Good News for Portugal!


Portugal made the headlines recently in the UK press, reported as the best family value destination in Europe!    British researches found the Algarve region of Portugal to be the most economic to visit with Lisbon coming out as the second best city for short breaks. The stunning Algarve beaches were voted amongst the highest in the world.

According to the survey, in comparison to 2009, the average price of a meal has fallen by 47%, costing £15.89 for a 3 course meal with wine in a local Portuguese restaurant. Not only did Portugal come out top with restaurant prices, but also at the beach where it was reported that the average charge for one hours rental of a pedalo was almost half of the cost in France or Majorca.

Portugal is now being described as “this season’s bargain hotspot” by the Mirror, while The Sun has proclaimed that “Portugal pounds the competition to give you the best value for money this summer”.

It's no wonder Portugal remains one of the top destinations for Brits buying abroad! For more information on Compass Amazing Resorts in Portugal please click.
