You will discover wonderful golden, sandy beaches, beach bars and restaurants on an island 10 miles by 1. The town ferry runs regularly from the end of may to the end of September. There is an alternate ferry service from 2km down river which runs all year.

A beautiful house with full of charm

We thouroughly enjoyed our stay at this property the house was beautifully restored and had everything you could want. The area of the house is spot on plenty of beautiful restaurants close by. We especially recommend La Petite France just a street behind the house. A stroll across the bridge and down the side of the estuary brings you to the ferry port which takes you to the stunning Ilse of Tavira. Our overall experience of the house was fantastic and Tavira itself a was a true gem. We will definitely be returning to this amazing house. Michelle and Lyn Pewtner ( South Wales)

Lovely house in a great location

Just come back from 9nights in Tavira, Jonny met us there early morning and fortunately we were able to check straight in which was helpful. A welcome bottle of vinho verde was left in the fridge which was a nice touch. The house is on 2 levels, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom downstairs and 1 bedroom and bathroom upstairs along with the kitchen and outdoor terrace. The rooms were large and air conditioned, and the terrace got the afternoon sun. Really well equipped kitchen which although we didn’t cook was useful. There were coffee pods and teabags etc but no washing up liquid and only 1 toilet roll in each bathroom, for the sake of a few euros they would have been handy to have had. The house had 2 hairdryers and provided beach towels which was really useful. A 4 minute walk took you to the ferry and the heart of the town. A really pretty house, we hope to return!

Enjoyable stay in Tavira

Beautiful house in the prettiest town. We were so lucky as there was a music festival on and we got to see different bands every night in the town. I loved the cobbled streets and sitting down with a cold beer and people watching. The ferry to the beach is 5 minutes away from the house and for €2 you get a return ticket. Beaches are beautiful, powder sands and plenty of bars and restaurants. We had some of the best food in the smaller restaurants. Local places are just the best. The house was ideal for us, 5 adults. We spent most of our time there sitting on the balcony just off the kitchen. Such a nice area to sit and eat drink and chat. We loved it in Tavira that we will definitely be back.

Lovely home in the heart of Tavira

A Lovely and comfortable property in the heart of Tavira. A 5 minute walk from all the shops, restaurants and ferry stop to get to the beach. The property had everything we needed for our stay and there was prompt communication with the owners when we needed it. Our family particularly enjoyed relaxing and eating on the terrace every night. Would highly recommend! The property is on two levels and the steps to enter the house are steep so it is not suitable for anyone with reduced mobility. The stovetop espresso pots were unusable but there were two other options of coffee makers that we used during our stay.

Great apartment in a great town

We had a great 3 week stay here and loved the town of Tavira. The apartment was perfect for our stay and was well equipped for the breakfasts and occasional meals we had in vs dining out. Angie was very responsive when we contacted her. 2 minor issues beyond their control: The free parking beside Pingo Doce was a bit of a challenge at times with us getting the last spot on more than 1 occasion. Too bad there are so many unused cars taking up spots there while waiting for service in nearby shops. New piping was being installed all around our part of town and not sure if it was from that work, but sometimes there was a funky smell seemingly coming from the drains. Otherwise, great spot in a great location.

excellent location

The house is very well presented, spacious and has everything needed for self catering, and a delightful terrace which we used for all our meals - great weather! The air con was extremely welcomed. There is definitely no need for a car to access most areas of the town, which has a good variety of restaurants. One of the nearest was La Petite France (very well worth a visit) but, be aware, that this and some others did not accept credit cards. A large supermarket is within walking distance - useful for immediate necessities. We did have to wait to meet up with the agent for the key when we arrived, which was rather irritating after the journey and the reason why we could not give it 5 stars. However, otherwise good, friendly service, which would encourage us to return.

Wonderful location and home

We couldn’t have chosen a better location for our stay in Tavira. Any of the services we needed such as groceries, pharmacy,restaurants, bike rental, were no more than a ten minute walk, and I’m a slow walker! The Roman Bridge and walk along the river was not even five minutes. The house was well equipped and the bed was comfortable. The three bedrooms were large and beautifully furnished with antiques and had large bright windows. The two bathrooms were roomy and convenient. We didn’t get to use the outside patio off of the kitchen as much as we would have liked to because the weather was not conducive, but we enjoyed it on the nice days. We also appreciated the convenience of being able to store our bikes inside the enclosed space just inside the front door. We hope to get back to Tavira and will certainly stay at Casa Joaquin again.

Great property and good location

This was a very spacious, lovely, and enjoyable property for us. The location is quiet, convenient, and walkable to everything in Tavira. It is just set back from the river and there are numerous restaurants for evening dining within 10 minutes walk. All the bedrooms had air-conditioning which was nice, and the beds were comfortable as well. The outdoor patio was ideal and made the perfect spot for us to visit, spend hours playing cards and sipping excellent Portuguese wine. The kitchen was very well equipped. We used the large nearby market to buy items to make our breakfasts at home each day and items for one very good at-home dinner after a long day at the beach. We have been traveling Spain and Portugal by car for 7 weeks, and for our group, this was one of the best of the 8 house rentals we have done on this trip. One note: Like many older homes in the region - this is a vertical layout on three floors. So, if you have trouble with stairs, it may not be the best choice for you. For us, however, it was perfect.

Great location in Tavira!

Tavira is lovely and charming and this apartment is as well. It’s in a great location where you can walk anywhere you want to be in Tavira. We walked to the ferry to go to the beach, we walked to great dinners every night, we walked for coffee and pastry in the mornings. The apartment is on the 2nd and 3rd floor with one bedroom on the 3rd floor and two one the 2nd. There is a wonderful patio off the kitchen on the 3rd floor where you can eat, read, sun, relax. Even though there is a lot going on during August and the Portuguese get started late and stay up late, the apartment is well insulated and sounds from the street were never an issue. The kitchen is well stocked and it’s easy to cook meals there if you prefer that to going out. (But the restaurants are great and very reasonable so don’t cook too much!) We were two couples, my mom and her husband are in their mid-70s. They did just fine with the stairs to and in the apartment. Beds are comfy, plenty of towels. No complaints! We had a fabulous stay!

Absolutely perfect!!!

We were a party of 3 middle aged couples and we spent 12 nights at Earl's House in Tavira, at the end of September, 2015!! This place was amazing and exceeded our collective expectations! First of all, it was very clean and inviting, with its blend of authentic Portuguese charm and modern updates. Secondly, it was a very large living space, accommodating 3 couples for a fairly lengthy time! The apartment is laid out over 2 floors, with 3 large, attractive bedrooms(decorated with Portuguese tile works) that had comfortable beds and large windows, 2 large bathrooms that had great water pressure and quick action water heaters, a very well equipped kitchen that opens onto a beautiful outdoor terrace, which was another wonderful 'living room', where we were able to eat all of our meals al fresco and a very comfortable living room, on the first floor!! The apartment is in a PERFECT location to everything that is amazing about Tavira.....the River Gilao, the garden square, Bishop Square, quaint shops, sidewalk restaurants and bars!! As well, it is about 2 blocks to the grocery store! Tavira is Paradise and Earl's House was the perfect place to call 'home', while we were there!

Cannot wait to come back

This property is just lovely, well exceeding our expectations. Communication with Angie and Jonny both before our arrival and during was excellent. They kindly arranged taxis to and from Faro airport for us. We have two teenagers, so the house worked perfectly. The kids having the gorgeous downstairs rooms, sharing their own bathroom, whilst we had the bedroom upstairs with our own bathroom. The vaulted wooden ceilings in the upstairs bedroom and kitchen are so pretty. The kitchen is very modern and well appointed. It even had a teapot, which i loved! The AC was a godsend on the plus 30c days. The terrace is not huge but perfect, it has a fabric awning which you can lower for shade. There is a washing machine too, which means we packed light and just did a few loads. We didnt have a car, but being so central it didnt matter at all. The supermarket is a 5 min walk, there is gorgeous bakery 2 doors down (Mr.Portugese) plus cafes and restaurants nearby. The ferry to the beach is just over the bridge, so close. We found the restaurants this side of the river much less touristy than the other side. We recommend Terraze, La Salto and Ti Maria Tapas. Tavira isn't a massive place, the main attraction is definitely the gorgeous beach. However, we were after a very chilled break, so for us it was perfect. I cannot wait to come back and stay in Casa Joaquim again!
