Swim-up Rooms & Private Pools in Tavira

Pedras da Reina has a wonderful pool, a good bar bar overlooking the pool , it is in a great location near the centre of the village , the apartmant has lovely private outside space. There is pleasant shop on site

Spacious complex with a good size kids pool and main pool. Stairs in accommodation were tiled and very steep and narrow but other then that they were well equipped and clean

Good location less than 10 m.walk to waterfront. Development looking a bit tired in places but clean and well run. Staff all very helpful if not overly cheerful. Pool area not really sufficient for size of development. Could do with second, adult only pool.

Fabulous complex & apartment. Clean and well-appointed accommodation. There could be a steep flight of steps to your apartment, so check that out beforehand if it is likely to be an issue.Staff are excellent, very helpful, and friendly. Great location with complimentary tourist train( you could walk it's only 10-15 minutes)and then short boat ride to cabanas beach. The pool & cafe on site are very good and not expensive. We didn't try the restaurant as buffet style & not to our personal taste. Very good selection of restaurants & bars within a short walk . Most have really good live music a couple of nights a week.

Det er ok! Personalet er imponerende imødekommende, høflige og meget villige til at hjælpe. Værelset/huset havde hvad man forventer, men bærer præg af at have en del år bag sig. Sengene er utrolige hårde, måske standard i Portugal. Områdets faciliteter var super. Pool, tennis padle - vi brugte det hele:-) Vores ophold var med halvpension. Overordnet set er det i gen grund til at beklage sig. Maden fejler absolut intet, men udvalget er til den begrænsede side. Når det er sagt må man bestille fra deres menu kort, hvis dagens menu ikke findes interessant - og det et top service.

Asked you for two villas near each other, one with a pool and one without, however this is not possible. The pool villas are entirely separate. We were supposed to have been informed about this but we were not.. Luckily they had a pool villa vacant close to the other one and they let us have that. I think it was you who were supposed to tell us as they did not have our email address. Otherwise everything was good pwith our holiday in spite of a worring start. And at 80 plus years old you don't want that !

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Parking was beside apartment. This accommadation was great. A very clean spacious apartment. It had everything we needed to use. This was our first apartment on our holiday in Spain and Portugal. There was a great supermarket in castro marim. In hind sight we would have stocked up on small butter cubes and individual laundry washing powder sachets. Only place in Spain and Portugal we saw them! Had a nice big clothes rack. It was a nice location out in the countryside. When we were there in October, there weren't many other people around so very quite. Sadly this meant bar facilities at golf club were closed the days we were there. We went along to Tavira which was a great day trip in car. We also checked out the fort at castro marim which was interesting and had great veiws. Only 1 entrance so make sure you know where to head before you end up doing a lap of whole hill in the heat!!! We enjoyed using the pool. We had views overlooking the pool area through the pine trees. Very relaxing. We would return here.

the house was exactly like the pictures, very clean and comfortable. The pool is big and chairs were available the whole time. The house was very close to the pool, which was great. The site is very quiet, ideal to relax. The distance to the beach is manageable if you travel with a car.

Located just short of the border with Spain, and about 40 minutes from Faro airport, this is part of the Algarve yet to be over developed. Very quiet location although it must be noted early May isn't height of the season! Staff were extremely courteous and helpful; when we arrived our villa wasn't ready (they have 2 & 3 bed villas as well as villas with pools) so we were offered a drink whilst we waited; after 15 minutes we were escorted to our villa (which is necessary if your first visit because quite a way from the reception) and very impressed with the standard of accommodation. Unfortunately the main clubhouse is currently being refurbished but from the outside looks very elegant; the temporary clubhouse is functional but it would be unfair to judge Castro Marim G&CC on this as they are obviously working very hard to get the work finalised as soon as possible. For a golfing holiday, family break (fabulous beaches only 10 minute drive away) or just a few days away in the sun this is an ideal location. We will be back!

Resort is very nice, house was great, pool and snack bar also very nice. There is no cleaning during stay but it was ok. I was surprised trash cans for plastics, glas etc were locked and they provided information they dont use it. I have seen sorting trash cans almost everywhere in Portugal but here it was just "for image". There is almost everything in house but no thing lke tablet to dishwasher. You have to go to reception and buy one... But overall it was very nice stay and I can recommand it to everyone.

This is a beautiful hotel with so much attention to detail having been paid to decorating it. Stunning inside and outside. Loved the private plunge pool. Fabulous breakfast and charming staff, and a short walk to great restaurants and bars.

It’s character, charm, peacefulness. Excellent staff, good facilities. Room was fresh clean and stylish opening out onto a tiled/ lawned balcony area with plunge pool which made it feel intimate

The hotel is beautiful. It is thoughtfully designed, with modern amenities and also reminds you of its history. It made for a luxurious stay without ever feeling stuffy, which we really appreciated with two young boys. The staff is welcoming and helpful, and the food is delicious. Our room with the “children’s bedroom/playroom” on the mezzanine and the private pool on our patio was just amazing. The baby could be inside napping and the rest of us enjoyed the beautiful weather. We’ve recommended it to everyone since we got home!

The staff are attentive, friendly, very good at English, and will go out of their way to provide anything you ask for. The breakfast was amazing each day, and the rooftop patio was the most wonderful space to have a glass of wine and unwind in the evenings. The decor is simply beautiful. A lot of attention went into each detail, and it shows! We loved the patio on our room as well. The loungers provided were quite comfortable and the plunge pool was a good size (although very cold...it is not heated!).

Beautiful small boutique hotel. Beautifully restored and decorated. Stayed in one of the rooms that open on to small garden with plunge pool. Felt like our own private place! Perfect location for centre of Tavira. Staff were exceptional and make this hotel the wonderful place that it is. Thank you to everyone who looked after us. We will definitely be returning x

A great place to stay for a few days. Very friendly staff and lots of animals to see. A bit of a mini zoo. The room was okay. Nice small swimming pool and child pool also.

We just LOVED everything! The place, the family and owners, the animals, the Croquet team players, the farm, the swimming pool, the meals, etc, etc, etc But the thing we liked the most was the concept of the Centre. The reason why was created, to whom was created, how it is managed and the happiness that brings to those who have the opportunity to stay @ the Centre. It over passed my expectations by far. You followed your dreams allowing others to have the opportunity to follow theirs as well. That is a wonderful mission! You are such a lovely family THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT SERVICE AND THE WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE. ❤️. You may be sure we will come back over and over again.

We chose to stay here due to the proximity to a wedding we attended. We were blown away by the site, its mission and the wonderful staff, not to mention the small zoo with a small collection of very healthy and happy animals which you can tour with the staff. The site is set up to cater to families with children with special needs but regularly takes bookings from anyone. There is also a swimming pool, ample breakfast and various entertainments for families including table tennis and table football. We loved it here and will be recommending a stay to several families we know.

We stayed here to be closed to Faro airport on leaving Portugal and really enjoyed out stay, we would happily recommend this guest house especially to families with young children. The air conditioner in our room was effective and pleasingly quiet, bug mesh on the window, fully accessible showers and a kettle in the room. The small pool is warmed and perfect for relaxing in, kids will love this place. Lots of walks through the lovely grounds looking at plants and many exotic animals. There is a lovely welcoming atmosphere, very relaxing.

Natural surroundings, animal tour, swimming pools, kitchen facilities

The pool ! Although all the property was perfect, the pool was the deciding factor. It's a clean good sized pool with an outside shower. The villa overall was spacious ( especially for the 2 of us! ) and all rooms were large and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and again large. Outside all 4 sides had seating opportunities to either avoid or find the sun. The locality is made up of villa type properties so felt safe and peaceful. Parking is on the property safely. We have a small car and it was a bit of a tight fit. Parking elsewhere not a problem at all and loading/unloading can still be done outside the property safely. It's not a busy through road. It's a comfortable 20/25 minute walk into the town for restaurants. Not a brilliant walk but ok, well lit etc The boss man is friendly and approachable and helps with any issues. We had none. Remember he needs a 200 euro deposit. He collects on arrival and gives it back on checkout no probs. Thoroughly recommend. Give our regards to Trump the floating thermometer Donald duck.

The villa is beautiful, clean and very well equipped for 8 people. The pool area is spacious with umbrellas and sunbeds, it has a lovely upper patio with comfortable soft chairs to relax on. There is another area with seating and a barbecue. Location for us was perfect as it felt safe and quiet but only a 15/20 minute walk to Tavira which is beautiful with lots of places to eat, shops and access to the ferry boat to the beach. The friendly owner met us on arrival to show us around in person and let us know that if we needed anything we could contact him directly. We would highly recommend the villa and would love to return!

The location was very peaceful. A short distance from Tavira. The villa is immaculate with a good size, clean pool, well-kept patio, garden, and BBQ area. Spacious outdoor area, complete with sun loungers and shades. The kitchen is very well equipped for preparing meals and entertaining. The living and dining rooms are spacious and cool. The bedrooms were comfortable with plenty of hanging and storage space. On arrival, we were met by our excellent host, who was attentive and responded quickly to any messages. The villa was very clean and welcoming. Parking space is on site. We enjoyed our time at Villa Balsa and recommend staying here.

Beautiful villa with everything you need. Great hosts, sent us restaurant recommendations. Shops and bakery an easy 15 minute walk away, as was the walk to restaurants and the ferry for the beach. At the Villa itself lovely clean large pool, plenty of loungers and sun umbrellas, BBQ, multiple places to eat around the terrace and inside. Good air con in all bedrooms and living room. We came with a baby and they provided high chair and baby cot. All brilliant, would come again in a heartbeat

Property was spacious and clean. A quiet area close to local mini mart and shopping plaza. Few minutes drive or 20 minutes walk into town. Pool area is great, plenty of sun loungers and outdoor shower to cool off.

The house with the Poole and this amazing view were perfect! The Beach in Villa Nova de cacela has a volleyball Field and is only 20 minutes away!

Casa da Sina is a truly exceptional place to stay. The property is unique in style and the grounds are extensive and beautiful. We loved the pool, the myriad places to explore and relax within the garden, and the incredibly well-equipped and designed kitchen. The owner Paulo gave warm communication and super helpful tips, and everyone who tended to the Casa was friendly, professional and very keen not to disturb our stay in any way. The stunning sunrises and sunsets were the icing on the cake! The location is fantastic - close enough to beaches, towns, shops - but secluded enough to allow you to feel totally away from any hustle and bustle. We will miss this slice of paradise and hope to return very soon!

Quelle propriété incroyable ! Si vous recherchez un petit coin de paradis au calme, isolé sans être trop éloigné des magasins et activités/plages, n'hésitez plus. La vue est splendide. La maison est équipée de tout le nécessaire et plus encore (niveau cuisine, ustensiles, électroménager,...). La piscine est très agréable, et les innombrables chemins sinueux du domaine emmenant chacun vers différents endroits aménagés en extérieur (ou sous un dôme pour le billard) sont magnifiques a parcourir. La communication avec l'hôte (très aimable) est on ne peut plus simple, les réponses aux éventuelles questions sont données dans des délais très courts. De très bonnes recommandations également pour ce qui est des restaurants. Nous reviendrons sans hésiter.

We have just returned from a week stay and had a wonderful time. The villa is an amazing and we feel very lucky to have stayed here for the week. The villa is stunning, well equipped, set in fantastic grounds and located in a very quiet location. Paulo was a fantastic host too - helping us with all our questions and suggesting great local restaurants and beaches too. An amazing villa, great hosts, and a week to remember!

A beautiful property, excellent communications and a garden that looks like it was designed by Derek Jarmin - stunning.

Exceptional hosts and equally awesome property. Loved the sunrises and sunsets. Highly recommended

The pool area is really clean and direct access to the beach. The good part was there were not almost no kids so you could relax next to the pool without screaming etc. Variety of different dishes for breakfast and dinner with a wine bottle offered by the hotel. Recommend you to reserve the free spa with a Turkish bath and sauna.

Very friendly greeting at reception, plus we’d been upgraded. The room was excellent with an exceptional shower room. Fabulously comfortable bed and pillows. Fantastic views of the beach & sea from our room. Very good buffet breakfast, wide choice of food available. Pool area was lovely - very clean & sun beds always available. Pool was perfect temperature.

Der Empfang im Hotel war freundlich und der Checkin verlief relativ unkompliziert und schnell. Der Gesamteindruck des Hotels war gut und gepflegt. Klar, es gibt Hotels die weitaus moderner aufgestellt/eingerichtet sind. Für uns war es leicht über unseren Erwartungen. Unsere Zimmer waren sehr sauber und wurde auch täglich sauber gehalten. Der Außen-/Poolbereich wurde auch täglich gereinigt und aufgeräumt und das Wasser im Pool war sauber. Das Publikum war eher im oberen Altersdurchschnitt, gefolgt von Familien mit Kindern - für uns passend. Das Frühstücksbuffet war ausreichend und qualitativ gut, jedoch ohne abwechselnde Speisen. An der Snackbar kann man Mittags eine kleine Auswahl an Speisen zu sich nehmen - Preise vergleichbar wie in D. Das Abendessen wurde nicht probiert, da wir auswärts gespeist haben - es gibt einige Möglichkeiten in unmittelbarer Nähe. Sehr gut hat uns der Weg zum Strand gefallen, welcher sicher über Holzstege verlief und gepflegt war. Der Strand an sich ist super und sauber. Es können Sonnenschirme-/liegen angemietet werden - 18€/Tag. Wir haben uns 20m weiter direkt an den Sandstrand gelegt - hier sollte ein Schattenspender mitgebracht werden da keine Bäume/Palmen/etc. existieren. Uns als Familie hat der Aufenthalt gut gefallen.

The only hotel in this area, established for many years. Access onto the beach from the grounds within a short walk. Considering the hotel was full it did not feel over-crowded (fairly busy at meal times). Cleanliness of the pool & surrounding area was second to none. Buffet style evening meals (or a la carte option), and breakfast, did not disappoint in variety, selection or freshness. Old style Portugal, unspoiled local area (but within a taxi drive, or long walk, you can access other towns which are perhaps ‘more vibrant’, but that wasn’t our choice, we loved the simplicity of where this hotel is, the fresh fish and beautiful sandy beach. All rooms have a sea view (and you see the fishermen out each night catching their wares). Fabulous.

The Eurotel is one of those rare locations where you find yourself coming back for a second or even third time. It's well situated within a very short walking distance to town center where you can find a variety of restaurants. The facility has a great pool area with food and bar service available and if you prefer there's a lovely beach just a few minutes away. You won't be disappointed in the facilities and the staff are attentive and helpful whenever you need them. A great place to relax and enjoy the sun.

Amazing staff throughout. We had a suite with a plunge pool - bliss

Perfect in every way! This is what 5 starts looks like! My husband and I were traveling for our wedding anniversary, and our Secret Suite was perfect--the private pool, the patio, the concierge, the breakfasts...it was all heaven. The hospitality is warm and down-to-earth. The food at the restaurant is amazing--including amazing vegetarian dishes. The resort includes different activities like yoga, cocktail-making classes, and wine tasting. For an unforgettable experience in the Algarve, don't hesitate--book this now!

A beautiful hotel with beautiful grounds. The staff were very helpful and attentive although the Maid Service was erratic. I had to ask for pool towels as they weren't replaced for two days and on one day the room still had not been cleaned at 4pm. However when I brought the matter to the attention of the Reception staff it was rectified immediately. I thought the pool bar food rather expensive and did not eat at the Hotel's Gourmet Restaurant as I thought the prices were excessive. We were never sure when the Pool bar would be closing as on some occasions it was open until late and on other occasions closed at 7pm.

Turning off the road and into the Vila Monte entrance the view and lushness was amazing. The road up to the reception has a practice golf course either side and gives a great first impression. The resort is spacious but with a small number of superior rooms in 'villas' or suites spaced well apart so often felt like our own personal villa. The normal sized rooms are in 2 storey villas but again not crowded. We had a 'superior' room in a single floor villa (5 rooms total) and a good pool directly outside. There are 3 pools in the resort available to everyone. We went in the 'low' season but even when busy I doubt it would seem crowded. You really do need a car as the restaurant is both expensive €130 for 2 with wine) and limited menu choices - but it is absolutely excellent Michelin star quality so we ate there twice and drove to Montcarapacho, Fuseta or Olhou on other days. The staff were all really friendly and helpful - another couple decided to stay an extra 3 days and Carla (Manageress) took care of the flights, car hire and room changes for them.

Exceeded our expectations - friendly and welcoming service, complimentary champagne reception at the pool bar, spacious & comfortable air-conditioned villa-style accomodation. 4 different pools throughout the resort with plenty of shade & seating. Romantic dining by candlelight in the Orangerie terrace, with superb locally produced food, overlooking the countryside with views of mountains & sea. Fantastic place to get away from it all, especially for couples, about 30 mins drive from Faro airport. Worth every cent - would love to visit again!

It is a family run business and Claudia and Miguel couldn't be more helpful if you need anything. There is a beautiful roof terrace with sun loungers and also shaded areas if it's very hot. You have views over the whole of Tavira. Downstairs in reception there's a kettle and you can help yourself to complimentary coffee and an assortment of herbal teas. There is also a large fridge where you can keep your drinks chilled and any food you buy and a cupboard full of crockery and cutlery. There are excellent restaurants just outside your front door and also Bishop's Square where they have music and sometimes a market . Or if you just want some peace you can sit in the perfectly kept garden and watch the world go by . When I stay at LAGOAS I feel I'm in the authentic Portugal. Thank you Miguel and Claudia

Perfect hotel for a short stay in Tavira; just minutes away from all the life in town as well as to the ferry to Tavira beach. The room was clean, bed was comfy and the price very competitive. Would definitely stay again on a next short trip to Tavira.

Absolutely perfect. The room was spotlessly Clean. Everything we needed. Friendly staff. Beautiful terraces where you can sit and look out over the city whilst having a quick quiet drink. Perfect location near restaurants and shops. Would definitely stay again.

The staff were very friendly. I arrived before check in and, as the room was ready, I got the key. The location of the hotel is in the city centre. The room was very clean.

The hotel is just charming. We loved sipping port on the rooftop decks from the comfortable couches, looking out over the city. The host is very accommodating and welcoming.
