"This property is very clean and chic, rooftop pool is beautiful. Beach is a bit of a trek and they don't provide beach towels or umbrellas you must pay for them "
"Very welcoming and friendly staff. Charming little hotel, filled with lovely touches (including herbal tea delivered to your room every evening to help you unwind). Lovely to have breakfast in the sunshine by the pool. I’ll be back. "

Olhau is a hidden gem in Portugal. Don't tell people about it as it needs to remain unspoiled and not crowded with tourists. It's the real Algarve.

Olhao is a typical coastal fishing town. A close knit and welcoming community which is thriving and growing (hopefully it won't grow too much or too quickly). Ria Formosa is an area of natural beauty. And it's impossible to have a bad meal!

Make sure to take the ferry to the Islands Culatra and Armona were our favourite. Also dine at Cha Cha Cha and Pizza De Pedro but make sure to book before you go as they get very booked up

We really liked Olhaio itself and the ferry trip from here. It is also a very good location for visiting Taviera and Faro.

It is a working town rather than a tourist destination which is why we chose it.

"This is a lovely flat in a great location, with a view of the sea and only a short walk into town and the beach. We loved having a hot tub on the roof with its spectacular view. Our hostess was very responsive when one of us missed her flight and needed help getting in and when a handle broke off a door in the hallway outside the apartment. We will definitely stay here again when we next visit our friends nearby. "
"Real Marina Hote & Spa, Olhão,
Fantastic stay! The location was perfect, the service top-notch, and the food delicious. Staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. Our room was clean and comfortable-just a bit warm at times. Overall, a wonderful experience and highly recommended!"

"It’s small, but there is everything what you need, even more. It’s very clean. We stayed for 8 days and after four days they cleaned the studio, we had fresh linens and towels, which I appreciate very much. The owner is very friendly and nice. He even advised us on interesting places to visit. We didn’t have any problem. Thank you for everything"
"A group of 11 friends, some couples, some singles, men & women- we ALL loved the property. We enjoyed our meals on the outdoor dining area, lounged by the pool and I personally appreciated the rafts! It was big enough to not be in each others space but intimate enough to enjoy being together. But as always, the people make the property. The property manager Marisa was lovely and made the entire experience seamless and stress free, which for us is mandatory for vacation :) "
"My daughter and i booked this hotel last minute, i would definitely stay there again if i venture back to Olhão. The staff are lovely and everywhere was so clean.. we made the right choice."
