The staff were amazing! Super friendly and attentive throughout the resort, the entertainment staff are fantastic - Noah still misses his "amigos". The rooms are clean and comfortable. Dining at the hotel was a delightful experience with diverse and delicious options. I’m confident your stay will exceed expectations and provide memorable moments.

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.

Tavira is full of character and has an obvious love of its history and heritage. It offers the opportunity to have a beach holiday without it being forced upon you. Wander down all the back streets and find new places.
We mostly self-catered but there are many restaurants with differing cuisines. Take a punt - it will probably pay off. If you like octopus take a trip to Santa Luzia just 3km away. It is a charming fishing port and the octopus catching centre of Portugal

We've become familiar with Tavira after several visits over recent years. It is a lovely understated destination as a living, breathing 365 days a year town. Not at all touristy, though popular and busy, it's a great base for a sunshine and beach holiday as well as easy access to Spain and onwards. A wide spread of bars and restaurants gives plenty of choice for evening entertainment, and all within short walking distance.

Tavira is a little gem of a town. There are tons of things to see and explore. People are friendly, the food scene is beyond incredible and the city is completely walkable. If you're looking for a small, quite, charming town then Tavira is the place.

Tavira is a very relaxed and beautiful place to visit, the atmosphere was friendly and there were lots of restaurants for all budgets. We were there at the end of April and the temperature was ideal for us, in the low twenties. The beaches were easy to get to and huge so even in high season I think they would be fine. You are a short train ride from Faro and there are other lovely villages nearby to visit. Plenty of walks and bike tracks for the more active mostly all on the flat so not too energetic! This is a resort for couples and families rather than those looking for lively night life but for us that was a positive!
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.
For the location and views alone, it would be hard to beat Residencial Mares. Directly opposite the ferry service to Tavira beach and with some of the best restaurants all within less than 5 mins walk. The view from our river view room was remarkable and the staff could not have done more to welcome us and make our week in Tavira so special. Our room and the hotel itself is characterful and the decor whilst not modern is very clean, we slept very well in the large bed with no noise. Excellent value for money
Stunning hotel , best location as in a cute square surrounded by lovely restaurants and cafes within a 1 minute walk from Roman bridge and centre of Tavira. Beautifully presented rooms and stylish ,artfully presented breakfasts with delicious baking / cooking and service, tranquil yet friendly.Every single team member went out of their way to be thoughtful , friendly and considerate- really top level .Run to book here, it’s truly an oasis of quality and style. Plan to return 🌻
The location is close to A22 and a short car drive to the city center. Vinci and his colleagues were among the best we’ve encountered within Portugal. They were always eager to meet every guest’s need with a cordial smile and “Can Do” willingness. We appreciated the large variety of breakfast items and the co-location with the O’Tacho restaurant for lunch and dinner. Hotel Don Rodrigues and it’s many amenities provided a most relaxing 4-day holiday for us.
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.
We liked everything about this property. We needed a place to relax after a busy 6 days touring around portugal and the OZADI was perfect. There are food and drinks available close to the pool. Poolside was very relaxing. Our room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. It had a nice balcony with view of the pool. There was a great selection of food for breakfast and the roof top seating has spectacular views
Fabulous hotel in very relaxing surroundings.
Great shuttle bus into Tavira centre available Wednesday through Sunday.
They will provide you with fresh towels daily for taking to the beach 🏖️
Waiting staff are so friendly and helpful.
The hotel gave us a number for the local water taxi it's the nicest way to travel and you can be collected from the hotel's private jetty.
This small hotel is lovely. The breakfast was delicious and the breakfast room has a beautiful view over Tavira. The staff were extrememly accommodating and friendly. Two rooms have balconies and two rooms have terraces. If these are important features for you, I would call the hotel directly to ensure you have the type of room you want.
Away from the main drag but very close to everything (especially an excellent restaurant round the corner). The ferry to the island beaches is near. No need to have a car if all you want to do is go to the beach.
Very nice staff. This is a bed and breakfast rather than a hotel but it a good place to stay in the centre of Tavira.
Hotel is in a great location, close to Tavira town, easy to get ferry across to the beautiful island, walking distance to bus station. Staff are super friendly, welcoming and helpful, hotel itself is beautiful with a lovely pool and grounds. Breakfast was plentiful, great choices, attention by Chef at all times.
Really nice location, beautiful views at the beach and a very quiet spot away from town. Direct boat access to Tavira Island was convenient. Walking trails around the salinas were an unexpected bonus, especially if you’re into birding (great birding in October!!)
Great location in Tavira, right on the river, with easy access to Beach Ferry. The hotel has a certain charm about it, and the owner is wonderful. Beach towels were available for our use, another plus. We had a small balcony to get some sun.
Love this hotel, staff amazing, roof top bar a luxury after a day at the beach, breakfast always good. Piano player is a bonus. Been here several times. Will always return.
This boutique hotel is very quiet, clean and well managed. The staff was very helpful. We discovered it is only 8 minutes to town, easy and inexpensive to get a ride via Uber.
Cosy and clean. Host is very helpful. In fact, Jose was one of the highlights of our visit to the Algarve. He is so positive about Tavira and the local region.
Rustic Portugal construction. Beautiful grounds pool tennis court. Nice staff, exceptional. If you are looking for an experience you have it here. Very clean
