Excellent, modern, and young hotel. Organization isn't always top-notch yet, for example, cleaning was sometimes forgotten. Nevertheless, if reported to the reception, it was immediately resolved. We had trouble opening our luggage; when reported to the reception, someone immediately came to fix it (without damage). One minor complaint: the sports facilities are too small. For such a large hotel, there's only 1 bike, 1 treadmill, etc. Many people want to work out in the morning, and there wasn't enough space. There's plenty of space by the pool, however. Very good, with various options for lounging by the pool. Good pool bar, although sometimes drinks take a while to be served. Friendly staff, good cleaning team. We had a wonderful, relaxing holiday!

Sekani 27The hotel was easy to find and in a great location right in the heart of the old town. It’s about an 8-10 minutes walk to the marina, and there are plenty of shops and restaurants close by.
The room was tidy and comfortable, although it wasn’t cleaned during our stay, so it seems you may need to request housekeeping if you want it.
Breakfast was quite simple with just the basics. We also appreciated the 12 pm check-out, as it gave us a bit more time to rest before our afternoon trip.

Excellent location with everything on your doorstep. Beautiful pool and garden areas, spectacular beach views, and great facilities. Staff were very friendly, especially around the pool. Food at breakfast and dinner was good, and evening live music was a nice touch.
Negatives
Our room had an ant infestation, so we had to switch; moved from the 5th floor to the 1st, where noisy neighbours at 1:30am meant a complaint to reception. On half-board, the dinner buffet only runs Tuesdays and Thursdays; other nights it’s a limited menu, with the full menu at extra cost (food was still good). Restaurant service was chaotic for a couple of nights; slow service , billing issues, wrong orders - though staff apologised and things improved by the end. Reception also didn’t explain key facilities at check-in, like beach lounge chairs or needing a ticket for pool towels.
Overall
We had a good holiday and would return, but would stick to breakfast only next time and try the local restaurants instead

ThortiaNot my first time in Faro but chose this hotel for the rooms with balcony marina view. The hotel has a rich history and has been around since 1960s and its undergoing refurbishments in some areas.
The old rooms look dated and could do with better cleaning as previous occupant’s hair was found in the bathroom.
We loved the design & aesthetic looks of the new refurbished areas such as the spa, bathrooms, gym, pool & sauna but shame that there was a water leak in the indoor pool ceiling and rusty bits on the stainless steel railings. Considering it’s completed in Aug 2025, the hotel may need to do more due diligence to ensure the safety of guests.
As a non Portuguese speaker, I felt that the check-in staff can make more efforts in being warm and welcoming. I noticed that this hotel is one of the few hotels ive been that check-in staffs are seated instead of standing, making the process somehow casual & less welcoming. I also called in to make a request for a late check out and received a hostile response by a lady who said ‘No. We need the room back’.
We just got married the day before arriving & we are here to also celebrate my honeymoon & partner’s birthday. Weeks prior to arriving, I put in a request if the hotel could do a birthday special for him but this was not acknowledged.
As an avid traveller who has stayed in many hotels around the world, I am a little dissapointed with the lack of personalised attentive service provided by the hotel. If the view & location isn’t a concern, I recommend the nearby 3HB hotel. We enjoyed our stay there.
AP Eva senses have a great deal of potential, but they may be complacent at going beyond, as they are currently the only hotel at Faro marina. Additional employees like the elder gentleman pianist & hotel hairdresser were the warmest I’ve come across.

Guest UserThis hotel is very recent. Beautiful, elegant and well-equipped in terms of services. What doesn't strike us as normal, however, is the lack of little touches for a hotel in this category. No shampoo, no q-tips, just the same gel for washing hands and in the shower. No shower cap. An empty fridge bar. We appreciate the coffee machine and the bottle of water, but one normal coffee capsule and 3 decaffeinated coffee capsules... not logical...
We asked for a room with a bath when we booked (we were ”upgraded” without any request on our part, on a ”marina” view, but with a shower.
As we are not very nice customers, we didn't say anything.
The bedding is good. The pillows are quite thick, which can be uncomfortable for people with sensitive necks. 3 cushions are available, but they are all very dense.
The road is very noisy, subject to a few car rodeos at night.
I've heard that the rooftop is noisy in November, but fortunately this is not the case.
The staff are friendly and respond to requests.
The breakfast buffet is very comprehensive, but for the evening menu, this type of buffet seems less attractive, but will surely please some people.
The spa is very good, at 12.5 euros for one hour (equipped swimming pool, sauna, hammam, etc.).
There is a car park at the hotel for 6 euros a night, but free parking is available 200m from the hotel by the beach.
All in all, then, this is a fine hotel with a lot of potential, but some details clearly need to be reviewed to make it really nice.

A beautiful hotel surrounded by magnificent gardens. We'd barely arrived when something unimaginable happened: a blackout on the Iberian Peninsula. The hotel managers responded in an exemplary manner: they provided information, provided everyone with a water bottle, and served cold meals and free grilled dishes in the restaurant in the evenings. The emergency generator also ran for a few hours. So, despite the uncertainty, we felt well looked after. Enjoying the sun by the beautiful pool area is also nothing to be sniffed at. The breakfast buffet was varied, including a good selection for vegans and vegetarians. We really enjoyed, among other things, the delicious, sweet fruit.

Angel Del CampoThe hotel is very comfortable and the rooms are very comfortable.
It is well parked at some apples at June dates and the centre pila nearby.
The worst thing: if you are with children is not recommended because stairs are dangerous.
The jacuzzi was broken.
The room was struck with a TV, the shower and the bathroom were broken danced but it could be used.
They don't make room, they don't change towels, they don't pick up the paperboard, I think they change it weekly.
Premiere the aesthetic comfort and we end up uncomfortable with the placement of clothes, baggage and bathroom.

Anonymous UserGreat location, just a 5-minute walk from the city center. Our room overlooked the pool, with a glimpse of the sea in the background. The breakfast buffet was excellent. The room itself was large and comfortable, and the staff were very friendly and polite.

Fantastic hotel. Stayed in a room with a small balcony and sea view. The sound of the crashing waves are very loud when you open the doors so if you’re not acquired to noise then you may want to choose a room not facing the sea. The room Itself was very clean and well maintained although the shower tiles had some dark marks on the grouting, doors and panels were spotless.
The breakfast was very good but was almost the same each morning, to be fair, what else can you eat other than the usual stuff?
Evening meals were lovely with a different choice each day but I personally found some dishes a little salty.
This hotel is perfect if you want to just chill and relax and take long walks. The promenade is very flat with lovely a sunset each evening. As we went in the winter it was very quiet with plenty of room to manoeuvre. People are very friendly especially in the cafes and restaurants. There are many eateries but if you like coffees and cakes , oh and sushi, it is heaven.
If this hotel had a few more facilities like an indoor pool and spa it would be perfect. I wouldn’t say that it is an ideal hotel if you have kids but the promenade would be nice for them to release some energy.
