AP Eva senses in Faro, open May–September.
AP Eva Senses occupies a restored early 20th-century building in central Faro that has been thoughtfully transformed into a contemporary 4-star hotel.
Originally constructed in 1908 as a residential manor, the property underwent comprehensive renovation to preserve its Portuguese architectural character while integrating modern hospitality infrastructure.
Located on Avenida da República, the venue offers couples a sophisticated urban setting with period charm and updated amenities for ceremonies and receptions.
Good location to downtown Faro. Nice hotel good facilities plentiful breakfast. Although the spa area is new, the indoor swimming pool is not heated and it was cold. The sauna can fit maximum 4 people. Areas for relaxation and gym was nice. The temperature control in the room is centralised and since we are staying in the winter months the heating is turned on and unable to adjust/ coo airl in the room. We turned off the heating but the room was still so hot we had to sleeping with the balcony door open. This meant noise, noise, noise. The cars, the people, the shouting and the train. I did not sleep all night. If only the temperature can be adjusted in the room which means we can sleep with the balcony door closed and wouldnt be affected by the noise. Its a shame because it is a nice hotel.
