    Laura and Ricardo are excellent and very helpful hosts. Their cozy house is beautiful and clean, all the charms of an old house but with a modern touch and facilities you need. A lot eye for detail just as can been seen in the pictures. Very well located just minutes from the city center but in a quiet area. A good supermarket and nice restaurants are just around the corner. We loved the spacious and sunny terrace and outside shower as well. All amenities you need are available in the kitchen and bathroom which is great. When you are a bit familiar in Faro you can find free parking spots nearby. We love to go back here next time.

    A little small, though fine for a 2 day stay.

    Nice little house near the old town of Faro. Well equipped clean and tidy. Good facilities, excellent internet. Nice solarium on the roof. Easy walking to local eateries and the old town. Helpful staff.

    the bed in the living room is not confortable, and there is no curtain, so too much light during the night. a bit noisy too, because of the old door.

    very nice appartment. And perfect communication. Very clean. Everything was perfect.

    Feel-like-a-local stay in the cutest house in Faro

    • Couple

    The only thing I could recommend is to have a different kitchen towel, as the one that was in the kitchen is more appropriate for bathroom in my opinion:) And thats it!

    Faro was the last destination during our Portugal trip and this is where we had the best apartment experience. I was super excited when booking this house for our stay because we were looking for something more authentic and not IKEA flat. And when i found this house, i knew this would be the perfect way to finish our Portugal trip - and it was indeed! The hosts are very easy to communicate with - fast with responding, you can really feel from their messages that they put a lot of effort to maintain the house and that they care about it - i really appreciated this:) The house itself is amazing - its petite but definitely enough space for a family with a kid or a small group of friends to stay (we were just two of us though and we felt super comfortable there in terms of space). Its very well decorated and you can see the personal touch almost everywhere in the house. The kitchen had everything we needed so we managed to cook some breakfasts/dinners, the location is great - there is a nice pastelaria just next door with the most delicious pastels! Grocery shops in 5 min walking distance, same for bars and cafes/restaurants. To be honest we were soooo happy that we chose this exact house for our stay because we were already quite tired from travelling and in the house we really did manage to relax and be in peace. Ah, you can also hear the birds singing when opening the door in the kitchen. Isn't that lovely?:) once again big thanks to the hosts for letting us in earlier and being flexible!

    It's a so cozy lovely little house that has everything you needed to stay. A great location, very centered, and easy to get around. Laura is very friendly and the most helpful person during the time I stayed, I will definitely come back to stay with this little house for my next time traveling.

    only downside is that the house door on ground floor gives straight away on apartment and noise from outdoors can be heard during week ends.

    Great location, welcoming owner with good recommendations on activities and restaurants in the area, very cosy and comfortable house. outdoor shower and superb balcony to relax.
