RED,
no, it's just that me and Mrs Captain were over that way earlier this year
. We stayed at a place called Dom Pancho Villas (in the shadow of the Bull ring, BA). Not exactly 5*, but did the job with regard to a plce to rest our heads after exploring the Algarve. We loved the place, once you got away from all the suedo English bars and fish and chips, and saw Portugal for what it is, a very relaxing country with really friendly people
.
Yes BA we are jealous of you being there. Try not to get sun burnt too badly. Enjoy the break.
Captain
