Hotel in zona Souvenir Shop Santa Luzia, Tavira

Just got back from a 4 day stay with my 2 children. Fantastic location and lovely hotel. The pool- was so quiet, and some mornings we practically had the pool to ourselves. Plenty of sun beds, no one reserved them. Which was so nice to see. The pool never really got busy until the afternoon. Restaurant - breakfast, the options very plentiful and never once had to queue. Fresh pancakes every morning were a hit with my children. The restaurant was always pretty empty. My only complaint is it is a little dark and with no air con. Dinner - the staff were very friendly, the waiter always remembered our drinks order without even asking. There were plenty of options and we found plenty to eat every day. Rooms - were spot on, spacious, with a decent size bathroom with a good shower. Beds were quite comfy. Also cleaned daily. We stayed on the 3rd floor and I read a lot of negative reviews about the pigeons, we had no problems what so ever. We could sit on the balcony no problem. I also don’t think pigeons in general are a problem for the hotel. Yes there were some flying around but I barely noticed them. Entertainment - was pretty poor, not much going on in my the day and the evening entertainment was pretty non existent apart from a Portuguese show on a Monday night and some singers on Friday/saturday night. We aren’t bothered by the entertainment as we prefer to go out in the evening. Pool side snack bar- although very slow to serve. The food was tasty, with burgers, toasties and sandwiches. The bar in the evening was dead and I think if there was better entertainment options then more people would use the bar in the evening. Also no air con. Don’t think I’ve ever been away at the height of season and seen an empty bar every night. The outside seating area could be utilised more in the evening with better lighting. Location- was perfect, lots of restaurants and shops on your doorstep. Would definitely come back to Tavira and this hotel.

Abbiamo soggiornato qui per 4 giorni come un grande gruppo di 3 famiglie con età variabile da 8-70! La nostra camera era perfettamente comoda, e sorprendente buona doccia di potenza! Il colazione era grande, bevande molto buone e molto ragionevolmente prezzi. Il pranzo avrebbe potuto essere migliore, ma c'era una gamma di cibo e per il prezzo, davvero non si può lamentare! La piscina è una delle più fredde che abbia mai vissuto, ma molto bella e i bambini amavano le diapositive. Ci sono stati molti saloni e anche a 9 o 10 si può facilmente trovare un sacco di alloggi. Senza dubbio, quello che ha fatto il nostro soggiorno è Rodrigo e gli altri membri della squadra di animazione, sono semplicemente sorprendenti! Non ci piace mai usare i club dei bambini, perché non mi sento confortevole lasciare i miei figli con gli stranieri, ma Rodrigo sarebbe venuto ogni giorno per divertirli, giocare a calcio con loro e lo adoravano assolutamente! Il resto della squadra era così divertente e felice di essere intorno. Ci siamo recati da un viaggio di Tbe delfino dall'hotel con aspettative molto basse e siamo stati così felici che abbiamo avuto una fantastica esperienza! L'equipaggio era eccellente e abbiamo dovuto passare una mattina meravigliosa circondata da delfini che non dimentichiamo mai! L'unico negativo era che abbiamo mangiato viva ogni giorno da mosquiti a causa della posizione, ma si è sentito utile! Prendete un sacco di spray mozzy!

Questo luogo stupendo mi è rimasto nel cuore. Molto pulito, raffinato e di buon gusto. Tutto al posto giusto. Il personale molto disponibile. Molto comodo anche se si vuole raggiungere l'oceano in pochi minuti in macchina. La prima sera abbiamo anche cenato sulla terrazza coperta, molto carina e particolare. La colazione? In una magnifica terrazza in cima alla struttura, dove si possono gustare cibi e specialità del posto e non. Sicuramente ci ritorneremo se saremo da quelle parti.

Struttura nuova, pulita e curata anche nell'arredamento, immersa nella natura con posizione strategica ha tutti gli elementi per poter passare una piacevole e rilassante vacanza Stanze essenziali, pulite e funzionali. Consiglio per la struttura: Inserire uno stendino nei balconcini. Colazione fantastica con pianista. La formula ALL INCLUSIVE è abbondante, distribuiscono cibo a tutti gli orari (anche troppo) L'hotel è ben collegato anche con il mare, ha una barca riservata agli ospiti che ti porta nell'altra riva della laguna per raggiungere il mare. COSA NON FARE: - abbandonare il cibo (nemmeno per pochi secondi) gabbiani e uccellini potrebbero approfittarne. - mangiare al ristorante RIA: il menù è fisso e non ne vale la pena.

This resort is amazing! Firstly the staff who checked us in were so friendly. We got to our accommodation and it was fantastic. We had a double room, a kind of side room with two singles and a sofa bed in the living room. We also had a very well equipped kitchen and a lovely balcony. The pools are brilliant. Securing sun beds was fine before 11am. My children went for two sessions at kids club and loved it. We were AI and I don’t think my children have enjoyed and eaten so much fish before. The AI bar rarely had a queue and the entertainment was really good. Only down side is that there isn’t a ‘shop’ on site. Things like inflatables, nail clippers, and general things. I would most definitely go back and I would highly recommend. Sure there lots I haven’t praised. Loved this resort and the area

This is generally well-managed, but could be so much better with a few improvements. We stayed for 10 nights in a 2-bedroom villa. The villa was generally clean, though quite dated. The reception staff were very friendly and very willing to help with any problems, except that there shouldn't have been problems! There was one restaurant / bar staff, who never smiled and and was always grumpy The bathroom smelled of sewage most of the time, which was very unpleasant. The beds weren't great, and were so short my feet hung over the end (I'm not very tall). While the rooms and bathroom were cleaned 5 days a week, I don't think they changed the bed linen. The internet is only available by renting a Wifi router from reception (€1/day), but they don't have many -- we asked for one when we made the initial booking and we got the last one. But the internet was pretty slow, I was often switching it off and using my phone. Clientele is very international, with most guests (I think) Portuguese - there were Germans, French and Dutch and Irish, and a few Brits. The pool is nice, but in the afternoons, and especially at weekends it got very crowded, with lots of non-guests driving up with their cars. The hotel sometimes checked our guest cards to make sure we were guests, but not very often, and it seems the wider town took advantage of that -- I told the reception we didn't appreciate our hotel being used as a municipal pool. The sun umbrellas can't be moved, and are pretty small, so lots of people moved the chairs to be under the shade of the trees. Breakfast was fine, but only open 8:30-10:30, so if you have an excursion with an early pickup, you will miss out. The evening buffet was also fine, though the restaurant was devoid of atmosphere, and sometimes had weird music (like a loud DJ playing house music at 8:00PM when it was mostly families!) The local Cabanas town is very nice with some nice restaurants, and there was a Fisherman festival on at the time. The beach was easy to get to with the dedicated boat service, and is a great beach, but only one bathroom, which isn't very much for such a well-used beach. The beach restaurant fills up fast (I couldn't get food there), and the beach chair rental is expensive (€23 for 2 chairs and a parasol), but if you bring your own sandwiches, it's fine. Tavira town was a €9 Uber ride away, and also very pretty, with lots of evening music festivals on. If the hotel refurbished the rooms to a more modern standard with better beds, fixed the sewage issues, put bigger sun umbrellas round the pool, had better security to restrict the pool for guests only, and put proper Wifi in, this would be a lovely place, but unfortunately, this fell a bit short of that.

Sono arrivato tardi in serata, ho bisogno di una camera doppia per mia moglie e per me stessa. Purtroppo, tutte le camere adattate dell'hotel erano già state prenotate. Consapevole delle difficoltà che ci presentano, la signora molto utile al ricevimento ha chiamato il suo partner per discutere della situazione. Alla fine della conversazione mi ha informato che, dopo aver discusso con il suo partner, avevano convenuto che potremmo passare la notte in una delle loro suite familiari accessibili allo stesso prezzo di una stanza adattata; per considerarla un'abitazione gratuita. Aggiornamento in vista delle nostre circostanze! Questo rappresentava un notevole sconto. Abbiamo avuto una notte molto comoda all'hotel, e una bella selezione di colazione scelte la mattina successiva. , in bellissimo ambiente. Il personale ha aiutato a garantire che le nostre esigenze fossero soddisfatte, e non posso apprezzare abbastanza l'esperienza. Un bel hotel in tutti i modi, e un hotel che consiglierei a nessuno. Grazie Quinta Do Marco - lavorate duro per dare alle persone un grande servizio e meritano di essere riusciti. Molto consigliato!

If you're looking for a great place to chill Herdade da Corte is where you need to go. A Rio Grande style and feel about it, surrounded by fabulous hilly views, orange, lemon trees, olive groves, and pure adulterated silence. You hear the whisper of the breeze throughout the outdoor areas which have casual seating dotted about, a sweeping view, and a to die for salt-water pool. If you want 5 star service and a butler this isn't the place for you! Our favourite time of the day was a leisurely hour and half munching our way through the buffet breakfast, consisting of 4 different freshly made juices, a good selection of local produce, bread, rolls, pastries and cake, cheese, cold meats, fruits, yoghurt, and natural cereals - while idly looking out to the hills. There's also an array of teas, and the coffee is via a machine which is good - but goat's milk! We've travelled the world extensively and it's rare to find such a place. If you want to jazz up your time there Tavira is charming, along with Tavira Island. You do need a car if you stay at Herdade and want to visit many areas, however, we had read other reviews and knew that - but we just wanted to relax there and do nothing! We stayed 4 days and did venture out 1 afternoon to a restaurant in St Luzia. Local taxi, very nice driver. 20 euro each way (same prices to Tavira) about 15 minutes journey. The owners Joao and Francisco are cool, interesting guys, very helpful, and knowledgeable about the area , local produce, wines, and activities to do there - hiking, etc. Good massage also available in relaxing room. €50 Personally speaking, we dossed (an English word for lazing about) around the pool , helping ourselves to the well-stocked honesty bar, with the occasional beer/glass of wine, absorbed in a few good crime novels. Please note: after breakfast there is NO food available until 7pm. We knew that and brought along our own snacks, nuts etc. The evening menu is mainly cold, very good local produce - oh, please try the prawns (they hot). We tried almost everything on the menu during our stay - couldn't fault anything. My husband arrived completely knackered (another old-school word for tiredness) and after almost 4 days rooted to the place said he felt like the Six Million Dollar Man! Thank you Herdades, we will be back. Hayley & Alan UK
