I booked a dorm room for one night whilst waiting for a friend. As luck would have it got it all to myself (May). The place was spotlessly clean, good quality mattress and pillow (better than I'd expect from a dorm) excellent value for money, has a kitchen and a beautiful roof terrace that encourages guests to chat - great...

I had to spend a night in Olhão and was looking for cheap accomodation, just a place to sleep. My stay ended up being extremely agreeable and I will certainly choose the Pensão Bicuar, even if I have to stay longer. Perfect situation, spottless clean, good, stable bed, friendly atmosphere, large rooms with TV and heating, shower in the room.... More

The owner of the place is really helpful and available . He will be happy to give you some tips for your stay. On the roof, a peaceful terrasse with a barbecue, perfect to have an overview of Olhao and chilling. On the last floor, a full-furnished kitchen , handy ! Bedrooms were cleaned.

We took our 9 month old baby to Pension Bicaur, and proprietors Jeff and Leonie couldn't have been more tolerant and helpful. A cot was made up in the room with cozy bedding, and the little guest kitchen was handy for making up bottles and baby food. Perfect!

What struck us most about this pension was the friendliness and homeliness of the hosts, and in the way that they encouraged use of the hotel. Our room was delightful and we looked out onto the street and street life. Outside our room... More

We stayed at this lovely guest house for a couple nights in September. Room was very clean and situated in the middle of everything. Jeff the guy running it was super helpful and the view from terrace is the best backdrop while having breakfast. We reccomend this guesthouse,

Olhao is a no-frills Algarve location, optimal to explore nature and beaches of the Ria Formosa national park. This Pension is a good fit to the town. It is near the main square but within the pedestrian area. If you have a car without GPS, look for parking in the main street a few blocks away. The staff are very... More
