“Clean, comfortable, good location.”

Tavira is a lovely little town and this property is well located along the river close to shops and restaurants. And even has their own restaurant. Room was nothing fancy but clean and comfortable. Staff were very friendly and the shower had awesome pressure. Best shower in weeks.

Location location location! If you are looking for a traditional guest house in the most central and perfect location in Tavira, Residencial Mares is the place for you. It overlooks the canal and has the most amazing restaurants surrounding it (do your research). Rooms are basic, but with this in mind, everything else is very good. Front facing rooms over the canal have a pretty view but can be a little noisy. Quiet rooms at the back I found were better, with an all day sun terrace overlooking rooftops. Noise does travel through the rooms due to the (beautiful) traditional terracotta tiles (and specially if you have noisy inconsiderate guests in the room next door). Breakfast was adequate, quite substantial, fresh and pretty much everything you need for a basic breakfast with good ingredients. If traditional and authentic is what you are looking for, then this is the place to stay in Tavira. If, however Hotel standards (a little more sterile in my opinion) is what you are looking after, then look at Hotels. Maria, the Guest House Manager runs the establishment perfectly. Book early if you want a good deal.

The location is perfect, directly by the ferry to take you to Tavira beach. Lots of restaurants surrounding you. The breakfast was plentiful and tasty. Parking is free just a short walk. They have a nice roof terrace if you were there in the summer.
