Accommodation
Description
Cosy apartment perfectly placed in the centre of historical Tavira town, nestled amongst shops and a tempting array of restaurants. Situated on the second floor of a private building, balconies front and back overlook the river and a traditional cobbled street. The well-appointed rooms offer a comfortable stay providing the perfect destination for guests wishing to enjoy a combined beach and town holiday, with the ferry to the golden sands of Tavira Island departing from the nearby harbour.
---
Access to the apartment is by stairs, with a street entrance and a private apartment entrance on the second floor. Tucked neatly at the back of the apartment are 2 bedrooms, 1 king size room with ensuite shower, and a twin room with use of a separate bathroom with bathtub. The long hallway melts into the lounge, with comfy sofas giving room to relax, read or watch TV. Alongside this, a separate kitchen, fully equipped for home catering, has patio doors leading to a balcony running the length of the apartment, ideally positioned to enjoy breakfast in the morning sun. In contrast, the bedroom balcony overlooking the traditional cobbled street and the Taviranese rooftops provides a welcome respite from the daytime warmth offering the perfect spot for a pre-dinner sundowner, after a hard day at the beach!
PARKING AND ACCESS
This is a private accommodation and guests will be able to access all advertised areas and use all advertised facilities. The apartment is 2nd floor, top of the building with 2 flights of stairs. There is no elevator in this building. Car parking is on-street, with no charge.

The house is very nice. The location is perfect because its close to the center (5min walking) but in a street really quiet and next to the accesses to other locations. Rachel and all the team of Smartvillas are careful and friendly. Great stay!

I would give it 3.5. Luckily I had a car as it’s quite a distance out of town to the apartment. Not comfortable for walking back to alone at night, necessitating a cab. Also one of the heating units did not work so it was rather chilly some nights. see more
I would give it 3.5. Luckily I had a car as it’s quite a distance out of town to the apartment. Not comfortable for walking back to alone at night, necessitating a cab. Also one of the heating units did not work so it was rather chilly some nights. Better instructions for the washing machine are needed for people unfamiliar with European settings. Also, the condo was not sound proof. Neighbours are easily overheard within the unit. Overall it was very clean, the bed was comfortable and the unit in good shape.
