Casa Do Chico in Olhao, Algarve

The hotel offers a one-bedroom apartment with a separate living room and a private entrance. A large 20m roof terrace with sea views provides outdoor seating and dining areas. The apartment includes a fully equipped kitchenette, washing machine, and dishwasher for self-catering stays.

Guests have access to free WiFi, air-conditioned rooms, and BBQ facilities on the sun terrace. The hotel provides an airport shuttle service with pick-up and drop-off, express check-in/check-out, and invoice issuance. Pets are allowed, and there is free on-site parking (large off-season car park 200m east).

The hotel is located 20 km from Faro Airport and within walking distance to Lethes Theatre and Carmo Church & Bones Chapel (each 10 km away). It sits opposite the ferry terminal to the offshore islands and a 2-minute walk from a supermarket. The Church of São Lourenço and Island of Tavira are 19 km from the property.

Visitors highlight the huge terrace as a standout feature, with some calling it a real treat and noting it has different seating and lounging areas. The location is praised for its centrality and practical access to restaurants and transport. Other positive points include quality toiletries, powerful shower, and responsive host service.

The hotel has access to a golf course, though details are not specified. Note the indoor stairs to the apartment are very steep and uneven, requiring careful navigation and not suitable for those with limited mobility. The open-plan layout places the toilet behind a divider rather than a closed door, offering limited privacy.
