Traveller reviews

“Fantastic place, would come again”
30 Jun 2025
Fantastic place, it's much more than a hostel I think. Even though everyone has their own rooms, it feels like a tiny hotel on a shore of the beach. Loved it.

“Superb”

We loved the common area. Breakfast or dinner with the view over Ria Formosa - priceless. We lit up the fire in the stove in the evening for extra comfort. Great location on the Praia de Faro.
