Holiday rentals with a kayak in Tavira

The bed was very comfortable, but it's quite reductive as we were more comfortable in the accommodation than outside on their land (interesting when you are interested in the vegetable garden, fruit trees). The animals were an added value. The number of animals may be small, but they all have their place (the land is large) and are discreet. We were touched by the authenticity of Aïda and Berry who welcomed us as friends. Thank you again 😊

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!

Looks exactly like the pictures except bigger. The place is surprisingly large when you include the bedroom upstairs and the space downstairs - plenty of room for a large family. Everything worked including the hot water: plenty of water pressure. Air conditioner and washing machine in good condition and easy to use. Some of the furniture is beginning to show its age. Driveway is very narrow and the street is a little busy so be careful parking. Any reasonable car will fit, but your Ford F-150 will end up parked in the street.

That's really amazing. Thank you very much!

Sandra and Fausto were excellent hosts. The cottage was exactly like the pictures, very charming with lots of space both inside and out. We especially loved the great hot showers after a day on the beach! The cottage is very quiet with great sunsets on the terrace. The beach umbrella came in very handy! There are several good grill restaurants close by on the main road. It is under 2 kilometres from Olhão which has several excellent supermarkets and only 25 minutes by car from the airport. And close to some fantastic beaches. This part of the Algarve is so much better than on the other side of Faro. A great 10 days in a lovely place with super hosts.

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!
