Incredibly warm host, Sarah, who welcomed us upon arrival. Beautiful swimming pool. Tiny balcony looked out on orange groves and distant hills - gorgeous! And the breakfast was the best we’ve had in Portugal - and we’ve had some 5 star hotels. It was carefully curated and beautifully presented - in the orange grove no less 😄

Really centrally located in Silves, safe area at night. Beautiful home with great facilities. On a lovely slope but not the hill top; makes stork spotting easy

Silves is a pretty and traditional Portugeese town with history and architecture and facilities for the tourist. It is a good place to visit. The deserted and boarded up trainstation looks like something out of an old western. Taking the train in the Algarve is great, but sad that the people let their trainstations decay. This is an otherwise great inroad to Silves but two kilometers from town. A geographical oddity.

I am spending three months in Portugal, travelling around, and Silves is one of my favourite finds. I loved all the storks and their nests, the castle on the top of the hill, and the abundance of nature. Our favourite restaurant was Cafe Ingles near the castle where we had a late dinner. There is a coffee shop, Ana & Joana, in a corner by the castle, which served amazing upside down orange cake. The owner was very kind and accommodating and made the visit memorable.
We walked most of the time and found it easy to get around. When we were looking for the museum, I stepped into an art shop and the owner came out on the street to point me in the right direction.

Silves had a small, walkable, historic downtown area.
Silves had a small, walkable, historic downtown area. We stayed close to the historic area so we walked to coffee shops, the park and shopping. We had dinner at four different restaurants for our four nights in Silves but unfortunately none of them was a dinner that I would say was fabulous. We went up to the castle but there was a sign on the door saying "STRIKE" so it was closed. It is a wonderful location to stay if you are visiting the Algarve because it is centrally located.

As every review this villa is a must !!!
As every review this villa is a must !!!spotless inside and out plenty of loungers umbrellas around the pool. Fantastic eating area inside and out. Every possible utensil you would need. Check in and out so easy with such helpful owners. We were a family of 7. 5 adults and 2 children. The kids refused to go to the water park or the beach as they loved being in the pool from morning till night. All toiletries were on all bathrooms along with plenty of toilet rolls. Plenty of towels. Will we be back I really hope so. Thank you Joseph and your son Joseph for our wonderful welcome and our complimentary bottle of port and water. You do yourselves proud . Keep up the good work you put into your beautiful villa and thank you for allowing us to share special family time .

The castle was great, clean and tidy and the views from there were excellant. The narrow streets were well supplied with interesting shops, many snack bars and some really great resturants.
Walks along the river were very pleasent with many storks gliding overhead.
The free car parking was much appreciated and the place seems to abound with pleasent friendly people
Don't hesitate to stay at this lovely and lovingly cared for small hotel in such a beautiful part of Portugal. The hosts live on site and take care with every detail. The landscaping is beautiful and natural and abundant with an intermix of plants - we picked and ate a pomegranate! Bedrooms and bathrooms are lovely - beds and sheets quite nice, beautiful private view out the sliding doors. So many thoughtful details.
Loved the pool, the games room, the outdoor kitchen. Rooms were big and stayed cool.
Short drive to a lovely beach and a water park.
Silves had great restaurants and a big supermarket with everything we needed.
Rita and Jose were very friendly and gave us their numbers in case we needed anything. Were flexible when we realised we had to check out earlier than we originally thought.
The property and the room are so beautifully decorated! With its Moroccan style, it takes you back in time. It’s in the pure center of Silves, a few minutes walk from the main street but still you can breathe the peace and the calm of the old town. The breakfast, the service and the comfort of the room will definitely be worth many other visits in the near future!
The layout and architecture! We very much enjoyed the privacy and the small pool and having a nice dining and breakfast space outside. The design was fantastic!
The location inside Silves was great with walking distance to restaurants and food (supermarket and market)
Our host was great, communicated excellently and provided lots of helpful hints.
Lovely small hotel, absolutely spotless clean and fresh room. Good, comfy bed and air con. Great breakfast and presentation, you get your breakfast served to your table from the most nicest owner couple! And your special request for gluten free is also noticed! Thank you, we enjoyed our visit. Also went for a cooling swim! Lovely garden and view!
The location is amazing. Right in the centre of Silves town. I parked right outside the property, and walked everywhere. I didn´t need my car again until I left after the visit. The property is an old little townhouse and very typical of the area which is why I chose it. The host is very helpful and answered any questions I had immediately
Reception was closed upon arrival, but after a call they came swiftly and gave us a cold beer while checking us in. Very friendly staff. The room was very beautiful and comfortable. The hotel is centrally located, making it easy to explore wonderful Silves. Breakfast was really delicious. All in all a recommendation to stay here!
Quintal do Castelo has a fantastic location at the top of Silves town with beautiful views overlooking the cathedral, castle and town. Loved the garden and pool which are rare amenities in the middle of Silves. An oasis of calm and beauty!
And thanks to Nicolaine, who greeted us and was very helpful throughout our stay.
Lovely, spacious room with ensuite facilities, very clean with friendly hosts. Breakfast was a good selection, served on the upper balcony with views over looking the Silves valley. Lovely pool with mini bar area. Plenty of seating around the pool so you can catch the sun at all times of the day.
Our room had a huge window with clear view of silves cathedral and castle which were only a short walk away. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Hotel was very clean and with a good breakfast included was exceptional value for money
Property was spacious and well stocked. outdoor areas were lovely. The on site washer was a nice surprise. Silves was a great base for exploring the Algarve. while not on the coast, the town was quiet amd full of Medieval charm.
The staffs were very friendly and the breakfast was very nice with sweet oranges and super delicious home-made cake (cannot stop eating the cake). The hotel is close to the river and city center.
Location was excellent. Employees were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was adequate. Views of the castle from the hotel were awesome. The pool and balcony off the lobby were both great..
Mosaiko is centrally located in Silves, minutes from restaurants & patio bars. Our room was beautifully decorated & the bathroom featured Portuguese
mosaic tiles that made it unique.
Really centrally located in Silves, safe area at night. Beautiful home with great facilities. On a lovely slope but not the hill top; makes stork spotting easy
