The Algarve region
The Eastern Algarve is still relatively undiscovered as a major holiday destination and so Cabanas retains all the charm of a little fishing village. Cabanas is full of enchanting streets and is a living, traditional Algarvian community. The village is active all year round. Fresh fish meat and vegetables can all be purhcased locally. There are several supermarkets and bank link machines. Splendid beaches, restaurants and a multitude of leisure facilities. Stunning views from the cliff -top walk. Historical sites to visit locally are Estoi (palace), Milreu (Roman ruins) and the nature reserve.
TAVIRA Cabanas is located just two miles from the beautiful town of Tavira; a bustling fishing port with a variety of restaurants, roman architecture, markets, vineyards and seemingly endless beaches.
Tavira, otherwise known as ‘The Little Venice of Portugal’, in the 1500’s was a port of great strategic importance. The events of that period have left an enduring mark on the layout and appearance of the city. There are more than 15 stunningly designed churches and chapels throughout the city, each with its own story to tell.
Tavira also owes its appeal to the river and its reflections, to the changing nuances of the light and the special atmosphere of a town built on the water’s edge. In Tavira the traditional crafts can all be seen including the distinctive wrought ironwork and the Portuguese tradition of lace-making.
Locally caught fresh fish, grilled on an open fire the traditional way, is an obvious choice in any of the many restaurants combined with the red wines of the region.
Average annual temperatures in this part of the Algarve range from 16° - 31° Celsius, just one of the reasons why tourists from Europe keep coming back.
Cabanas / Costa de Cabanas area
21 Costa de Cabanas is in a prime location in Cabanas, 3 minutes walk from beach front. This beach is accessible by boat, which ferries people to and fro all day long from April to Oct for 1Euro return. The beach has it's own cafe bar, changing facilities & toilet. Parasol, sunbeds, ski and paddle boat hire are all available.
Located in Cabanas de Tavira the surrounding lands of ‘Aldeia de Forteleza’ are protected by a preservation order allowing this development a guarantee of privacy and seclusion. Cabanas is quiet, yet not isolated, and is bursting with an old-style character that will appeal to even the most seasoned tourist.
Cabanas is a traditional village and you can walk along the palm tree lined road along the bay taking the opportunity to dine at one of the many cafes or restaurants which overlook the sea. The village is also a few minutes drive from the bustling market town of Tavira which is steeped in history and known locally as the Town of Churches as there are 22 churches in the locality! The town rests either side of the river with shops, cafes, bars and restaurants along the beautifully cobbled streets.
Cabanas is also only a 20 minute drive from the Portuguese/Spanish borders and you can drive across the magnificent suspension bridge across the River Guadiana to view a traditional part of Spain where many Spanish choose for their holidays. You can enjoy the best of two beautiful countries in one holiday! There is a Railway Station at Conceirçao (10 minute’s walk from the apartment) from which you can travel the length of the Algarve from Vila Real De Santo Antonio, a historic market town renowned for its linen on the Spanish Border, all the way to Albufeira.
From the station at Vila Real, you can walk to the River Guadiana and catch the ferry which runs every 20 minutes across to the picturesque Spanish town of Ayamonte.
Cabanas is ideal base from which to sight see, play golf or simply enjoy a relaxing holiday within a very friendly comunity. It is a beautiful place and one to which you will surely wish to return.

The Monte Rei Golf Club is set in the picturesque foothills of the Eastern Algarve, with sweeping views of the Serra do Caldeirão mountains to the north and the Atlantic Ocean to the south.
The first of two Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Courses - "Monte Rei North" - will open for play in June 2007. This par 72 Championship course measuring 6567m from the Tournament tees is a truly unique design; with water coming into play on eleven of the eighteen holes, the course features an enjoyable series of eight par-4s, five par-3s and five par-5s in a challenging and distinctive layout.

"Cabanas is a lovley place for a holiday the people are so friendly..the beaches go on forever"Phil & Jimmy
Review submitted by John Paul from Haydon Bridge (Submitted: 31/08/2007)
"We had an absolutely fantastic time. The apartment was lovely, and the air conditioning an absolute godsend! It was certainly the nicest place I can remember staying in and the apartment was excellent value for money. Cabanas is a nice town, with everything in easy walking distance and with many very good restaurants. I would recommend this place to anyone, and hope to go back and stay there again."
Review submitted by JULIE from PORTLAOISE, IRELAND (Submitted: 22/07/2007)
"Just returned from this lovely apartment. The photos on the website don't do the wrap around balcony justice - and great views from the Roof Terrace. The village was gorgeous - not very 'touristy' - with many very good restaurants. Try MARISCOS & PETISCOS, GRELHA PEIXE, and O PEDRO. The daily market although small has everything you need. The next village - Conceico - is less than 10 minutes walk. From here, you can catch a train to other parts of the Algarve. The walk to Tavira is only 30 minutes, although along the very busy EN125. Great location for seeing the Eastern algarve - would definitely recommend this apartment! "
Review submitted by Sarah from Chelmsford (Submitted: 10/08/2008)
"A lovely apartment with superb balcony and roof top terrace. A very short walk from the sea front where you pick up the ferry/fishermans boat to take you to the beautiful beach. The swimming pool area is great for children, but we preferred the interest of the beach. There are many restaurants to choose from, but be aware that many look like simple snack bars, and do not initially look very enticing. However, the food served is generally excellent and great value for money. A great apartment to visit for a complete break in a more traditional Portuguese setting."
Review submitted by Noreen from Dublin (Submitted: 09/08/2008)
" The property is of the highest standard and its location is excellent. The wraparound balcony is a real bonus, as is the roof space. We would recommend this property to anyone seeking a comfortable and relaxing holiday."
Review submitted by Matthew from Berkhamsted (Submitted: 17/06/2008)
"The property was in fantastic condition and was a delight to stay in. We made full use of the Barbecue, wrap around balcony and sun terrace. The situation is a short walk to the font and is close to the supermarket and shops. We hired bikes from the office below the apartment and found "Maria" and others there to be very helpful and friendly. The communal pool was very clean and was used evey day...we WILL be back!"
Review submitted by Margaret from Hampshire (Submitted: 03/07/2008)
"We were very happy with the apartment, the description was completely accurate. It was home from home only with lovely weather! It was very relaxing, I enjoyed laying by the pool and the sun terrace was lovely late afternoon. I would definitely recommend it to friends and hope to visit again some day."
