We had a really good time in Portugal !! The apartment exceeded our expectations, it was perfect. We loved the nature and the superb weather. We are already looking forward to our next holiday in Tavira. Rudy and family. ( Belgium Aug 2007)
It is a lovely property and we found it an ideal base to explore Tavira and the Algarve. Our week in Portugal was relaxing and a lot of fun. We enjoyed ourselves immensely and much of that was a result of staying in such a beautifully furnished and well equipped apartment. We all agreed that it is one of the nicest places we have ever stayed. Jackie - Exeter November 07
We are back from our holiday in Tavira. We always enjoy the Algarve, but this holiday and the stay in your apartment was particularly enjoyable. G Robinson- Nov 2007
We enjoyed the journey, especially Tavira. Your apartment is excellent and we felt like at home even from the 1st day we were there. The town is peaceful and beautiful and the people are very friendly, although we could not communicate in English. The information you provided is sufficient and we found all the markets and supermarkets. We spent a warm Christmas there. Ming and family. Hong Kong Dec 2007
Just to say thank you and what a fantastic apartment you have, your pictures in your advert do not do it justice. It was like staying in a 5 star apartment. Would recommend it to anyone. Garry Diane and family July 2008
