Pousada Convento de Tavira

Location is spectacular right in heart of the old town near the castle, churches to visit, the bridge, restaurants etc. Going back in time is wonderful too. The property is beautiful. Pool is fantastic and super chill. Breakfast is excellent and plentiful with a lot of variety of local foods. The cheeses were to die for 😋!

The courtyard is simply lovely.

We spent a wonderful weekend at a beautifully restored convent-turned-hotel in Tavira. The setting is peaceful and full of character, with original architecture, vaulted ceilings, and even an on-site archaeological site you can view through glass floors—such a unique touch! The rooms are elegant and minimalist, blending old-world charm with modern comfort. Breakfast in the cloister courtyard was a highlight, and the staff were warm, helpful, and full of insight about the building’s history. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay memorable, sharing local tips and stories that brought the place to life. Thank you for acomodating us for dinner with our little dog. Located in the heart of Tavira, it was the perfect base for exploring the town. A quiet, inspiring retreat—highly recommended for a relaxing cultural escape.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. >The breakfast was amazing and the opportunity to eat outside in the courtyard was brilliant. I was amazed at how quiet the hotel was. I never heard any noise coming from any other room. I also found the perfect gift for a friend and the reception staff were fabulous at putting it all together for me. The hotel is centrally located, just a stones throw away from the Castle and within walking distance to absolutely everything.

A beautiful hotel. A little oasis in Tavira - sitting in the beautiful shady central open area or relaxing by the pool was pure escapism. A beautiful historic hotel, thoughtfully and sympathetically restored to maintain character. Super close to the main areas of the town. Lovely, helpful staff. The breakfast was outstanding! We were visiting for a birthday treat arranged for my friend. A complimentary bottle of bubbly and a birthday cake greeted her on check-in - a lovely and unexpected touch.
