Fab relaxed hotel

We loved our stay at this hotel. The hotel was stylish, relaxed and a few minutes walk into beautiful Tavira. The communal areas, rooftop bar, pool and breakfast were particularly good, drinks and bar food prices were very reasonable. The rooms were maybe not quite so stylish but very comfortable with good size balconies. Staff were v helpful and attentive. We would stay again.

This was our second stay at Maria Nova. All the staff are friendly, welcoming and hard working. Rooms are adequate and cleaned most days. Breakfast is very good considering it’s included in stay. Although hotel is beginning to look a little tired around edges. I think it is very well priced and should meet most people’s expectations.

This was a beautiful hotel that is fairly new. My husband and I stayed 3 nights and the service was good. The only complaint would be the beds. We found the beds to be sagging in the middle already and the quality of the pillows were not good at all. The rest of the hotel was fabulous.

Maybe wait a bit before booking this hotel...

2 things were good. The parking facilities and the rooftop terrace. The room was not very clean and needed some renovations. At check in the counter person served us a welcome drink while we were carrying our luggage! But the best is when we found out that our room was directly in front of a construction site!

We loved our 3 night stay in AP Maria Nova Lounge. We had a pool view room which had all the amenities and space you could need and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The choice and quality of food at breakfast were excellent and the gentleman playing the piano was a lovely addition. Whilst we didn't have an evening meal at the hotel because there was so much choice in town, which was a stone's throw away, we did go up to the bar on occassion which had wonderful views across Tavira and was reasonably priced. Finally the swimming pools and spa facilities were the icing on the cake! Yes there are some building works going on in the area but thay didn't stop our enjoyment and we would definitely go back.

Good, but …

Great place. Nice Breakfast and pool, steam bath and sauna. The only issue was a fairly strong sewerage smell coming from the bathroom, which meant we had to run the fan all night and keep the patio door open, which made it a bit noisy. It seems that the staff is aware of the issue, because they mentioned that sometimes it happens when the tide is low, which seemed a bit odd. Otherwise it was a nice place and would have given a very strong review but for this issue.

Overall a good hotel

The hotel was in a great location for walking into town. The staff were excellent. Our room provided all we required and was cleaned regularly and bedding and towels changed during our 8 night stay. However the fridge did not keep particularly cold and it would be helpful to have a freezer section for ice. The pool was a very good size but the sunbeds were dated. Overall we felt the hotel could do with updating. Although the breakfast provided many different options our feeling was that some could be better quality. The orange juice was watery (it did not help that nearly half the dispenser was ice so as that melted it became weaker!). We had seen several reviews before our stay mentioning this (especially when there are oranges growing locally!) and staff commented they’d look into this yet obviously nothing has been done. The bread and coffee were also poor. It does not appear you can book a room without breakfast which we would prefer in view of these aspects. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would book again.

I’ve been to Tavira 5 times now and this has been the best trip, the hotel was great, food was great and most of all the staff were amazing. As soon as we walked into the hotel we were greeted with a glass of wine, not a bad start. The pool and spa are lovely and well kept and the roof top bar has to be in my opinion the best view in the area. I would highly recommend this hotel and I will definitely return on my next visits.
