Carob Tree Bridge

Holiday Rental Description

Nestled in a dreamy resort on the outskirts of Tavira, this Portuguese townhouse has everything you need for a relaxing summer getaway with friends or family. Start your day on the roof terrace where you’ll be greeted by gorgeous views of the communal pool, then head downstairs for a day of swimming and sunbathing in the resort’s private gardens.

Whether you’re here on a long weekend or planning a more extended stay, there’s plenty to keep you occupied nearby, from the labyrinthine streets of the town centre to the soft sands of Tavira Beach Island, a short ferry ride from home. Stretch your legs with a relaxing stroll along the Gilão River or stay put and beat the heat with a midday snooze in your air-conditioned sleeping quarters.

The décor here might not be anything to write home about but what this place lacks in showstopping design features, it more than makes up for in home comforts. Rustle up a hearty meal in the fully equipped kitchen, kick back and relax on the poolside patio, or snuggle up on the sofa and lose yourself in a good book. What's not to love?
