Convenient location that is walkable to old town, bars, shopping, and a huge public parking lot. Clean room, wifi worked great, breakfast was wonderful, front desk staff were friendly and helpful. Quiet at night with some staff noise outside our window in the morning. Beautiful yellow building and breakfast room. I’d stay here again and recommend to others.

The Sunlight staff were so helpful and communicated quickly every time I had a query. The room was small but clean and all we needed for a one night stay right by Faro old town. It was noisy as rooms close together so could hear neighbour snoring but a great stop off point en route to explore the Algarve.

We stayed here only one night, before we flew out the next day but I would totally stay here again next time we’re in Faro. Sunlight house is incredibly well located, near everything (shops, sights, restaurants, etc), very clean and safe and the staff were very accommodating and helpful. We had to leave very early the next morning and missed the breakfast but they actually left breakfast in a bag for us at our door to eat at the airport! How nice is that? 👍
