I loved the decor and space of the apartment, large comfy beds with premium mattresses! Aircon in all rooms, wonderful balcony, great kitchen just no oven. Only problem was the shower tray often filled up but I presume the drain just needed cleaning! It was a wonderful stay and the hosts were so kind and very helpful. Will definitely be staying here again!

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Friendly staff and lovely breakfast was offered. Location was great if you didn't want to be right on the beach but more in the old town.

Lovely, lovely people - so obliging and helpful - and the rooms and facilities were exceptionally comfortable and spotless. The hotel is very well placed for transport links (but in particular), boat tours and for eating out.

We chose this cute guest house at the last minute and could not have been happier!! We had the “blue” room, which was very large, high ceilings and a small balcony facing the street. The room was very clean. Breakfast was perfect too.
The area around the hotel is very walkable, with great restaurants and the river walk.
I highly recommend this guest house.

Helpful staff
A very cute hotel, right next to the river and a vibrant plaza where you can watch people with a coffee or ice cream. The staff was exceptional- helping out when we needed, even in the middle of the night! Easy walk to the beach (under 2 miles).

Wonderful place in the center of Portimao
We loved this Guest House so much we extended our stay from one night to three! Super friendly staff, very clean and beautiful place, centrally located for a nice walk on the riverfront. Plenty of restaurants and shops walkable area. Also loved the breakfast. Only wish I could have used the pool but it was November so a little too chilly for that.

Great place to stay
Really loved our stay here. Hotel was beautiful. Staff very friendly. Pool looked lovely but we didn’t have chance to go in. We parked on a street around 4 mins walk for free. Breakfast was very good too- lots of fresh fruit and toastie options. Definitely would recommend.
