EPIC SANA Algarve Hotel
The buffet was plentiful, with good gluten free options. The pool side service was great, and the bartenders were all smiles

Great hotel. Reception staff at check in was not very friendly but think we were unlucky. Room perfect and hotel spotless. Good selection of breakfast.

Grande Real Santa Eulalia Resort
Overall; loved my stay. But there were a lot of additional expenses. The tv in my room had no purpose and the wifi was not good.

Hotel 3K Faro Aeroporto
Extremely basic hotel. Fine for one night before a flight, but don’t expect much. Breakfast is very underwhelming. Save the €15 and just walk to Pingo Doce across the street instead. Beds are not very comfortable either, but for a quick overnight stay it does the job I guess.
