Vila Gale Tavira,
Tavira, Algarve, Portugal |
 |
|
|
|
|
Located in the centre of the traditional fishing village of Tavira, the modern Vila Galé Tavira occupies an ultra convenient location for golfers wishing to explore a true Portuguese village, while being close to some excellent courses.
You will not find a McDonalds, a "greasy spoon" or neon lights in Tavira; only traditional and charming restaurants and bars - a welcoming change for some! The hotel has pretty much all the facilities golfers require and accommodations match the usual high standards of the Vila Galé group. Highly recommended for those looking for a bit of the real Portugal. |
