About this chalet rental
Fall in love with this cozy townhouse with its exceptional location in the heart of Tavira! Perfect for couples or families, the interior is enchanting with a snug lounge and a handy sofa bed for extra guests. Cook up a storm in the fully equipped kitchen which leads to a delightful alfresco dining spot where you can enjoy supper under the stars. Upstairs, a dreamy loft-style bedroom with ensuite shower awaits. All just steps from cafes, shops, and the boat to the lovely beach island!
INTERIOR
The front door opens to a warm and welcoming lounge—perfect for curling up with a book or simply unwinding. A separate area features a TV point and a comfy double sofa bed, offering a flexible space for extra guests. A cosy indoor dining nook leads to the fully equipped kitchen, complete with an oven, induction hob, dishwasher, and all the handy gadgets you'll need.
The kitchen looks out onto a charming open-air dining area, framed by succulent plants and furnished with comfortable seating. It catches the sun throughout the day, but there's a retractable awning if you prefer a shady spot to relax with a drink or enjoy an al fresco meal. A sleek ground-floor shower room adds extra convenience—especially useful for the extra guests using the sofa bed.
Follow the wooden staircase up to the loft-style master bedroom—light-filled, airy, and an inviting place to rest. A modern en-suite shower room completes this serene upper floor, making it a peaceful and private retreat.

10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2026
The location is fantastic as it is a short walk to both sides of the river. The Pingo Doce grocery is a 5 minute walk away for all of your day to day needs. There are a multitude of dining options within walking distance. The unit is well outfitted, cute and quirky and updated to a very high standard. The 2 full bathrooms are a huge plus with one down and one up being very convenient. Heat and A/C on both levels allowed for good individual temperature control. The welcome bottles of red and white wine plus water was a real treat! Everything was as advertised and it is a great little unit for a short or long stay (we were 6 days).
The bed was a bit soft for us, there wasn't a top sheet and there was two separate comforters which was strange to us but that is a personal preference. The steep and narrow stairs to access the bedroom up can be a challenge with large suitcases. There are low doorway heights for tall people in a few places but you learn quick after a couple of head knocks but this is what it is like staying in a cool, old apartment and that's part of the charm. There weren't any shower shampoo and soap or coffee/tea supplies to start which is fairly standard for apartment stays.
