We had a truly lovely stay at Solar Mendonça. The location is excellent – right in the center of Faro, just a short walk from the ferry terminal, the bus station, and many great local restaurants and cafés. Despite being so central, the place is peaceful and feels like a calm retreat. The rooms were spotless and tastefully decorated, with very comfortable mattresses. We appreciated the extra pillows and blankets provided in the room. The bathroom was well-equipped, especially for female travelers – shampoo, conditioner, and body lotion were all available and of good quality. Communication with the hotel management was outstanding. Everything was prepared in advance – we received all the access codes for the building and the room ahead of time, and we each had two key cards, which was very convenient. There’s also a rooftop terrace where you can sunbathe or relax. Although we didn’t use it much because we were mostly at the beach, we noticed the hotel thoughtfully provides special towels for the sun loungers. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would happily return. It’s a cozy, clean, and well-run place that feels like home in the heart of Faro.

From the minute we arrived to the minute we left the staff were all pleasant, helpful and informative, especially Joao. The room was extremely clean and had everything we needed. The breakfast was superb, lots of choice and good ingredients. We have stayed in 5 star hotels that do not come anywhere near our experience when staying at Don Rodrigues. A big shout out to all the staff, you're doing a great job Thank you

Quinta Dos Perfumes was great! Honestly, I'm glad we stayed there cos if we had stayed in the center we wouldn't have seen the Cabanas area which was really nice with the boardwalk and the restaurants. The staff was amazing and they offer you bicycles for free to use to go to the beach (well to the boat that takes you to the beach). All in all, it was great and I would definitely go back for a short break soon.

It was way more expensive that we anticipated especially for Portugal. I guess they live on tourists from Germany or France that visit once, and have bigger salaries than average Spanish person. Personally I didn't like it much. It is messy and dirty, not taken care of. There are some cool bars and food and wine is super good, but again...expensive, and really not much to do there. One day and you can see the whole city. We used the good weather to go near Portimao to see the caves, but lunches are till 2:30! Dinners are till 9/9:30, so plan ahead, and if you want to see the caves by boat, go earlier and check the tides. There are way nicer places around.

We stayed for 6 nights which was a night or two more than required. Tavira is an interesting town and we enjoyed a Fado performance in one of the beautiful churches. It has a wide choice of good eateries and trips are available to local attractions like the island. However, we were glad we took the option of taking the train to Faro for one day and to the crossingbto Spain on a small ferry on another day. Tavira is close to Spain.The ferry port in Portugal is an attractive town as is its couterpart onthe Spanish side.

Olhao is a welcoming laid back town this time a year. Its very well kept with interesting Cubist architecture. There are many great restaurants and coffee places in all price ranges. It feels genuinely Portugese. Surrounding islands are lovely and transport is easy and very affordable. The markets are also great to visit. The salinas are beautiful with lovely diverse flora and fauna.

Cabanas is generally low-key and low-rise.

Cabanas is generally low-key and low-rise. It's got lots of restaurants, some very good, and the waterfront boardwalk which extends the length of the main urban area is lined with restaurants, bars and some modest shops. Don't go for latenight carousing or nightclubs, but the area is very attractive in a gentle way. It's become much busier than it used to be, and there is still quite a lot of holiday accommodation under construction. There's a large but unobtrusive campsite tucked away a kilometer or so from the waterfront, seems to do good overwintering trade with northern EU sunbirds. Difficult to give specific recommendations for restaurants etc as tastes and chefs vary. I'd say it's best for older couples, those wanting to explore the many delights of the Eastern Algarve and the south-west tip of Spain (which is 20 minutes away over the suspension bridge at Castro Marim), families with younger children (probably not teenagers!)

We stayed in Faro overnight to catch an early morning flight. We went to the historical part of town and walked around. It was fine but rather unremarkable. However, there is a large shopping center in Faro with an Auchan Supermarket. This shopping center was fantastic, beautiful with nice water features and a large food center with relaxing outdoor seating.

Loved this place.

Loved this place. Working little town, accommodating to tourist but not yet over run or spoiled by it. Lots of picture postcard views but also evidence of real life happening on door step. Amazing selection of restaurants which were extremely reasonable for a traveler from UK. Local beach was great, and island trip very fun and great for a walk, or more expansive beach. Relaxed vibe to the whole place and charming. Very keen to return. Walking to beach, harbour, restaurants all within 5 mins, and train station ten mins ( although a Uber to faro was 12 euros ( 2025.) Couple of little playgrounds for kids, and river beach / sea was very calm and shelving. Would return with kids.

Need a car!

Need a car! Our main interest was the beach which is great so didn't really want to travel around. Vale de Lobo itself has no interest . A lot of building going on obviously for foreign investors. If you want to experience the real flavour of Portugal , this isn't the place. As a beach holiday with kids , that is fine. Food is repetitive and ordinary. People are friendly, ubers are cheap. The beach side restaurants have nice settings & views.
