The kitchen could use some more equipment. In the living room was an extra bed - for us a cosy couch would have been nicer. But there's nothing really to complain. Thank you!

We loved our stay at Casa Flor de Sal. Laurent and his wife were thoughtful, helpful and the loveliest hosts you could hope for. The little houses and the facilities are clean and offer everything to make you feel comfortable. Modern bathroom, comfy bed, two terraces, air condition, dish washer...we loved our house. Laurent made good suggestions for activities each day, there was a wonderful and professional yoga class one morning by the pool for free and he checked in with us daily - on a very nice and natural easy way. Breakfast wishes/orders, cleaning wishes and honesty shop is managed with an app. The shop offered high quality local goods to fair prices. There are bikes, two pools, billard and nearby are the salines for walks. By car it's 30 min to Faro, 30 min to Tavira. We spent our wedding anniversary there and had a lovely family holiday with our baby at Casa Flor de Sal and we will come back. Next time with the whole family.

What a beautiful one of a kind respite in the Algarve. We couldn’t have stayed in a more beautiful, serene natural setting. Laurant was so kind and available to us helping with all questions and needs.

Casa Flor de Sal is quite simply an amazing place to stay. The only worry we had here was that our next stop - unfortunately they were fully booked out for the 2nd week of our vacation - would face the very tall order of not feeling like a downgrade in comparison. Laurent and Alexia are lovely people, very approachable and always just a quick WhatsApp message away, providing great tips for beaches or activities nearby. They also run a group chat with all the guests, where they announce some planned activities like boat tours or dolphin watching trips, for those interested to join. We gladly joined the one communal dinner per week to mingle more with some other guests, which were also lovely. Nothing feels forced, it’s all very laid-back and uncomplicated. The guest houses are clean and cozy and nicely furnished for self-catering needs. A quick trip to a supermarket nearby is advised on arrival, but you’ll also find some basics in the self-service store on property, which is open around the clock. There’s also a washer & dryer which they let you use for free. We certainly didn’t miss anything during our stay. The property itself is quiet and serene and surrounded by a lush garden with pomegranates and figs ripe for the picking. A stork family is welcoming the guests, or bidding them farewell, from atop their nest towering over the entrance. There’s two pools and a natural swimming pond if you care to swim among real goldfish for a change. Venturing out from the property, the beautiful, almost alien in parts, landscape of the Ria Formosa national park lies within walking distance. Many restaurants and beaches are within driving distance of 30min or less. So many, in fact, that I feel we could‘ve easily stayed a few weeks more w/o ever getting bored. In closing, Casa Flor the Sal is a place we already missed the moment we had to leave. It comes with our highest recommendation. Thank you Laurent, Alexia and team for a great week of relaxation.

nothing

wonderful having breakfast delivered to our door every morning. the oranges were delicious and we drank freshly squeezed orange juice everyday.the housekeeping was excellent too you could choose each day to have a lot, a little, or none at all. they even cleaned the bbq each house has a private garden and a roof terrace with table chairs and sun loungers. we drank our coffee there each morning looking at the beautiful view over the ria formosa and the sea. laurent and alexia couldn't do enough to make our stay enjoyable. while not intruding they were there when needed the grounds are extensive with lots of play areas for children plus 2 swimming pools,one for adults only. this is a place we would definely recommend

All was perfect!

everything about this stay was perfect: attention to details, kindness of the owners, best kids place I have ever stayed in. A real « home away from home”. The pool has a shallow end for kids, the mère is a football/basketball field on the grounds, pools table, swing, sand pit.. A small shop is located on the hotel’s premises for your urgent shopping. The construction site doesn’t bother at all. We are already dreaming of coming back next year!

worth taking some mosquito spray, it’s not a big problem but it’s next to wetlands so naturally it has a few around.

From start to finish we had a great time here. We had a lovely warm welcome from August who made us feel at home straight away. We have two young children and it was perfect, they absolutely loved the pool, but also the other facilities including the trampoline, table football, swings. It’s also has loads of wildlife, we saw a staple regularly, but also bats in the evening, occasional small lizard and loads of interesting birds varieties. We also borrowed the bikes which were free, our six year old daughter on a child’s bike and our two year old on the baby seat. Half an hours bike ride through the wetlands to the local beach. The self catering facilities where also good, with an outdoor bbq also provided. But what makes this place great is the attention to details, a fridge with all the necessities for your arrival, a local ‘shop’ and ‘bar’ with basics available, based on an honour system. Fresh bread and organs juice delivered to your door each morning, a baby towel given to us for the little one. Beach umbrellas available to borrow. Well thought out and a fantastic stay. Highly recommend. Thank you

absolutely nothing to dislike.

It is an oasis of tranquility and natural beauty. The facilities are outstanding for both adults but also for young children. There is so much space for everyone to enjoy. our house Flamingo) had everything we could possibly need. It was very spacious with a well appointed kitchen, excellent bathroom, outside eating area with outdoor sink and barbecue and finally a roof terrace. Home grown tomatoes, peppers, lemons and strawberries for you to pick. we were too early for the figs and pomegranates! August our host was always where when you needed something and super hospitable. Location wise you are near Olhão (lots of shops and a medical centre), the lovely town of Tavira and a short drive from Faro airport.

Maybe a lounger on our patio ! Nothing else

Liked it all. Management was superb, so friendly and helpful, we felt very at home. A fantastic place all round from the garden design to the comfort and cleanliness of the accommodation. Couldn't fault it.

The TV channels were all in English and/or German. That may be a "problem" if you have young children. The pools are not huge, but I guess it all depends on whether you are expecting a place to cool down or to train your swimming skills.

The property is located in wonderful place: one can actually seat on the rooftop of the house and enjoy a wonderful view over Ria Formosa. The rooms are comfortable and all the necessary and expected amenities are available. Although breakfast is "not served" - due to COVID - we were provided every morning with a delicious orange juice and fresh bread. Jam, ham, cheese, yogurts, milk, eggs were all made available. Unless you're not willing to make some scramble eggs or boiled an egg, there's no reason why one should not be very satisfied with breakfast. Overall, I must say that I find the place to be marvellous, very close to Fuzeta and Olhão and to the wonderful beaches of the Ria Formosa's islands.

I can't recommend this place enough!! It was absolutely wonderful. They were the most welcoming and helpful people and the accommodation was exceptional! We had our 14month daughter with us and they fully catered for her every need as well as ours. It's the perfect balance for families. The breastfast provisions were plentiful and they checked in every day to see if we needed or wanted something different! There are plenty of toys on site in tasteful baskets that compliment the beautiful surroundings. The site itself is stunning and peaceful with beautiful views from your own roof terrace and overlooking the pool. We had the most wonderful week and can't thank Auguste, Caroline and Margarette enough!! We will definitely come back!
