INTERIOR
This stunning apartment is a feature of a traditional triangular shaped building perched on the edge of the River Gilão. Access to the apartment is by stairs, with a street entrance and a private apartment entrance on the second floor. The internal décor has been recently refined combining a wonderful mix of old and new characteristics, where modern tiles rest against traditional combined with polished wooden floors. From the entrance hall, enter the heart of the apartment with rooms radiating from every angle. A dining table features as the focal point, where the hallway melts into the lounge with its elegant furnishings and riverside window views with sunbeams bouncing from the river and illuminating the room. 3 bedrooms are neatly positioned at each point of the triangular building design, adorned with traditional furniture and feature fitted wardrobes, sharing a large walk-in, glass paneled shower room, with large mirror and attractive features. At the rear of the apartment, the kitchen once more blends the old and new, as modern appliances are contrasted by beautiful Portuguese tiles.

And meanwhile, sunworshippers can take the stairs to enjoy the wonderful sunny roof terrace and relax on the sunbeds, or choose to settle into one of the comfy sofas to read a book or enjoy a tipple or two!

The apartment at the Old Roman Bridge in Tavira is exceptionally well situated to enjoy everything the town has to offer. It is accessed by two flights of stairs which do have railings. The apartment is well-fitted out and very comfortable. The roof terrace which offers a view over the town. There is a full bathroom in the unit, a half bathroom just outside the kitchen and another half bathroom on the terrace level in the room with the washing machine. There is some noise at night which is to be expected due to the location. Rachel at Smartavillas provided great information and support. We really enjoyed our holiday right in the middle of things.

No better location than this place. Bed was comfy, kitchen perfectly functional. Dining room is more like a hall with a table in it but we ate out most nights. Good value apartment given the location.

A really beautifully located and charming quarter in the middle of the old town. The roof terrace is a really beautiful place to take part in the evening city life (with some distance). The view is a treat!
