We had a great time in your lovely apartment in Tavira
The excellent reviews we saw prior to booking were well justified, the apartment was very comfortable and spacious and with the development being quiet, we were really able to relax and enjoy our time In such a lovely location.
It was our first time in the Algarve for nearly 20 years and we couldn't have chosen much better. It's a highly recommended from us!

We stayed at the apartment in June 2019 and had a wonderful first family holiday abroad with our 2 year old son, Cian. The apartment and the complex were perfect for our needs, very quiet and relaxed. Cian really enjoyed the freedom of the green areas in the complex and the kiddies pool. We managed the steps on the walk into town fine with the buggy but they are quite steep.
Helen was great to deal with, all communication was really clear and she provides great detail about the apartment and Tavira.
Tavira is beautiful with the great restaurants and beaches being the highlights for us.
We hope to make a return trip and would thoroughly recommend the apartment.
We greatly appreciated your residence, it is very comfortable, very well equipped and well located. The communication with Helen was really easy and pleasant, she guided us to the residence and referred us places including a restaurant where we spent one of the most beautiful nights of our trip. The condo's location allowed us to enjoy a beautiful swimming pool and to sit comfortably to read and rest. We loved our stay thanks again for this great opportunity, we look forward to welcoming you. "

Had a brilliant holiday in this apartment, It was spotlessly clean & very comfortable with all modern comforts. Lovely quiet family orientated complex. Perhaps if travelling with toddlers who can't swim, keep the door locked as it is a ground floor apartment & there isn't any fence around the pool. This wasn't an issue for us as our youngest is 7 & is a competent swimmer. This is a great location to stroll down to Tavira centre. We had a lovely relaxing family holiday & would definitely recommend this apartment to a friend.
Stayed at the apartment for the last week in September. It is absolutely lovely - very comfortable, and has every mod con you could ever need. Made lots use of the swimming pool, which was great to cool off in after a day walking around the town or at the beach.
Helen was fantastic in the lead up to the trip, supplying us with recommendations for and directions to restaurants, things to visit and the local supermarkets. This made our lives much easier for the holiday!
The only thing I would say is that for anyone who is mobility impaired, access to the town is difficult, as the main pedestrian access involves a lot of steps. For us that wasn't a problem - working a bit of exercise into our holiday definitely did us good!
10/10, would recommend this apartment to anyone looking to stay in Tavira.
We stayed in the apartment in late August. Only good things to say about it. The apartment was very comfortable and had everything you could possibly need. Just outside your door there was a large green area if sunbathing is your thing. The apartment had sun loungers for you to use. The swimming pool was perfect. And never seemed busy even though we were there in high season. It is a quiet group of apartments. The apartment is about 15 minute walk away from the city centre. There are steep steps up to the apartment but only for the last five minutes. Nothing that we couldn?t handle. Tavira itself is a charming old town. We ate in quite a few restaurants. The waiters were lovely but not in any way pushy. We ate in both the Italian and the Portuguese restaurant very close to the apartment and they were lovely. All in all we had a lovely holiday between the apartment and the town.
The management team were great, Denise showed us the way to the apartment and we arrived earlier than usual as the apartment was ready for us, which made for a relaxed start to our visit! The apartment is really well designed and beautifully decorated with art and ornaments. The facilities are excellent too - I think they have everything you would need in the well stocked kitchen and the lots of games, DVDs and even beach toys that our family appreciated! There were also helpful touches such as hand soap and toilet rolls in the bathrooms, and beach towels which were really useful! The property is well managed and lots of useful information is provided. It feels like it is well loved by the Raffertys and we could understand why, it is such a sweet apartment with large well appointed rooms located around a little courtyard, which creates light as well as outside space. In the grounds are the large swimming and paddling pools and lots of green space and beyond these the riverside walk into lovely Tavira. There are a lot of steps or a long winding route down to the river which we just about managed with our toddler (sometimes with the buggy) but this could be too much for older visitors - there is good car parking though! We only stayed for a few nights at the end of our holiday, so it wasn't really long enough - a good excuse to go back! We did manage to eat at D'Gusta (luckily a storm held people off that night, but they wiped down some tables outside after the rare rain shower) and we enjoyed their tapas at this popular and busy restaurant, over the other side of the blue bridge. We took the boat to Tavira beach and our older boys also enjoyed the futsal pitch close to the bus station. We are very appreciative of Helen and the family for letting us stay in this fabulous holiday apartment and to their excellent management team for their help and flexibility. We love Tavira and this is a great apartment, which we hope we get the opportunity to return to!

We just returned from Tavira we discovered thanks to Helen and Kevin. It was perfect through the exchange has many contacts by email throughout the year; Thank you to Helen for his availability and made multitudes of information.
We enjoyed the comfort of their luxury apartment in a quiet residence and very well maintained; our children have especially appreciated the huge hot pool at the foot of the apartment
Tavira is probably the most beautiful and authentic small town in the Algarve; the ideal situation also allows to discover the southern coast of Portugal since the extreme south west is only 1:30; it is also in Tavira we experienced our best culinary moments with excellent restaurants with unbeatable value for money.
In short, miles thank you to Helen and Kevin for giving us this unforgettable holiday ....
