Casa da Porta Nova

As camas confortáveis, cozinha equipada.

Faltava só ter um aspirador

Os colchões das camas de casal eram muito moles...

L’appartement très bien situé. Près du petit centre pour les concerts du soir, près de tous les restaurants. À pied du bateau pour aller à la plage pour l île de Tavira.

La caution de 400€ écrite dans les petites lignes ! Pas de mbay pour moi (ce n’est que les banques portugaises qui le font), le virement en France prend au minimum 2 jours ouvrés juste pour la création du bénéficiaire, ou en espèces. Heureusement qu’une personne qui nous accompagnait avec mbay! Explications que nous avons que Booking ne prend pas en charge les cautions ! Mais nous avons été remboursés des 400€ de caution!

The location is very close to town centre and nearby groceries shops all within walking distance. The apartment is big and has complete facilities.

1st floor apartment and no lifts to carry our luggages. There is no self check in and we have to wait a long time for someone to let us in.

The apartment was VERY spacious, clean and in a great location. It had everything one would need to feel at home. Kitchen was easy to use, and again, spacious. The apartment was more than we expected, and loved how clean and well appointed it was in all ways. At first I wasn't sure if we should be on the other side of the river, but there is PLENTY to see and do on both sides, and the apartment is very close to the bridge and a beautiful plaza with good restaurants all around the parklike center. So very close to everything. Olga, the lady that met us at the house was very lovely and helpful. Wish we could've stayed longer and would totally stay there again.

There was NOTHING we didn't like about the apartment. We thoroughly enjoyed it. My only surprise (and this was probably on me to read the small print - but it was not super apparent), was that there was a 400.00 Euro cash security deposit, at check in. We found that you do not need to carry around that much cash in Portugal, as almost everywhere accepts cards and its very easy moving around Portugal without having to exchange a bunch of money, so we were caught off-guard. Olga was generous and understanding and we worked it out, but I think that sort of thing should be a little more clear at the time of booking to avoid any stress at check in.

The apartment was very well located, it was easy to walk to everything we needed! While being very close to the central area of Tavira, the apartment is on a quiet side street so there were no noise issues at all. We would stay again!

We feel the apartment meant all expectations.
