"This is a nice hotel with lovely swimming pool, reasonably sized rooms and yummy buffet breakfast. There’s dinner buffet on three nights too at €29 pp bit with lots to choose so good value. There’s even a little boat to take you to the beach. The only ‘watch out’ is that there’s music all the time and lots of children entertainment. Unfortunately our room was close to the restaurant, which was good as my wife can’t walk far, but they did not tell us that there’s music etc every evening till...

Pure Formosa Concept Hotel

8/10 Good

"Parking was very limited and difficult...not close to hotel."

Pension Bicuar

10/10 Excellent

"Went in the first week of September and having the fan in the room was enough for me. Didn't mind the hubbub of the restaurant nearby but might be something for people who are light sleepers to consider. Fantastic interior, it was just so interesting and I LOVED the upstairs balcony! Rachel was lovely and so accommodating. Would definitely come back. There is a man and a woman's toilet per floor and for the 4 days I never bumped into anyone so worked for me as a nervous bathroom goer"

Wonderful house Built To Excellent Standards in the heart of Olhao.

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely traditional house in a great location. Only a minute away from the markets and bars/restaurants. Five minutes or so walk to the Pingo supermarket. The sun terrace was fantastic, with the balcony down a few steps for a coffee or glass of wine or two. Larger than the photos show, so ideal for couples. We had a lovely time here and will hopefully return!"

Real Marina Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly, helpful and professional staff. Excellent location. Clean and well maintained. Great facilities. Wide choice of breakfast foodstuffs. Decent sized pool and well equipped gym and spa. Coffee maker and kettle in room, with stocks replenished daily."

Zostera Marina

"Very good location it was walking distance to restaurants, supermarket and shops and broad walk."

Cozy house near the beach with terrace. Consult offers. Armona Island

8/10 Good

"Petit maison sympa, heureusement un peu en retrait de l’allée principale. Idéale pour déconnecter, aller à la plage. Nécessité de prendre le ferry pour accéder à l’île, à savoir avant de réserver. Promiscuité à voir en tête également mais qui fait le charme de cet endroit typique."

Central, one-bedroom duplex near the sea. Free Wi-Fi

10/10 Excellent

"Marta is a great host. Our flight was delayed 4+ hrs and she was waiting for us at the end of the road at 11pm at night. The roads were closed due to the seafood festival and the taxi driver had no idea where to go. He spoke with Marta and we met her to walk with us to the apartment. The apartment is in a great location, close to many bars and restaurants. It is a short walk to the train station to do day trips. It’s great there is a downstairs toilet as well as upstairs as the staircase is very narrow and spiral. There is everything you need for a comfy stay. We loved all the cobbled streets. Thank you Marta. We highly recommend this place"

Casa Rosa Villa

10/10 Excellent

"The property is beautiful, elegant and simple. The staff is outstanding and helpful. The included breakfast and afternoon coffee and snack was outstanding. The bed and bath, awesome. Will definitely stay again when possible."
