Cidade de Olhao

"We stayed in this immaculately clean hotel for four nights in October. Our room was small but comfortable with good aircon. We had the bonus of a tiny little balcony overlooking the pool. We had booked breakfast and must admit that the restricted buffet was more than adequate. A highlight was the abundance and variety of fresh fruits on offer. Staff, on the reception desk, were delightful and very helpful. This is a comfortable base for exploring Olhao although we did find it a bit of a hike to get to the front."

"Great location, spotlessly clean and very friendly and helpful staff - a particular shout-out to Erica. Easily walkable to main old town and waterfront in under 10 mins, the pool is a great bonus and the rooms very comfortable (there's a kettle and mugs but you need your own tea / coffee). Breakfast simple but effective and very well stocked and presented. We used Uber to and from Airport (12 Euros) but hotel is literally a step from bus terminal and train station (no noise though) and so much to see locally beyond the lovely town itself. We booked thinking this might be a one-off stay but given how much we enjoyed it, I think we might be back."

"This delightful hotel is situated about 10 minutes walk back from the waterside in Olhao. Spotlessly clean with a good small pool that has a good number of loungers around it on different levels. Not much of a view from the pool apart from the hotel and the empty building next door, but from the 3rd (top ) floor where we were there is a view out across the town to the sea. Superior room was good sized with comfortable beds. Kettle provided but bring your own tea or take some from the breakfast buffet. Good selection for breakfast with something for everyone. Plenty of restaurants in the town, we didn't find a bad one in the week we were there. The train station is 5 minutes away and you can travel on The Algarve line along the southern coast of Portugal which is great. Fuseta, Tavira and Villa Real are all worth a visit and the fares are cheap! All the staff here SMILE! Which is so important, it's the same at their sister hotel, Pure Formosa, where you can use the roof top bar which is excellent, (Hi Jefferson! great service from him) We had a wonderful week here,and I'm sure we'll be back!"
