Hotel was great but if we went again would stay in tavira, although it was only 10 mins in an Uber into town would much prefer to be within walking distance but saying that it didn't spoil our trip. The transfers to and from golf and airport were excellent very punctual and helpful

Very comfortable hotel, in the village terrace format arranged around grassy and tree lined pathways. Breakfast was great, pool large and well maintained, staff friendly and helpful. Bit away from town so we had to get taxis everywhere but Ubers were quick and cheap.
