The Algarve / East Algarve region


The Eastern Algarve is a beautiful and unspoilt region of Portugal. With it's fantastic Blue Flag beaches, great golfing, peaceful countryside, open roads, hardly any crime, inexpensive fresh food and drink, a truly relaxing pace of life, relatively short travel time and consistently fine weather (on par with California). It offers the ideal environment for a relaxing holiday. Why not visit Cliff Richards Winery near Guia, or the F1 Autodromo Racing Circuit at Portimao.Call the owners or visit their website for further information. For further current information on the area visit ' tavirauncovered.com.'
The Tavira / Mato Santo Espirito area
Tavira itself is very picturesque and a proper working town, rather than a purpose made 'tourist trap'. It is regarded by many as 'the best town' in the Algarve, having lots of charm, many churches of architectual interest, and a vibrant ' cafe', and restaurant culture. It is still an active fishing port - lots of wonderful fresh fish - and has a lively cultural scene during the summer months.As the Algarve has a similar climate to that of California, this makes it perfect for a year round holiday location. There are several top flight golf courses within a 15 minutes drive of the apartment. The Spanish border is just 20 minutes away by car or ferry. Monte Gordo has a lively nightlife with a Casino, and is just 15 minutes away.Numerous castles & forts are located within the area at Tavira, Silves, Castro Marim and Cacela Velha. The Tavira Grand Plaza Shopping Centre is now open, and provides some fifty shops, twenty restaurants and four cinemas. This is one of the best shopping and entertainment experiences in Portugal - and it's right on your own door step. Please visit our own Relaxx - ltd.com website for more interesting details.

The apartment was exactly as advertised. Lovely, comfortable and well equipped. Although we stayed from 18th to 28th December the weather was very kind to us reaching 20 degrees C on a regular basis which allowed us to explore the algarve. The apartment was ideally positioned to explore but a car is essential even to get into the local town of Tavira. I am sure in the high season it would the ideal time of year to make more use of the facilities available to as standard. |

Loved the property, very well stocked with everything you need. lovely patio and seperate balcony. Lovely bar and food opposite at Anna's. Car hire recommended to see the area and it is a good walk into Tavira. Lots of wardrobe space and English TV if you want to watch. A & S Blackburn |

We have just returned home from a weeks break in the glorious Algarve, where we stayed at Peter and Helena's excellent apartment in Mato Santo Espirito. If you want excellent accommodation, where you can be assured that everything you need for a comfortable stay is provided, then this is the place to book. We love the eastern Algarve, and Tavira in particular, and with this being our 3rd stay at the apartment, we feel we have found the perfect base and hosts for our visits to the Algarve. Already looking forward to break number four ! Ian & Jean |
