Disappointing on every level.
Location of property is central.
Photos advertising the property are inaccurate. 44 steps up to accommodation, not mentioned in the advert. The property was not clean, hair from previous occupants on the floors, microwave & freezer were dirty. Water was scalding hot/freezing cold, dangerous. Shower base was soft and unstable, whole bathroom was dated, I cleaned the door at the handle as it was filthy. Terrace had no decent loungers, (unlike picture on advert) so no point paying more for that as you couldn’t use the terrace to relax. Electric bed-light socket in bedroom hanging off the wall. Stayed 9 nights no cleaning was carried out. Owners were fast to respond to scalding water issue, however, I would not recommend this property. We have stayed in Tavira numerous times before and unfortunately this was a huge disappointment and vastly overpriced.

Overall a good experience. Instructions how to access the property were provided by email prior to arrival, along with g
Very well located in the heart of the town, just 1 row over from the river. Well equipped with external balcony and shared terrace.
There are @50 steps to go upto / down from the apartment. This was not an issue for me, but could prevent a challenge to anyone with even minor mobility issues

Spacious but for two people doesn’t worth the price
It was spacious and a very good location.
Nice balcony and Kitchen was stocked well + washing machine
- Shower! Shower was tricky to work with. The water was getting cold very quickly. It was getting very hot and then very cold.
- People from next apartment’s balcony could easily look into our place. And the balcony was not clean
The air conditioner also requires service.

Great location, but a shame as the property is in need of investment and refurbishment.
Where to start? Well, firstly a few positives. The location was very good, close to a lot of restaurants and just across the river from the old town. Intrinsically the apartment was what we expected inasmuch as it has two separate bedrooms, a kitchenette/living room, and a bathroom. In terms of the kitchen there was a decent fridge, a washing machine and we we assume a functioning hob (I was on hols so cooking wasn't on my agenda) plus a pretty good coffee machine along with some filter papers. Similarly, the aircon in both bedrooms worked well, but sadly the aircon in the main area was woefully ineffective. The apartment is accessed via a lot of stairs and there is no lift. Not an issue as I had my son to assist, but for anyone a little frail as I am nowadays, it could be a problem. There were two terraces. One seemed to be a shared facility with the neighbours so we didn't use it, but the second was a private area of decent proportions, and we could sit there with a beer or a glass of wine most nights without having to worry about disturbing anyone although some better furniture would have been appreciated. Oh, and the WIFI was very good though needed a booster at the far end of the apartment.
Again, where do I begin? The best way to describe the place is "tired" although in need of TLC and a refurbishment might be a more accurate description. One of the bedroom door knobs was broken and kept coming off. Not a major issue during the day but made quite a noise at night if getting up to use the toilet. NB. Didn't think to pack any Allen keys! Although functional, one of the shelves in the fridge was secured with Gaffa tape, there was no coffee, no washing liquid nor fabric conditioner (we purchased the latter two and left them for the next guests). There was little washing up liquid and no sink plugs, only 2 smallish bath towels for our 5 day stay, but they did at least provide a drying rack and 8 clothes pegs, which was a challenge. However the shower itself took some managing. The boiler is powered from a remote gas cylinder sat outside of the bathroom on the terrace, so the temperature moves from cryogenic stasis to flaying the skin off your back levels with alarming regularity, & in the interests of self preservation, we realised that the best bet was to listen for the boiler to kick-in and then judge the thirty second sweet-spot to get under the shower itself. Also, the shower tray sagged alarmingly in the middle which indicates some of the reinforcement below must have come adrift. The aircon vent pipe seems to run straight onto the terrace, and some of the cutlery and crockery was initially dirty which indicated that cleaning needs more attention, assuming cleaners had of course been in before we arrived.
In terms of accessing the property, I was sent the access codes and instructions from the hosts. However we heard nothing more during our stay (not even to ask how we were getting on) so when we left, I simply reversed the original instructions and hoped for the best. Not ideal & we left the rubbish as no idea what to do with it.
Da honestidade, simplicidade, disponibilidade e simpatia dos anfitriões.
Nada a apontar.

Das Appartement ist in der Altstadt von Tavira, jedoch ruhig zurück gelegen. Das Appartement ist wie in den Bildern beschrieben und hat 2 große Terrassen. Leider konnte ich die Terrassen nicht nutzen, da immer ein starker, eiskalter Wind wehte. Es ist funktional eingerichtet und war sauber. Bietet Platz für 4 Personen. Die Betten verfügen über Orthopädiematratzen - sind somit etwas härter. Das vorhandene Küchenequipment war für mich ausreichend. Alle verfügbaren Geräte haben funktioniert. Die Waschmaschine ist wirklich nützlich. Wlan hat gut funktioniert.
Bei der gemeinsamen Terrasse gibt es eine versteckte Tür - hinter dieser befinden sich Putz- und Reinigungsutensilien. Auch ein Staubsauger und Waschpulver.
Sportliche Aktivität ist durch die 42 Stufen gewährleistet, die zu bewältigen sind um ins Appartement zu gelangen (mit 20 kg Koffer evtl. Zwischenstopp nötig).
In der näheren Umgebung - ca. 800 m entfernt - gibt es kostenfreie Parkplätze (Nähe Mercato), wo das Auto auch mehrere Tage stehen kann. Das fand ich sehr angenehm.
Müllentsorgung findet außerhalb des Hauses statt. Im Ort - beim Theater - finden sich in die Erde eingelassene sortierte Müllbehälter.
Insgesamt ist das Appartement angenehm. Ich würde es jederzeit wieder buchen.
Leider war nie warmes Wasser zur Verfügung, was sehr unangenehm beim Duschen ist. Es dauerte lange bis lauwarm kam und keine Minute später wieder eiskalt. Wer Eis baden liebt, für den ist das genau richtig.
Es war sehr kalt in der Wohnung (März) - kälter als im Freien. Ich hatte zwar lange warme Unterwäsche an, jedoch immer gefroren.
Der Heizlüfter brachte keine Wärme, nicht einmal wenn er direkt hinter einem plaziert war. Die Klimaanlage verwirbelt nur die Luft, bringt keine Wärme
Je nachdem welche Gäste in den anderen Appartements sind, kann es im Haus sehr hellhörig werden. Das Haus hat einen Halleffekt.
Jetzt ein wenig jammern auf hohen Niveau:
Wenig Wäscheklammern. Etwas Essig, Öl, Gewürze wie Pfeffer und Zewa sind für Reisende immer toll, um nicht gleich in Supermarkt rennen zu müssen.
Aus diesen Gründen nur 8 Punkte, ansonsten würde ich 9 Punkte geben.
z.T. schmutziges Geschirr, verschimmelte Waschmaschine, schmales Doppelbett mit nur 1 Duvet, Duschbrause verstopft, Warm-/Kaltwasser (über Miniboiler) kaum angenehm zu regeln, einige Glühbirnen in den Lampen defekt.
Located 3.1 mi from Island of Tavira in the heart of Tavira's historical center, this apartment has access to a private sun terrace. It is a short 2-minute walk from the Roman Bridge and Tavira's Castle.
