Great Location on the Rio Gilao

Everything in Tavira was not more than a 15 minute walk. Property was as advertised and Emma and Anna the agents were wonderful. Only negative was the noise as late night partiers were leaving the nearby pub and bars. The view of the river and Roman bridge sitting on the patio made up for that. We loved Tavira!Rick & Cheryl Calgary, Canada

Entertaining

This will be a repeat location. After expecting a noisy finish to the day we were not disappointed. Expecting it and being surprised by it are two different things. The next 6 nights we slept like babies, used to it. What a beautiful place and location. It’s our Portugal FAVORITE vacay for the future. Just it’s really hard to get!!!

Great location….everything within walking distance…no need for a vehicle.

Central location comes with daytime, and evening noise. Noise from people passing by, restaurants in the immediate area and construction nearby could be heard in the front of the unit (living room and second bedroom). Front of the unit (master bedroom, kitchen, and decks) were relatively quiet. We would recommend this unit for 2 guests. The positives of the location, and the view from the decks, far outweighs any noise issues. Anna, the unit manager was great. She gave us a good overview of what was in the immediate area.

Main be bedroom, shower room and kitchen with outside terrace onto River just parfect. Birds visit at low tide and nice breeze down river on hot evenings. Upper terrace views over rooftops, very hot and not used due to heatwave on our visit. Emma answered questions quickly and sorted transfers. Would love to visit again. Sue

Off season Stay

I spent a week here in November when Tavira is generally quiet. Emma, the host, is exceptional. So friendly and helpfull, with lots of useful tips on good places to eat etc. The property is great and has all you need, except maybe, TV viewing is a bit limited (for a UK viewer) and the couch isn't the most comfortable. OK I'm being picky now!The location is superb! It was great sitting out on the terrace people watching going over the bridge. There was music playing from a nearby bar which I didn't mind but may bother some. It didn't go on till late, but I don't know what it would be like in the hight of the season. The roof terrace would be fantastic and relatively private but given the time of year I didn't have the opportunity to use it. I would definately consider returning to this property.

Perfect accommodation in a beautiful city.

This accommodation certainly is the best location in town. We couldn't have asked for a better location, right in the heart of the city with everything on your doorstep. This perfect little property has everything you need for your stay in Tavira. It is immaculately clean. The beds are very comfortable with air con in both rooms as well as the living-room. The best bit is the main terrace looking over the Roman bridge, it's just beautiful. Perfect people watching spot whilst taking in the sights and sounds of Tavira and having a glass or 2 of wine. The private roof terrace upstairs is great if you like to do a bit of sunbathing. Emma the owner is such a lovely girl and nothing is a hassle. Communication was fab and anything you need or need to know, she is there to help. All in all we would definitely recommend staying here and hopefully my husband and I will return in the near future.

Beautiful spotlessly clean property set right on the river and next to the ancient bridge so you can people watch all day and night if you like. Well fitted out and we made good use of the parasols and beach towels that Emma the property manager provided for us. We were met at the property on arrival, just phone Emma when you are leaving the airport. This was our second visit to this property and we would highly recommend it. We will return without question.

Great holiday!

Our flight into Faro was very early and our departure flight was very late, but Emma contacted us before we left the UK to say we could check in as early as we liked and we could check out as late as we liked. Superb! Emma met us on our arrival at the villa and showed us everything we needed to know. We had a great stay at this superbly located, simple villa which had everything we needed. We will not hesitate to book again when we next plan to holiday in Tavira.

Location and view

The selling point of the apartment is definitely the view and location which are exceptional. The apartment itself is actually quite basic, the living room felt gloomy and unloved which was not a problem for us as we didn't use it. One of the sun loungers on the upper terrace was ripped and unusable. There was no brush to sweep the kitchen and terrace which over the week meant we had quite a lot of ants. The second bedroom could be quite noisy with people passing, but that is to be expected due to the central location. Overall we had a great time but a few tweeks but make a nice apartment great.

Comfortable accommodation in great location

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Casa Asseca. Several bars and restaurants are within a few minutes walk, as are all the sights and the ferry terminal for the beach. There are two good sized bedrooms and the kitchen is well equipped, making great use of the space. Our visit was in late October which meant we didn't get much evening use of the balcony with its great views of the river and the bridge. Our next visit will be earlier in the season! Emma and Inge couldn't have been more helpful with local information, booking taxis etc. Great holiday!
