Relatively close to the marina and the shopping/restaurant area. The Saturday market at the Church of Bones plaza was fabulous. Short walks to the mercado and the train station. Assuming you arenât bothered by a bit of noise from the surroundings, this is an easy place to stay in.
The location was excellent and the host was extremely helpful. The apartment had the most amazing view and was set up very well. We enjoyed it so much. Thank you!
Staying on the 8th floor of this quiet apartment provided a wonderful view and a feeling of safety. Restaurants and food stores are nearby. It is a short walk to the marina and the old town. Faro was an interesting city for a 15-day stay. Transportation to nearby communities by train and Uber supported enjoyable side trips.
Our apartment was great, extremely clean. Ivan our host could not have done any more for us he went above and beyond what was necessary to make us happy.
8th floor, lovely views, walk to marina and shopping. Very enjoyable vacation.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Faro. The flat was perfectly located with easy walking to town. The views of the coastline were quite wonderful. The host was always helpful as we figured things out. Highly recommend.
Very comfortable place with all the basic amenities needed for our stay included. Host was responsive to our questions and provided helpful tips on parking. Location was excellent - easy walk to old town. Samsung smart TV allowed us to stream the Super Bowl through our phone.
This apartment is a gem in the old town area of Faro! It is very clean, modern and nicely decorated. Check in and out was simple and communication with Ivan was prompt and polite. Kitchen is well supplied, beds very comfortable. We were two couples and had plenty of space. Views from the 8th floor are spectacular. We would highly recommend this wonderful little apartment! Thanks Ivan.
Lovely floor plan, apt was full of light, fully and thoughtfully equipped with everything needed. Great location with free public parking right across the street. Ivan was very responsive and helpful from our first communication.
We are a senior couple that enjoys walking ,this place was perfect for exploring the city of Faro . The accommodations were as we expected,clean and tidy with views of the city . The bed was very comfortable ,lots of towels and grocery store within walking distance.Lots of restaurants nearby.
Nice apartment well situated for walking to cafes, restaurants, shops, attractions. Host was very responsive to communication. Very helpful with recommendations for alternative travel options when our flights were delayed. Would definitely stay here again
Beautiful views of the city, free convenient parking, easy walk to restaurants and waterfront. Has elevator. Host responsive. Would have liked coffee and paper towels. Is on the edge of bad area of town but parking and views are all out front (no need to walk through bad areas)
We really enjoyed our stay in this home away from home property. It's a comfy and homely, fully equipped apartment and the view from the apartment is amazing! We enjoyed waking up and looking over the city from the balcony sipping our coffee. The bedrooms are lovely and the beds were comfortable. The whole apartment was immaculate, there's really nothing to fault. The apartment Is only a few minutes walk into the centre of Faro, we were able to walk everywhere and there's a shop only 3 minutes away from the apartment with pretty much all the essentials needed for your stay. Our host was an absolute gentleman, and nothing was too hard for him. He responds at the speed of ligjtning and makes things happen without any delay. If we come back to Faro, we will definitely book Sky dream again. Thank you for having us!
We spent 3 nights in Faro at this wonderful owned and operated by a conscientious, friendly owner who went over and above to make us feel welcome and enjoy this beautiful city. Perfectly decorated, so actions and fully furnished- we felt like we were at home. The unit sits above Old Faro and is convenient to everything you could need. I would love to come back to Faro and I would definitely stay at this unit again!
The apartment was beautifully presented with comfortable furniture; the beds were super comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped.
We were a leisurely 10 minute to the marina, bus and train stations as well as lots of good restaurants.
I would recommend an ' hop on hop off' island exploration trip in an exhilarating rib speed boat and train ride to Tavira.
When I read reviews from former guests that enjoyed their stays, I want the same experience. This was definitely the case with the Skyline Dream. We enjoyed the central location, the comfort of the beds, and the cleanliness. The apartment is well-outfitted for a stay and the decor has a beachy vibe. It took a bit longer to make the final check-in arrangements, but it all worked out. We would gladly stay there again.
We have rented multiple properties owned by Ivan and everything is always perfectly maintained. Any time we had a question we've gotten an answer or resolution ASAP.
We will rent from him again.
Excellent
But there is nowhere on the vrbo app to add passport photos - had to contact vrbo to sort it out - very clumsy and time consuming - tried the app from different computers phones etc - you cannot add photos
We spent 3 weeks traveling in Spain and Portugal this spring and the 4 days and 3 nights we spent in this gorgeous apartment was one of the highlights of our trip. We rented a car so that we could day trip along the Algarve coast, which we did from Sagres to Tavira. With a parking lot across the street from the apartment, this unit was the perfect choice. Additionally, the apartment was walking distance to the Old Town and marina, But, when all is said and done, it was the spectacular view out of every window in the apartment that made every morning a special treat. This Faro retreat is a must stay if you are coming to the Algarve. PS the rental team was wonderful too.
Great views and amenities but I would not recommend
The apartment is on the 8th floor and has commanding views of the Faro waterfront. It is close to the ingreja do Carmen church and you can actually see into the chapel of bones. It has all the amenities you would need for an extended stay. Made our stay quite comfortable.
The area it was located had a lot of graffiti and we encountered our first racist incident at a cafe called that was located nearby. If I had to do it again I wouldnât pick this neighborhood. Also Ivan insisted on our passport pictures before giving us the address. First time this has happened in our travels. I was reluctant to share our passport information and if I had known this earlier I would not have booked this property.
