  This article was written by Algarve Life Stripped Naked: Sitting here gazing at the crinkled velvet ocean, even though the eggs benedict are fabulous, but I am half regretting my decision to make this my breakfast stop. Reason 1) I noticed the lobster tank on arrival and the cheeky crabs and lobsters waving at me and almost shouting ʻhey blondie, pick meʼ !!! Reason 2) I have just seen their evening menu. Reason 3) I really want to sample ALL of their deserts Reason 4) It is a really romantic location and Iʼm here on my own!!! As the name Sandbanks suggests, it is perfectly situated at the end of the Praça with a spectacular view over the Atlantic, and…

  This article was written by Algarve Life Stripped Naked: With a very Italian flair and feel, La Terrazza is authentic in its dishes and surroundings. Right in the heart of the Praça and next to Montys where I do admit to a few excellent nights out recently! The elegant dining room is Italian themed, but as the weather is so good I chose to sit on the terrace. There is also a great view of the centre stage here, so not only can you worship the heavenly nights here, you can listen to the entertainment! The one big thing I have noticed amongst all the places I have visited in the Praça, is the seamless way all things flow. I…

Essential dining, including meat and fish, there is something for everyone on this menu. Seated outside the striking red and black restaurant on the terrace, I order the Salmone Marinato,( fresh salmon marinated with ginger lemon & herbs, finely sliced over toasts ), followed by Tagliatelle al Spinaci, ( ribbon pasta with spinach, diced bacon, fresh cream and parmesan ). Vale do Lobo Praça is like a friendly little village. The elderly couple doing their crossword and noisily challenging each other over the correct answer from yesterday…

  This article was written by Algarve Life Stripped Naked: Well I must say I am thoroughly enjoying my time in Vale do Lobo, and my evening is being spent at Montys in the Praça. The terrace is invitingly lit, when you enter through the Montys signature doors, the decor of the main bar area that greats you is that of ʻstylish clubʼ. Reminiscent of a few old London haunts from back in the 80ʼs, I smile with nostalgia. Already I love this place, the atmosphere is spot on, groups of diners, families, golfers, couples. I feel comfortable here. I wonder around looking at the ʻWalls of Fameʼ as ! wait for one of the owners, Ian Digby. Mr charm himself…

  This article was written by Algarve Life Stripped Naked: The location of Breeze in Vale do Lobo is a total ʻWOWʼ. A cool, sophisticated contemporary deck bar overlooks the stunning golden beach. Pure, clean lines and comfortable modern seating along with the sail shades, set the attention to detail for which Breeze is renowned. It was my absolute delight to watch the romantic sun set from here with my someone special, whilst sharing a wonderful bottle of Giroflé vinho verde and eating our mouth watering “Bulhão Pato” clams and Beef Carpaccio with truffle oil. The Razor-clam rice for 2 was incredible. The perfect meal, in the most perfect setting culminated in the symphonic Fondante de Chocolate! Owners James and Liza Carter have created not only a beautiful…

This article was written by Algarve Life Stripped Naked: When we move to sunnier climates, we love the fresh new and safe lifestyle we hope it offers. It does in deed, but it also pays to feel secure too. Villa Watch offer Alarms and CCTV systems from basic systems to those that are internet linked where you can view your home from afar! I can see why Villa Watch are the personally recommended security company in The Algarve. There are no ʻifsʼ or butsʼ when talking with Carl Nixon the CEO of Villa Watch, he is by far the most technically astute person I have met. His security knowledge is astounding, and to whatever your budget, they have a system to suit. Site surveys are free of…
