Default Woohoooo.....Holiday finally taking shape but need wee bit of help!
Long sigh of utter contentment.................. that's it, flights booked for an escape to the sun and a badly needed and well deserved 10 days of pampering and being waited on.

Just got accomodation to sort out. Do I go for the normal 4star and affordable hotel or do I throw caution to the wind (and risk the wrath of the bank manager)and go for the all out luxury 5* number?

Decisions,decisions - if anyone cares to offer any suggestions on accomodation they have experienced in Portugal - I'm flying into Faro so will be looking at the Algarve region - on the beach, near to the action but not right 'in' it, and a bit upmarket rather than an 18-30 type thing.

Has anyone particulary good things to say about a specific hotel that they've been to and experienced, and that you'd recommend?

Any suggestions welcomed!

Ta.!

This will suffice instead!


You're actually an embarrassment to the Scots...you do realise that!! But hey, kudos for getting the 2nd part of your user name spot on!

I am not being rude or annoying but I just wondered why you thought your holiday was deserved. maybe you are a nurse and have been working all over Christmas and new year etc

or maybe you have your own business and work 10 hours a day 7 days a week

that kind of thing

No I agree. You aren't being annoying or rude - what you are however, is doing nothing to actually contribute to the nature of my thread and just being a pain in the arse instead, and contributing absolutely nada to the question that was posed in my OP.

I don't have to justify to you why I feel a holiday is well deserved. I answered, but I certainly don't have to justify.

Time you moved out of the Highlands I think..... there's far too much mist and clouds up there and seems your head is securely fixed fast amongst them.
