If you are walking through the Algarve, don't hesitate to stop at this pension in Carrapateira. This is a family run outfit with wonderful hosts. Eduardo was very knowledgeable about walking and took the time to chat with us and give us advice. Our affordable double room was as advertised on their website (30 euro) and don't miss the delicious... More

What a wonderful guest house! As a last minute detour on a road trip from Lisbon to Praia da Luz a group of friends and I booked into Pensao das Dunas and were absolutely amazed. The garden was stunning, the staff were lovely and very helpful, the apartment we stayed in was very clean and a perfect size and the... More

After the southern cost of Algarve, coming to Carrapateira, where this Pensao is located, is a real huge change. Everything is much more quite and relaxed, people want to surf or just enjoying the sun; and the Pensao das Dunas perfectly fits this mood! The owners are smiling and kind person that will help you in finding a place to... More

Really friendly, really cosy, great value for money and on the doorstep of the most beautiful beach in Europe. Great find, especially for families in an apartment. Particular thanks to the family running it, who take so much time to look after everyone. If value, comfort and a warm Portugese welcome is what your after, this is the place to... More

After a fair bit of travelling in- and outside of Europe I have to say this little Pension is one of the most memorable and great places I have ever been to - for the special people who run it and consecutively the interesting clientele it attracts. The Pensao is managed by Edoardo who really goes out of his way... More

I was lucky enough to hear about this place when I was stuck for accommodation in Carrapateira this September. The owners did their best to get me a room even though it was already almost full. I stayed 3 nights and they were easily the highlight of my 2 week trip. It’s not The Ritz when it comes to rooms... More

My partner and I stayed for two days in Pensao das Dunas, to relax a little from the tent we were using in this trip. The Dunas, is not bad for this pourpose, even if the walls were very thin, so you hear everything from next room. The staff were not specially kind. We expected something more from it.

This guesthouse was fantastic - amazing family-run place, our hosts were so hospitable! The location is great too, close to surf beaches and the amazing coastline (a car makes it a lot easier to get around). Our room was fairly simple but all we needed - we didn't have to queue for the shared bathroom. The family here is what... More

Lovely pension with fantastic, friendly owners, providing excellent service all around, especially the breakfast. Located in a quiet spot of the village and in close proximity by car and on foot to several outstanding beaches. Highly recommended! Will definitely be returning.
