About this property

Contemporary living 2 bedroom Apartment Central Tavira

This Penthouse Apartment is located just a few minutes walk from the centre of Tavira and is within easy reach of The Gran Plaza Shopping Centre.
The Apartment is fully air conditioned and has a fully equipped kitchen with an electric oven, fridge and freezer, dishwasher machine, integrated microwave and washing machine.Includes drying frame, ironing board, and detergents,.
The kitchen leads to a South facing balcony with table and chairs from which you can enjoy an early breakfast in the sunshine or a late evening drink.

The lounge has sliding doors which also lead to the balcony. There is a sofa bed if a 5th person wished to stay. The room is equipped with a flat screen TV and DVD player and wireless internet is included at no extra cost. There is also a dining table and chairs from which to relax and share a meal or a bottle of wine

Bedroom 1 is air conditioned and has a double bed and fitted wardrobes. Sliding doors lead out to a private balcony with views to the swimming pool and Tavira town to the west . Bedroom 2 is also air conditioned and has 2 single beds and fitted wardrobes. Each bedroom is served by a fully equipped bathroom with shower.
The apartment is located in a gated condominium, with a shared pool and gardens. Underground parking is available.

The Apartment is a 10 minute walk into the old town which is one of the best preserved in the Algarve and many of its cobbled streets are pedestrianised. Street cafes and inexpensive restaurants abound and fish is a specialty. The Town Council organises a busy program of entertainments through the summer – street theatre, folk music and dancing, concerts, fairs, exhibitions, balloon races, air displays, film and culinary festivals,

The beaches in this region are quite simply stunning, golden and, with 7km of pristine sandy shoreline to choose from, which never gets overcrowded.The beach in Tavira is a blue flag beach, separated from the mainland by the sea and has to be reached by a ferry boat or water taxi.It is certainly worth doing as the island is beautiful- it feels like being on your own tropical island! The ferry boat can be boarded from the river side in town and takes about 10-15 minutes.

The Santa Maria condominium has both a full size and a childrens pool with lawns with trees providing privacy.. There is also leisure centre next door to the condominium which has an indoor swimming pool, tennis courts, gardens and a children's playpark.

We had a wonderful time in Tavira. The property was in a great position and we were able to walk to all parts of the town. We didn't actually use the pool as we prefer the beach and there are lovely beaches in the area. There are some really good restaurants in the area and the scenery is lovely. The apartment is spacious and well equipped and we highly recommend it.b

Great Stay

We had a wonderful 5 night stay at Collette's condo in Tavira. Very comfortable unit with modern conveniences. Location was two minute walk to large shopping center and 5 minute drive to downtown and Old Town. She even greeted us with wine and goodies upon arrival. Would definitely recommend to anyone and should we ever get back here we will stay again. Thanks again, Bob

Perfection!

This is such a nice property and it is exactly as shown online, with comfortable furniture, well-stocked kitchen, and nice linens. It was also spotlessly clean! Easy walk to the new mall with a Continente store. Also walkable to the old section with the Roman bridge, castle, etc. We loved everything about our visit. Most importantly, Collette is a fabulous vrbo host and had lots of suggestions of things to do and see, and was able to flexible with our check in and out times. I highly recommend and will certainly stay there again if I'm in the area!

Wonderful stay in Tavira

Collette was so nice and helpful. She responded very fast and made our stay with our little one so easy and comfortable. The apartment is very modern equipped and we didn't miss anything. We even have been welcomed with a wine bottle and some food in the fridge. The stay is a 15min walking distance to the city center and next to it is a big shopping center with supermarket. We can absolutely recommend the stay and if we ever come back to Tavira this will definitely be our stay once again.

Fantastic Service

We really appreciated how attentive Collette was to our needs. Her enthusiastic flexibility with our check out time was tremendously helpful and much appreciated. The unit itself was exactly as advertised - no unexpected surprises. We were even pleasantly surprised at how close this property was to central Tavira. We walked everywhere! A great place to stay while visiting Tavira.

Collette was absolutely amazing so helpful and nothing was to much trouble. My only concern was that some of the windows didn't lock, I know this wasn't a problem as we were on the second floor but it did keep me awake the first night. Lots of lovely touches left at the apartment, milk, tea, coffee, bottles of wine and beer which was so lovely. Beautiful location and all within walking distance. My only concern is dropping off the key at the end of our stay, maybe this needs to be looked at.

Wonderful Apartment

This is a wonderful apartment. Location is perfect - nearby cafes and restaurants, leisurely 15 min stroll to centre of Tavira. Easy access to main road should you wish to visit other towns. Vehicle and pedestrian gates so completely secure. Apartment itself is outstanding, pictures dont do it justice. Light and airy, sparkling clean throughout and 2 balconies - so choice of sun or shade. All the furnishings, equipment,linen and towels are of highest quality- a refreshing change for a rental property. The biggest plus is the caring owner, Collette. Communication before and during stay is exemplary, Collette answers e mails immediately. She clearly wants all her guests to enjoy the apartment and surroundings as much as she does. We have been self catering in the Tavira area for many years, this is the best by a country mile, would highly recommend.

Very clean, nicely decorated, safe & easy parking, great balconies (sunny/shady). 10 minute walk to lots of bars & restaurants. Very walkable, barely used our car. A nice perk, a huge Saturday market sets up across the street once a week. Most importantly a host who answers inquiries within minutes.

Gostei muito do alojamento, mas têm que ter alguma atenção com a zona da piscina, principalmente relativamente ao piso. Tem zonas em que a madeira do chão encontra-se degradada. Sendo uma área comum ao condomínio deverá ser uma preocupação de todos os proprietários.

Wunderbarer Aufenthalt

Die Wohnung ist genau wie auf den Bildern abgebildet und hochwertig eingerichtet. Sehr bequeme Betten und Klimaanlagen im Wohnzimmer und den beiden Schlafzimmern machen den Urlaub zur Erholung. Die Wohnung liegt in der zweiten Etage mit Aufzug. Es gibt sehr gepflegte Aussenanlagen mit einem großem und sehr sauberen Pool. Die Schlafzimmern kann man vollständig verdunkeln. Die Kommunikation mit der Eigentümerin ist hervorragend, sie antwortet schnell und sehr freundlich. Die Sauberkeit ist ebenfalls exellent. Wir kömmen gerne wieder.

the apartment was very accurately described. very modern and new. easy walk to central village and to shopping center. next to school and municipal pool. on site parking. only complaint is that the security lights in the surrounding buildings make it bright all night. you have to roll down a metal shade to darken the bedroom. well stocked kitchen. thoughtful touches of spices, essential papers and a bottle of wine!. thank you

Relaxing Week

This apartment was lovely. The location was very good - an excellent supermarket about two minutes away and a nice walk into Tavira town centre, it was super clean and bright. The host (Collette) was very quick to respond to an email which I sent her asking if she was able to help us with bus and train locations within the town. I would have no hesitation in recommending this apartment and when I return to Tavira this would be where I would choose to stay. Thank you Collette.

Fantastic stay

Everything about the apartment was perfect and as described. The owner couldn’t do enough for you. Any queries were answered within the hour before and after our arrival. Nothing was too much for her. We are able to check in 2 hours early as our flight arrived at lunch time. Would highly recommend. Quiet apartment only 10 minutes walk to the centre but a few local restaurants round the corner which was great. Tavira has loads of places to eat and drink across all price ranges. We went in for 2 weeks in September.

Why they chose this property

I love the location with its close proximity to Tavira town centre and the apartments modern well appointed facilities as it is brand new. The underground car park is particularly useful for keeping the car cool and avoiding parking charges. The pools are very nice and balconies being being on the top floor provide a view of the sea and Tavira

What makes this property unique

Having pools so close to the town centre and being able to pop in and out of town easily as it is such a short distance.
Also the supermarket is nearby.
