Tavira is nice, but the stones polished by decades of cars and foot traffic made the sloping sidewalks/roads feel almost treacherous. This is not the location to get away from freezing rain. Some of the old area in the east side is undergoing upgrades to the water system, which means it may be dusty.

Cute little city full of 70 year old tourists.
Cute little city full of 70 year old tourists. Few restaurants other than Indian food. Little shopping. Beaches nice but very difficult to access. Pararia do barrill involves street parking then walking a half mile to a train which will take you 1 mile to the beach for 2eu each way. Or you can walk on a slanted broken walkway all the way. At the beach there is one overpriced restaurant.
Overall Tavira is Not family friendly at all.

We are scoping out retirement options so were looking for walkability and reliable public transportation. Tavira offers both! Local market is full of fresh meat, fish, fruits and vegetables along with wares such as baskets and cut flowers. Lots of restaurants and shops. Walking distance to train which we took to the eastern border then hopped a ferry to Spain for lunch. We opted out of the hotel breakfast and found a cafe across the river for coffee and avocado toast one day, another day we went to the Pingo Doce grocery store for coffee and a breakfast sandwich. We tried a different restaurant for dinner every night and every meal was fantastic. If we had to do it over again, we would not have rented a car. The metro, train and bus system is reliable and comfortable as well as much cheaper and less stressful.

Tavira is a city with very interesting architecture. It's crossed by a river that gives it a certain romantic flavour. It has some very interesting beaches nearby, with sand as far as the eye can see and good water quality.

Loved the Friendliness in this nice quaint old town, unfortunately the roads / streets were in process of being dug up & left rather unsafe ( we witnessed a lady falling).. lots of cobbled streets which were left unfinished. Hopefully they will complete soon for travellers & residents to enjoy this lovely town.

Tavira is full of character and has an obvious love of its history and heritage. It offers the opportunity to have a beach holiday without it being forced upon you. Wander down all the back streets and find new places.
We mostly self-catered but there are many restaurants with differing cuisines. Take a punt - it will probably pay off. If you like octopus take a trip to Santa Luzia just 3km away. It is a charming fishing port and the octopus catching centre of Portugal
The location was great for me.... quiet, but a nice 20mins walk to centre .... as I went in April , it wasn't too busy .... the pool was lovely.... unfortunately the cafe/bar was still being refurbished , but wasn't a problem ... supermarket close by.... I loved area as more the traditional Portugal ....
People very friendly and helpful .... my host helped me when issues arose, nothing was too much trouble .... can't wait to take my fiancé next time .....

The hotel is ideal for visiting Tavira; centrally located and surrounded by good restaurants with a short walking distance to the ferry that takes you to beautiful beaches. Miguel is a charming and helpful host who serves a lovely breakfast from a menu to order including fresh squeezed orange juice and local, fresh pastries! Comfortable bed and hot shower. Really nice rooftop deck/patio from which to relax in evening or enjoy coffee in morning!
Before arriving I got a big Emil about their rules. Little posters everywhere about rules. It felt like I was in Germany and not Portugal. Bathroom a bit tight but was fine for a few days. Bonus huge rooftop patio and kitchen. You have to pay for coffee but kitchen stocked with beer and such to pay for. Good convenience. Room could be a bit noisy when other guests open the doors or talk when entering. Location is in the middle of the action!
Cosy hotel, managed by a family (I think) very friendly.
Comfortable well taken cared rooms also spotlessly clean.
The breakfast was fantastic with a little bit of everything.
The pool area is quiet, with an well maintained garden surrounding.
The hotel is pet friendly which is a plus!
In resume: not a 5 star hotel but a really great place to stay.
I will definitely come back!
if you want to escape the masses in the typical beach resorts this is the place for you. A permaculture farm where the staff is very friendly and there to satisfy your needs. I really recommend this cute boutique hotel for a different kind of experience in Algarve. You won’t regret it - very peaceful and relaxing :)
The staff, especially Paulo, were great. The room was small, as expected, but had charm, especially the tiling in the bathroom. The location is perfect. The roof terrace was amazing with 360 degree views. Breakfast was good, beyond the norm in Portugal, with eggs, bacon, and freshly cooked pancakes if desired.
The staff were friendly and incredibly helpful. The hotel decor was fresh and the room was a good size and spotlessly clean. Bed was big and comfortable. The breakfast was very tasty with a good selection. Not far from Tavira and nearby beaches by car. I was there for work and enjoyed my short stay.
Best accommodation in Tavira Portugal or anywhere…very cleaning and very very quiet, Comfortable bed, modern interior, good location close to bus and train station. has Netflix, fast internet. We enjoyed the upstairs terrace, with privacy and a cool breeze.
Highly recommended.
Wonderful place to stay in Tavira. Right across from the ferry to Tavira Island with its beautiful and chill beach. I old town. Great on a budget - all you need, the breakfast was great. Best part was the staff - all very kind and friendly - always smiling. Comfortable beds.
Very cozy and clean place. The location is very nice, extremely quiet and, at the same time, near the city center and main attractions. The staff was very friendly and helpful in providing guidance to visit the city. I definitely recommend for a get away in Portugal.
Exceptionally clean, simple and quiet accommodations. Brother and sister team handling front desk were very, very kind. Highly recommend. Brother is an Architect and sister an Attorney so very good contacts should you be considering a move to Portugal!
The people are so nice in Portugal, they love to help. I thought I was lost but wasn't, and asked for help, A lady spoke to my host in Portuguese and pointed to my apt, , just across the street, and the host was standing there waving his hand.
We loved the décor of this hotel, so funky! It was new and very clean. Great location in old town, close to great restaurants and shopping. Very walkable to everything. Parking very convenient. A nice boutique hotel!
We stayed one night, arrived an hour late to check in. The receptionist was waiting for us and was simply a very nice person. I wish all my customer service experiences in Portugal was like this one! thank you!
The quality of the food and the size of the rooms was excellent. Staff so friendly - as was everyone in the Algarve. Would highly recommend this hotel. Tavira is also a lovely town.
Lovely breakfast! Best we had during our trip in Portugal. And the place is so quite and rustic! It's walkable to the centre but feels like the countryside.
