I like Rick Steve's a lot, but his hotel Rec's are a bit on the scimpy/cheap side for my wife. We found the perfect solution through Trip Advisor in Tavira, Portugal. Tavira House is a great location and better than the options Rick offers for Tavira, Portugal. It is at most a 3 minute walk to the river and main... More

Wished we could have stayed longer! Loved the little town of Tavira and our room at the Tavira House. Staff was very helpful, directing us to free parking, where to catch boat to the beach on the island, and suggesting places to eat. Had we known how wonderful Tavira was, we would have stayed a week instead of two nights.... More

This beautifully renovated house in a small side street in Tavira is a very well kept secret. From the minute you walk in you can tell that a lot of money has been spent on bringing Tavira house into the 21st century and it has been done with a great deal of taste. We stayed in the top floor suite... More

We were pleasantly surprised by this hotel. A welcome cocktail upon your arrival, a beautiful and clean room (Buganvilia) with air conditioning (a must in August). There is a great rooftop terrace which we would have used more often if we weren't enjoying air conditioning in our room. They have a really nice breakfast with fresh juices and offer towels... More

We decided to book Tavira House and in particular the Fucsia Room (fell in love with that bathtub). The only problem was that we didn't have enough time to enjoy the room and house. Staff were amazing with us and I would and will recommend to my friends who want to visit Tavira! Keep up with the good work!

Pros: - Great location - Clean - Large room - Air condition that really worked well. - Large safe - Really good breakfast Cons: - No private balcony/terrace as described in hotel/room description. - Narrow, steep stairs to the room and...

Hate to niggle over such a beautiful property but we stayed in Geranium at the top of the property (most expensive) and feel that considering the price and quality of the house we should make a few adverse comments. There is access to the roof terrace from the room and we appreciated that but it is just one small corner... More
