Safe, quiet, convenient, short walk from the station, harbour, shops, restaurants and the walled old town. A warm and friendly welcome at check in. Very comfortable rooms. Great breakfast served on the rooftop terrace. Highly recommended for a stay in Faro.

Lovely stay

Perfect for my pass through. Very nice breakfast served on the terrace with a nice breeze. Just lovely! The shower was modern and clean, super important to me when traveling!
Julie, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Has a great roof top terrace to enjoy your breakfast….which is very good. Quiet and walkable to the centre of Faro.
Anne, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This was a great place to stay for 1 night before heading back home from the Faro airport. The room and bathroom were both small but it was clean and comfortable. Our room had its own small terrace and there was a very nice rooftop terrace to enjoy the sunset. We left early so did not have breakfast but the breakfast room was very nice. This is well located at the old town and everything was within walking distance. There is free parking near the accommodation that was very busy but we found one of the few available spots. The Faro airport is about 15 minutes away. I would recommend Sunlight House.
Janice Patricia, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great Location

Great location and very comfortable stay. Rooms are compact but comfortable. Has a living room/roof top patio that you can hang out in/on. Staff are super friendly and helpful with advice about places to see/eat. Leonardo at the front desk is wonderful
Maxwell, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great place for a night or two. Easy walk into town with ample parking close by and very attentive staff. Needs some updating.
Giovanni, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

I stayed 11 nights in a room with bathroom and I had no problem. The room was small but the bed was comfortable and the shower jet is good. I enjoyed it during my staying.
Michele, 11-night trip

Handy for the old town. Lovely breakfast.
Jeremy, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Awesome stay! The rooms are small, but comfortable. The staff at breakfast were always friendly, a little tip if you like sauce … bring your own! The breakfast is delicious but there’s no hot sauce or ketchup. Would love to go back!
Patricia, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Breakfast was fantastic. Rooms are quaint a little tight (but that is to be expected of a European hotel). Our only complaint is that the walls were a little thin so we could easily hear guests coming and going. However for the most part people were pretty quite.
2-night trip

8/10 Good

The management was very helpful. We arrived late and couldn't get a cab from the train station so they called a cab for us which was very helpful. Located in the old district of the town,which was good.
Patrick, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Highly recommended for an overnight stop

We had a single night in Sunlight House between landing at the airport and travelling onwards from Faro station. Sunlight House is in the perfect place to explore the old town on foot and be able to walk to the station. All the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We loved being given a map and recommendations, and eating breakfast on the roof terrace. It was so helpful that they were able to look after our luggage. The room was basic, but that's what we paid for.
Karen, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great location, friendly staff

This was a lovely B&B, with facilities and a rooftop terrace. The B&B is spotless, well serviced and the breakfast was very good. Just make sure you let them know any dietary needs in advance. WiFi was fine. No TV in the room but we were fine with this. In a really good location in the Old town with several bars and restaurants a few hundred metres away. Staff really friendly, they also provided us with a packed breakfast on our last day as we had an early start. Great price and location. Would stay again.
Jane, 4-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Perfect location. Unfortunately, the room smelled so strongly of mildew and mold that I had an asthma attack and had to leave within 1 hour of checking in. The reception was completely unhelpful and said I was not entitled to any refund after pre-paying for three days. The receptionist even denied there was any mildew / mold and blamed me by saying I didn’t know what it was like living next to the ocean and that it is normal to have moisture in the room. (I am from Atlantic Canada, where I lived directly beside the ocean for many years, and never had to deal with this mold.) Expedia is working on this issue for me.
Sheryl, 3-night trip

They do have a bell for when u arrive but nobody came. We needed to wait that people came out to go in.
