AP Eva senses

Fantastic experience at AP Eva Senses ! The hospitality was outstanding. A special shout-out to Reuben at reception, who was all smiles and took great care of us throughout our stay. He was incredibly helpful when we realised the activity we booked had issues due to our own mistake, and he went above and beyond to assist us. The hotel had a lovely atmosphere, with a friendly pianist in the evenings and staff who were consistently warm and attentive. The location was also great, making it easy to explore and enjoy the area. Overall, it was a great experience, and we would happily stay here again. Highly recommended!

Just spent 3 nights here and come home today.||Booked with jet2 for a 3 night stay in Faro.||Really enjoyed our stay. Staff on reception were friendly and attentive, Paula the receptionist was lovely and ensured we had a nice stay.||Clean and modern rooms with a great view of Faro Harbour.||Fantastic location. Around 10 minutes from the airport, 5 mins walk to the train station and bus station and very easy to get into the main city areas. Also very near to the starting points of local boat trips to Ria Formosa national park.||Breakfast was varied and tasty, enjoyed the pianist.||Didn't have chance to use indoor pool and gym but had a peak and looked great. Would have used if had more time.||Enjoyed the happy hour at the bar on the 5th floor. 2 glasses of wine for just €6 or 2 cocktails for €12 which is great considering it being a luxurious 4* hotel.||Had a great stay and would highly recommend.||Muito obrigada 😁

We booked this hotel because of its location in Faro, which is excellent, right on the marina and a short walk into the town. We’d read the reviews before we booked which said the hotel needed some updating and looked a little tired, and they certainly weren’t wrong. Our room (a city view suite) was large and comfortable but could certainly do with an update on the decor. The main public areas are comfortable and modern, however the roof top pool and bar was not only grubby and tired, it was simply a health and safety hazard. A lot of the sun beds are broken and in pieces just left where they have broken (having obviously not been inspected for quite some time), the glass safety barriers are filthy to the point it’s difficult to see through them, there are also numerous glass panels cracked or broken (surely a safety problem on the 5th floor), the canopy on the bathroom terrace was just shabby and a disgrace. The service in the bar on the ground floor was also abysmal, we went in on two occasions and were simply ignored by the staff so went elsewhere on both occasions (which is a shame because we like a drink on holiday and usually spend a few hundred euros in the hotel bar whilst we’re away). The maid service in the room wasn’t great either we were there for 6 nights in total and never received a single replacement teabag/sugar/creamer over the whole holiday, simply unacceptable when you pay over £200 per night in our opinion! On the positive side, The reception staff were polite and very helpful (especially with a problem we had during the holiday) the breakfast buffet was one of the best we’ve had whilst abroad, and the staff in the restaurant were great. Yeah that’s the only positives really!! A shame to be honest, it could be a really great hotel because of the location and layout. Would we book the hotel again? Probably not is the honest answer, I hope they get their act together and spend some money over the winter (and train their staff properly). Will they? Who knows.

We loved this hotel by the Marina and the special welcome to my husband, who turned 60 on the day of our arrival. The kind attention was much appreciated. The room and bed were comfortable. The indoor Spa was beautiful (we did not use the outdoor pool, but it looked nice too). The breakfast was very enjoyable with lots of choices, a superbe view, and amazing live piano performances every morning from a very talented pianist (Fernando, if we are correct) . We could not have asked for more! Very convenient location for everything (old town, island boat tours, ferry, excursions, train and bus stations). Perfect!

I booked the Eva Senses for it's location in the old town. It was generally a good hotel with a nice indoor pool and gym, adequate (but not exceptional rooms), decent breakfast (hot and cold buffet, meats, cheese, fruit and yogurt) and lovely rooftop views over the marina. The staff were all friendly and helpful. I would stay again. The price reduced after I'd booked so it maybe better to wait until a few days before you travel if going in the off season. The 16 bus from outside the airport goes to the bus station around 200 meters from the hotel for just €2.80 per person.

We stayed in a standard double with a city view room for 2 nights. The room was spacious and had a nice view of the outside road. The breakfast area was large and a nice setting to enjoy a meal, as you looked over the water area in Faro. A very busy hotel whilst we were there (mid-September) but convenient location nonetheless. Faro city itself does not contain too much to see, but the hotel is located close enough to explore the sites via walking. A nice place to base yourself to explore areas around Faro, I would say and the beach is a approx 20 minute drive away. Enjoyed 2 very good meals at Faaron steakhouse and The Chimney.

We had a suite for my husband, myself, and our two daughters. The room was very nice and clean. The breakfast included in the morning is outstanding with lots of choices. The upstairs pool is a little bit dated and was very chilly! But I believe they are renovating it this winter so it might be better next year. The staff was very friendly in the hotel is located in a great spot close to old town and lots of restaurants just five minutes away by walking.

We stayed mid October (2025). After checking in i asked the desk staff to send the housekeeping staff up to our room to clean the bathroom again . It hadn't been cleaned properly. And in a top drawer, there was cake crumbs and a used tea bag wrapper, from a previous guest. The bathroom was cleaned as per my request. The crumbs and wrapper were still in the drawer a week later. During the week, i kicked a flip flop under my bed. I had to pull the bed out to retrieve it. Under the 2 twin beds, it was thick with dust. The housekeeping staff made up the 2 beds every day, cleaned the bathroom & left clean towels. They didnt sweep the floor behind/around/under the waste paper bin, around the dressing table or the balcony floor, which was unswept when we checked in. The balcony table was not wiped clean once. My stay (with my friend) was mid October and our weather was hot hot hot! And the rooftop pool and surrounding sun bathing area was closed. And sadly, all the front desk staff (apart from 2 men manning the desk on Sunday 26 Oct, very friendly, very helpful....and both were smiling and jovial) were not very friendly. Does no one smile? Are the hospitality staff trained not to appear happy to see us guests coming through the doors? I and my friend loved our stay in Faro but sadly the Eva Senses wasn't the great hotel we were led to expect. We read all it offered online before we booked. It looked perfect. A little expensive, but we didnt mind that if it was as great as it stated on their website. Its a shame, we were really very disappointed after being super excited about going to stay at the Eva Senses. Breakfast buffet was excellent, pianist absolutely fantastic, views from the restaurant amazing, the hotel in general spotless. But just not our room. Sadly, we feel very, very let down.
