The unit has bare necessities. Bring your own shampoo. They provide hand soap only. There is a microwave oven, kettle and a toaster but only 1 outlet so you will need to move appliances around to do anything as simple as making breakfast. The location is remote which means you will need a car to get around. There is nothing interesting going on in the immediate area. ##### Vahid Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 10 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Logement à la hauteur de nos attentes Très correct ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Odalys 7 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Muy agradable la zona de la piscina, las cabañas tienen confort, no tienen aireacondicionado, en verano es un problema ##### Odalys Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 16 Aug 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Einfache, gepflegte Anlage für Autofahrer Die kleine, gepflegte Anlage liegt ca. 5km von Tavira nahe der Bahnstation Livramento.

Monte dos Avós Village cannot be recommended, at least not apartment/house no. 1. The place is generally worn out and need a major renovation to be at an acceptable level. The so-called kitchen lacks even the most basic stuff, personally we had to buy a sharp knife and a cutting-board. You also need to bring kitchen-cloth etc. yourself. The worst thing however was that there is a really ugly smell of old basement when you open any of the drawers in the kitchen, a clear sign of a problem with moist and lack of ventilation. Wi-fi does not work in the apartment, only in the bar area. ##### Karsten Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### THIALALY , Créteil 12 May 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Super rapport qualité prix !!!!

Não deveria ter nem 2 estrelas. Fomos recepcionados por uma mulher extremamente grossa e antipática, creio que a dona. A estrutura conta com várias casas velhas, com louças do banheiro muito antigas. Ninguém fica de plantão na recepção à noite, portanto o "village" fica sem nenhuma vigilância, com o portão aberto. Na porta das casas ficam diversos gatos esperando por comida dos hóspedes, horrível. Parecia ser mais um albergue do que um hotel. Deveriam revisar a quantidade de estrelas deles... ruim demais!!! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Adri 2 Sept 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Disapointed - family holiday ruined On arrival we shocked as the apartment in question didn't look anything like the photos posted on the website - then the problem with the cockroaches started finding a fully grown one in the bathroom the following morning and eggs on the kitchen surfaces. The kitchen was extremely outdated and the bedrooms seemed to be premenatly damp - we could hear our neighbours as if they were in our apartment. The cockroaches got so bad that we left the apartment mid stay as we asked for the door to be fixed and it never was whilst we were there (even tho we told the person running the place Carmen and she brought a handyman who said he would - however two days later with a 1 year old baby we really couldn't risk the volume of them coming In and the already infested kitchen so we left to an extremely apologetic Carmen - I told her this had ruined our family holiday and asked pls to sort this problem out for the sake of other families. Very disapointed for our 4 kids ruined family holiday. ##### Adri Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 10 Jun 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort quiet getaway, not for party people... more of a relaxing week with beautiful views bit not much around it ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Samantha, Bristol 7 Jun 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Basic but beautiful Arrival was very easy, the lady who met us from the taxi spoke good English and made sure we were settled. Rooms were clean and tidy, even if a little dated. Lovely, quiet pool, as well as on site activities such as pool, barbeques and table football. Tv was tiny and there was only four channels, but we didn't go there to watch tv. WiFi in the reception/pool area meant we could download films from Netflix to watch back in the apartment in the evening. Overall, would recommend for a nice quiet getaway. ##### Samantha Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mogens 19 Jan 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Skøn beliggenhed meget hyggelig bebyggelse som er pænt vedligeholdt både ude og inde.

Aangezien het zich in een klein gehuchtje bevindt, op rijafstand van strand en stad is een huurauto erg aan te raden als je met het vliegtuig reist. Onze gastvrouw Andrea was top, de accommodatie is eenvoudig maar ruim en netjes en bleef redelijk koel. Genoten van het zwembad, de omgeving, het strand, en alle uitstapjes. De Portugese mensen hebben wij als heel vriendelijk en geduldig in het verkeer ervaren. ##### Gezin van 5 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jim, london 8 Aug 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Ok for short stop over The pool is great but this for me it is not somewhere where I would spend an entire holiday. We used it for one night and it was clean but very basic and dated facilities. Having said that the staff were helpful and the location and setting was lovely. ##### Jim ### 8/10 Good #### Marius, Nottingham 1 Jul 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very nice but Carmen should revise her attitude The resort is very nice itself and clean, all self-catering equipment is good you can even get a spare barbecue and beach umbrella if you l ask Andrea, It is located not far away ocean shoreline(10 min run/15min walk though the beach is on the island so you have to get over it to enjoy it. Next beach is in Fuzeta(15min drive) or near tavira( 20min driving) Carmen (the cleaning lady) has a bit strange attitude to guests so I suggest that management have a word with her to be more friendly and helpful -it's not that bad how it sounds but could be better ##### Marius ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amanda, Portsmouth 24 May 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Loved the area, wonderful beaches and food nearby ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s716-p34d8af20-218d-11e6-b8c2-6e40709c5f2d-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Amanda ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [4 bedroom villa with private pool and garden in the center of Tavira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-4-Bedroom-Villa-With-Private-Pool-And-Garden-In-The-Center-Of-Tavira.h31892095.Hotel-Information) > > [Paraiso Albufeira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-Paraiso-Albufeira.h1197274.Hotel-Information) > > [AP Cabanas Beach & Nature - Adults Friendly](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-AP-Cabanas-Beach-Nature.h1094212.Hotel-Information) > > [NH Marina Portimao Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Tivoli-Marina-Portimao.h976931.Hotel-Information) > > [NAU Sao Rafael Suites – All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-Sao-Rafael-Suite-Hotel.h1210300.Hotel-Information) > > [Fazenda Nova - Country House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-Fazenda-Nova-Country-House.h22688513.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Muthu Forte do Vale](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-Grand-Muthu-Forte-Do-Vale.h7421149.Hotel-Information) > > [Pousada Convento de Tavira - Historic Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-Pousada-Convento-De-Tavira-Historic-Hotel.h1501824.Hotel-Information) > > [NAU Salema Beach Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vila-Do-Bispo-Hotels-Salema-Beach-Village.h15175162.Hotel-Information) > > [PortoBay Blue Ocean](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-PortoBay-Blue-Ocean.h14861176.Hotel-Information) > > [Authentic Tavira Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-Authentic-Tavira-Hotel.h37296909.Hotel-Information) > > [Vila Gale Tavira Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-Hotel-Vila-Gale-Tavira.h891219.Hotel-Information) > > [Golden Club Cabanas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-Golden-Club-Cabanas.h33456519.Hotel-Information) > > [Riverside apartment with private pool in old town - WiFi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-Riverside-Apartment-With-Private-Pool-In-Old-Town-Wifi.h33596494.Hotel-Information) > > [Tivoli Carvoeiro](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Tivoli-Carvoeiro.h891221.Hotel-Information) > > [Pedras da Rainha](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-Pedras-Da-Rainha.h1774812.Hotel-Information) > > [Ozadi Tavira Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-Ozadi-Tavira-Hotel.h2775409.Hotel-Information) > > [Tivoli Alvor Algarve Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Tivoli-Alvor-Algarve-Resort.h33811605.Hotel-Information) > > [Monica Isabel Beach Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-Monica-Isabel-Beach-Club.h1515542.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Cliffs Hotel, a Luxury Collection Resort, Algarve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-Pine-Cliffs-Hotel.h4071.Hotel-Information) > > [PortoBay Falésia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-PortoBay-Falesia.h1787641.Hotel-Information) > > [Secluded Villa With Heated Private Pool* Fully Refurbished And Modernised](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-Secluded-Villa-With-Heated-Private-Pool-Fully-Refurbished-And-Modernised.h19208279.Hotel-Information) > > [Rocha Brava Village Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carvoeiro-Hotels-Rocha-Brava-Village-Resort.h1111695.Hotel-Information) > > [AP Maria Nova Lounge - Adults Friendly](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-AP-Maria-Nova-Lounge.h1204797.Hotel-Information) > > [VILAPURA - Naturism](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-VILAPURA-Naturism.h44584463.Hotel-Information) > > [Jupiter Albufeira Hotel - Family & Fun - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-Jupiter-Albufeira-Hotel-Family-Fun.h27232572.Hotel-Information) > > [3HB Guarana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-3HB-Guarana-All-Inclusive.h4813341.Hotel-Information) > > [The Navigator - Solaqua](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-Luna-Solaqua.h4461872.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Cliffs Residence, a Luxury Collection Resort, Algarve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-Pine-Cliffs-Residence.h904328.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Rural Quinta do Marco](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tavira-Hotels-Hotel-Rural-Quinta-Do-Marco.h2688512.Hotel-Information)
