"A very welcoming, basic but quaint (has all you'll need for a night or 2) easy place to stay, before flying home from Faro. An easy 10 min walk from the airport with a supermarket pretty much next door. The hotel has friendly, helpful staff and the double room was decent and clean, with a clean bathroom and good shower and a balcony. It even has a pool! Recommended! "

"Beautiful hotel. The sea front suites are great. "

"This hotel had a lot of space, with nice apartment style rooms. The front desk staff were very kind and helpful. We enjoyed the terrace and the view from the room. There is a great pool. This is walking distance to the ocean and beaches but we didn't love the area because it is so busy and touristy. The hotel itself was amazing. Good internet too. "

5/5 Excellent

"We stayed at the Carvi Hotel. Everyone was very pleasant, it was EXTREMELY clean. It is great location on the beach and close to everything. The hotel next store looks like a war zone and I will not lie when we first passed by it I was like OMG where did I book us, even though I read reviews that explained it I still was taking back, but the Car I Hotel was nice and the most important thing I wanted was that it was clean and comfortable and it was. I definitely would stay there again "
