The pool and pool area were amazing and moder and never too busy. The room was tidy and clean with a lovely bathroom and big shower. Breakfast was a really good selection including for vegetarian options, and really well presented with some variety across the week. Shuttle service to town was very helpful. The restaurant/bar area was beautiful overlooking the pool and surrounding areas. Overall feel was very modern, well looked after and a high service level

A charming town and free from high rise apartment blocks or huge hotels. Full of character and interest. The beaches are close by and a few can be accessed by ferry about 15 minute ride away. Others by bus or uber.
A few restaurants really hit the spot: Come Na Gaveta, Pausa, O Castelo and Artefact.
The castle is worth a visit and most places are walkable. Comfortable shoes a must as the streets are cobblestones.

A lovely town with great restaurants and bars, shops and some lovely old buildings. Good public transport links - train, bus and boat - to nearby towns, villages and beaches. It can be busy, but it has a nice relaxed atmosphere.

Tavira is nice, but the stones polished by decades of cars and foot traffic made the sloping sidewalks/roads feel almost treacherous. This is not the location to get away from freezing rain. Some of the old area in the east side is undergoing upgrades to the water system, which means it may be dusty.

Cute little city full of 70 year old tourists.
Cute little city full of 70 year old tourists. Few restaurants other than Indian food. Little shopping. Beaches nice but very difficult to access. Pararia do barrill involves street parking then walking a half mile to a train which will take you 1 mile to the beach for 2eu each way. Or you can walk on a slanted broken walkway all the way. At the beach there is one overpriced restaurant.
Overall Tavira is Not family friendly at all.

We are scoping out retirement options so were looking for walkability and reliable public transportation. Tavira offers both! Local market is full of fresh meat, fish, fruits and vegetables along with wares such as baskets and cut flowers. Lots of restaurants and shops. Walking distance to train which we took to the eastern border then hopped a ferry to Spain for lunch. We opted out of the hotel breakfast and found a cafe across the river for coffee and avocado toast one day, another day we went to the Pingo Doce grocery store for coffee and a breakfast sandwich. We tried a different restaurant for dinner every night and every meal was fantastic. If we had to do it over again, we would not have rented a car. The metro, train and bus system is reliable and comfortable as well as much cheaper and less stressful.

Loved the Friendliness in this nice quaint old town, unfortunately the roads / streets were in process of being dug up & left rather unsafe ( we witnessed a lady falling).. lots of cobbled streets which were left unfinished. Hopefully they will complete soon for travellers & residents to enjoy this lovely town.
Hotel is absolutelly fantastic. Located on top of the hills. Beautifull view. Countryside. Orange trees. We walked through them. This place have special energy. Silence. You fill so relaxed. Other people who come to this place were positive, polite, friendly. Hotel staff is so kind. They pay attention to each visitor. Super kind and positive people in restaurant. All of them. At breakfast, lunch and dinner. We filled so welcomed here. Delicious food. Excellent dinner. Definitely will come back on my next trip to Portugal.
So charming peopel running this! I came there in the evening and it was just a welcoming athmospher. Though i wish i was in a more social state of mind myself, it was just what i needed. Mark were amazing in his way to connect and push me in the right amount in the yoga. And it might have been a tip i got from him that acctually saved my health. Next time i go visiting portugal i will bring my daoughter to go see them so she can feel this atmosphear. AND they have a dog Sultan!! and he is amazing! he likes to be brushed.
Quinta Almargem Lusitano was very beautiful place to rest. The host and her husband made us feel like part of the family. Impeccably clean and the food was better then we received in many restaurants! Fresh juices each morning from their own grown fruit trees. Fresh egg from the chicken on their farm. A relaxing environment to rest, pool to swim and 5 minute drive to the center of Tavira! The beaches on the strand are very comfortable and renting chase lounges w/ sun shields out of Barrell wee great!
Great location. So much to see and do. Best beaches around Barrill , short taxi ride to bridge to access the beach. (sunbeds quite expensive 19 euros for 2 beds and an umbrella) . Isla de tavira a short walk from the hotel to a ferry 2.2 euros return takes you out to Isla de Tavira. White sandy beach. Boats very assessable and regular. Tavira has some excellent restaurants including some fine dining. Lots going on. Also visited fuzeta beach (short train ride from Tavira station (also on to faro town)
Miguel senior and junior were delightful. They served us excellent breakfasts and kept us entertained with their knowledge of Tavira and Portugal in general. This was a small place but very well located for bus and train stations. Lots of restaurants around too. The property had a lovely roof terrace which we enjoyed using.
Fabulous little place and amazing people running it. Even took us to the station when we left. Miguel and Miguel thank you both for a wonderful time in Tavira.
Well equipped kitchen, good shower, the location cannot be better, comfortable beds, quiet and efficient air conditioning. We like to have breakfasts on the rooftop terrace with a view of the sunrise, river, Roman bridge and old town. There are trays in the kitchen to take the breakfast to the roof. Also terrace is good for drying the cloves. Free parking lot is 400 m up river. Hotel is close to many good restaurants and to the beach ferry. The mangers are friendly and helpful.
This is a surprisingly large hotel - you'll get your steps in for the day just walking to your room and back! The underground car park is free and also massive. We parked near the entrance and then discovered it was a long walk to reception. And it was a long walk from here to the dining room. But the room (view over the pool) was large and had all the necessary facilities. It was only a short walk from the hotel into the centre of Tavira.
The staff is wonderful! They are always ready to give indications, take care of any last minute request.
Really loved these ladies. The one on the night shift is especially kind.
The hotel is close to the river and port, so it's a short walk to catch the boat to Tavira Island.
There is a big supermarket close to the hotel, which revealed to be a bonus.
The "movida" of Tavira is close to the hotel, like walking distance close.
The hotel is by the river in Tavira, which is a lovely place. We stayed on a room only basis which was fine as there are lovely cafes and restaurants just a short walk away. The ice cream at the cafe next door is delicious too. There is a supermarket a short walk away and more shops on the other side of the river. There is a ferry which runs several times a day which takes you over to a beautiful beach for a small fee.
A family run small hotel with personal service. the town has grown up around the Quinta but once inside the gates you can relax and enjoy the grounds, the small pool and the tennis court. the breakfast is substantial.
it’s a leisurely modestly downhill walk to the center of tavira and the Roman bridge. a very good restaurant that they recommended Avenida is an easy five minutes away.
The staff were friendly and incredibly helpful. The hotel decor was fresh and the room was a good size and spotlessly clean. Bed was big and comfortable. The breakfast was very tasty with a good selection. Not far from Tavira and nearby beaches by car. I was there for work and enjoyed my short stay.
It was very central to Tavira. Lovely clean hotel. Staff were very friendly and made us feel very welcome. Complimentary drink for all the family on arrival. Lovely swimming pool. Breakfast was plentiful and very varied and it was lovely to sit up on the terrace to enjoy the beautiful views
Exceptionally clean, simple and quiet accommodations. Brother and sister team handling front desk were very, very kind. Highly recommend. Brother is an Architect and sister an Attorney so very good contacts should you be considering a move to Portugal!
The people are so nice in Portugal, they love to help. I thought I was lost but wasn't, and asked for help, A lady spoke to my host in Portuguese and pointed to my apt, , just across the street, and the host was standing there waving his hand.
This hotel is a dream - the taste level and attention to detail is very very high. It feels truly boutique, from the art to the breakfast served in vintage china. I can't wait to go back! It's also right in the middle of Tavira, yet so quiet.
Super complete and great breakfast, nice pools and space around it, cosy room with balcony, very clean, with wonderful view to the sea and sunrise on it.
Would and will recommend this hotel to friends who visit Tavira.
Love the location, authenticity (you feel like you are in Portugal) and ambience. All staff are very helpful & friendly. Good that you can hire beach towels. Breakfast is excellent with a good variety.
The location is the best. Right on the river at the ferry landing to the island. The breakfast was the best of all the hotels we stayed in over the course of 16 days. Our room faced the river.
Tavira is a very charming town. The location of the hotel is excellent and a quick walk to the center. The breakfast was fairly good. This hotel is not as rich in decor as others in the group
