Accessibility
There is a lift from the garage to all three floors of the building (basement to roof terrace).
Outside
We enjoy the largest roof terrace in the condominium which overlooks the communal garden to the rear of the building. It's a fabulous place to sunbathe and relax in the glorious Portuguese sunshine! Well equipped, we can provide you with five sun loungers, a table and 2 director's chairs, 3 white garden chairs, 2 deck chairs, a sun sail and a barbecue all for your exclusive use.
The front balcony is great for watching the world go by in the evening shade and the rear balcony a bright sunny spot for taking your early morning coffee and reading the newspaper!
Close to the apartment is a small children's playground.
Coast/Beach
The nearest beaches, all of which have the coveted EEC Blue Flag status are great for families and couples alike. There's gently sloping soft sand and allegedly some of the warmest water in the Algarve! Beaches on the Isla de Tavira and can be reached by ferry (around 2 euros return) or water taxi. It is a 10 minute walk to the ferry stop through town. If you are driving or taking a taxi then Barril Beach at Santa Luzia, Cabanas, Manta Rota and Praia Verde beaches are worth a visit.
Golf
Tavira is a popular place for golfers as it is within easy reach of five quality golf courses - Benamor (the closest) Castro Marim, Colina Verde, Quinta de Cima and Quinta de Ria.
Travel
The apartment is approximately 30 mins drive from Faro Airport on the A22 - a relatively easy journey. There are several car hire companies with collection available at Faro Airport. Taxis from the airport to Tavira cost around 45 euros or you could take a taxi to Faro railway station and get a train. There's also a shuttle bus service from Faro to Tavira which costs around 8 euros per person. We can advise on car hire and can help with booking taxi /shuttle transfers - please ask when booking.
Distances
A gentle stroll along the cobbled streets into the centre of Tavira with it's churches, a castle, camera obscura and the river Gilao takes around 10 minutes. The nearest beach is a 10 minute ferry ride from the centre of town. The Western Algarve is around 45 minutes away on the motorway as are fabulous family water parks such as Zoo Marine and Aqua land. You can be at the Spanish border in 40 minutes on the train.
Further details
Tavira is a beautiful town which has carefully blended the modern with the old. There are many niche shops, cafes and restaurants serving delicious and inexpensive locally sourced food and others serving as outlets for local artists' products. There are plenty of banks and cash points, a post office, supermarkets (Aldi, Lidl and Pingu Doce) for those who want to self-cater and great food, antiques and bric a brac markets close by. In the summer months you can stroll along the river and enjoy the communal entertainment in the town square. The irish bar on the riverside also regularly hosts live bands. The train service is cheap and reliable if you want to travel by public transport along the coast.

...'What can I say fantastic appartment, super help on arrival and George and Ellia in the local bar were super hosts. We both liked the fact that it was out of the centre but yet only a short walk into town, the island is something else and the next time we go we will be spending a bit more time there...'
