A customer from ROTHERHAM who stayed at 3* Oasis Village in Vilamoura - The Algarve wrote this review.
We only went on a 3 day break. The apartments were very clean and had ample facilities for eating in. They were situated in nice surroundings and there was two other complexs where you would use the facilities nearby. The restaurant on site was very reasonable, food was well presented and of a high standard and the staff were very good. The Marina and beach were about 25 minutes walk but there was a bus or train or at night 4 euros in a taxi. However there were several bars and restaurants just a short distance away - 5 minutes. We went to a Brazilian restaurant which was excellent. A little more expensive than the others but well worth it. Beautiful surroundings, lovely food and great entertainment. If you want to go on any trips or simply get around the island then see Gary with the big hat in reception and he can arrange it for you. The pool area was very good but I would imagine quite busy at peak times. All in all a very nice complex.

A customer from Ambleside who stayed at 4* Vila Gale Tavira in Tavira - The Algarve wrote this review.
The eastern Algarve is characterised by its endless sandy beaches, which are excellent for walking as well as for sitting on. We parked at Manta Rota and walked to Monte Gordo and back. With a selection of beach bars en route and a range of places for lunch at Monte Gordo, this makes an excellent day. If you want an even longer walk, carry on to Ponta de Areia, the most south-easterly point of the Algarve with views into Spain. For more varied scenery, with low cliffs, park at Cabanas and walk to Cacela Velha with its dramatic fortifications. Cabanas has many cafes and bars. Another fascinating walk is to park at the western end of Santa Luzia and take the pontoon-like footbridge to the Ilha de Tavira. From here the footpath follows a causeway (complete with little train) through salt marshes brimming with bird life. This leads to a stunning,long beach.
