Homely, clean & excellent location

As we drove in I became nervous due to the area (first time in Faro and it was dark) but was quickly relieved and felt safe and at home when greeted by the manager who helped us carry all our luggage in and get us settled. It had a fantastic homely feel to it, our rooms were cleaned daily and the location is brilliant I came to learn! The owners are also very kind people which reflects on their business. We also stayed with our dog who was very welcome. Thank you for the lovely hospitality!

An ok stay, but a few changes required.

Nicely decorated, large room with balcony. The beds are a bit uncomfortable. They are very hard and there is no choice of pillow. These were also very hard and thick. Also, there wasn’t a choice at breakfast. You are basically given fruit, meats, cheeses and bread. It is all presented very nicely, but you don’t have any options.

Very friendly staff and a convenient location. Stayed for three nights and found the accommodations very comfortable. I would encourage the owners/operators to introduce themselves. They were nice, but having names would make it feel even more like a guest house.

Lovely team running it. Amazing location - 10 minute uber from the airport and a 5 minute walk into Faro centre - which is great. The place itself was clearly once very nice, but requires refurbishing and basic maintenance. That said, it looks like the current owners are doing that, and I felt it will return to a higher standard. I would return, and would recommend on its location and service, just making aware it is by no means perfect right now, but hope it will be again soon.

Not luxury spa as advertised and other problems

The late access was satisfactory, as a staff member was helpful. However, after that, the air conditioning malfunctioned due to depleted battery power, which could be replaced. Upon waking in the morning, we discovered that our balcony was littered with items of storage, and a plate glass was dangerously leaning across the front. Furthermore, we were unable to make coffee using coffee capsules, there was no soap in the hand basin dispenser, and the toilet seat was broken. Additionally, there was mould around the shower. The so-called spa pool was green, and the jacuzzi was covered. There was no staff present. We decided to leave the hotel, leaving our keys behind. As we exited, a dog greeted us at the door, barking and growling. When the dog ran towards us, we made an exit through a different door, the only staff members was cleaners. This establishment did not meet the standards of a luxury spa. Despite our attempts to give them a chance to rectify the situation, they chose not to contact us.

Hopeless communication and no refund

We did not receive communication from the hotel until after the date of our stay had passed. We had nowhere to stay in Faro when we couldn’t gain access to the property and had to pay for taxis to and from the airport and then source alternate accommodation in Vilamoura at an additional cost. Hotels.com have been no help either.

Horrible, paid but no one open the door

Even I paid for the hotel, no one opened the door. We have to find another place to stay for the night. I CONTACTED CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY SAID NOT REFUNDABLE. It is unacceptable!! The door was locked and we knocked a lot of times. Leaving us stranded even we had paid for the hotel which is disrespectful.

Location of guest house is quite close to the Train station and also downtown/Old Town. Within walking distance of all that you want to visit. Shower in our room was quite tight and the shower door was hard to close. The bed was two twins pushed together and the mattress was very hard. Breakfast was minimal/continental, no buffet. The bread served was stale. Probably will not stay here again.
