Which resort Anna?

Not sure possibly Praia da Rocha or Albufeira. Have been to Praia da Rocha but was only 14 at the time which was 15 years ago.

I am now 29 probably last holiday before I have a family and really need a break as haven't been away abroad for 3 years.

Personally, out of the two, I prefer Albuferia. The Brisa Sol get good reviews. I haven't stayed there but there are central to both the Old Town and the New Town. There's plenty of bars/restaurants/shops nearby also.

I am looking to book with Cosmos as I work in the accounts dept of a travel agents and will get the best discount. I did look at your suggestion but it is too expensive. I notice that there are no cosmos apartments / hotel reviews for any featured in there brochure?

Can you narrow it down to a few different sets of apartments Anna - maybe the ones in your price bracket ?

Perhaps then someone might come on the forum who knows some of them by name and has stayed recently.

Also, Anna if you list the apartments available from Cosmos I'll add them for you
