Fancy a great weekend in the Algarve?

Luxury hotel Vale d’Oliveiras Quinta Resort & Spa, located in the Western Algarve near Carvoeiro, has launched a top value weekend package for golfers.

The special offer is based around the Gramacho or Vale da Pinta courses alongside two nights’ 5* accommodation and costs from as little as £156 per person.  The package also includes a spa treatment, breakfasts and a 3-course evening meal.

The Resort, which has traditionally been popular with Dutch and German markets, is looking to advance into the UK market in 2012.   

“The Algarve has enjoyed a bumper 2011 with tour operators reporting UK visitor numbers are rising due to a strong demand for value-led deals from holidaymakers,” said  Jorge Almeida, General Manager for Vale d’Oliveiras Resort & Spa.

“This proves encouraging for Vale d’Oliveiras as our experiences fit with UK requirements; we are within close driving distance to the beautiful fishing village and beach of Carvoeiro with easy access to the region’s major golf courses. We also offer both hotel and self-catering options and one of the best spas in the Algarve in a secure, gated property.”

He added “Latest figures show the Algarve welcomed over 1,762,667 visitors to Faro airport in 2011, an increase of 13.4%, hence we are making sure the UK market is a key priority for our 2012 season.”
