    First class small hostel with 5 bed dorms (2) a family room and a private room. Easy going and quiet, Faro beach is not a party area! Perfect for a relaxing stay.

    We loved the common area. Breakfast or dinner with the view over Ria Formosa - priceless. We lit up the fire in the stove in the evening for extra comfort. Great location on the Praia de Faro.
