**Amazing Experience at 3HB Hotel in Portugal – A Perfect Blend of Luxury and Warmth** My recent stay at the 3HB Hotel in Faro, Portugal was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was enveloped in a seamless mix of modern elegance, Portuguese hospitality, and thoughtful details that made every moment unforgettable. **Stylish, Comfortable Accommodations** The rooms are a masterclass in contemporary design, blending sleek aesthetics with cozy comfort. **Culinary Delights** Dining at the hotel’s restaurants was a highlight. The breakfast buffet was a feast of fresh, locally sourced ingredients, from ripe fruits to traditional pastries and made-to-order eggs. Dinner was delicious and great ambience. The rooftop bar is also really good. **Impeccable Service** What truly sets 3HB apart is its staff. Every team member greeted me with genuine warmth, anticipating needs before I even asked. Whether arranging a last-minute tour, recommending hidden local gems, or simply sharing a friendly chat, their professionalism and kindness made me feel valued. **Prime Location & Amenities** The hotel’s location strikes the perfect balance between tranquility and convenience. It has an outstanding location ! **Final Thoughts** 3HB Hotel isn’t just a place to stay—it’s an experience. Whether you’re seeking a romantic getaway, a family-friendly escape, or a solo recharge, this hotel delivers. I left feeling rejuvenated, already dreaming of my return. If you’re visiting Portugal, do yourself a favor and book here. Five stars without a doubt! Highly recommended !

Everything was EXCELLENT! The whole resort is in a gorgeous location of a petit fishing village. There's a charming promenade by the water, lots of restaurants nearby. At the resort you have a free access to the indoor & outdoor pool, jacuzzi and 2 diferentes saunas and there's a lot of activities in the high season, would recommend for families with kids. Room was spacious and well equipped, very comfy bed. Very nice and helpful people at the reception. Can't wait to come back!

We loved our 5 days staying here. It is in a rural location, with beautiful outdoor buildings and grounds, two pools, and many places to relax in the sun or shade. It is within walking distance of Tavira, but far enough away to be quiet. Very sweet, helpful owners and staff. Excellent breakfast and dinner. We look forward to returning one day.

I had this break over Christmas, not the weather for beach etc. I did enjoy the charming streets of Faro and the ease of getting out and about on buses or trains, very easy to do from I Faro. I had some great food, and particularlly enjoy comfort food at the Modesto Tavern. It is tucked at the back of the outstanding Municipal Museum. Outstanding Bean seafood, also very good value. I was made very welcome as a solo, which is a delight, restaurants often dont know what to do with you when you eat alone. The Municipal Museum is a must so well done, and the inclusion of art display made the ancient buildings even more intresting, and its free! I found Pastelaria Venezuela, its at the back of the market to have a morning coffee, it has the best Portuguese tarts amongst other goodies, warm and friendly staff, dont miss it.

We stayed for 6 nights which was a night or two more than required. Tavira is an interesting town and we enjoyed a Fado performance in one of the beautiful churches. It has a wide choice of good eateries and trips are available to local attractions like the island. However, we were glad we took the option of taking the train to Faro for one day and to the crossingbto Spain on a small ferry on another day. Tavira is close to Spain.The ferry port in Portugal is an attractive town as is its couterpart onthe Spanish side.

Olhao is a welcoming laid back town this time a year. Its very well kept with interesting Cubist architecture. There are many great restaurants and coffee places in all price ranges.

The salinas are beautiful with lovely diverse flora and fauna.

The central square and church is where most things are happening, there are plenty of benches to sit on and watch the evening unfold and plenty of very nice shops to browse in the evening. The town is bigger than you think and has 5 biggish supermarkets. The marina is the best place to see the sun go down but the white sand beach is lovely.

Cabanas is generally low-key and low-rise.

Cabanas is generally low-key and low-rise. It's got lots of restaurants, some very good, and the waterfront boardwalk which extends the length of the main urban area is lined with restaurants, bars and some modest shops. Don't go for latenight carousing or nightclubs, but the area is very attractive in a gentle way. It's become much busier than it used to be, and there is still quite a lot of holiday accommodation under construction. There's a large but unobtrusive campsite tucked away a kilometer or so from the waterfront, seems to do good overwintering trade with northern EU sunbirds. Difficult to give specific recommendations for restaurants etc as tastes and chefs vary. I'd say it's best for older couples, those wanting to explore the many delights of the Eastern Algarve and the south-west tip of Spain (which is 20 minutes away over the suspension bridge at Castro Marim), families with younger children (probably not teenagers!)
