Hi njc0607

Many thanks for the reply. The 5 or 6 you mention, do you know the names of them or do they vary each year. Just want to book somewhere so at least we have somewhere to go on the 25th

Thanks

Phil

We have for the first time booked a little break from 24/12 to 29/12 at Colina Verde. We are just wondering how many of the restaurants will be open during this period or is it too early to say. We are not too bothered about Christmas dinner on the 25th, tbh want to avoid it if possible !! Chinese, ...

Spoke to owner whilst there and he didnt give any indication that he would close during quieter months.

It sells bags of crusty rolls, sliced bread for toasting.

Just returned from another fantastic 2 weeks spent in CVO. As people are probably aware the mini market at MC closed some 12-15 months ago. However I was pleased to see that a little shop has opened at the entrance to the complex not 30 yards from the mini market. It sells the most basic items inclu...

Morning All, It does 2 routes, 1 out to Rocha Brava , up Restaurant Hill to Rocha Brava and back down into CVO past GNR station. The other route goes on the out road to the outskirts of CVO, into Monte Carvoeiro and back into CVO down the hill past Indian, Sullys etc. It doesnt stop on either route,...

All,

Still no contact, apology, refund from this company.

Never use them, a bunch of liars and thieves.

Thanks Michael/laserblazer, it would seem we are not on our own.

How dare this company continue to take peoples hard earned money without a care for the consequences, missing flights, no money to pay for taxi's etc.

An absolute disgrace.

Thanks for interest. No I havent received any refund, nor am I likely too. ATD are now not responding to any of my e-mails, requesting an update of where my refund is. The last e-mail was to say "it will be refunded in the proper time" !!! I have requested contact name and postal address so we can g...

We booked a return transfer with the above. Pick up at Faro was fine, upon arrival in CVO we were asked to pay the full return fare 90 euros. On the morning of departure , after 20 mins waiting for car to arrive, I rang them and they told me the minibus had 'broken down' Instead of sending another c...

Hampshirerich,

I also feel that Stan Mortensen would also be a bit miffed too. as if my football memory serves me right he scored a hatrick in the 53 Cup Final and doesnt merit a mention.

We have been going to 'O Cantinho' for many years now, and never been disapointed. I'm sorry you had a bad meal. We have always found the Service polite and professional . The food is always well cooked. My partner always has the Veal with Mushrooms, loves it. I myself love the Sardines Algarvian st...

We have just returned from another wonderful week in CVO, beautiful weather, lovely food, great staff, we also visited in July for 2 weeks. During these 3 weeks we saw nothing of this so called "rowdiness", yes the occassional loud british tourist, who should know better,( we are not talking 18-25 y...

Lovely property, even better if you have upstairs apartment, the roof terrace covers the whole of the roof of the apartment, but is a good 25-30 mins walk into the Square. We walked most nights ,but taxi back !!! approx 5-6 euros. There is a mini supermarket on Rocha Brava , access is through gates ...
