"This is a nice hotel with lovely swimming pool, reasonably sized rooms and yummy buffet breakfast. There’s dinner buffet on three nights too at €29 pp bit with lots to choose so good value. There’s even a little boat to take you to the beach. The only ‘watch out’ is that there’s music all the time and lots of children entertainment. Unfortunately our room was close to the restaurant, which was good as my wife can’t walk far, but they did not tell us that there’s music etc every evening till...

Top Camera Obscura Hotel Reviews

Pousada Convento de Tavira - Historic Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"N/A"

Residencial Marés

8/10 Good

"Lovely spacious room great river view , excellent location and good breakfast we will be back"

Palácio de Tavira, a Small Luxury Hotel of the World

8/10 Good

"A very pretty small hotel in a beautiful town. We booked two superior rooms. They were quite disappointing. So small there weren’t even night tables next to the bed. Rug and floor felt almost grubby. There is a strange outdoor space with a table and chairs but it’s in a bit of a cave. Obviously one of its main purposes is to allow people to smoke. Reception was marginally polite. In no universe is this a 5 star property. Food was very good but all in all I would not recommend"

AP Maria Nova Lounge - Adults Friendly

8/10 Good

"The Hotel is ok. Our shower was the best part of our room. To be honest, the hotel is great for one major reason … The location and convenience to Tabitha’s downtown town life without being too close. Plus the bakery around the corner was the perfect start to our afternoon walks. We won’t stay there again … it’s a one time kind of stay. If it wasn’t for the all you can eat breakfast buffet it would be a total waste … just get there first thing before it gets congested with hungry, rude patrons. Luis and his team showed consistent, high level customer service."

Hotel Don Rodrigues

8/10 Good

"Great location. 8 minute drive to Cabanas, Benamor golf course and 2 minutes to central Tavira. The room was small but the bed was comfortable. Nespresso and mini fridge were great although room configuration was a tight squeeze making access to both a bit challenging. The young man at the front desk was wonderful. The lounge, the pool and pool lounge were terrific."

Vila Gale Tavira Resort Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel runs short on hot water for showers in the mornings and afternoons but otherwise it was very nice."
