Really centrally located in Silves, safe area at night. Beautiful home with great facilities. On a lovely slope but not the hill top; makes stork spotting easy

Good facilities including gym, pools and spa. Very good staff. The quality of breakfast is good although it would help to add some varieties. The forms are spacious and from service is excellent

Silves is a pretty and traditional Portugeese town with history and architecture and facilities for the tourist. It is a good place to visit. The deserted and boarded up trainstation looks like something out of an old western. Taking the train in the Algarve is great, but sad that the people let their trainstations decay. This is an otherwise great inroad to Silves but two kilometers from town. A geographical oddity.

I am spending three months in Portugal, travelling around, and Silves is one of my favourite finds. I loved all the storks and their nests, the castle on the top of the hill, and the abundance of nature. Our favourite restaurant was Cafe Ingles near the castle where we had a late dinner. There is a coffee shop, Ana & Joana, in a corner by the castle, which served amazing upside down orange cake. The owner was very kind and accommodating and made the visit memorable.
We walked most of the time and found it easy to get around. When we were looking for the museum, I stepped into an art shop and the owner came out on the street to point me in the right direction.

Silves had a small, walkable, historic downtown area.
Silves had a small, walkable, historic downtown area. We stayed close to the historic area so we walked to coffee shops, the park and shopping. We had dinner at four different restaurants for our four nights in Silves but unfortunately none of them was a dinner that I would say was fabulous. We went up to the castle but there was a sign on the door saying "STRIKE" so it was closed. It is a wonderful location to stay if you are visiting the Algarve because it is centrally located.

As every review this villa is a must !!!
As every review this villa is a must !!!spotless inside and out plenty of loungers umbrellas around the pool. Fantastic eating area inside and out. Every possible utensil you would need. Check in and out so easy with such helpful owners. We were a family of 7. 5 adults and 2 children. The kids refused to go to the water park or the beach as they loved being in the pool from morning till night. All toiletries were on all bathrooms along with plenty of toilet rolls. Plenty of towels. Will we be back I really hope so. Thank you Joseph and your son Joseph for our wonderful welcome and our complimentary bottle of port and water. You do yourselves proud . Keep up the good work you put into your beautiful villa and thank you for allowing us to share special family time .

Not in Silves, about 10 minutes by car to the local village Sao Marcos which has bars and mini markets. Lovely walks all around.
No TV or washing machine. All condiments provided as well as providing us with bottles of wine and water when we arrived

The castle was great, clean and tidy and the views from there were excellant. The narrow streets were well supplied with interesting shops, many snack bars and some really great resturants.
Walks along the river were very pleasent with many storks gliding overhead.
The free car parking was much appreciated and the place seems to abound with pleasent friendly people
Set in a rural location in a calm town of Silves. Very relaxing and extremely clean property.
Martha and Roberto were very welcoming and keen to make us comfortable in a very genuine way. They clearly enjoy running this B&B and pay close attention to our every need. It was attentive but not intrusive.
Breakfast was amazing- all organic which we love and a good amount of choice. Many homemade jams, variety of breads. Baked cakes - different each day. Freshly squeezed juice. Variety of eggs for breakfast. And dairy free options too.
Don't hesitate to stay at this lovely and lovingly cared for small hotel in such a beautiful part of Portugal. The hosts live on site and take care with every detail. The landscaping is beautiful and natural and abundant with an intermix of plants - we picked and ate a pomegranate! Bedrooms and bathrooms are lovely - beds and sheets quite nice, beautiful private view out the sliding doors. So many thoughtful details.
Loved the pool, the games room, the outdoor kitchen. Rooms were big and stayed cool.
Short drive to a lovely beach and a water park.
Silves had great restaurants and a big supermarket with everything we needed.
Rita and Jose were very friendly and gave us their numbers in case we needed anything. Were flexible when we realised we had to check out earlier than we originally thought.
The property and the room are so beautifully decorated! With its Moroccan style, it takes you back in time. It’s in the pure center of Silves, a few minutes walk from the main street but still you can breathe the peace and the calm of the old town. The breakfast, the service and the comfort of the room will definitely be worth many other visits in the near future!
The layout and architecture! We very much enjoyed the privacy and the small pool and having a nice dining and breakfast space outside. The design was fantastic!
The location inside Silves was great with walking distance to restaurants and food (supermarket and market)
Our host was great, communicated excellently and provided lots of helpful hints.
Precious place in the rural area just 8 min by car from Silves. The place is beautiful, calm, suited for both couples and families. Hosts are fantastic people : welcoming and full of recommendations. Do not hesitate, it's the perfect place to enjoy and visit the south Algarve region !! We will come back with our kids !!
This unique hotel decorated in a Moroccan theme is beautifully presented set in the cobbled streets of Silves. Rooms are very comfortable with quirky decor. Restaurant serving Moroccan food was superb as was the breakfast. Staff are very welcoming and ensure you have a pleasant stay.
The lady at the property was very nice and sweet. I felt like the service was very personal and genuine. The breakfast is served in a room with an impressive wine cave. It is walking distance from the castle of Silves (about 20 minutes).
Property was spacious and well stocked. outdoor areas were lovely. The on site washer was a nice surprise. Silves was a great base for exploring the Algarve. while not on the coast, the town was quiet amd full of Medieval charm.
Wonderful host took the time to show me around and made me feel welcome. What a beautiful view on the castle and town of Silves, the garden is so beautiful. I enjoyed the stay so much 🙏
Beautiful location in the centre of town, wonderful views. Gorgeous garden. Silves is a lovely town, lots of lovely restaurants within walking distance of accommodation.
Really centrally located in Silves, safe area at night. Beautiful home with great facilities. On a lovely slope but not the hill top; makes stork spotting easy
Love the architecture of the place and the décor. The view of the castle is beautiful and the location of the hotel is great also, not far from the center.
