Faro Airport drop off

HI all

I have to drop a guest back to Faro and have never actually had to do this before. Is there a charge for doing this or is there a grace period on the ticket you take when entering?

Cheers

Re: Taxes

Thanks all

It does appear to be an IMI bill. I guess I will need to pick up with fiscal rep/RB why this has come direct to me now and not been sorted internally.

Cheers

Re: Taxes

HI all I have today received a letter from AT autoridade tributaria e aduaneira. Is this an IMI bill does anyone know? I have never received bills previously as I believe they have been handled through Rocha Brava/fiscal rep. Is this something I now have to sort myself due to Brexit? Sorry for my ig...

Re: buying at rocha brava

In answer to your queries yes RB calculate the split of all bills, insurance etc and bill each individual owner for their share of costs. Wirh regard to painting yes this is done (externally) on a rota basis. ...

Re: very pleasant

Sounds good Pato but will they still do the rather tasty baguettes on the lunchtime menu?! My son will be mortified if not :D

Happy New Year all

Does anyone know whether there are plans to rebuild O Pirata following the fire last year? Our holiday last year was blighted by the lack of their pizzas and cold beer at lunchtimes!!

Cheers

Re: Faro Airport

Morning all Travelled back through Faro last night. Check in really easy, security very quiet, same with passport control. However once through to the food court it was not nice. Very little seating and a small area. Then the workmen started with the drills and you could hardly hear yourself think. ...

Re: Daikin Air Con

Hi Farol

I hadn't resorted to the turn it all off and turn it on again but will certainly give that a try :D

If not Mr Cool sounds like the solution.

Re: Daikin Air Con

Hi Guys

Thanks for the replies but no dice - I reset the clock, turned the timer off and have tried each remote with each unit. They are set to cool function and nothing else it turned on.

Any other thoughts greatly appreciated :-)

Daikin Air Con

Morning all I have 2 Daikin air con units and the remote controls are no longer working with the air con unit. I have put new batteries in the remotes, I can change the functions on the remote screen but I cannot turn the air con unit on or change the settings. Can't find any solutions on Daikin web...

Re: Travelrent

Just back and used Yor Car - Had a 3 year old Punto that had 60K on the clock and a smaller engine than the go kart I drove but pick up and drop off were easy and efficient and it got me from A to B when I needed it so happy enough.

Re: Go Karting Centre

Hi

I went for the first time with a group of 5 kinds and 3 adults. A very good setup - good karts, great track and very funny watching a bunch of 11 year olds trying to drive like Lewis and visiting every run off and gravel trap in site.

May Visit Restaurant Reviews

Thought I would post a few reviews of meals on recent visit - Think I will light the touchpaper and step back for responses on some judging on previous reviews but heyho! :D O Farol, Rocha Brava - Excellent couvert (includes small pickled fish which are delicious). All soups sampled (french onion, t...
