10/10 Exceptional

We stayed here only one night, before we flew out the next day but I would totally stay here again next time we’re in Faro. Sunlight house is incredibly well located, near everything (shops, sights, restaurants, etc), very clean and safe and the staff were very accommodating and helpful. We had to leave very early the next morning and missed the breakfast but they actually left breakfast in a bag for us at our door to eat at the airport! How nice is that? 👍
