Going back over the old posting I realised that I hadnt said that my e mails are all functionong perfectly again. The joys of the internet when a "host" goes bust.

How is the site coming on Jayjan?

I have just returned from a first visit to Portugal and used Alan Sutton's services for transfer from Faro airport to Albufeira and return. He provided a very comfortable, friendly and completely reliable service. I have no hesitation in recommending him.

why dont you try http://www.ownersinportugal.org is name is Alan Sutton originally from the UK but now lives on the Algarve. He does an excellent personal airport transfer service with a reasonable charge maybe one of the cheapest around. Regards Jayjan

Looking on luxclube site the charge is 40 euros from faro to albufeira not 25 as you say, that charge applies only to villamoura why dont you be honest cos honesty pays in the long run if you want to generate business.I own on the Algarve and look well into airport transfer charges for my guests and your site gives a different price appertaining to Albufeira.Hope I havnt offended you but as i said earlier dont mislead. Regards Jayjan

try Balta Tours fax no: 00351 289 543047 we use them all the time ,
very reliable just fax your flights details over, and landing time and they will be waiting as you come though customs. A mini bus will take you to
albufeira about 28 euros one way, i believe a cab is about 40 euros now.

Hi All ,
Just a quick note for anyone looking for transfers or apartments / villas in the Algarve .

We have just returned from albufeira and had a fantastic time .

We used a company called xxxxxxxxxx to rent our villa and they also came to pick us up at the airport .

The villa was excellent and so was the service .

Even better was that they are an English company and so no language barrier .

Excellent villa , prices and service , we will be using them again in the future

Check them out on xxxxxxxx

David ... we always like to hear the recommendations of holidaymakers who are genuinely satisfied with the companies which they have used. But I'm a bit puzzled as to why this company which you have used and are so keen to recommend just happens to have the same e-mail address as you.

Could you perhaps explain ??

David :hmmm

well spotted Dave (Ht Moderator)/Manuel. I also thought it strange that he has just had an holiday in Albufeira, and on another query about the sereia da oura apartments he says he lives on the algarve and his job is doing airport transfers. Very coincidental to me. Its nice to honest because deceit does not pay. Also Algarveholidays has two names Dale & David. Regards Jayjan

Can anybody give me the names of companies they have used who provide a reliable, value-for-money transfer from airport to resort service?

By the way, I booked the well-located Ourasol Apartments today via last-minute.com. I am a little wary since nobody who frequents this forum seemed to have been there. I have a feeling I might still be the first person to submit a review when I return towards the end of August.

Looking forward to the holiday though, especially as my family all love the sun and there seems to be a great variety of activities and restaurants/bars to go to.
