A lovely traditional Portuguese house
A fantastic find, right near the beach (only 1.5€ per adult return fare for 2 Minuit water taxi ride) shops, cafe’s, bars and local restaurants but soooo quiet. Amazing roof terraces. Comfortable beds and everything you need for a perfect stay.

Lovely taste of Portugal
Had a lovely stay in Cabanas in this traditional Portuguese house in a small town. Everything was within walking distance. Close to the boardwalk and ferry across Ria Formosa lagoon to the beach. Two wonderful terraces. Nicely decorated with artistic touches. We had a few issues that required us to contact the owner who responded immediately. Would recommend to others!

Great stay
I highly recommend this property and this host. It is an idyllic location, the house is full of charm and really lovely neighbourhood. Excellent local restaurants, especially fish restaurants, and lovely fresh fruit, vegetable and fish market daily. It's the perfect spot for those who love the sea. Our host, José, was really helpful and friendly. Highly recommend!

Very authentic house
The house was cosy and quaint. Well resourced. Everything you could possibly think of was provided . Beautiful roof terraces. Near the sea . Please note the nearest train station is cabanas de Tavira . Not Tavira . Tavira itself is only a 4 minutes train ride . Fabulous holiday !!

A lovely house in the heart of Cabanas
A house with rustic charm in the heart of Cabanas. Communication with the owner Jose was quick and easy and he answered the numerous questions promptly. Jose picked us up from the bus stop and showed us round the property and gave us the information required to make our stay comfortable. The house was well equipped and fulfilled all the requirements of a holiday let. We spent most of our time in the private terrace which was ideal for relaxing with a glass of wine. The hose is close to all amenities including public transport, numerous restaurants (Coral and Ideal were our favourites), the beach and shopping. We had a lovely two weeks staying in Cabanas and will return in the future. Thank You Jose! Alison & Ray Fernando

Beautiful traditional Portugese property
Our stay was perfect from the moment we arrived and were met by Maria and Jose. They talked us through everything we needed to know, and they were only a phone call away for any problems which may arise, which was reassuring, but of course there were no problems. The roof terrace is a really beautiful place to relax and on the evening a lovely place to sit, drink and take in the stars. Will certainly recommend it to family and friends.

Cabanas luxury and charm combined
This lovely house is absolutely charming, full of character and spotlessly clean with everything you could possibly need and then more. Bedding and towels all pristine and matching colours and such a treat that everything looked as good as the photos, if not better. Plenty of throws provided, in case the evenings were chilly, and beach towels also. The kitchen was so well equipped with good quality pots and pans, crockery, cutlery, glasses, no end of gadgets, tea towels etc ,just don't know how it was all fitted in. Lovely sunny roof terraces and BBQ area. Superb location, two minute walk to the seafront and boardwalk and numerous bars, cafe's, restaurants, shops all within walking distance where you can buy everything you need so no car necessary. Recommend buying all fruit, veg, fish in the local market where you can pick what you want and all such a good price together with high quality fresh meat, cut to order, from the butcher just around the corner. The beach is beautiful and fun to get to by water taxi. The owners met us on arrival and were really friendly and showed us around and said any problems, just call. Needless to say we didn't have any apart from not wanting to leave. This is the best property we have ever stayed in in Cabanas and thoroughly recommend it. Looking forward to that glass of wine next time we are over ! Col and Jan

Idéalement placé et propre
Cet hébergement est parfaitement placé. À 5 min à pied d’une supérette SPAR, 10 min de la plage. Il faut prendre un petit bateau à 1€50 l’aller retour pour aller à la plage et la traversée prend 5 min. Le logement est impeccable et on peut profiter des terrasses surtout le matin et en soirée. Nous avons bien profité du barbecue. Merci José et à bientôt !

Rustikal, ortstypisch und zentral. Zum wohlfühlen.
Ein ursprüngliches portugiesisches Haus in zentraler Lage in Cabanas. Von hier aus sind der Strand, die Restaurants und Geschäfte schnell fussläufig erreichbar. Das Haus hat eine schöne typisch portugiesische Dachterrasse, die zum verweilen einlädt. Auch die Aussendusche hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Das Haus ist rustikal und ortstypisch, daher ist nicht alles klinisch rein. Wer das weiss, wir sich sehr wohl fühlen.

Le village de Cabanas est resté authentique et les environs offrent une belle variété de paysages et d’activités. Bref, un très bon moment en famille.

Erholung an der Algarve
Wir haben zwei schöne Urlaubswochen in Cabanas de Tavira erlebt. Die Wohnung ist sehr empfehlenswert, obwohl ein paar Kleinigkeiten (z.B der Duschvorhang muss erneuert werden) zu beanstanden waren. Die Dachterrasse ist wunderschön und wir haben jeden Tag hier begonnen und beendet. Cabanas ist ein schöner Ort und es gibt viele Restaurants und Geschäfte, Bäcker, Fleischer, Spar... alles ist zu Fuß zu erreichen. Parkplatz für das Auto war selten vor der Haustür, aber wenn man ein paar Minuten Fußweg in kauf nimmt, war immer etwas zu bekommen. Der Vermieter wohnte in Sevilla und ist bei Problemen telefonisch erreichbar. Wir haben den Urlaub sehr genossen und würden jederzeit diese Unterkunft weiter empfehlen. Wir sind dankbar für einen schönen Urlaub an der Algarve!
