This apartment was in a great location located in the main shopping and cafe/restaurant area in Faro. The rooftop was great for relaxing and enjoying a few drinks. The washing machine was a bonus.

Property info

The accommodation is composed by a modern apartment in Faro, located downtown in the center of the principal shopping street. Offers a bright and modern atmosphere, modern vintage style decorated, air conditioning, international TV channels and free Wi-fi. The apartment is located just 5-minute walk from the bus station and 10 minutes drive from Faro International Airport.

Neighborhood info

Faro is the regional capital of the Algarve. A favourite holiday destination, this cosmopolitan city lies alongside one of the most beautiful natural wonders of the region, the 60 km-long expanse of lagoons, natural dunes and stunning beaches of the Ria Formosa Nature Park. The beaches are many, ranging from the thriving resort of Ilha de Faro with its bars, restaurants and abundant amenities, to the seclusion of the miles of uninhabited sand dunes of Barreta island, lying between the ocean and one of the estuary’s lagoons. The city of Faro is a busy cosmopolitan center, offering plenty of entertainment and numerous shops and restaurants. The narrow little streets house many shops selling local handicraft and it is hard to resist the local sweets. Traditional fish restaurants provide the local shellfish specialities that often come straight from the Ria Formosa. The main advantage of a holiday in Faro is that it makes a great central base from which you can explore the Algarve. The charming Tavira is only a 40-minute train journey to the east, the exclusive Vilamoura is 30 minutes by bus to the west, or even Lagos at the very western edge of the Algarve is 1h30 by train.

The office closes quite early so if you need anything try to catch them in opening hours.
Great location in the old town area, apartment was nice and worked well for a one night stay. There's a lockbox for the key so there was no issue with late check in. We arrived late at night appreciated how great the team were in allowing a late check out, made a big difference to our day.

“It was nice”

Lack of communcation with the host, who did not answer the phone to assist us with the check -in . We had some issues with the check in , and it took us 1 h and 30 minutes to solve the mistery. Everythinng could have been avoided if they had answered the phone . They reimbursed one night because of the inconvenience and displeasure caused, though.. Toiletries limited to a tiny soup, so bring everything you need as you will not find anything. We also had to buy our toilet paper as they only left one roll for 1 week and three people. The bed was squeaky and every time you moved you were woken up by the noise. It is overpriced due to location but I think it needs a revamp
The apartment is not bad and it is in the city centre.
