I had a wonderful experience at the sun light house, the location was just perfect. The hotel is in an quiete area but super close to all the restaurants and bars. Breakfast was perfect and very well presented. I would definitely stay there the next time I’m in Faro again.

United States of AmericaThe service from the staff. They are outstanding!! Specially Mario and of course Karina and Filipe. They make you feel as part of a family!
