Robo20, In which location were you thinking of and when?

Lummie

First 2 weeks in July.
Sorry to leave so little detail.
The main issues are getting a room/rooms ajoining for the 5 of us, hence being so vague.
When you check online with tour companies, with limited time it is very hard to find family of 5 accomodation.
Ideally being central to a town, kids club and entertainment and large pool but not a necessity.
As long as its sunny!
Stayed at the Vilanova apartments in Sao Jao before which is the kind of place we are looking for. Not available now I believe.

Robo you can still do a DIY holiday and stay at the Vilanova, its still open, its only that it isnt a Thomson exclusive resort any more. See the other topic "Vilanova Sao Joao still available", Glynis has posted some links for various booking agencies and also the direct website..

Yup, started that topic as well
Seems awfull expensive now if you use their own website!
Alpha didnt come up with anything for the dates I need.

hi robbo
check out monarch . co .uk click on hotels , enter date details. on this site you can book rooms in vilnanova apts or they have other accomodations. i boked with them got a great deal.
hope this helps

Hi,

Look at the Vila Petra, close to the Vilanova and just 200yards or so from the Strip. Also when we were last at Club Praia D'Oura we had a 1 bed apt but there were 2 double sofa beds in the main room so will sleep 5/6. (There was a divider between the 2 areas with sofa beds as well).

Happy hunting,

Lummie.
