    Pedras ďel Rai

    December 21, 2019 in Portugal ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

    Finally decided to book in somewhere for Christmas week so made the short journey from Tavira to Santa Luzia and Pedras ďel Rai holiday village. Booked a 1 bed villa at a very reasonable price (It is Christmas after all), parked the motorhome up nearby and proceeded to move clothes, food and everything we may need for the coming week. After a spot of lunch decided to try the air con/heating unit. It working. After attempts by park engineers we returned to reception to be offered another villa. Again neither us or the staff member that came with us could get the air con to work. Back to reception, sorry but we have no more of that accommodation so will have to upgrade you. Does it have a bath, Jayne asks. It has 3 bathrooms was the reply. So here we are in a 3 bed 3 bathroom luxury duplex apartment, at no extra charge saving us about £700.
    The weather has certainly turned too with sunshine flooding the terrace since we arrived.
    We made a shopping trip to Tavira yesterday to pick up the last few bits and are now chilling out and enjoying the sea view and sunshine.
