    We had a private room with shared bath. I didn’t realize the shared bath would be with a dorm style room. It wasn’t a problem but I’m not sure I would have stayed here had I known. The breakfast was small enough that it should be included in price of private room.

    Very clean with nice facilities. Owner host is very nice. Great location. Quiet for a tired pilgrim. Relaxing garden area.

    We expected to be in Estrella but it was actually in Fao. But no harm was done.

    We had an one night stop on our Camino. It was a good place to stay, including a swimming pool. The kitchen is well equipped with what you need in order to prepare food.

    Nothing, it was the perfect stay for day two of my Camino!

    The property was tidy, well sized and perfect for pilgrims. There was a lounge to socialise, plenty of space outdoors, a pool and the rooms had everything you’d need. The bed was comfortable with an easy to reach plug socket. The host, Sandra, was amazing and so so welcoming. After a few days of rain she was kind enough to tumble dry all our socks and clothes for us! The dog, Spot, is well deserving of his fame and was a sweetheart.

    It’s a gem in a peaceful town Fão. Room itself is as typical dormitory in any guest house. (In general and positive meaning) But the other facilities are amazing. Kitchen is very well equipped with enough basic ingredients (usually from pilgrims’ leftovers, like pasta or oils) Laundry is available either with the machine or handwash. Clothesline is under the sun, if you do it fast, your laundry will be dry faster. Garden with pool is really impressive, I could give a cooldown for my feet, which has serious pain in both sides. Very friendly and supportive host and her doggy ‘Spot’ will welcome you whem you check-in. Don’t miss a chance to stay here :)

    Wow! A not to be missed experience after a long days hike. The pool & garden are certainly a plus for this type of accommodation by far the best sleep. Sandra the host/ owner was most welcoming. Accommodation has been sensitively renovated for the purpose of meeting pilgrims needs. Sandra gave us great recommendations for restaurants nearby went to a local tapas bar had superb meal for 4 ppl under €55 drinks included. Simply sensational & memorable evening. Loved Spot the dog too!
