My boyfriend and I stayed at Tipi Algarve this summer and it was FANTASTIC! Set in a quiet secluded sun drenched valley, only a few mins drive away from the main town and beaches of Portimao, it was the perfect location. We stayed in a 2 person tipi which was quite spacious and had a cozy double bed. We had... More

If you are looking for a different holiday and really want to chill out and de-stress I can think of no better place. I booked Tipi Algarve after my reluctance to book yet another 'hotel' holiday this year. After a stressful year both myself and my partner were desperate for some peace and quiet and chill out time before work... More

This beautiful site is the ultimate in peace and space. We were looking for relaxation following stress at work and this we certainly got, I never seen a sky filled with so many stars. The remote position of this site makes it feel like you are a million miles from other tourists, although you are only 15mins drive to the... More

We went here as we really wanted to get away from it all and we didn't want to stay in a packed hotel full of Brits - so this was perfect for us! We had a great time at Tipi Algarve, the staff are friendly, but not over-bearing and there's a great atmosphere which is friendly and relaxed. We also... More

We had an absolutely wonderful time, from the picturesque location to the friendly faces. I don't think we could have been better looked after. We would definitely recommend it to anyone. There is loads to do in the local area, we were only there for 1 week but could have stayed much longer if we had the time. Definitely somewhere... More

You should try this experience, its worth it; you would definitly love sleeping in a tipi and enjoy the amazing vegetarian lunches. The good thing there is that you can either have a quiet and relaxing holiday or an adventurous and sporty one depending on your mood. Sam, Calvin, Chief, Sunny and all the volunteers make your stay unforgettable.
