Emanuele alessandro·4·Aug. 2026· "A wonderful stay that exceeded every expectation. From our arrival we were welcomed with extraordinary warmth and helpfulness: the atmosphere is authentically family-like and you feel right at home immediately.
The structure is impeccable, with extremely clean spaces, cared for in every detail and pleasantly scented. A real added value is the house cat: simply beautiful, affectionate and incredibly playful, capable of bringing moments of pure joy and making the stay even more special. A highly recommended accommodation for those seeking relaxation, cleanliness and heartfelt hospitality."

A little paradise where I will return as soon as possible!

Céline·4·May. 2026· "The accommodation was clean, although the floor was a bit worn but not bothering. The view from the window overlooked the rooftops of the neighborhood and it was magnificent. The bathroom was cleaned every day which was appreciated. However, a small problem with shower water drainage but I had the same situation in Porto. I imagine that's common."

Vila Sossego
1 Bedroom âą 2 Beds âą 1 Bathroom
Paulo·5·Sep. 2025· "The accommodation is perfectly clean, like new. Miguel and Emanuel were not present when we arrived but the check-in went smoothly remotely. They are available and responsive in providing all information and advice about activities and interesting places in the surrounding area. The village is somewhat out of the way but is only a few minutes' drive from Faro and the beaches. And in any case, a car is essential for visiting the Algarve, so it's not really a problem. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub, even though it could use a small cleaning. However, there are a few minor issues to mention. We would have appreciated knowing upon our arrival that basic items (salt, pepper, oil, vinegar) were available in the communal laundry room. Perhaps this information should be added to the welcome sheet found in the Vila? Having seen nothing in the apartment itself, we bought some and left them when we departed, barely used. Furthermore, we were frequently bothered around the pool by many flies and an unpleasant smell probably coming from the fields around the house (manure?) or a waste treatment center that apparently is located in the village."

Hotel Porto Rico
Breakfast included âą Wi-Fi âą Parking
Greg·4·Apr. 2026· "The room was booked at the last minute. The room was clean and the staff were quite pleasant, although no one could speak English, which was a bit problematic. Two of the 3 mornings we were out of the hotel before 8:00 AM, the time for breakfast. The last morning we were charged 3 Euro for 2 coffee when we left at 5:45. The room was small, which might not be an issue for some, but there were 2 of us travelling and we were in Europe for 3 weeks, and had to be creative in how to store luggage and access clothes. It would be ideal for one person."

Daniel·4·Jan. 2024· "Very Nice cool hostel to stay in Lisbon. Great location and super friendly staff Although I found it on misterb&b there wasn't much of LGTBQ+ vibe to it which is fine with me, but if you are really looking for pink accom, then maybe you want to look elsewhere. Really cool coworking/ digital nomad vibe. All facilities clean and modern, one of the best hostel kitchens I've seen, and all very easy. I'll definitely book again when I return to Lisbon"
