Algarve Campsites

Camping and the Algarve seem to go hand in hand! The Algarve has an excellent climate all year round, with sun and blue skies most days and only infrequent patches of rain, it also has an abundance of beautiful settings for campsites. This probably explains why there are so many campsites and caravanning sites around the Algarve, which are very popular even in the winter months. If you are going to camp in the Algarve you should probably think about getting a “Camping Card International” (CCI). This is an identification document, valid for 12 months that can be used instead of leaving your passport with the campsite office, to use to secure your space instead of leaving a deposit or it can cover third party insurance claims. Some campsites or caravanning sites may not actually let you on to their site without a CCI, and if you’re lucky, some sites may even give you a discount for presenting your card! Camping outside of official grounds is not really approved of in the Algarve and is actually forbidden on beaches, in urban areas and within 1km of a campsite so always try to make sure you have a campsite sorted for the following day before you go off exploring!

Whether you're a family or couple, a Eurocamp camping or self catering holiday in the Algarve can be as relaxing or as varied as you want it to be. Make the most of the Algarve's stunning beaches and beautiful countryside and book the Valverde Parc (Praia da Luz), Alger Seco Resort (Praia do Carvoeiro) or the Quarteira Holiday Park!

Algarve Pousada Hotels

Pousada hotels offer some of the most attractive accommodation in the Algarve. The name 'pousada' takes its name from the Portuguese verb pousar, meaning to rest and this represents the ideology behind their design. In the early 1940s, António Ferro, a poet, playwright and politician, had the idea of creating hotels that were both rustic and genuinely Portuguese, easily identified by their grace and elegance. This concept was embraced by the Portuguese goverment and pousadas started to be formed, either converted from historic properties, intended to preserve national architectural history, or purpose built in locations of outstanding natural beauty.

Pousada hotels are run to the highest standards and provide visitors with servings of traditional cuisine and regional wines, in places adorned with historic artefacts or lavish furnishings and located in some of the more beautiful settings in Portugal. They are often situated away from popular tourist areas to ensure the tranquillity needed for guests to appreciate the tradition and culture of the Portuguese people. There are now four Pousada Hotels in the Algarve, in Estoi (near to Faro), São Brás de Alportel, Sagres and Tavira:

	Combining the best of old and new, Pousada De Estoi features 63 guest rooms, most of which are in the modern annex. Enjoy a swim in the outdoor pool or soak up the sun while reading a book on your very own balcony. The palace itself includes Versailles-style gardens and tea pavilions, perfect for exploring after a dip in the indoor pool or sauna visit!
	Pousada do Infante de Sagres hotel has an amazing location right on the coast, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The area is perfect for a relaxing holiday strolling along the deserted beaches or discovering the beautiful region. It also offers excellent facilities such as an outdoor swimming pool, tennis courts, and a restaurant serving first class cuisine.
	Pousada de São Brás de Alportel is with no doubt in a privileged location to get to know the Algarve! It is a charming hotel located in the Algarve mountain range, only half an hour from the coast and near the most famous beaches in Portugal. The Pousada São Brás de Alportel has and still maintains the most genuine characteristics of the region's culture.
	Traditional architecture and a sense of luxury await you at the Pousada de Tavira, located in historic Tavira and radiating a welcoming atmosphere. Enjoy a cup of coffee soaking up the afternoon sun in the courtyard. The restaurant serves delicious cuisine in an elegant atmosphere, with special theme nights proving especially fun.
