A beautifully designed conversion of ancient, crumbling property into a hospitable, comfortable guest house full of individual, well planned features which made our stay a real pleasure. Andy and Tamsin were kind and attentive hosts, and we immediately felt welcome and at ease. The lounge, with its picture window revealing a pretty garden area, was available at all times, and...

Up a narrow cobbled street, just five minutes from the main church in the heart of old Tavira, behind a small door, is this perfect oasis of hospitality. When you look at the state of the building next door, you realise what an achievement it was for Andy and Tamsin to convert this one into a charming, well-thought out, home... More

Stayed for a week at Calcada. Andy and Tamsin excellent hosts. Breakfast of fresh fruit, coffee/tea, croissants, toast, yoghurt on the sunny rooftop terrace a delight. Spotlessly clean. By the time we left it felt a home from home.

I really enjoyed my stay at the lovely decorated Calcada guesthouse. The warm hospitality and the gorgeous breakfast made it a perfect holiday! I’ll definitely recommend it to whoever heads for Portugal and I hope I’ll be able to come back soon.

The location is excellent with all the eating places and a free car park within a two minute walk. The rooms were brand new, spotless, modern and decorated in a very tasteful style. The beds were very comfortable and... More

The Calcada Guest house is a cute little place, new, and very cozy and comfortable. Andy and Tamsin, the owners, live there and are very friendly and accommodating. After choosing this place randomly at the last minute, without knowing anything about it, nor about the town of Tavira, we were very pleasantly surprised to see how pleasant the place was,... More

Have been to Tavira on numerous occasions but this is the first time at this guesthouse. The owners were lovely, breakfast delicious, best sleep for a long time and amazing roof terrace. Would definitely recommend it. Thanks, will be back soon.
