This is a large, fully tiled, 250sqm/2700sqft villa with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, large lounge, large kitchen/dining room, several terraces, pool 11 x 5m (36 x 16ft) separated from the patio by a child security fence. There are two double bedrooms (one en suite and aircon, one with fan) and two twin bedrooms (both with fan). The villa is tastefully furnished and comprehensively equipped (indoors and outdoors) to cater for max eight guests. Cable and Satellite TV (BBC, ITV, etc) is provided, also DVD, CD, etc. WiFi broadband internet access is included, phone on request. The lounge and dining room are both air-conditioned. The lounge is quite large and has 2 x 3-seater and 2x2-seater couches Kitchen and dining room are separate; an open-plan arrangement results in a bright and airy setting. There is a large, shaded terrace off the kitchen. All windows in the villa (other than in the bathrooms) are equipped with shutters to guard against the sun in the summer heat.
While smoking is not permitted indoors, there are 8 sliding doors on the ground floor to the wrap-around terrace and each bedroom has a sliding door to a small balcony. Cleaning and linen each 6 to 8 days, towels and bathrooms each 3 to 4 days. Off road parking is available. Both the pool and the patio area are provided with garden furniture; the child security fence will be a boon to families with small children.
While a car may be desirable, it is not necessary. A footpath at the back of the villa leads to the Roman Bridge in 6 to 8 minutes walk. Taxis are plentiful and relatively inexpensive in Tavira (~€4 or ~£3 in town). There are inexpensive express buses serving the towns along the Algarve but also Seville and Lisbon. There is also a commuter train serving the coastal towns and connecting to the Faro to Lisbon express -- again, very inexpensive.
The ~7 miles/11km of beaches on Tavira Island are reached by ferry or by small train. There is even a remote, secluded nudist beach.
Tavira is still an active fishing port and boasts many good and inexpensive restaurants (and, unlike Spain, Portuguese restaurants open at ~19h00/7.00pm). There is a marked absence of the lager louts and disco bars which plague so many other resort towns.
For the golfer, there are several courses within 15 minutes; travel one hour and you have pretty well all of the Algarve courses available to you plus Isla da Canela and Islantilla just over the nearby Spaanish border.
Tavira is surrounded by the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve which abounds in flora, fauna, lepidoptera, etc. You can also go cycling or horseriding there. There is kayaking on the river in Tavira, surfing off Tavira Island, boat hire for sea fishing, etc.
For sightseeing, you have the Algarve Hills at the back of Tavira or the many fortified towns of the Guadiana Valley which forms the border between Portugal and Spain (Spain is 20miles/30km from Tavira).
Right through the summer, the Camara (town council) organises fairs, exhibitions, street theatre, a film festival, etc -- the town buzzes up to midnight and beyond.
The max number of guests is 8 but pricing is shown based on 4 guests. From Sept to June, a surcharge of 12.5% applies for a party of 5 or 6, a 25% surcharge for a party of 7 or 8. July, Aug prices are the same for 4 to 8 guests. A 5% discount applies for a two week stay, 7.5% for three weeks or more. Book 2009 before Dec 31, 2008, and you qualify for a 5% "Early Bird" discount. Long term winter let (Nov to March) is also available -- please enquire.
The property is managed by an English couple who live locally and who are on call should any emergency arise.
The large 11m x 5m (35ft x 16ft) pool is separated from the patio area by a child security fence. Loungers, shade, shower, etc, are provided. High walls offer excellent privacy.
The large patio area is separated from the pool by a child security and is provided with shade, loungers, dining table, etc.
