WAX Hostel  

On Faro’s coast, this pairing of a beachfront apartment and a lively hostel sits a few steps from Faro Beach and near Faro Island Beach. It’s close to Forum Algarve and Faro Marina, with Faro Airport about 0.6 miles away and the hostel roughly 5 km from the city center.

Choose a sea-view apartment with a private balcony, terrace and an equipped kitchenette, or opt for the social hostel vibe with communal spaces and simple shower-equipped rooms. Expect outdoor hangouts like a picnic area and barbecue, plus a massage room and multilingual staff to keep things easy.

Beachfront access and balcony sea views meet hostel perks: a bar, shared kitchen, library, picnic and BBQ areas, plus free parking in a designated zone. Bike rental is available for exploring nearby trails and the waterfront.

Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the properties for staying connected on the go.

On-site options include a restaurant and bar at the hostel and an apartment-linked restaurant serving Italian cuisine. The apartment also has an outdoor dining area and the shared kitchen lets you cook whatever you want.
