What a wonderful treat to visit Tavira and stay at this lovely quinta! We were so happy with the peaceful atmosphere and lush greenery we would absolutely stay here again. While not in the middle of town we found that to be a plus as it was a very short walk to the town center. The rooms are super charming and the owners (two sisters) are so helpful and nice! The pool was very refreshing on a hot August day and we found it more relaxing to hang out by the pool than go to the beach lol. Highly recommend a stay at Quinta do Caracol - you will love it!

What a wonderful place to stay. The staff is helpful and kind. Our room was unique - in a good way! The breakfast was wonderful - eggs, bacon, fresh OJ, and way more. The location was good for us. It took about 10 - 15 minutes to walk into town. Two grocery stores within 5 minutes. The grounds are gorgeous. And best of all, for my husband, there is pickleball on site. Highly recommend.

Our stay was very pleasant. The staff treated us very well and made us feel at home. The Araucaria casita was very nice and cozy, the breakfasts and the staff who prepared them are great, and the place and surroundings are fantastic. We spent a few spectacular days as a couple. We will definitely return.

Tavira is a lovely town, and Quinta do Caracol is an even more lovely place to stay! The ten minute’s walk from the town centre to the hotel was no problem for us, and when we arrived and entered the grounds, we immediately had the feeling to be in a peaceful oasis. Beautiful small individual buildings, each containing one of the hotel rooms – all individually equipped and decorated, with air conditioning and a small kitchen corner, and each with a private outdoor seating area. Everything in the room was very clean and of high quality. I loved relaxing in the beautiful and very well kept garden, in the shadow of a tree on a sunbed. And I loved the three little romantic garden ponds and to watch the cute tiny green golden frogs enjoy the sun and then jump into the water. Breakfast is delicious, with scrambled or fried eggs made to order and freshly squeezed orange juice. There is a large newly decorated breakfast room and a nice garden terrace for breakfast as well. For the sportive ones: The Quinta do Caracol even has its own tennis court. The ladies who own this family run hotel are very friendly, very likeable - and they went out of their way to help us when we had a small medical problem (at a quarter to ten p.m!) . If I ever go back to the Algarve I would even make a detour, in order to be able to stay once again in Quinta do Caracol, and to enjoy its peaceful and romantic atmosphere.

When looking for a long get away weekend in Tavira, we always choose this property. It is a unique and beautiful oasis within a 10-minute walk to the town center. The sisters and their staff do an amazing job. We love the breakfast with eggs made to order. Enjoy!
