Having read the positive reviews on Tripadvisor we decided to choose Tavira House for our 2 night stay in Tavira. From the outside you wouldn't know there is a hotel - very low-key exterior, but open the front door and there is a feeling of calmness and luxury. We were given a complimentary glass of bubbly on arrival and shown... More

We stayed here for 3 nights in June 2013. It is beautifully decorated throughout and the owners have done a superb job of converting the house into a small hotel. We stayed in the Buganvilia room which is a superior room. It was a very large, light and airy room with a big bathroom with double shower. There were lots... More

This is a beautifully renovated house-hotel, retaining a lot of original character but with modern features. We had a bright, airy room on the first floor with a french balcony decorated with flowering pots. The room was well appointed with a large, comfortable bed, plenty of wardrobe space, a small flat screen tv and a safe. Fresh fruit and water... More

Actually I shouldn't write this review for this small boutique hotel is a true hidden gem less then 5 minutes away from the city center, located in a quite and narrow street. You could easily miss this renovated building but once you enter it you'll be engulfed by warm hospitality and a tasteful interior design. Staff is superb, very friendly... More

I like Rick Steve's a lot, but his hotel Rec's are a bit on the scimpy/cheap side for my wife. We found the perfect solution through Trip Advisor in Tavira, Portugal. Tavira House is a great location and better than the options Rick offers for Tavira, Portugal. It is at most a 3 minute walk to the river and main... More

Wished we could have stayed longer! Loved the little town of Tavira and our room at the Tavira House. Staff was very helpful, directing us to free parking, where to catch boat to the beach on the island, and suggesting places to eat. Had we known how wonderful Tavira was, we would have stayed a week instead of two nights.... More

This beautifully renovated house in a small side street in Tavira is a very well kept secret. From the minute you walk in you can tell that a lot of money has been spent on bringing Tavira house into the 21st century and it has been done with a great deal of taste. We stayed in the top floor suite... More

We were pleasantly surprised by this hotel. A welcome cocktail upon your arrival, a beautiful and clean room (Buganvilia) with air conditioning (a must in August). There is a great rooftop terrace which we would have used more often if we weren't enjoying air conditioning in our room. They have a really nice breakfast with fresh juices and offer towels... More

We decided to book Tavira House and in particular the Fucsia Room (fell in love with that bathtub). The only problem was that we didn't have enough time to enjoy the room and house. Staff were amazing with us and I would and will recommend to my friends who want to visit Tavira! Keep up with the good work!
