I'm thinking of doing this  one on 8th. October. I hope to fly from Bristol. Is anyone else going or has done the  holiday and have any tips or recommendations? I read a  message from someone who had reservations about the hotel. I should say that I have stayed in two Vila Gale hotels, the one in Tavira and the Marina hotel in Vilamoura (twice)  I had no problems and found them excellent places to stay.

Hi Gwyn - I am doing this trip also. Have not booked any trips yet but will do on arrival. Like you I stayed in one of their hotels in Lagos, Portugal previously and found it good - all the independent reviews seemed to say it was good.
