Lovely clean, quiet, well-run hotel. Excellent breakfasts, lovely relaxed pool area and nice roof-top bar.

Wonderful stay!

Been 4 times now, love it!

Excelent clean room, staff, breakfast,

The hotel is lovely - there is a bit of a hill to climb down to Tavira main streets and a bigger hill on the way back but it is a short walk. The staff are so friendly and helpful. The only downside is the shower. The power is not great but all else was perfect.

Necesita cambio de almohadas y toallas

Modern hotel within walking distance from the town centre . You are greeted on arrival by a glass of wine, which is a nice touch. The rooms are spacious, clean, and with a decent size wardrobe, plus a fridge and a desk. Pool view rooms have a balcony, which also get the sun. Breakfast is very good, with a good selection of hot and cold food There is a gentleman playing the piano each morning. There is also sparkling wine available. The only downside is that it's quite noisy, especially if the hotel is busy, with no soft furnishings to absorb the sound. The two pools are nice but the water was cold on our visit (May). There is a pool bar for drinks, and more than enough sun loungers. A downside is that the bar plays music all day which I think is too loud, and not to everyone's taste. My idea of a relaxing time by the pool is not necessarily listening to someone else's choice of music. I think this is something that that hotel should look to. You don't really need music at all by the pool in my opinion. There is a rooftop bar which has indoor and outdoor seating, and has live music some nights, and a DJ at other times, starting from 20:30. The Spa is a waste of time, the pool is only 3m by 10m, the steam room was out of order, and the sauna was under repair. I was in and out in 5 minutes! There is a €10 deposit for pool towels. Note that from 7th May the hotel have introduced a no cash policy for all bar and restaurant payments.

Lovely hotel in the perfect location. Rooms beautiful however the bathroom needed a little bit of attention also housekeeping could have been better. Great selection at the buffet breakfast

Hotellet var bra men tex i SPA:s ångbastu hadde takfägen släppt och hängde ned. Åtgärdades under våra 3 dagar på hotellet. I vanliga bastun var stora delar av laven trasig och avspärrad.

We had an excellent stay at this hotel! The facility was beautiful, the staff was very welcoming and the breakfast was fantastic!

Breakfast was a buffet with a good selection but was the same every day. It was well presented and there was always plenty of food. The room was very brown and we booked a suite which was disappointing with regards to equipment eg no spoons, hospitality tray very basic, no milk, no biscuits and two watchers of coffee granules. We were given a bottle of wine but no wine glasses or corkscrew so it was left untouched. The room was relatively clean but bathroom was poorly configured as couldn’t run a bath without standing in empty bath as shower door prevented access to taps. There were signs of blistering paint due to dampness. As it was at the beginning of the season we expected everything to be fresh and ready for the start of the summer but that wasn’t the case. The spa treatment was very good. The steam room was tired with paint flaking off ceiling, the swimming pool was grubby too. The outdoor swimming pool area could do with a good tidy and clean up (rabbit poo everywhere). Small tables grubby, umbrellas broken and sun beds old and uncomfortable.

Perfekt läge nära Gamla stan. God frukost & trevlig personal. Vi kommer gärna tillbaka.

Härligt läge på högsta ställe i staden

We had an excellent stay. The breakfast buffet was a lot more elaborate than we expected, including a great pianist that gave us the pleasure of listening to Pink Floyd during breakfast. Front desk staff were friendly and provided great restaurant suggestions. The star of the show, though, was the exceptional Brazilian girl that runs the spa. I lost my esteemed gold necklace in the change room and she was the sweetest helping me find it. Thank you so much!!!

Good

Great view from our balcony. Nice room. Lovely staff. Good breakfast.

Spacious room with big window and beautiful view from the balcony. Nice outdoor pool area, and indoor pool with Turkish bath, sauna and gym. The room was always kept clean, but the balcony floor, table and chairs were dusty. We took the garage parking for 5euro per day. Nice breakfast with live piano. Loved our stay in this hotel.

Fabulous hotel, comfortable beds, very clean rooms, very friendly and helpful staff, thoroughly enjoyed our stay and even though we've stayed in Maria Nova before we make a point of making a return trip simply because we are never disappointed. Its near (walking distance) shops, restaurants, bars cafe's and boat to the beach. Breakfast is good too.

Portugal is stunning. The food at the hotel is excellent, especially the desserts. The pool was closed during my stay, only the spa was available. The welcome drink isn’t suitable for non-alcohol drinkers. Unfortunately, a housekeeper stole a necklace from my room. The music at the reception is repetitive and could use more variety. The interiors are gorgeous.

Lovely welcome back . Clean room and fairly spacious . Staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast good didn’t have any other meals at the hotel . Didn’t use pool or spa . Been back 3 times now so that must say something !
