I just returned in March from a 3-month stay in Tavira (85 days, so I had a bit of a buffer on the 90 day rule). Because I rent directly from a property management firm, it is much cheaper than going through places like AirB&B, VRBO or an aparthotel. I had a lovely self-contained house all to myself within a 5 minute walk to the Roman Bridge (1 bedroom/1 bathroom, 2 outdoor patios, a fully equipped kitchen and sitting room) and it was just less than 3,000 euros for the entire time. I prefer that to a hotel environment, as there is more privacy and less hustle and bustle around me...but of course to each their own. I think it is worth finding a property management firm where you wish to go and contact them direct to get prices for your preferred dates. Happy travels, everyone...

I would totally upgraded my hotel and do other little luxuries instead of paying 5000 extra for 6.5 hours flight. With this extra you could stay in a luxury/ very decent hotels for 2 months. Totally not worth the splurge on the flight on the account of staying in "tired" hotel

Good for you for splurging on the flight upgrades! I’m 6’5” so I struggle in economy class despite having to bear it throughout my career. Now I’m retired, I’m flying in comfort or not at all. Our first long term trip likely will be to the Algarve!
@ronnie91878 ай бұрын
It is definitely worth the extra cost. I often sit with my 6'2 already with my knees against the front seat, which is tolerable on short flights but not on long flights. Booking an upgrade at the flight exit or comfort plus often gives you that extra bit of room for long flights. Certainly if you as tall as you are.

Great video, we watched it twice. We did a 3 week trip to Portugal in March. Nice one week hotel stays Lisbon, Portugal and the Algarve. It worked out to $180 CAD per day food included. We found that we could eat in non tourist restraunts + some groceries for less than the cost of groceries in Canada. The food in Portugal was actually much better. BUDGET TIP: always subtract the costs you would have had to pay back in Canada ( heat, groceries, entertainment, gas, etc ) from your actual trip costs. That shows you the real net cost of the trip and should you to justify more travel.

we go out every couple of weeks.... our bank account gives us frequent miles with American Airlines... with those points they pay for the Air fare... the rental car... and the hotel stays... so we only pay for our parking at the airport and drinks while we are out... everything else is free with the use of the frequent miles... with the bank you don't even have to have a credit card...

Agreed. We will fly Business Class for the 12+ hour flights - there's an obvious improvement in the travel experience over those longer durations. But after doing many of those longer flights, a trans-Atlantic flight almost seems like a puddle jump and I wouldn't want to pay much extra for such a "short" run. I'd spend the money more as you suggest - at destination.

We book the basic fare then add Option Plus for around $200 each. Includes priority check in, one bag , seat selection and a drink. There is a small number of seats in twos near the back and we always book them if available. Definitely not as good as club class but for the difference in fare, we feel it’s pretty close and a LOT cheaper.

I may miss the hotter weather but I’m sure the beautiful scenery of the Algarves will more than make up for it. Tina, good job convincing Norm to book Club Class on AT! I booked the same for my trip.

I frequently go to Portugal and the Algarve and 14,000 is quite high but everyone has their own desires. Although I wouldn't spend that much on a flight, I always try to find a deal for under 800$, you are right Tina. You should splurge and treat yourself if that is what you enjoy. I'm sure some others spend even more then 14,000. Just so people out there know you can pay less for accomodations and food just depends what you are looking for. Your travel tips on the local buses were awesome. Thanks for sharing!

Bolt is less expensive in Albufeira. But in travel outside of Albufeira, we found Uber was a bit better in rates. Of course the Drivers in most cases work for both and vehicles are equipped to respond to customers using the Bolt or Uber app. We will be returning for 2025 trip to Albufeira as well.

The supermarket Mercadona deliver groceries to your apartment - right into your kitchen if you wish. Valencia is a beautiful city with very efficient and cheap public transport. Definitely worth a visit, although not the cheapest accommodation. You can get the train from Valencia to Alicante city. Takes around 2 hours and is a reasonable price if you can book in advance.
