Casa de Estoi

Great location in the centre of town. Beautiful old building with lots of character. Sadly, there needs to be some attention to detail. Some TLC is required and there were a couple of concerns; some of the electrics need to be look at - sockets hanging out of the wall meaning no bedside lights in bedroom. Cleaning left something to be desired; waste bins were not emptied and the floor in the corridor was not swept whilst we were there, highlighted by the beautiful sunshine!! However, the bed was comfortable with good clean linen. Towels were beautifully fluffy. Breakfast was adequate. Jose; the manager was very good at communicating. The pool was not heated as stated in information and there are not kettles in the room as it said there were. Overall, a pleasant stay and with improvements could be a lovely venue. Unfortunately, I cannot believe that, with the concerns I had that it warrants 4 star status.

Casa de Estoi has a new management and the good news is: they didn’t chance anything so far. So it’s still the super sweet small (7 rooms) hotel or B&B. Situated in an old villa in the center of Estoi it has the superb charme of a long gone era. Rooms are all very nice with some even away from the village road in font of the house. Beds are great, breakfast is very good and served in the super sweet breakfast/living room area. All this 4-star feel comes with a true 2-star price level.

Hotel muy agradable y tranquilo. El desayuno muy bueno y las habitaciones sencillas pero correctas para una estancia corta en un pueblo precioso y tranquilo del Algarve. La atención estupenda. Como es una casa / hotel te dan un juego de llaves con el check in y entras y sales a tus anchas.

Kleines aber feines Hotel in Estoi, ca 10 Minuten von Faro. Das Hotel hat einen besonderen charm der hinter den alten Möbeln und Teppichen steckt. Die komplette Eineichtung ist original und gepflegt. Die Zimmer sind alle sehr sauber und es wird jeden Tag gereinigt. Die Badszimmer sind etwas alt aber völlig in Ordnung. Das Frühstück ist überschaubar aber es fehlt an nichts und es gibt jeden Tag einen frischen Kuchen und frisch geltenden o-saft Parken ist auch kein Problem. Man sollte sonntags auf den Markt in Estoi gehen wenn man kann, der ist typisch portugiesisch und nicht auf Touristen ausgerichtet

A real treat, right beside the church my friend got married in. A walkway down to the Roman ruins. And a safe walkway to the relevant few restaurants and shops. Do not expect a lively area, that is further out with a taxi or over an hour’s walk for major parts of Faro. The hotel itself is full of charm, from the old winery below to the old stable-now-breakfast area. Oh and every room is adjourned with prints of beautific paintings and they’re named after flowers. Mine was ‘Jasmine’. A worthy trip, mixed with a wonderful hostess, Caterina.

Passámos a noite de 2 de julho de 2022 nesta unidade hoteleira. Para ser franca, não gostei de nada! Pagámos 129,99 € por um quarto de casal mas considero que metade do valor ainda era caro! A mobilia não é antiga, é velha !!! Há um certo ar decadente em toda a casa. As televisões existentes são umas "caixas" enormes, do século passado. Os candeeiros das mesas de cabeceira, não estavam ligados à tomada e não se conseguiu encontrar uma tomada elétrica por perto. Quando relatamos este problema à empregada (que trabalha ali à 7 anos!) , ela disse desconhecer tal facto!!! A limpeza de alguns espaços deixa muito a desejar. Quando chegámos ao quarto depois do pequeno almoço, vimo-nos confrontados com uma invasão de formigas, num grande pedaço pão (que havíamos comprado na noite anterior). Demos conhecimento deste incidente à empregada. A zona do pequeno almoço, que confina com a zona da piscina, tinha o chão sujo de pequenas folhas secas. Ao pequeno almoço não há ovos (nem cozidos, nem mexidos, nem fritos!) . Também não há leite quente; quem quiser tem que pedir à empregada para o aquecer. O pão que o meu marido tirou para comer ao pequeno almoço também tinha formigas, facto que demos a conhecer à empregada. Em conclusão, não aconselhamos este alojamento, de todo!
