1 Son of a Beach Hostel

Clean! They clean every day. Staff is nice and friendly. Outside area is great. Kitchen so you could cook your own meal. Follow the COVID rules!! The rooms have A.C. Downside there’s no freezer and when it’s really busy you have to wait for a shower.
Good and nice place to stay!
3 Casa Algarviana Boutique & Suites



images
Stayed at Casa Algarvia for a week. The accommodation is modern and very clean. Our room wasn't huge but it had everything we needed including Wi-Fi and AC. It also had a flat screen tv with some channels in English.
The roof terrace is great and a nice alternative to the local beach. Breakfast was nice and the staff are wonderful...Etalina is very welcoming and was so helpful to us throughout our stay. The location is close to the beach and a short walk to lots of restaurants in the old town. I would recommend this accommodation.
5 Velamar Boutique Hotel

What a fantastic hotel with friendly/helpful/welcoming staff. Was here for my birthday with my husband and toddler. The rooms/bathroom very clean and very comfortable bed. There was personal touches left in my room for my birthday which was so lovely. The breakfast was good and fresh every morning. They have private parking if you hire a car which was great. Lovely outside pool with sun loungers. They offer massages also which a great touch for a 3 star hotel. Will definitely be coming back!
