Casa Apollo Guesthouse

Fantastic find. We had a short break in Faro and booked directly with Casa Apollo and we were not disappointed. The building has been lovinly restored to offer clean, modern, contemporary accommodation. We stayed in the Pineapple suite as a triple, which was lovely. The decor is quirky and loved the theme and decor. In a prime location, not noisy and within easy walking distance to all attractions and places to eat. The breakfast is self service, continental style with the option of cooked eggs all served on the rear terrace. There is a beautiful garden and small pool area, which is a real sun trap and Jean Paul will even bring you drinks. We had a wonderful break - thank you! Help small businesses by booking directly via their own websites rather than using booking sites.

A great place! This guesthouse is spotless, well located and very comfortable. I stayed in Feb so didn’t use the pool but the garden is a lovely spot. Breakfast is delicious and the hostess (who was covering for owner who was away) was friendly, professional and welcoming. Highly recommend.

9 women celebrating our 30th "friend anniversary" and we couldn't have picked a better place to stay for our 3-night stay in Faro. Jean-Paul has been an excellent host - he helped us both before and during our stay far beyond what you can expect from a host. Casa Apollo is a pearl - even if it's situated in the centre of Faro it is a quiet gem only a few minutes walk from the main streets. It's a beautiful place with lovely and clean rooms. The breakfast is delicious with everything you can wish for; it's the perfect start to the day. We highly recommend Casa Apollo and will for sure book again whenever we come back to Faro :-)

After long and intense medical treatment i was looking for a Peaceful & Tranquil setting, the thought process was where could i stay and rest rather than a place i could step out from every day to tour. I reviewed both the location of this Hotel, 150mtr from the main streets of Faro together with a fantastic resting area within the curtilage of the Property, the owner prides himself on this fantastic sanctuary Garden with the swimming Pool to one side steadying at a comfortable 27deg. The perimeter walls filled with very distinctive Tropical Plants, some even imported from as far as French Guyana, amazing and calming to look at. Jean Paul & his Team could not be more accommodating, generally i never return to the same place twice as i feel there are plenty of undiscovered alternatives, but in this RARE case , this would be a no brainer and return i will. Bedroom 5/5 Bed 5/5 Breakfast 5/5 Host & Team 5/5 Comfort 5/5 PS i do not usually take time to write reviews however i think this was deserving for a small business that tries so hard to please.

I had the most wonderful stay! The room was perfect - big comfortable bed, tv, spotlessly clean and elegantly styled. You can tell that the owner took great care designing the property and in maintaining high standards. The pool and garden area was beautiful. The fruit trees were very cool! There was also a nice lounge area for guests. The owner kindly let me relax at the guesthouse until my evening flight after I had checked out. It feels like an oasis in the middle of the city - but only a 15 minute Uber to the airport which was very convenient. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. There were a variety of yoghurts, granolas, fruits, homemade french toast, meats, bread, cheese etc! I was also offered eggs. It was lovely to sit out on the patio for this. I will be recommending Casa Apollo to all friends and family who come to stay in Faro!

Wonderful place to stay. Chantale et Jean Paul very sweet, welcoming, extremely helpful and attentive. Truly a boutique hotel in best sense of the word. An oasis in the area of quiet, calm, peaceful garden with fruit trees, replete with an excellent cat. Breakfast superb!! Healthy even with fruit from the garden with something specially home made every morning. A high point of our trip. Shower excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
