We enjoyed our beach Christmas. We loved walking over to the 2 cafes. Plenty of blankets to snuggle in at night. Plenty of dining options even in the off season. Easy to get to by Uber or ferry, there is also a bus but the construction on the bridge means the stop is far away. For Uber, make sure you look at google maps so you can get from the street to the house easily. Once you’ve done it it’s easy but the first time in the dark can be fun! There is a local airport however there only seem to be flights during the day so not disturbing. Great recommendations were left by the host!

Perfect beach house on a beautiful beach
The beach house was perfect for two couples to stay a few days enjoying the beach and local restaurants. It was clean and I loved the decorations. The personalized guidebook was amazing and very accurate.

Glorious holiday had
A super property right by the sea. Well equipped and comfortable. If you are looking for a simple getaway then this is the place to be. Right from booking to arrival and departure everything ran smoothly. There was a need to contact the owner and his response was rapid and helpful. In offering constructive feedback (and this is not a complaint) it would have been lovely to receive a maid service on day 3 or 4 to change beds and towels alongside sweep through - given the location there was a need to clear away sand deposited by us which we did with good humour. We will definitely be booking this accommodation again though - thankyou to all involved

Beautiful spot for a relaxing vacation
Paulo’s place is perfect for a beach getaway. Seconds from the beach it’s almost like you have your own procure spot on an otherwise idyllic beach. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed and the #16 bus takes you straight into Faro. The fish market at Faro is incredible and I couldn’t recommend it more. The barbecue is charcoal so make sure you bring some if you want to grill!! Local restaurants are excellent and very reasonable. You ça. Catch both sunrise and sunsets from the house which can be fantastic. I could not recommend this place more and we hope to return in the future!

Throughly Enjoyed
We enjoyed ourselves, the internal furniture could have been a bit more comfortable. The only downside was the parking and yapping dogs at night, none of which is the owners fault. Would recommend this stay to anyone …

PERFECT COTTAGE ON THE PRAIA DE FARO BEACH
Step out of the cottage right onto the beach.. dunes, beach, water and pure magical blue sky and sunshine.. this little cottage is cool and fresh, decorated throughout in white and blue with a nautical feel.. lots of idyllic beach walking and exploring the fishermen cottage areas of the peninsular along wooden walkways.. this is a truly relaxing place to visit and recharge your batteries!

Schöne Lage, aber....
schöne Lage, aber ein nerviger Hund neben an. Kein eigener Parkplatz zum Haus gehörig. Wer mit Mietwagen anreist, muss hoffen einen freien Platz zu ergattern. Der öffentliche Parkplatz ist 10 min zu Fuß entfernt. Die Flughafennähe ist für die Anreise angenehm, aber der einhergehende Lärm am Haus nicht. Wir hatten bei der Buchung gehofft, das uns dies nicht stören wird, aber das Frühstück auf der Terrasse wurde doch durch den Fluglärm sehr gestört. Teilweise konnte man sich nicht einmal mehr unterhalten. Die traumhafte Lage wurde leider dadurch geschmälert. Wen dies nicht stört, der ist hier gut aufgehoben, aber für uns war dies eben nichts. Wer Urlaub auf dieser Insel machen will, muss sich dessen bewusst sein. Erholung sieht für uns anders aus. Man kann an den Strand flüchten, da ist es dann einigermaßen erträglich. Das Haus selber ist in die Jahre gekommen, es riecht muffig, die Kücheneinrichtung sollte mal aufgefrischt werden, ( Schranktür fehlt, abgegriffen) und kleinere Reparatur arbeiten stehen an. (Türgriffrosette, Duschkopfhalterung,..aber das sind nur Kleinigkeiten) Für mich passt aber das gesamte Preis-Leistungsverhältnis nicht. Was man bezahlt ist die Nähe zum Strand, das Haus selber ist es nicht wert. Es hat etwas mehr vom Camping als Wohnen am Meer.

Süßes Strandhaus direkt am Meer
Sehr schönes kleines Strandhaus mit toller Lage auf Faro Beach. Sehr sauber und super netter Gastgeber. Leider waren die Betten unbequem aber alles andere hat gepasst.

Les pieds dans l’eau
Petite maison de bord de plage bien équipée. Le manque de climatisation n’est pas gênant car les soirées sont fraîches même en août. La plage est à quelques pas. Tout le nécessaire de cuisine est disponible. La proximité de l’aéroport peut être pratique mais être aussi une nuisance. Paulo est très à l’écoute et disponible.

Lovely beach house - great stay
I love Faro island and this beach house was ideal - it’s very cute. So nice to step out first thing in the morning and see the sea. We walked to the local cafe and had breakfast in the mornings overlooking the beach. There is also a good choice of restaurants. We hope to return.
