Liked · My cousin and I came on a winter break and we could not have chosen better. Marta contacted us before we even arrived with check in details and access instructions as we were arriving late. However despute lateness Helder met us there and showed us our apartment. The apartment is gorgeous, absolutely spotless with great thought given to what you might need. Aside from the usual kitchen utensils there were containers in case you wanted a picnic, there were umbrellas, beach towels and beach umbrellas. There were also fluffy robes and slippers, gorgeous bathroom products,(shower gel, shampoo, conditioner), plus vanity kits, toothbrushes, and sewing kits. The bathroom was well lit and the shower, large, and good pressure. The bed, well what can I say, it is without doubt the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in, add the high thread count sheets for a five star experience. We had a lovely little balcony which was perfect for morning coffee and evening wine. A bottle of which had been left in the fridge. There is also a lovely roof terrace hidden from view but with lovely views across the rooftops. We had a couple of questions such as getting the TV to work and what pods the coffee machine took as we wanted to buy more, these were answered via WhatsApp promptly and in such a friendly way, each time with a recommendation of things to do or places to eat. Overall this really was a five star experience and, as I like Faro for a winter break I feel I have really found a home away from home. Actually that's not true, Solar Mendonca is better 🙂

The whole feel of the place, and it's huge. I didn't realize the spa center was part of the price, two jacuzzi, one sauna and a steam room (the stream room ceiling tiles were partially hanging off that was quite worrying,but fab besides this) staff he was fantastic, very helpful and accommodating, breakfast was plentiful and pretty good, I asked if they had bananas as they put oranges out and he got me one, just can't fault it, the pool is open 24 hours but not heated BUT HUGE , lovely stay

Faro is such a lovely city.

Faro is such a lovely city. We had only one night there I really wish we could have stayed longer. Great shops, restaurants, really nice buzz around. There is so much to see and do. The bones church for example, the cathedral and beautiful. I highly recommend if you are flying into Faro spend a full day in Faro.

I really enjoyed the architecture and the layout of the town everywhere was in walking distance...there was live music in the square at the weekends and craft stalls... We found lots of nice restaurants off the centre of town . Despite the volume of people I felt very safe walking the streets. getting a boat over to the beach was fun

This was my first time at a three-star hotel and I was very disappointed. If this is the case with all hotels, it's better to rent an apartment. We booked a hotel with breakfast for four nights. Breakfast was the same every day, without changing. We tried to have lunch. We paid 36 euros for two—not expensive, but the food was terrible. It's better to pay a little more and go to a restaurant or cafe; fortunately, there are plenty of them here. The doors to the balcony were very difficult to close, you had to apply a lot of force It's clear that they're saving on everything.

Loulé is a lovely traditional city, plenty to do & see.

Loulé is a lovely traditional city, plenty to do & see. Lots of bars & restaurants at very cheap prices. Market day is Saturday when the city becomes extremely busy. There is the traditional indoor market which is open most days. Has fish, fruit & veg stalls and some other nicknack stalls. Has an area in the middle for food & drinks and lots of smaller shops around the side. Main street market is the fruit & veg market and then the gypsy market is a little further out. Castle worth a visit just over €3 for 2 people. Loulé easy transfer from the airport €15 euro in uber. Easily accessible to beach, Quarteira, Vilamoura both around €8 in an uber, we walked one way around 7.5 miles.

It’s just a lovely town, it’s not too big and you can walk your way around it, The train station is only a 15-20 minute walk to the apartments and hotels. The beach is something special, reached by a small motorboat or you can used the beach at one end which is just by the hotels or the pebble beach at the other up towards the fort. There is a long wooded board-walk which takes you from the smaller beach to the pebble beach depending on your Preferences and there are plenty of benches as you walk along. There are every kind of restaurant you can possibly want, plenty of shops and supermarkets to keep you busy. It’s easy to fly in and use the train to get there or you can drive there depending on your preferences. The Fort, once you see it you will want to stay. The fish and steak restaurants were our choice but there are Indian, Irish, and local dishes as well.

The central square and church is where most things are happening, there are plenty of benches to sit on and watch the evening unfold and plenty of very nice shops to browse in the evening. The town is bigger than you think and has 5 biggish supermarkets. The marina is the best place to see the sun go down but the white sand beach is lovely.
