    Hi Mrs. O - that's a great deal. We stayed there AI last May and I thought it was a great hotel and resort. Friends of ours went back again this year.

    Would it not have been cheaper to book flights with Ryanair (cost £79.96 return for 2 people) and same hotel on Travelrepublic is £158.14 for 2 people bed and breakfast - total cost £238.10 (obviously doesn't include hold luggage)? Not sure how much Ryanair charges for hold luggage as we only ever take hand luggage even when we go to Albufeira for 2 weeks at end of October. Have a great time!

    EDIT 15kg hold allowance would be £30 per person so even with that extra £60 it will be £298.10

    That is who Lowcostholidays will be using to fly Mrs O to Portugal on this occasion judging by flight times - I don't see a problem with Ryanair - flown with them loads, no flight delays, always arrive early, no problem getting seats.

    That would have been cheaper! Ours includes transfers and £60 for luggage.

    Ah well, I'm still chuffed to bits with the deal we got!
    Glad to hear others think it's a good hotel!
