Beautiful guest house which has been lovingly restored. The staff are very friendly and gave us some great recommendations. The guest house was, had everything we needed and felt safe. We had a beautiful rooftop terrace which was great to sit in with a glass of wine in the afternoon. The breakfast had a wonderful selection of fresh fruit, breads and cheeses. The location felt safe and is within walking distance of the main harbour with plenty of restaurants and bars. We had a wonderful visit and will definitely return in the future.

Welcoming and central

We had a great 3 night stay at Guest Mar. The staff were super friendly and helpful - the breakfast was delicious and it was very handy to be able to use the kitchen throughout the day. Comfortable bed and a good shower. Space was a bit tight in our room, but it was workable. We made use of the shared spaces - rooftop, kitchen and reading room. All in all a lovely guesthouse.

Just go there, you won't regret it

I just have to admit, that this place is extraordinary. The staff are more than helpful, even if you arrive very late, after the reception has closed. The room was clean, cozy and nice. Not too much or to little at breakfast. Just as you want it to be. They actually offered to make us breakfast to go since we left very early. I'm staying here next time I go to the Algarve region.

I had a fantastic experience in Guestmar. The place is really cozy and you feel at home. A spacious room with A/C, delicious breakfast, and a terrace to relax and stargaze in the evenings is the perfect setup for a couple but also for a solo trip. Filipa went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and help me in enjoying my stay the fullest. Joao, the owner, is incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable. His passion for the house is clear, treating it with the care and attention one would hive to their own child. His warm hospitality made my stay even more memorable. A place strongly recommended!

Our stay at Guest Mar was an absolute delight from start to finish! We can't say enough good things about this place. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable to ensure our stay was perfect, and provide great insights to the area. The room itself was perfect, spotlessly clean, and beautifully decorated. The attention to detail was evident, and the comfortable bed ensured a great night's sleep. One of the highlights was undoubtedly the breakfast! Fresh fruit, local cakes, hard boiled eggs, bread, yogurt, fresh meat, and cheeses. All served at the quaint and charming dining area. Amazing! The location was also fantastic, with easy access to the Algarve and stunning views from the rooftop terrace. Overall, we had a memorable stay at Guest Mar, and we can't wait to return. If you're looking for a top-notch B&B experience with impeccable service, this is the place to stay! Obigada!!

I stayed here for 1 week on a solo trip away and could not have asked for a better place to stay. The accomodation felt like a home, with a beautiful breakfast spread every morning and the staff also went above and beyond to make the stay more special, whether it was dinner recommendations, day trip ideas or umbrellas and towels for the beach. Honestly can't recommed it enough and would definitely stay here again for my next visit.
