The cutest little house, great location close to castle, views! rooftop terrace! amazing. I could totally live here - everything you need and lovingly set up for guests.

Tanya United States of America

definitely one of a kind. well thought out and excellently presented though best for those adept with stairs. the roof terrace is dramatic - with views for about 320 degrees around. kitchen cleverly done in a small space with all you need and nothing you don’t. very central.

Catherine United States of America

It is such a beautiful house! a comfortable bed, great kitchen facilities and the views from the terrace are wonderful. the hosts are brilliant - made sure I knew how to check in and gave recommendations for dinner. I’ve never stayed in a house like it and I would love to come again!

Caitlin United Kingdom

The property is well located, nicely decorated and had everything we needed. The icing on the cake is the rooftop terrace with its extensive views across the town. I would happily stay here again

Nichw United Kingdom

Charming and quiet, in the heart of historic Silves, beautiful roof terrace. Thoughtfully appointed with an attention to detail.

Rebecca United Kingdom

Jacqueline is an amazing host and it’s a pity we didn’t have a chance to meet in person. The house is very unique, with a stylish bedroom and lovely terrace on top. Going up two flights of stairs to get to the bathroom may be discouraging for some, but we didn’t mind it and loved every single bit of our stay. Many thanks!

Katarzyna Poland

Easy check in. Fantastic flat with lovely roof terrace.

Matt United Kingdom

Absolutely stunning! The house is just adorable, inside you'll find everything you need and more, the location is perfect, communication with the owners is super easy. Loved everything about the stay, thank you!

Zuzana Germany

We really enjoyed having our morning coffees and our meals on the terrace. The place was clean and comfortable. Walking distance to the castle and many cafes. Highly recommended!

Maciej Poland

The location was excellent and gave us the opportunity to explore Silves very easily. The roof terrace was delightful especially late afternoon with the setting sun. You need to be physically fit to enjoy this great house as the stairs are very steep.
