"Great stay here at Alfagar Village. The property was vast - many pools, restaurants and activities for kids/adults. The beach is a bit of a walk away but very convenient to have on the property. The rooms have been updated and were clean. Staff was always accomadating - thanks for Theo and Goncales for all their help with everything! Location was great for travelling to other locations as well and there was ample parking available."

"The staff were very friendly and helpful, the room was clean although there were some ants inside, and i think they need some mosquito plugs to try and reduce the number that get in the property, kitchen had everything we needed, and overall was a nice place to stay."

"This is a pretty standard motel a few blocks to the beach. The staff was friendly . The ac was not too good and could it be hard to find parking close by."

Room and free food were a touch basic and 100% satisfactory (coffee, tea, water, milk; bread, packaged croissants, cheese, cold cuts, eggs, jams, cereal). Right on the mark for the price. Location is close to local grocery options, but a hearty walk to old town activity or the beach. I did the walk each day, but some may prefer a ride or bus.

Lovely small boutique hotel. Close to town and a balcony overlooking town and ocean. Baskets of food brought to you for breakfast we ate on the balcony. Walk to the beautiful 7 hanging valleys trail. Just perfect!

We had a wonderful stay at Roots Hotel in Faro! The hotel was exceptionally clean, thoughtfully designed, and very well maintained. Everything was well thought out, and the location was perfect for exploring the city. A lovely place to stay, and we would happily recommend it!

This was a nice stay. Virgil, an owner greeted us, and answered all our questions. The rooms were quiet, and clean, and comfortable. We liked being away from the many people that are down around the main village. Virgil recommend the restaurant about 100 meters up the road, and we went two nights in a row. Great food and atmosphere.

We went into this stay fairly blind, so we weren’t sure what to expect. Let me tell you, we would absolutely stay here again. This place is perfectly appointed, check in was so easy and amazing, and you have anything you need. Be pleasantly prepared to experience Ritz Carlton style service! Vasco the owner is absolutely amazing and truly cares about all his guests. Wonderful, wonderful place. Wish we could have stayed longer. Panda the dog was an added bonus and made us feel right at home. Thank...

The front desk staff were the most friendly, gracious and helpful of all staff we have encountered in nearly six weeks of European travel. The hotel is in a quiet area of the very pleasant city of Loulé within easy walking distance of the historic old narrow street part of the town. In addition to typical breakfast food, included was a delightful selection of fresh fruit and an excellent espresso or café machine.

What a gem this place ended up being. Owner and his son were super welcoming and even had their dog laying around. Room was very large, and the scenic view from our room was incredible. The beach attached to the back of the property was a bit difficult to get down to, but that didn’t stop us from climbing down there to get the full experience. Walking around the property to the adjoining beaches was also super enjoyable. No complaints whatsoever, would stay here 10/10 times we come back to...

The building has a lot of charm. Plants, flowers and classic Portuguese interior design. It feels you are in a farmhouse, not in a hotel. The breakfast was great with so many options. The attic room where we stayed was so spacious, with a huge bathroom and a private terrace. I'd point out that they gave us combined twin beds and not a queen/king bad, which wasn't ideal. Also, the listing mention that they have three pools which is not true. There is only one pool available. The other images are...
