Vila Gale Tavira Resort Hotel

Room was spacious. Pool area neat and tidy. Good location for exploring Tavira. Breakfast room was dark and gloomy…In fact hotel decor is quite dark, not to my taste.

Every time we go to Tavira this is the hotel of our choice. Their standards remain the same as far back as we can remember. I asked for a specific room and they manged to give it to us, which we really appreciated! Will be back on our next visit....

Extensive breakfast buffet, hardworking, helpful staff, comfortable rooms and great outside areas. Some parts of the hotel, notably the dining room, could use an update but this did not detract from our stay.

Close to a number of nice restaurants. Hotel restaurant staff not terribly accommodating so we didn’t eat there. Check in was slow. Front desk staff couldn’t seem to provide the simplest tunings like extra toilet paper or Kleenex. Spa area need some fixing up.

We visited Tavira to celebrate a special birthday of a friend who now lives in Cabanas. Arriving 4 days before the birthday surprise, we had plenty of time to relax in the hotel and explore the town. The hotel room was spacious and very clean. Storage space in the room was a little cramped given it was all inside the wardrobe, which was also occupied by the safe and mini bar. We stayed B&B, with breakfast very well organised as you were shown to a table each morning. Food was standard breakfast fare and all the stations were monitored well and replenished quickly. The pool area was lovely and spacious with ample sunbeds available each day. The location of the hotel was perfect for exploring the town and its many restaurants and bars. Also ideally situated for the ferry to the beach. Would most definitely use this hotel again when returning to Tavira.

Perfect location but hotel very tired and in need of a refurbishment.

Was grand, service is good, great food and hospitality, will always try this place out in the future although better deals for regular visits would've been good

The hotel was family friendly. The breakfast was wonderful. We found free street parking. Tavira is extremely walkable and we were super close to the ferry to Tavira Island. The only thing I didn't care fore was the smell of cigarettes in the common areas.

Lovely and clean but quite expensive at the bar 9euros for 2 glasses of Pepsi. Pool area is really lovely. Although this is a family hotel it’s not overrun by children.

We enjoyed 5 wonderful days here, making use of the hotel facilities and exploring the local area. The outdoor pool and bar area are fantastic. The indoor pool and spa needs some improvement - while the pool itself is large with comfortable loungers around it, the jacuzzi barely functions and the steam room didn't work at all. The bedrooms are very comfortable and generously sized with balconies and a mini bar fridge. A kettle service is advertised to make tea and coffee in your room, but although we asked for it on the first day it only arrived on dsy 4 of a 5 night stay. Breakfast is average, and the evening meal is OK but lacking in atmosphere, whereas there a multiple fantastic restaurants in walking distance which I would recommend using instead.
