The location is very nice, we were situated right next to the walking path which leads to the beautiful beaches along Tavira. It is not 'walkable' into Tavira, but if you have a car and are looking for a little community away from all the tourists, this is the place for you. The place is a little funky, it felt like a summer camp. There really isn't a couch in the living room, but two additional beds, which was odd. The kitchen had the dishes you need, but you need to have all your own spices, oils, etc. The room didn't have wifi, but we were able to rent a router for 1 euro, which worked really well. We had a nice little yard, which was great for the dog. We ordered pizza and salad from the bar, which was excellent!

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!

Tavira is definitely one of the most picturesque and unspoilt towns in the Algarve. So far, it has escaped the mass building of apartments that now plague other places. But, unless you have a car, I'd recommend staying in the centre! Local transport is not very convenient, though trains to other towns are good. There's lots going on, though perhaps more geared towards adults than youngsters! Plenty of restaurants and cafés and the Clube de Tavira is a good spot for some local jazz on a Thursday. Bear in mind it's not directly on the coast - you need to take ferries to the islands nearby, but that's fun if the weather's good. Not so much if it's wet and windy 🙄. Bike rental is another good option. Another plus is being so near Spain - a trip to Seville is only a couple of hours away! My tip - if you're not with a car, don't stay on the outskirts, unless you just want to be by the pool all day! It's a long and boring walk into town! Do visit the little olive producer just out of town. At time of my visit, nearly the whole town was undergoing roadworks which meant half the streets were closed to traffic and all the cobbles and paving were up, making for dusty and uneven surfaces. Just beware!

Nice town in a very concise area.
Nice town in a very concise area. Catching boat from the downtown dock is better value for the trip to visit the beautiful "Ilha de Tavira Beach" (Tavira Island Beach), worth spending time there. Don't drive into the city, either walk or catch a Uber. Too much traffic and the endless road construction works mess everything out. Look it up on Google before you head that way as there are many more activities you can enjoy.

We stayed for one week but really could have stayed longer, but a week was enough for us to feel relaxed,enjoy the beach and the surrounding areas. Tavira is a pretty historic town with lots of amenities , great restaurants, bars and cafes with tourists but not tacky! and lots of day trips available. It’s a great walking and cycling area And the beach is truly magnificent. .

Tavira will typically draw those, who seek the architecture, history - it's idyllic and peacefull setting; and the beach second. Tavira has a trainstation,, so you are free to come and go without the hassle of traffic and foreign signs. This town will not attract the crowds who seek the plastic pleasures of Albufeira.

The best of Algarve !
The best of Algarve ! Near the mountains - several beautiful beaches; beautiful and safe city ; excellent restaurants - including an excellent 1 star Michelin restaurant - that you can walk to confortably
The hotel is a beautiful converted old historical house in Tavira right near the castle, a short walk to multiple restaurants, the river and access to the beach ferry. The rooms are beautifully decorated and comfortable. There are common lounges, areas to sit and play cards and a roof top sun area. Each morning we ate breakfast on the terrace under umbrellas in the sun. The breakfasts were amazing with fresh pastries, croissants, fresh fruits, local cheese, local charcuterie and coffee. We didn't want to leave.
The hotel was stunning, beautiful artwork everywhere. Mário was really helpful in providing local food recommendations and nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was great, my children loved cake for breakfast!
There was nothing to fault about the hotel at all, the small pool made a great “plunge pool” as it was unsurprisingly not warm in February!
Tavira is a lovely town for exploring this part of Portugal, with Fuzeta and Olhao not far too.
Could not recommend this hotel enough to anyone.
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 hotel is perfectly located in Tavira for restaurants, shops and the boat to the beach and the room gave me everything I needed for one night. The bed was really comfortable and the room was clean. The bathroom had a walk in shower and the towels were very good quality. There were lots of options at breakfast: oat milk as well as normal milk, lots of different coffees and teas, different cereals and breads as well as scrambled eggs.
we stayed a whole week in the one bedroom apartment, lovely place, spacious apartment with a nice outside open air space to sit or put washing out etc. staff were great, even lending us beach towels which was handy as were traveling with just cabin baggage. any request was no trouble at all, id definitely stay here again , the location was fabulous, and found it good value compared to other properties or hotels in the area
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
Amazing lofted room with tons of space - very comfortable, beautifully decorated and immaculately cleaned. Access to 2 beautiful semi private patios. Location was incredibly convenient! Staff was extremely kind and helpful with restaurant and activity recommendations/room and parking logistics. Our favorite room that we stayed in while in Portugal!! 10/10 recommendation!
Everything. This place was absolutely perfect. It is a very relaxing location, but also close to great beaches and Tavira. The rooms are very comfortable and well decorated, not to mention clean. Excellent breakfast (especially the orange juice), and last but not least, a very professional and kind staff. This was one of the best stays I ever had.
Friendly staff and efficient check-in. Lovely room, good size. Quiet with blackout curtains. Balcony and fridge. Beds clean and comfy. Kettle and tea bags in room (unusual for Portugal), but no milk supplied. Large bathroom with walk in shower.
Breakfast 7.30-10.30 - good selection of hot and cold food.
It’s all the little details that make this guesthouse a 5 star experience. Breakfast, light up mirror in the bathroom, amazing smelling soap in the bathroom. The staff goes out of their way to help you plan your trip as well and give great tips about Tavira and the surrounding areas.
Very pretty, historical property. It was clean, comfortable with a nice bed. Bathroom was spacious and it had a nice little kitchen. It is the most spacious apartment we’ve had in Portugal. Staff is friendly and helpful. Plenty of free parking on premises.
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!
Excellent breakfast selection and staff very welcoming, helpful and attentive. Hotel within a short walking distance of local restaurants and amenities. Tavira is a good base from which to explore the Eastern Algarve.
We enjoyed getting the ferry to the island to enjoy the beautiful beaches. Breakfast was adequate with plenty of choices. Pool bar was great, good cocktails and snacks. Hotel in quiet location away from town.
It is very beautiful And tasteful, like a 'boutique' style hotel.
The pool and surrounds are lovely.
Nice simple breakfast on the terrace.
Easy access to Tavira and all the restaurants to eat
Fantastic hotel. Lovely staff. Great rooftop bar. Lovely breakfast. Just a short stroll into Tavira old town. Great parking.
I could not fault this hotel, and we will return
This was the best accommodation I stayed in while in Portugal it was immaculate with a great outdoor space and fantastic location it was very well looked after.
