5/5 - Excellent
Verified traveler
Small seaside town on a long natural beach. It’s a nice combination of locals and tourists. Very close to the Spanish border and 45 minutes from Faro airport. Water is very cold, but warmer than further west.

Muito mau
"Ficámos apenas uma noite porque o alojamento não correspondia em nada à descrição. O ar condicionado resumia-se a um aparelho “portátil” extremamente barulhento e a funcionar mal. A casa embora tenha tido algumas renovações, mantiveram móveis/madeiras antigas com muito mau cheiro"
