Miradouro da Penha

Pros: The host was very friendly. She helped us to call the car rental when we had problems in making an international phone call with our mobile. There are plenty of free parking lots. The host also prepared everything we needed in the kitchen.

Pros: The room was beautiful It was close to the city centre The apartment had a corridor to use

Comfortable facilities with everything you need and the bonus sunrise terrace!

Pros: The communication, facilities, comfort of the room, view, everything was wonderful. I tiny bit remote from the center but with good bus access or via a nice walk towards the old town. The view from the terraces is exceptional. Would definitely book again.

Great place in Faro

Pros: the flat was amazing, with a great balcony with a view to the ocean. Shops like Pingo doce were close, parking places on the street without a fee.

Cons: none

Great Stay!

Pros: The Miradoura da Penha was such a great place to stay in Faro. Gisela, the person who managed my stay was so kind and helpful. Would definitely recommend to someone wanting to stay in Faro!

Pros: Very clean, great air conditioning. Comfortable bed.

Cons: Property was very good. Only slight downside was the distance from the town centre - 25 minutes walk. But I assume that was reflected in the price - very good value.

Pros: The room is very spacious with a big bed and huge wardrobes. The bathroom is also spacious.

Pros: If you think to stay at Faro, then that's the right place. Just amazing.

Excellent apartment.

Pros: I like that the room is clean and spacious, and the kitchen has the needed appliances. The environment is cool and calm, and it's close to different stores. Good communication with the manager of the facility.

Cons: Nothing.

Very good accommodation in a disappointing town

Pros: Large, very comfortable top floor apartment. Well equipped & very clean. Booked lovely Bedroom 4 with own bathroom but potentially shared lounge, kitchen & balconies with up to 8 other people! Booked for early January, out of season & not a problem! Free parking all around if you were lucky!

Cons: This type of accommodation seemed very common in Faro, which we were a little concerned about. However, it did not disappoint as we only had 2 other guests on differing nights. I would not have liked 8 other people there, in 4 private bedrooms, 3 of which share a bathroom! Disappointed property was one of many bland high rise tenament buildings in sterile, residential areas of Faro with few shops, restaurants & bars nearby. Faro, apparently not really a tourist destination, was a maze of similar streets to navigate, either into the town/harbour area or out into the rest of Portugal - thank goodness for Sat Nav! Beware - Do not waste €4 each on the hop on / hop off land train in the harbour area which is a nightmare - very uncomfortable especially over cobbled streets! The Tannoy Guide as we toured the town was too loud & distorted, in 3 languages including English which could not be understood & had loud music playing over it too! We were held captive, locked in the compartment & the only passengers on board. It lasted approximately 40 mins, we learned nothing about Faro or area & we relieved when suddenly we were unlocked remotely & able to escape! The driver could not be found for us to give feedback! You have been warned!!!
