The only item I can say wasn't 100% to my satisfaction was the water pressure in the shower. I know I'm nitpicking. The breakfast was wonderful and there were so many different cheeses to try (7? 8?) and breads to choose from.

Excellent hotel with great staff. The only downside was the over-priced and not very good restaurant.... we would have chosen to dine elsewhere except for the rain.

Peaceful

The convent is on the top of the hill next to the castle. We enjoyed staying in a place with such history. Tavira is a quiet town, we enjoyed walking along the river.

Beautiful hotel with outstanding service

I cannot recommend this hotel enough. It was our first stay at a Pousada and it will definitely not be our last. We were given an upgrade to a suite on arrival which made our stay even better. The staff are all very friendly and efficient - first class level of service.

Historical luxury….

Beautifully restored monastery. Was a delight to stay and explore the building and its surroundings. Our room was a good size, very comfortable and had all the amenities we required. Evening meal was very enjoyable and good value. Good choice at Breakfast. We will definitely use other Pousada hotels in the Algarve.
