It was a surprise to find Tavira one of the best hotels I have visited in my life.
Very nice location with a boat that brings you to the beach every hour, the rooms are a good size and clean, the large pool with heated water or the indoor spa pool.
Finish it all off with a good buffet or à la carte restaurant.
With this money I did not think to find all this, I almost give 5 stars

Férias em família
Funcionários muito prestáveis e atenciosos. O gerente faz questão de estar sempre presente e ouvir as opiniões dos hóspedes. Quartos confortáveis, bem climatizados e com bom isolamento sonoro, têm cofre e minibar. Piscina para crianças muito divertida com vários escorregas. Poderia ser melhorada a variedade de alimentos ao pequeno almoço, nomeadamente dispor de mais fruta e produtos de padaria/pastelaria.
Globalmente foi uma experiência muito positiva!

Très bien
Séjour très agréable dans cet Hotel. Le cadre est vraiment très plaisant. La chambre et salle de bains confortables. Le personnel est très aimable et serviable. L'accueil est facile pour les familles avec jeunes enfants. Une animation est proposée pour ceux qui le souhaitent.
Le seul point négatif est la salle à manger qui est très grande et donc très bruyante.
Dans l'ensemble nous sommes très satisfaits.

3 star quality - pretty average
Beautiful buildings and location but, sadly, only a fraction of what it could be. Breakfasts are very mediocre (even the orange juice is processed) and staff generally not interested in service with a smile. The pool is woefully small for the size of the hotel and the name “eco” is just greenwashing.

The property was clean, the layout of the property was a little bit like a prison camp with blocks of accommodation very unimaginative the room was dark and you couldn’t have the blinds or curtains open because everyone would be able to see in beside the fact, there was no view just another block we did ask if we could move, but they said they didn’t have anything. Not our sort of place and wouldn’t return .

Très bel hôtel au milieu d’une réserve naturelle en face de l’île de Tavira. Le personnel est très gentil et au petit soin. Mention spéciale pour le chef des grillades et le barman !!! 2 belles piscines de magnifiques jardins et des chambres avec terrasse. Excellente literie. Nous y avons séjourné 6 jours en famille et nous nous sommes tous régalés !!!

The hotel is huge and caters to groups which I usually dislike. And it is outside of the lovely town of Tavira. But if you have a car, go golfing or birdwatching it is a great option. Ask for a room far from reception to avoid the commotion. The rooms are simple but nice. The hotel used to be the quarters for the tuna fishermen at the beginning the 20th century. There is a nice chapel and museum explaining the history, not to be missed.
