AP Eva Senses

Got the Marina view, worth i. Was so beautiful. It was my birthday and they catered very nicely to me to make my day special. I would definitely stay again. All the staff were nice and welcoming and very helpful in suggestions of places to go. Highly recommend this hotel!

Not my first time in Faro but chose this hotel for the rooms with balcony marina view. The hotel has a rich history and has been around since 1960s and its undergoing refurbishments in some areas. The old rooms look dated and could do with better cleaning as previous occupant’s hair was found in the bathroom. We loved the design & aesthetic looks of the new refurbished areas such as the spa, bathrooms, gym, pool & sauna but shame that there was a water leak in the indoor pool ceiling and rusty bits on the stainless steel railings. Considering it’s completed in Aug 2025, the hotel may need to do more due diligence to ensure the safety of guests. As a non Portuguese speaker, I felt that the check-in staff can make more efforts in being warm and welcoming. I noticed that this hotel is one of the few hotels ive been that check-in staffs are seated instead of standing, making the process somehow casual & less welcoming. I also called in to make a request for a late check out and received a hostile response by a lady who said ‘No. We need the room back’. We just got married the day before arriving & we are here to also celebrate my honeymoon & partner’s birthday. Weeks prior to arriving, I put in a request if the hotel could do a birthday special for him but this was not acknowledged. As an avid traveller who has stayed in many hotels around the world, I am a little dissapointed with the lack of personalised attentive service provided by the hotel. If the view & location isn’t a concern, I recommend the nearby 3HB hotel. We enjoyed our stay there. AP Eva senses have a great deal of potential, but they may be complacent at going beyond, as they are currently the only hotel at Faro marina. Additional employees like the elder gentleman pianist & hotel hairdresser were the warmest I’ve come across.

Very nice hotel in a great location, rooms were clean and comfortable just a couple of minor annoyances, no access to an iron for the room and poor lighting for my wife when applying her make up. Roof terrace is lovely just a bit of a nuisance to access along winding corridors but had a great snack bar. Swimming pool is excellent but difficult to climb out of as the surrounding ledge is high. Breakfast was very good and overall we’d stay again. In

Really nice stay at the hotel being so close to both the bus and train station. Very accessible to the high street and old town of Faro. Great view looking out at the Marina. Really recommend having their breakfast, lot of varieties both hot and cold, different refreshments including sparking wine and live piano music that adds the atmosphere. The rooftop pool is nice!

False advertising. The worst hotel I've ever been to. The pics are nothing like the actual rooms or lobby. It is a filthy, moldy, smelly, dark, old, worn down hotel. There is nothing about it that makes this hotel a resort or a 4star. At best it is a 2 star. The towels had brown stains on it. The shower is a plastic stand-in with dirty stained caulking. The bed was hard as a rock and was as old as the middle ages. The hallways are dark, ceiling falling apart and the carpet floors were worn and filthy. It looked as though no one had cleaned in days. You wouldn't even know there windows bx you can hear the people walking their luggage andbhaving conversation in the restaurants below. It has zero noise protecyion whatsoever. The walls in the room were damaged and stained and this place was just so gross I couldn't stay and moved to 3HB Faro. I asked for a refund or a partial refund and they weren't budging bc they said the pics are true. FALSE ADVERTISING. Not even the lobby looks like the pics. There were 2 ppl sitting at a folding table off to the side. I didn't even know if I I was in a hotel. Later the next day I was told by a tour guide that this hotel is awful and I hadn't even told her about my experience. She was just letting us know what other tourists have told her. Let this be your warning. It is not a 4 star hotel and stay anywhere but here.

It was a good stay but the hotel is bit old and not like the pictures. I feel its bit expensive compared to the quality of the rooms. Staff and services are great but would appreciate if they can renovate their superior rooms with sea view. Otherwise it’s in a good location .. close to the train station and most of the restaurants.
