Re: Lunatic staff at A Rede continued

I was also put off for many years by the staff shouting across the road and vowed not to give them our trade. However, one dark night last November we ventured in due to the rain. We have been back many times since and find the staff amongst the nicest and most entertaining in the area. Nothing is t...

Re: Car hire and the new Airport Tax system

Hi Mardi
as you were dealt with off site, does this mean you do not pay the €15?
on another thread, we were querying why the cars collected at P1 are being charged the ANA tax

Re: Car Hire Pick Up P4

Interesting observation from satsuma regaring pick up at P1
We used Travel Rent and the process was very efficient both on pick up and return. Used P4 kiosk as normal then collected from P1 just across the way
€15 was charged but as satsuma pointed out - why?

Re: Where do you take visitors when they come to Carvoeiro?

I agree with Vilajoya and Rei Das Praias but I recently had my worse meal since I started visiting the Algarve in terms of service, taste and value at Wolf.

Re: Car Hire Pick Up P4

We use Travel rent and no issues on collecting. The car was parked in P1. As with everyting Portuguese, its just more expensive for the tourist!
€15 tax to ANA plus the Transponder €20 which both have to be paid in cash.
Returning on 4th but do not anticipate any issues.

Re: Car hire and the new Airport Tax system

Steen is going to see it from the business view point and the property owners are going to have their own views which obviously differ. We were one of the first to return our car on 1 March after a late Feb break in CVO, and the Car Rental companies did not appear to have a contingency and appeared ...

The locals complain that t...
