I would highly recommend Pensao Bicuar. I had booked another AL close by, my booking had been accepted, paid for and confirmed by them, but on arrival there was nobody present and several phone calls and email were ignored. I had to find an alternative place to stay on a busy Saturday night and Pensao Bicuar came to my rescue. Pensao Bicuar proved to be far more welcoming, professional and efficient. Raquel runs a great place. Yes it's traditional and simple but not pretending to be anything more. Very clean, great value and amazing roof terrace.

Absolutely delightful, great room, great location in a beautiful town, the vibe makes you feel truly on holiday and the stylised decor throughout the whole building is a great point of difference *Major caveats to this review Stair warnings in reviews are real, if navigating stairs is impractical this stay will be challenging Street noise is vibrant No aircon but delightful Seabreeze through the balcony

Pensao Bicuar is a real good location in olhao. 1-2 minutes walk to the boardwalk at the marina and 4 minutes walk to the cheap (eur 2) services to ria formosa nature park with some of the best beaches of europe. I stayed in the top floor appartement with sea view nice own kitchen living room bedroom and own shower and sea sight. Which was wonderfull. I came in late from the faro airport (only 15 minutes away) but the owners gave me on time instructions how to enter the pansao and room which worked perfect. The large supermarket pingo doce is a 4 minutes walk away to buy groceries for self cooking. The area is full with budget restaurants for people that like cooking.

As a seasoned traveler, I've stayed at countless hotels over the years. However, it's not every day that I come across a place that leaves such a lasting familiar and welcoming impression on me. Pension Bicuar, nestled in the heart of the picturesque town, has managed to do just that. The beautiful property, with its pristine rooms and unparalleled hospitality, has made our stay nothing short of a dream. From the moment we arrived, Raquel, welcomed us with kindly. Her warmth and friendliness instantly made us feel at home. Not only did she provide us with essential ferry timings, but she also gifted us to a nice Portuguese wine - a true testament to her thoughtfulness. Moreover, she went the extra mile by guiding us to a much closer and nicer supermarket than Lidl, which we had been walked quite far to. Her suggestions were spot-on and made our daily errands a breeze. Harma, another lovely team member, never failed to greet us with a bright smile each morning and send us off with warm wishes for the day. Her dedication to making our stay a pleasant one was evident. When we were unsure about the directions to the ferries and boats, Harma stepped in and graciously showed us the correct way, saving us from heading in the opposite direction. Pension Bicuar's meticulous attention to detail is reflected in their impeccably clean and well-stocked rooms. The staff's incredible local knowledge and genuine care for their guests' needs made our stay an unforgettable experience. When we realized we had forgotten our beach towels, the team at Pension Bicuar graciously lent us some, turning what could have been an inconvenience into a non-issue. The hotel's prime location puts everything you need within easy reach. Our third-floor room offered a lovely vantage point from which to enjoy the surroundings. As we approach our eighth and final night here, I can't help but feel a pang of sadness at the thought of leaving this delightful haven. In conclusion, our stay at Pension Bicuar has been nothing short of extraordinary. The exceptional hospitality, pristine accommodations, and convenient location have made this trip an absolute pleasure. I cannot recommend Pension Bicuar highly enough, and I eagerly look forward to returning next year. Thank you, Raquel, Harma, and the entire team for making our stay so memorable! Also apologies if I misspelled any names.

Great hotel and customer service. Option to leave luggage which was handy. Place was very close and great location, close to marina, bars, restaurants and shops. 3 min walk to the local supermarket. Kitchen was handy and kept very clean. Terrace was great, great for catching the sun and a lovely view.

Unfortunately, I hereby express my total discontent and outrage with the owners of this space. I made a reservation through the website on 01/01/23 for the month of June, where I tried to make several calls to the space to find out more information, but without success! I started to find it strange, however we had to cancel our trip for health reasons, and once again I tried to contact them several times by phone and without success to cancel... So I sent an email asking them to please contact me so I could cancel, then came the news that I would have to pay the total amount of the reservation, more than €400, where I put my foot down and said no and now they want me to pay €211... The justification is that the cancellation was made outside the dates, because unfortunately they do not answer the phone at any time for months in a row... Excuse me, I work in tourism and I have never been in a situation like this, because we are always available to serve and receive guests... Be careful because these owners are cheaters, and everything else is English. Be careful, because they will then resort to legal means, where I already have my lawyers dealing with the matter, because this is nothing more than an armed robbery.

Sono tornata per la seconda volta presso la Pension Bicuar e questa volta sono rimasta più a lungo. L’appartamento è stato il posto perfetto per passare qualche settimana: è luminoso, ben arredato, ottima pulizia e comodissimo perché ben attrezzato. La pensione si trova proprio nel centro di Olhão a due passi dal mercato, supermercati, stazione del treno e tutti i servizi utili. Consiglio la Pension Bicuar anche perché è un posto caratteristico e autentico. Bellissimi i tramonti dalla terrazza comune che si affaccia su tutta la città e su Ria formosa

Ich habe hier zwei Wochen wie unter Freunden gewohnt und es sehr genossen. Die Nähe zu allem ist wunderbar. Eine sehr authentische Atmosphäre mit dem herrlichen Dachgarten, den ich zum malen benutzen konnte. Alles ist sehr sauber, Raquel ist eine hilfreiche, offene Gastgeberin, sie kümmert sich um alles und sollte wirklich eine Gehalts🎄erhöhung bekommen. Vielen Dank auch an Rama für den tollen Service. Wünsche mir für nächstes Mal, dass auch deutsche 🖥Programme auf dem TV installiert werden, das sollte kein Problem sein. Bis bald, Ihr Lieben und bleibt alle gesund ♥️
