Holiday rentals with a kayak in Tavira

Stayed here with a friend. It's a really beautiful location with lovely dogs and cats roaming around. Very peaceful getaway and they offered fresh orange juice, eggs, fresh vegetables from the garden and more for breakfast.

Our booking was extremely last minute after we had been unable to stay in our family home. Quinta Dos Sorrisos was a home from home. Aida and Berry are amazing hosts, chilled yet responsive and perfectly accommodating. The accommodation is boutique chic. A rustic feel yet with a polished finish. All the little touches show the love and impeccable taste that has been poured into its creation. It’s minimalist for a relaxing feel, you can really declutter your brain. The facilities, for example to charge your phone, are discreetly at hand. Quinta Dos Sorrisos ticks all the boxes for an eco-holiday the solar panels are a no brainer. The local produce of oranges and figs, come without any airmiles. The area itself is my favourite part of the Algarve, Maragota, Moncarapacho e Fuseta. The Guardian rates it as number one for 2023 travel and being multi local and lucky enough to call this one of my homes I agree. Quinta Dos encapsulates the magic of this very special area.

Quite simply a stunning traditional town house in Santa Luzia. Comletely refurbished, tons of space, beautifully and tastefully furnished. Views from the roof terrace are wonderful. Ines was super responsive. I cannot recommend this house highly enough. You wont be disappointed.

It was our first time in Portugal and it was wonderful. The accommodation was perfect, we wanted to find peace and relaxation and that's exactly what we got. The house is beautiful and well equipped. Julie left us some food in the fridge because we arrived late in the evening. That was very nice. The property is absolutely amazing. Very, very large and wonderful places to linger. We were allowed to snack on the fruit and vegetables every day. Mary Ann and William are very friendly and asked how we were and if we needed anything else. All in all, the vacation was perfect and we would highly recommend it to any other guest!

Luis was great Host and property location, insides and other (kayak, SUP) were fantastic! Appreciated the proactive connect and responses to one-off needs from Luis. Very much enjoyed the photography memorabilia from his career as well that he had in house.

That's really amazing. Thank you very much!

If you prefer the rural location, Sandra's apartment is perfect, because in a few minutes you are on the main street. The steep gravel path was unusual for us at first. The apartment is beautifully furnished, the kitchen very well equipped, the terrace beautiful, Sandra and her family are very friendly. We are happy to recommend the place!

I had a restful stay at Aida and Barry’s place. I didn’t have a car and nearest train station is 3km away. Was able to get Uber to visit nearby towns when needed easily. I enjoyed having the very friendly dogs who wanted to walk with me, getting freshly laid eggs at the farm and the best oranges when juiced have the balance of tart and sweet. Aida and Barry were both very friendly and helpful hosts. Thank you!

We spent a night during our bike trip and it was very nice to rest, enjoy the ocean (very easy by bike) and cook! We particularly enjoyed the fresh vegetables, eggs, and bread available by hosts!
