This is a complex not hotel and be prepared to accept this. Everything is scattered across , bar, dining, pools etc. The nice part is clearly the beach reached by free boat. The complex is dated, noisy with doors clunking, beds being dragged across tiled floors, in fact cleaning staff do this exceptionally well so no lie in. Off season so maintenance going on adding to noise and inconvenience. 4 night stay was plenty but not a place I’d recommend for any longer.
It was off season but still had options for where to eat, shop, and to go sightsee. The taxi company they use are good and reasonably priced for when the buses weren't available. The staff were super helpful and helped me make the most of my stay. I really enjoyed it and plan to return there in the future.

Late Break
We have been here in the past, as it is nice and peaceful this time of the year yet climate still hot and sunny. Entertainment and bar still going strong to end of October. You can walk to the train station & get to town 1euro something or visit other resorts off the same line- boat taxi ( free) to the beach which is first class - Depends what you are looking for - hustle & bustle or peace & quiet- well run large site would be great for the kids if they where not in school 🙂.

Great place for families with children
Great place for families. Weather in mid October was just beautiful, the outside pool was great for the kids. It was lovely and quiet during the Scottish October break so lots of sun loungers etc - guess it could get a bit crowded during peak season but that's the same everywhere. Hadn't planned on using kids club but the program was so nice that they ended up going a few times. Beach accessible by using a small boat which only takes a few minutes. Maintenance team were super quick and helpful (replaced an entire oven in less than an hour when it stopped working!).
A lovely waterfront location wasted by this property. Poorly maintained and ill equipped apartment for a long-term stay. Should be taken off-market until physical plant has been updated and thoroughly cleaned. Mandatory wearing of plastic wristband was useful only for boat ride to oceanfront. Indoor hot tub requires bathing cap (didn't know these still exist) and indoor gym costs extra. The entire property is an embarrassment to Portugal.
Great location near the quiet, natural beach, the fishing village and groceries.

Nice that they have a washing machine and the private beach is nice. I hesitate to write a negative review, but I feel very tricked by the website in this case. All apartments are smoking rooms and the first room we were given was so heavily filled with years of smoke we could not stay there with our infant and asked to change. We were moved to a nicer room (funny bc at check-in she gave me the option of both rooms initially and I said to please give us the nicer of the two). Furniture, floors, walls are all sparse and very dated/grungy. AC/Heat units did not work the whole time, electricity went out and we had to call and wait to get it restored when all we had on was 1 burner on the stove and the toaster. Posted activities but no staff there to facilitate, and upcharging for balls (10E) when website makes it look included. The purchase of swim caps for indoor pool is completely unnecessary if you know how to maintain the pool.
This is second visit since 3 years and there have been some updates to room. However in November it is lifeless and listless about place. Equally must be a monstrosity of an all inclusive at height of season. Clean room, towels, sheets. polite staff. Food at breakfast very pathetic for level of hotel. Probably won’t return.
Very close to the downtown area. Easy walk to the boardwalk and restaurants.
I was there in November but the weather was perfect sunny daily.

Pass on this property.
Very tired old property with a pretty 24-hr concierge. Onsite restaurant closed on first night. Managed to space our 2 rooms as far as possible. Can hear people coughing, scraping chairs and talking through poorly sound-proofed walls, floors and ceilings. Good for noisy young Northern European families but otherwise pass. 2 Euros a day for passport safe.

Great place, lots to do, perfect setting.
We've been going to Cabanas for 20 years and its our first stay at Golden Club. Fab place. Fantastic location at the west end of tge village looking out over the lagoon to the sea, beautiful. Two great pools and lots more to do, if you want. Our studio was perfect for 2. Little kitchenette were we did breakfast, plenty of room and the view from the balcony perfect, staff helpful and eager to please.
Free boat trips to the beach across the lagoon. Perfectly placed for access to Cabanas promenade. We hired bikes, just 10 euros for the day. Thoroughly enjoyed the stay and would go back to Golden club.
Great parking too
Bem obrigado.

Nice place and good prices on low season. Our apt had 2 bedrooms and it was comfortable even though it looked a bit "old". Outdoor pool was nice as well as the kids area. We got a little confused trying the indoor pool because they did not provide us any towel to dry up and it was not allowed to take towels from the room.

An average Portuguese hotel off season in December where no great interest shown by staff , no helpful information, no suggestions, a restaurant under refurbishment and told go straight out the door and walk to External restaurants.
The facilities off season limited to bar , swimming Indoor pool & gym (used pool nice but can’t hold huge no’s ) small sauna & steam room.
It is set up for summer all inclusive where entertainment & outdoor facilities come to life. There is a free boat service to island where you a beautiful long sandy beach and Is beautiful.
You are a distance from Tavira worth a visit , can reach from local train station which is about mile & half to walk to. Explore Cabanas & back streets , little local dining places & bars offer good value for food & drinks it doesn’t all have to be down the front & walk way.
Acid test would I return probably not although Cabanas de Tavira is a pretty place.
