Charming Tavira
We stayed from mid-January to mid-March, 2024.
This apartment has a very compact, modern kitchen, lovely bathroom, and great outdoor space. The decor and the view from the master bedroom down Rua da Liberdade to the old bridge is the stuff of fairytales.
The inclusion of Canadian and US TV channels in the cable package was a wonderful bonus.
You can walk to anywhere in town so a car is unnecessary except for touring the rest of the Algarve. The trains are excellent and frequent, and connect to almost everywhere. The station is a 10-15 minute walk, and another 2 minutes to the Lidl grocery store.
The heating is less than ideal on cold winter days, although the high ceilings are probably great in summer heat. Be aware that there are 27 steps from street to the main level and 17 more to the master bedroom. (Good for working off gelato! - Try Delizia gelato, across the old bridge and a couple doors to the left Much better than the place just before the bridge.)
We really enjoyed our stay in this apartment that was a great mix of old and modern styles.
