Great location with everything we needed, and a helpful host!
This apartment is very nice, two bedrooms, a shower, full kitchen and a washer/dryer, which is super convenient. Manuela is a very conscientious and thoughtful host, and she provided us with lots of tips about activities and restaurants in the area. It's about a 10-minute walk to the centre of Tavira - there is a fairly long terraced staircase leading up to the neighborhood, but parking is available nearby. We enjoyed being able to watch the BBC news in English:) We didn't end up using the bikes, but there are 2 available. Thank you, Manuela!
Lage und Art der Unterkunft waren für uns nicht optimal, aber Manuela hat freundlicherweise sofort eine neue schöne Unterkunft gefunden. Sie ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit und hat viele Restaurant- Tipps. Check-in und Check-out liefen prima.

prima appartement. goed ingericht. vriendelijke eigenaresse
Alles was prima verzorgd. Werden vriendelijk ontvangen en kregen uitleg over het appartement. Heerlijk de openhaardhout en er was voldoende hout. Jammer was, dat in de woonkamer geen ramen zaten. Dus altijd net licht aan.
