Are you kidding?? What’s not to like, the property is at a perfect location, like NEW, so very clean and updated. The owner was one of the nicest owners you may ever come across. She explained what when where and how, so helpful (our first time in Faro) She will mention the market (a MUST) to shop for local FRESH foods and recommend a few local restaurants.

We had a wonderful stay. My husband has health issues and the staff consistently went above and beyond to help meet our needs. They were friendly, courteous, and empathetic. The hotel is conveniently located near the beach, stores, restaurants and the cafe. Can’t wait to return!

Hotel is great place to stay if you’re visiting Averio. Only two miles from Costa Nova. Quiet beach town with studio rooms. Only a few feet from beautiful beaches and cafes. Breakfast had a good variety and to top it off the view of lighthouse was spectacular.
Beach is only a few feet from the hotel

Nice hotel facing the lighthouse. The hotel interior is a bit old fashioned, but absolutely okay and well serviced. Super friendly staff and great view from the west balcony to the sea. Try the Tripa in the little hut in front of the hotel.😋
