This is a great hotel. We stayed for two nights and got to relax and mill about the town for our first part of our trip in Portugal. The staff is lovely and will give suggestions on where to go and where to eat. You can walk everyplace in the town and to the beaches from the hotel but it is very quiet and you will get a good night sleep. There is no parking, but there is a free lot right behind the hotel that is easy. The town is very nice and lots of great restaurants and shops.

This is a small hotel with small rooms but they have everything you need. The staff was very friendly and they had complimentary cake and port to try before dinner. Close to lots of restaurants and the beach is walkable.

Amazing place to stay
Amazing, what can i say! This is a true home from home. Spotlessly clean, extremely well appointed and the staff were absolutely amazing and so friendly.
The food was lovely, including the home made cake which is available 24/7. There was also a selection of local drinks to try as well. Just the best place to stay, and 50 meters from one of the best restaurants in the region.

I’m sorry that we only had 1 night at Guarda Rios. The area is peaceful, we walked the beaches, enjoyed meals in town and relaxed at our B&B. I sincerely hope we can return.

Wonderful introduction to Portugal! We had a room with a view, the hosts were very nice and I loved the homemade bread and the glass of port upon arrival. We would certainly go back.

A lovely retreat
This small guest-house/hotel provided us with a magical overnight stay. The town is well supplied with great eating places for dinner (O Pescador is recommended) and the buffet breakfast is superb. Thoughtful touches like complementary chilled water and beer in the mini fridge add to the lovely vibe. Worth it!

A well situated friendly hotel
A small, very friendly hôtel with nice and clean rooms. There is no elevator in the hotel, but some rooms are on ground floor. Perfect breakfast for us, with eggs and everything. The rooms on first and second floors have spacious balconies and some have an excellent view over the sea. Well situated in the centre of the little town.
