First of all, Tavira is such a wonderful location. It is a working town which means there is always something going on, Summer and Winter. It is not as busy or glitzy as Albufeira or Villamoura but there is still plenty to do, particularly if you like golf.
Being so far South, the skies are always clear and they say there are 300 days of sunshine every year. You are also fairly close to the Spanish border, and is not much more than an hours drive to the beautiful City of Seville.
It takes a bit of effort to get to the main beach on Ilha da Tavira, with ferries running from downtown (10 mins) or the main jetty at the other end of the salt flats (5 min) and for this reason, it is always relatively quiet. The sea is clear (if a bit on the cold side) and the beaches spotless, washed by the Atlantic currents.
One of the best bits is its proximity to the town, far enough away to miss all the noise but close enough to walk. It only takes only 10 mins to walk into town which means everyone can enjoy themselves and no-one has to drive.
As for the town, there are numerous restaurants and bars and tiny tucked-away cafes and shops. Not necessarily what the kids will want but great for the adults.
The Villa is now 10 years old but it doesn't look it. A striking modern design and particularly well equipped. We strive to keep it in tip-top condition and if anything goes wrong during your stay, we shall do our utmost to get it fixed without causing you any inconvenience.
