The Algarve region
The Algarve is the southernmost region of Portugal and it's one of Europe's favourite holiday destinations well known for glorious year round sunshine and excellent sandy beaches.
Located on the tip of Europe with the vast ocean of the Atlantic as its southern and western border, this enviable position gives this region possibly the most unpolluted climate in the European continent.
Tavira / Mato Santo Espirito area
One of the oldest and most picturesque towns in the Algarve, Tavira has a quiet, friendly ambience and makes a pleasant place to stay. Along the coast, Santa Luzia is a seaside town with a fine tradition of octopus fishing.
Just inland, there is a fine Renaissance chruch at Luz de Tavira. Tavira has many cultural events throughout the year including; music in the churches during the winter months with many excellent musicians; antique fairs and book fairs throughout the summer; a gastranomy fair with stalls to sample local food; science museum; many historical churches; concerts; sailing events and many other things to do and see.

Ideally situated for relaxing family holiday, close to long beautiful beaches, which are very child friendly. Chairs and sun shade are provided to take to the beach.
5 golf courses can be found within 15 kilometres, including Monte Rei and Quinta de Ria.
The apartment is in heart of the Rio Formosa nature reserves, as well as close to the Tavira forrest and Castro Marim reserve. I have seen eagles flying over the hills to the rear, and the area is well known for bird life, in particular flamingoes.
Tavira is a beautiful town centre for a holiday, set around a river with cafes and restaurants along the river front. Apartment is slightly outside of town centre, but taxis of an evening back to the apartment are quite cheap if you want to leave the car at home.
Further details outdoors: Apartment is set on a small development 1.5 km from Tavira. There is a bus service stopping nearby, but a car is recommended if first time visiting.
The underground car parking is accessed by remote control and the lift is taken from the garage area, so it feels very secure. In addition there is an enclosed small garden where the pool is, and toilets, showers and changing rooms adjacent to the pool. The area is overlooked by the back balcony, making it easy to watch over children. There is a children's play area near by. In addition there is video entrance for security and excellent neighbours. There is a cafe about 100 yards away, and next door to that is the deli with fresh bread daily. 2 restaurants and a cafe with take away service are within 250 yards.
