Close access to bus and trains and only a short walk to the old town. Condo was very clean and bright despite being in an old building. It was well stocked with all the necessary things to make our stay comfortable.

The apartment was spacious, nicely decorated. I liked all the houseplants and the water view. Conveniently close to the train station. Found the surrounding area to be a little suspect, the building itself to be very old and the entry way dark. The apartment was withing walking distance to the town center and marina. Owner was very responsive to questions.

Excellent little apartment very near the town centre

Although close to the train station and not far from the flight path there was little to no noise. A/C was working perfectly and adequate for the size of flat. Access was easy with a working lift. The views were great from the balcony.

A real sweet spot right in the heart of Faro. It is so convenient, especially for train and bus travelers. You can live without a car quite easily. We did rent a car for a little while, to look around elsewhere. Ivan is a wonderful host.

Marvelous location

We woke up overlooking the water and at night watching the sunset on the small balcony. Everything in the apartment is nice and functional. We made breakfast every morning after we walked to Spar (5 min.) and bought fresh baked rolls. Ivan was very welcoming and gave us a short tour of Faro after picking us up from the airport. You are with walking distance to everything you want to do in Faro. If you need a bus 1 block away and train station across the street. We had a 7am train ticket to Lisbon and walking across the street with luggage was a life saver.

Lovely Apartment Ideal Location Sea View

The location is ideal and walkable to the Old City, Municipal Market, boat tours and many excellent restaurants including Hotel Faro rooftop bar and restaurant. The apartment has a sunny deck overlooking the train stations (noise not an issue) and out to the sea. It s spacious, bright and well equipped. Wash may be hung outside and fry in a day.

Quick stay in Faro

This is a great property right by the train station - good but can be noisy if staying in the second bedroom area. Great view over the water and the balcony provides a nice area for relaxing and watching the sunset. Close to mini- marts and lots of great restaurants. Walk around the old part of Faro. Our trip was especially good with Precious Tours looking after us. Highly recommend.

Great Place and Location

The apartment was located in a wonderful location, close to the water and the center of town. It was very comfortable inside and the decks were excellent to go out and view a sunset or a sunrise. We had breakfast on the deck every morning and enjoyed watching the boats move about. Felisbela was very helpful and gave us some great suggestions and recommendations. We absolutely loved the whole experience at the apartment and in Faro!

Very nice apartment with lots of light. The big bed was the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in in Europe! Ceiling fans were great because of the humidity. Location is a good starting point for a walk around town. Ivan is the coolest, we believe he should be the Mayor of Faro.
