    Why didn't I try this sooner?

    After spending three nights, I can confidently say that this hotel exceeded my expectations! The spacious studio was immaculate, with daily linen changes and a perfectly working air conditioner. Central location made beach access a breeze. Friendly staff, especially Estefania at reception, made my stay unforgettable. I can't wait to return!

    comfortable bed
    friendly service

    our stay at el faro was very pleasant. the bed in our studio was incredibly comfortable, and we slept so well during our 8 nights. the location is great and super close to town, which was perfect for our appointment at the police station. i also appreciated the small swimming pool that gets sun for most of the day. the staff were genuinely friendly, which made a big difference.

    Charming, Charming, Charming

    I absolutely loved my stay here! The spacious studio we had came with a lovely balcony that offered stunning views of the sea, perfect for sipping my morning coffee. Plus, being just a two-minute stroll from the beach and surrounded by amazing local restaurants made everything so convenient and exciting!

    great location
    nice pool

    The location is unbeatable! We were just a stone's throw away from the beach, making it super convenient for our group. Plus, having a nice pool area to chill after a day out was a major win.

    Felt cared for, no complaints whatsoever.

    Great location!

    The staff here were super nice, especially that girl at the bar by the pool. It’s a quick walk to the beach and the main square, which is a huge plus. Just wish the air conditioning was a bit stronger. it took a while to cool down my room. Overall, nice place for a decent price!

    Good location near the beach, but the paid safe storage is off-putting.

    Great location with friendly staff

    We enjoyed a lovely stay in this hotel, thanks to its unbeatable location just minutes from the beach and nearby attractions. The apartment-style room was spacious and clean, perfect for our needs. The staff were exceptionally friendly, always ready to recommend great local dining spots. The only downside was the limited parking, which is quite tight for larger vehicles.

    Clean room, friendly staff, and a great location, with a lovely balcony view of the street and a helpful kitchenette area including a fridge for snacks during my short stay.

    helpful staff
    clean rooms
    weak air conditioning

    Had a great time with friends! It’s just a few minutes from the beach and the marina, perfect for relaxing after a day in the sun. The staff was super helpful, and our rooms were cleaned daily. The complimentary drinks at check-in were a nice touch, too. And if you’re into golf, there are loads of courses nearby like Rio Real Golf.

    One downside was that the air conditioning wasn't that powerful in our room, so it took longer to cool down. It was manageable, but it would be better for future guests to know.

    Comfortable Stay with a Few Hiccups

    The studio provided a cozy retreat, and I appreciated the clean kitchen space for quick meals. Be cautious of late-night street noise from nearby clubs. it can disrupt your sleep. Don’t miss exploring local dining options, especially the tapas places just a stroll away.
