an awkward situation where I had to call from outside. Lastly, housekeeping could improve their service. despite staying four nights, my room was not cleaned properly on several occasions and some toiletries were not replenished as expected.

    amazing breakfast
    stair access

    The breakfast was truly exceptional with a variety of options, including delicious pastries and fresh fruits, all for just 8 euros!

    Getting to the upper floors with heavy luggage was a bit tricky due to the stairs, which might be challenging for some guests.

    friendly staff

    Couple seeking relaxation

    We spent 9 nights here and it wasn't a let down. The staff. they were super friendly, always there when you needed them, and the breakfast? Man, that was outstanding! ! Tons of tasty options, and the almond cake? ? Just WOW! our room had a balcony overlooking the nature park which was simply unbelievable. waking up to that every day was a mood-lifter!

    It wasn’t the cheapest place we stayed at, but honestly, worth it!

    stunning view
    modern room
    tasty breakfast
    limited breakfast choice
    high pricing

    The stay was mainly for exploring the local area, especially the nearby Old Town Faro and its charming streets. My room was modern and offered a stunning view of the river, which was a perfect start to each day. The breakfast was a highlight, with a great selection that included tasty options and well-prepared dishes. The cleanliness of the facilities, particularly the sauna and hot tub, added to the overall experience, making it a straightforward choice to unwind during my stay.

    private jacuzzi
    spacious room

    will come back

    Loved the private jacuzzi and spacious room! Amazing breakfast, thoughtful complimentary drinks, and comfy beds. I enjoyed the powerful AC and the big flat-screen TV. The spa area looked inviting, and the helpful staff made it even better. Perfect spot with easy access to the city! Will definitely stay here again.

    private hot tub
    spacious room
    welcoming staff
    late arrival
    missed views

    I stayed in the King Suite with Spa Bath, and it was gorgeous! The private hot tub on the balcony offered fantastic views, but too bad we arrived late to enjoy it. The room was spacious and really modern. Breakfast to takeaway was a neat touch, which I loved. Staff were super welcoming, made it feel like a special place. Definitely coming back!
