There a variety of reasonably priced restaurants and bars serving both traditional Portuguese and international fare to suit all tastes and pockets. The daily fish and general market serves as its epicentre with the old Roman bridge dating back to the Roman occupation. The town developed by the Arab occupation and was conquered by the Portuguese in 1242. By the 16th century, Tavira served as a major port in the Algarve

2nd Visit to Villa Laurinha

A family holiday with our 2yr old grandson and his 3 month old sister (and their parents of course). The villa was as we remembered it from our previous visit in 2017 with our other grandaughters.. The villa is well equipped and beds very comfortable

Fantastic villa!

Just returned from a family holiday at this beautiful villa. We had plenty contact from Paula with directions and times and she met us there. Facilities were excellent and everything thought of to make a great stay. Rural location so car needed which suited us perfectly. Very modern and stylish decor inside and great pool area. Would highly recommend and hoping to return.

Top quality villa with excellent fixtures and fittings, great outside space and pool.

Great holiday. Local village and town of Tavira are within easy reach and are great for coffee's in the day and restaurants at night. Complemented by a lovely.spotlessly clean, well equipped villa with lovely terrace, gardens and pool. Terry was very helpful with information ahead of arrival and Jane was a great contact during our stay and was always available for any help we needed. A great villa and management team which all contributed to an excellent holiday.

Fantastic set up, great location

Only half-hour ish from the airport, 15mins drive to pretty much any local attraction. Property was very large for a 4 bedroom place. It was well presented, modern and in good condition. The traffic noise seemed to fade in the afternoon (which may be down to wind or heat or something else sciencey). It bothered us at first but then we forgot about it. Would definitely stay again.

Fantastic holiday in a beautiful villa with a pool!

We had the pleasure of spending our holiday at this wonderful accommodation in Portugal, and it was simply amazing! With a group of 7 people, we had an unforgettable time here. The villa offers everything you could wish for a relaxing holiday. The pool was definitely the highlight for us! It was clean, well-maintained, and the perfect size for swimming a few laps or simply relaxing and soaking up the sun. The house itself left nothing to be desired: spacious and comfortable rooms with cozy beds, a well-equipped kitchen, and a large outdoor area where we often enjoyed barbecues and meals together. The attention to detail in the décor is particularly noteworthy – it’s clear that a lot of thought has gone into creating a welcoming atmosphere. A special thanks to Terry, the host, for making our stay so enjoyable. The communication was excellent – friendly, helpful. We highly recommend this accommodation – whether for a family vacation or a trip with friends. We would definitely come back!

Wonderful villa

It is a large villa, the quality is so good you can tell it is regularly visited by the owners as a second home and not just for rental. A car is a must! But it is then only a short drive to many picturesque villages with lots of bars and restaurants, beaches etc etc. I found both the owner and manager to be most helpful from start to finish. Our return flight was at 9pm, so requested a late checkout - as no-one had booked the following day this was not a problem. This made our last day so much easier than if we had to check out at 10am. We left around 5pm!! When we arrived I sent a text to let the manager know we were just getting some shopping and expected time of arrival. Again, most helpful - he advised that getting shopping as soon as you arrive can be a sign to thieves as the weight of your luggage lowers the suspension of the car and the thieves wait for you to enter the supermarket and then steal your suitcases. So bearing this in mind he checked to see if the villa was ready, it was, so he suggested we go to the villa first, drop off our suitcases and then get our shopping. I also found that having a supply of cleaning products including washing powder was great. Often you have to buy a full pack and you probably only need a couple of capsules. A wonderful American fridge freezer - with ice and chilled water - my husband now wants one!! He also wants the Dolce Gustos coffee maker - they left the pods for us too - very nice! Outside is very spacious with 5 tables in total - one at the front, 2 on the raised patio, one just in front of the raised patio and one by the pool. You can chose to sit in the sun or shade as there is always a table in either. There were also 8 sunloungers (at least) and towels were provided for both by the pool and bathroom use. You can climb the stairs to the roof terrace - great views. The pool is large! There are 4 bedrooms and each is on suite - the bathrooms are very modern and clean - good quality! It was our first time to Portugal and I am so glad we chose this villa - we will definately return

Erholsame Urlaubstage

Wir waren in den Herbstferien 12 Tage in dem wunderbaren Ferienhaus und hatten eine erholsame Zeit. Das gesamte Team des Ferienhauses war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Der Pool war herrlich warm, genau das was wir uns gewünscht hatten. Das Haus ist super ausgestattet, wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt. Ein kleiner Nachteil war die nahegelegene Autobahn. Vielen Dank nochmal an das Team des Ferienhauses für den guten Service.

Fantastic villa, semi rural location but close to facilities

Lovely spacious villa, with four good sized bedrooms, 3 of which have large double beds, the fourth room has 2 single beds. All rooms had aircon, lovely en-suite bathrooms, shutters on the windows (which helped keep the rooms cool) and plenty of storage. Well equipped kitchen, large fridge freezer with an ice maker and drinking water, good quality bed linen and plenty of towels, including pool/beach towels. The patio area is lovely (but in need of a little attention) with plenty of pool chairs, loungers, bbq area etc. Although some loungers were looking a little tired and two were broken, we advised our contact and it was sorted out almost immediately and a new larger parasol was provided, which was very much appreciated. Not the owners fault but there are a lot of dogs around who think they are cockerel’s, as they did like barking together, in unison, at dawn. Although it’s a rural location, it’s close to the motorway, so you did get a bit of traffic noise, it didn’t bother us that much. Tiny tip - Take plenty of mosquito repellent and close windows before the sun goes down. Our contact (Paula) was extremely helpful and the welcome pack of breads, cheese and meats etc, after a long day of travelling and late evening arrival was amazing and really appreciated. We would definitely return, lovely villa indeed.
