Re: Medical assistance
If you have a EHIC card you can get treated at the state hospitals for free. Back in 2007, when Lynda broke her ankle, there was a charge of €7.50 for A&E treatment, and after admission there was a daily charge of €5 to cover food etc. at the Barlovento Hospital in Portimao. This was with an EHIC c...

There is an excellent restaurant on site, and a bar/coffee shop, and at least eight other restaurants and centiannes beach within walking distance. We feel that t...

Always had excellent food and service here. The baked salmon with flaked almonds and roquefort sauce are to die for!

Re: Rocha Brava
As I understand it, because Rocha Brava is licensed as a Tourist Resort, the law only allows the management company, as the license holders, to let properties on the resort, regardless of ownership of individual properties. As such owners can only let through the management company, and cannot adver...

Re: Car Rental loyalties tested
We''ve used Zitautos for several years and always had good service and good cars from them. Their fuel policy is return with the same amount as when you picked it up, and that has never given me a problem. Also, I''ve never had to wait more than 24 hours for a reply to an online enquiry.

Re: clifftop boardwalk
For me is this very terrible. It was possible to make a walk without this boardwalk and it was really nice. What it the next project, concrete floor on the cliffs, or an escalator at the beach like in Albufeira? :evil: greetings Marlis It may well have been possible for you, but when completed it w...

Re: Rocha Brava admin
So far this summer we have only allowed the use of our apartment to a couple of friends. They collected the key from reception as normal, and weren't offered any alternative accommodation. I have never heard of attempts to switch accommodation in these circumstances before.

Thanks Jan & Mark, for several excellent meals as usual over the past three weeks. David particularly enjoyed sampling your new international menu on his birthday. We'll see you again later in the year.

I'll look forward to it, as long as he's better than the wandering minstrel who keeps turning up at Mona Lisa and Jardim do Farol, and whose repertoire doesn't seem to extend much beyond "Guantanamera" and "Never on a Sunday"pointersister wrote:Go back on a Sunday Mike, Adelino will be there strumming his stuff

Re: Vimar
We have been coming to CVO for over ten years now, but had never tried Vimar before. This time we decided to give it a try, as several of our favourites were closed. Our feeling is that it lacks something in terms of ambience, and the service was slower than I would have expected when only three tab...
