Breakfast was good except for the coffee served with I believe was condensed milk or sweetened milk. Service in the restaurant was very slow and you had to eat with 5 cats staring at you wanting handouts

Everything! The owner is really lovely and very accommodating. She let us checkin early and also extended the checkout time because she didn’t need to get the room ready for anyone else that day. The bedroom was exceptionally clean and the bed was really comfortable. The property is beautiful and within walking distance to the centre of Estoi.

Beautiful views and very friendly staff.
The owner himself washed down our car from the sand that was rained down on it over night

Supper was very good. Breakfast buffet was a solid OK but the menu never changed.
If you purchased breakfast and dinner you received a upgraded menu for supper. Very few clients had opted for the pre-paid supper included thus we received a very good menu offering every evening. Food was above what one might expect because it was NOT a supper buffet offering. Suppers were the highlight of our stay.
Decorated with oil paintings and tiled floors, Hospedaria Frangaria offers pleasant accommodations with free Wi-Fi. It includes a popular street-level restaurant and free parking.

Clean, staff cordial & professional, good breakfast
Hotel Cidade de Olhão is set in the Olhão city center, in the Algarve Region. The Hotel offers an outdoor pool and a sun terrace, where guests can relax and enjoy a drink from the on-site bar.
This is a fascinating little village. There is a shop of some kind around every corner (but it does mean you have to explore a lot to find everything!). It has a bizarre one-way system (do NOT DRIVE THE WRONG WAY TO THE HOTEL!). The sustainable produce shop just around the corner from the hotel was fascinating - and even sell products in hand-luggage sizes!

The Palace and the Roman ruins are worth a trip to this small and otherwise typical town; and Casa de Estoi is the loveliest place I stayed in over a two week trip throughout Portugal, with one exception. The host Jose is delightful!

Estoi is a lovely little town.
Estoi is a lovely little town. Please DO NOT GO TO OLHAO though - the police are corrupt and target tourists vehicles. They only clamp hire cars and leave the locals alone, they are a disgrace to the country! The town hall worker (in Olhao) stands about all day and hands ready made maps to tourist to show them where to pay the fines. I will never return to Portugal until these corrupt officials are removed!

The town of Estói is lovely with beautiful walks down the narrow lanes off the Church square. There are cafes, bars and shops. It is possible to walk into the local hills from the town where there are lovely views. There is easy road access to Faro, Olhão, Tavira and other coastal towns all with a great choice and range of restaurants, bars and beautiful buildings. The train along the coast is a great trip. There are ferries from Faro and Olhão to some lovely islands 20 to 30 minutes away. The apartment we stayed in - Estoi Terraces was excellent, spacious and comfy with a lovely outdoor area. Easy parking outside the block. The owner was really friendly and helpful and easy to contact.

Very quiet attractive village.
Very quiet attractive village. The main attractions are the poussada palace and the Roman remains.Both very impressive ànd worth a visit. The peaceful village is a welcome change from the coast. Casa de Estoi is a top class place to stay.

There are few shops and only one restaurant.
There are few shops and only one restaurant. There are just two things to see- the palace which is now a hotel and it is not open to non-guests and the Roman site which is interesting. A day visit is sufficient to see both if they are open. Walking in the area was not comfortable.
Wonderful breakfasts! An idyllic very rural setting with great views. Delightful hosts who run a an exceptional small quinta hotel Loved the pool, the gardens, the superb room, the relaxed atmosphere, the views (so many birds!). Everything was perfect for us and please remember that this was only 20 minutes from the port and city centre of Olhao, so easy access to Culatra and the islands, and within easy reach of Faro. What more could you wish for? Can't wait to return in October!
Gorgeous building, friendly staff who were happy to engage, and lots of interesting artefacts and information across the hotel. The views were amazing, and the gorgeous gardens are well worth a visit. Lovely quiet surroundings, huge bathroom with a very powerful shower. Everything was well thought out, huge bath sheets, different sized pillows, and even a personalised welcome on the TV screen in our room - great touch! Would happily recommend and stay again!

I had a great stay at this small family run hotel that exceeded my expectations. The welcome was friendly, the room was spacious and clean, the breakfast delicious and the pool was a dream to relax at on, before and after a hot Algarve day. I would definitely recommend this small hotel and stay there again when I come back to the region.
The hotel was spectacular- a wonderfully executed marriage of baroque Portuguese finery and modern luxury. The gardens were beautifully landscaped, the staff was kind and attentive; the bar was nice, a great spa experience and poolside view at sunset couldn’t be more insta-worthy. In summary, a lovely experience.
Rooms are spacious and clean. Hotel has a very serene atmosphere, everyone who stayed there and the staff were super polite and accommodating. Tho the pool is not big I still loved the outdoors area with real grass and trees around. There's also a gaming area with chess, monopoly and pool table to use for free.
Beautiful tradition home in the perfect location! It is clean, private and offers great panoramic views of Estoi and surrounding area! We really enjoyed exploring the town, meeting the locals in the nearby cafes and restaurants! We cannot wait to come back here!
The place is incredibly clean and beautifully traditionally furnished. The staff are unbelievably gracious, and it’s in the heart of town across from the main church, and a quick walk to both the Roman ruins, and Palacio Estoi.
the property is incredible and perfect for a stay in the Algarve! the hotel is beautiful, the grounds are incredible and the food is amazing. highly recommend for a couple or a family. it is a calming place to get away.
The host was very welcoming and the breakfast was lovely. We were upgraded to a larger room which was a nice surprise! A little supermarket over the road was really convenient. We really enjoyed our stay in Estoi
