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!

Its staff is very accommodating and friendly. Rooms are very clean. Best if you book a lower level room. Bedding and bed were very comfortable. Sheets smelled really good. We would definitely stay there again.

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.

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.

Une maison d’hôtes aux petits soins

Magnifique séjour au GuestMar, le personnel est vraiment aux petits soins pour ses clients, très gentil et amical. Le petit déjeuner est fabuleux, la cuisine est à disposition toute la journée avec de bons gâteaux maison. Propreté au top. Bien placé, nous avons toujours réussi à trouver des places de parking dans les rues alentours. C’est une adresse à retenir !

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.
