Vacation rentals with a pool in Tavira

The property was exactly as the photos, high quality and in first class condition. About 20 minutes walk to the river and Tavira centre. Very easy access to main roads leading to explore the Eastern Algarve. Gisela was quick to respond and always clear, helpful and friendly

Villa Mariana is a gem of a place, with the most fabulous and genuine owners that made our stay so welcome and enjoyable. We chatted to them, and enjoyed the stories of years gone by in the real Portugal. We also found out that Jose, Pedro's father, was a very talented artist with drawings and painting going back decades. The big highlight of our stay was the wonderful swimming pool, which we had exclusive use of. Sun loungers and a Gazebo to sit around the pool and have a cold beer or wine were very welcome too. We found that getting from Faro airport to Villa Mariana, was a small challenge, as Uber didn't recognise the address that we got from Pedro. So we took a Taxi to the Lidl supermarket at Sao Bras, where Pedro then picked us up in his car. This worked very well, but if Pedro is not there you will need to have a clear address, and take a taxi. Also, trying to get an Uber from Villa Mariana is impossible, so stick to genuine Taxis that are very good value. We had a great time !!

The house is very nice with a great pool and plenty of space! The location is very nice with great views of the mountains and the sunset. You can make great day trips by car to e.g. Lagos / beaches. You have a lot of privacy on the premises and can really relax. We only had problems with the fuse every now and then! Maria is very reliable and responds quickly if there are any problems. Highly recommend this place!

A beautiful big, brightly designed house on a large property. Located slightly outside of Tavira, therefore very quiet and a rental car is a great advantage. In the house itself, there was everything you needed to take care of us there for a week. Overall it was clean and nicely decorated. The kitchen is large and very well equipped. Also the laundry room and washing machine were very well maintained and clean. The fact that each bedroom has its own bathroom is also very beneficial.

Fabulous house to spend a few days with the family. Great outside space. Super-equipped kitchen. Super considerate host and always available.

Great little country home with lots of charm! A stone’s throw from the beach. Great swimming pool and gorgeous view! Many thanks!

The villa had everything we wanted - with separate decking areas for different parts of the day depending on if you want sun or shade. All the hosts, Alex, Mildred and Emay were lovely and so helpful. We arrived very late after a long time at Faro airport (now that is a nightmare) and our sat nav initially taking us in the wrong direction, but we rang Alex who guided us in and didn’t fuss that we were late. The pool was great - we had an early August holiday so the dip was what we all needed every day (and night, it was beautiful for a midnight swim looking at the stars). We met both dogs who were very nice, and Lou, the big one, was super cute - my girls loved him! We often ate at home and the gas job and electric cooker was perfect for this. The air con was just what we needed too - so happy to have that to cool down. Didn’t use the TV as it was so lovely sitting outside enjoying the peaceful surroundings and sounds of the cicadas. Couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to stay.

We had a lovely stay at the villa, everything was as described in the listing. The villa was within easy driving distance of local spots to visit. Despite 4 days of rain and a power cut during our stay we still managed to get out and about and had a great time exploring the area, you will need a car though. The host was responsive to any questions we had during our stay. Would not hesitate to book again or recommend.

Perfect stay! The apartment and the outdoor area were very clean. Great pool and cool apartment. The apartment was equipped with everything necessary. Tiago was very helpful, friendly and accommodating with all questions. We can 100% recommend this BnB.

The apartment was perfect for our stay in Tavira. Pleasant living room, fully equiped cooking area (dish washer, washing machine, microwave, lots of cups, plates and cutlery), nice bedroom with comfortable bed. The balcony is south facing so gets morning sun for breakfast and evening sun for dinner. It is about 2 km fromTavira centre so is easily walkable. The apartment is very conveniently located - about 30 minutes drive from Faro airport and there are a number of attractions within 30 minutes drive.

One of the best Airbnb’s we have stayed in. It’s a very modern apartment in a historic building, the conversion was overseen by an award winning Portuguese architect. The pool was amazing. It’s a perfect place to explore Tavira only a few minutes walk to the centre . The apartment feels like a home from home.

Joana's apartment had everything needed for a fantastic holiday. We loved the swimming pool once we got used to the fact it was unheated, and it was cleaned every morning and was amazingly refreshing in the hot weather. We knew it was a little outside Tavira and this probably meant it was less expensive than others. We loved the supermarket a few steps away and sat outside and had 2 coffees, a large sandwich, and samosas for lunch sometimes (8 euros total!) before heading to the beautiful beaches on Tavira Island, Cabanas, and Cacela Velha. The beach mats and sun umbrella provided were very useful for shade. We planned to hire a car but when we arrived at Klass Wagen (booked through Stress Free Car Hire) we realised they were scammers and tried to add massive extra, unnecessary costs and became threatening etc,so walked away losing our deposit. Ubers are very cheap so after a shaky start to the holiday we had a wonderful time.

I just returned from Tiagos place.. and already booked a winter stay. Golden Club has a superb location, free water taxi to the nearby beach on the adjacent island, excellent pool facilities, winter and summer, and friendly helpful staff... but some very mixed reviews re their apartments locations, views and cleanliness, which are generally allocated on arrival. So I decided to book Tiagos apartment and know exactly where I was going. Great Result! Its a wee bit decor/equipment tired, but its a fairly big one bedroom apartment, tiled floors, easy clean, and the highlight is its in a quiet location in the resort, close to the deeper outdoor pool, and indoor pool, has all day sun on the balcony, is not affected by the noise of bars or evening entertainment, ( off season anyway) has decent wifi, a well equipped small kitchen.. and everything works . When there was an issue, Tiago was on it right away, rang me, friendly , helpful, sorted. Recommend.

Lovely spaceous appartment, spotlessly clean, everything you need, wonderful location.

Excellent stay. We spent the entire month of February 2025 in this apartment. The place was exactly as shown in the photos. All of the appliances worked well. The size is perfect for two people, but maybe a little tight for more. The neighbourhood is great, but we would recommend having a car. There is a small grocery store on the corner but the bigger grocery store down the street is a better option. There is a better selection of food there, and a really good selection of wine at great prices if that is your thing. One can walk into the centre of Tavira I about 20 minutes, and it’s a lovely walk, but you’ll probably want a car to go to the bigger grocery store and a bit farther afield to visit the neighbouring villages. Tri and Alex are excellent hosts. Communication before, during and after were outstanding. We were even invited to pick oranges and mandarins in their orchard. What a wonderful experience. Tavira is a wonderful little town. We will definitely return here in the future

The apartment was perfect for a stay with our 8 month old, had 2 bedrooms, high chair and even some toys which he enjoyed! The pools were lovely, and the ability to walk to lots of places to eat and drink was great, also lots of takeaway options on Uber eats! Made our evenings nice and relaxing after the baby went to bed. You had to take a boat to the beach, which with a baby was a bit daunting, but when you got there it was very well set up with a board walk for the buggy the whole way to the sun beds basically The stairs down to the apartment were a bit annoying with the buggy, would have been handy to exit the apartments at the gate we could clearly see at the end of our row of apartments, but not too much of a problem Nice to have the place cleaned half way through, kitchen well stocked with everything you’d want

We had a fantastic family holiday at the luxury Lara's Villa. Bruno and Ana have made it a perfect place to stay with wonderful attention to detail. It's easy driving distance from Tavira and local attractions. It was so relaxing to come back and enjoy the swimming pool, relax on the terraces or play in the huge games room. The villa is above the motorway with a sea view beyond. There's a small amount of traffic noise, but not enough to spoil enjoyment of the secluded location. We especially loved watching the sun set over the hills.

Great hosts with a beautiful property. We loved our stay and hope to be back in future. The hosts were very responsive, the property was immaculate, the location was both secluded enough to feel very private but close enough to local amenities to get out and about if we wanted. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

We loved this beautiful, spacious house. The private pool is amazing and the house has everything you need, including a baby high chair and a crib. The kitchen is really well-furbished! It was perfect for our family. It's just a few minutes walk to a gorgeous beach and lovely seafood restaurants, but super quiet. The only thing that was missing was a way to lock the door to the pool. It would have made us feel safer to know that the kids can't get out to the pool on their own.

Very few places are better than you expect when you get there and this was one of them! We spent our 2024 Christmas in’s Sally and David beautiful home - Thank you, for a great stay! The house was spotless, and their thoughtful touches including the Christmas tree made us feel right at home. Such a lovely home with plenty of amenities and enough entertainment to cater for all ages. Overall, our experience was nothing short of amazing. We cannot recommend this property and its location highly enough.

What a fabulous host and fabulous place to stay, right in the heart of the Algarve. Lynn is a fabulous host and totally looked after us. Our 3 year old fell ill before we arrived and Lynn was so helpful with everything we needed including great recommendations for local doctors. Her home is beautiful, super comfortable, with every amenity one would need. 5 minute walk to the beach and amazing beach restaurants. Will definitely stay again. Highly recommended. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
