Praia da Luz Holiday Last Minute Deals
Ah its Summer time, lots of parties, loads of sunshine and good times in the beaches, so here in Luzholidays the summer bookings have been going pretty good this year (as is the weather by the way), but as always there are dates that cant be booked easily, clients that stay for 2 weeks and a half or weekend clients or 9 days, so this year with the new site we decided to create a section for those villas, apartments, cottages that still have available dates or just properties we got a especial discount price to offer, for last minute holidays or just better dates.
You can visit the Holiday Deals Section to check all the properties, we have some lovely villas like Villa Acácias 16, Casa Dow and much more properties for last minute vacations at much better prices, and as always you can just inquiry for any property and we will give you alternatives including the ones with lower prices, for your dates.
Why Hire a Car with LuzHolidays
Well we do realize there are a lot of car hire companies and as always some are better than others, but car hire is not just another service we offer, as always we want to give you a value added service, so by booking your holiday car through us you actually have several advantages that you might not get by going to another car hire that looks good on paper, such as:
- We take care of all the preliminary procedures and reserve your car for you;
- We only offer Car Hire with fully comprehensive Insurance Included;
- Our prices are All Inclusive, unlike with other Car Hire Services, you will never have nasty surprises with added or extra charges;
- We make sure you have your car waiting for you upon arrival, if there is a delay or cancellation on your flight you can rest assured that whenever you arrive, your car will be there for you;
- Baby Chairs, Boosters, Roof Racks are all available for free (just ask for it);
- We support Multiple Drivers, again with no extra charge, while with some car hire companies, you have to pay extra for more than one driver;
- No Age Limitation in Price, some car hire companies charge you more if you are under certain ages, we don’t;
- Rental Car Agencies stationed at Airports usually include more fees and taxes;
- As always you can contact us for help in any situation while you are in your holiday with us, so of course if you booked your car hire with us, we will be more able to help you with any problems you might have with your car hire.
You can book your car hire by contacting us, and get more info on our car hire page.
Note: Sorry, the car on the picture is not available for car hire :)
Adopt a New Pet
The Lagos City Hall, has been struggling for quite some time now with its kennel, so it has decided to start a campaign of adoptions called “Ganhe um Novo Amigo” (translated: Win a New Friend), in hopes that a lot of the current residents of the kennel can find a good home and open space for more animals on the kennel, as well as to stop putting animals to sleep.
Any animal offered for adoption will have all its shots as well as a identity microchip.
Also in regards with the adoption program, each week a new animal will be chosen as a highlight and that animal will have all its taxes, shots, microchip for free.
The Municipal Kennel is always open to everyone during the week, from 8h30 to 12h00 and from 13h00 to 16h00, also its open in the last Saturday of the Month from 9h00 to 12h00 for anyone that wants to adopt but cant come during the week.
Anyone interested can get more information by calling the kennel service through the phone at 282 798 496 or visit the Lagos City Hall Website.
Two New Houses
Summer bookings are coming strong so we are adding two brand new houses to meet with the demand, both we are featuring on the main page, both have been renovated and are looking beautiful,

Villa Almarsa - View of Pool Patio
first is Villa Almarsa, located in the slope of Praia da Luz, so it has a really nice view of Luz and its garden, its spacious and comfortable with a really nice swimming pool,

Apartament 2F - View from Balcony
the second is Apartment 2F more inside Luz, its a small apartment but really nice with modern furniture and a view of Luz (since in the last floor).
Iceland Volcano Ash Cloud
Well with the Iceland Volcano Ash Cloud a lot of people are stranded throughout Europe, the same goes here, as some of our clients are unable to take a flight back home as well as some clients are unable to take a flight for their holidays in Praia da Luz (some are just taking their cars and drive here ^_^), as we reshuffle bookings our main concern is that our clients have all the support they need to get back home or to stay a couple of days more waiting for a flight after the airports open again, as always we are all day available at the office as well as through our phone and e-mail.
On another note, last Friday was a bit cloudy and windy and wavy, it was still quite warm so a lot of people went to the beach ^^ but today Monday it was even better.
ps: sorry i took those with my phone camera….
IX Feira do Folar e da Gastronomia Local
In the Cultural Center of Barão de São João in the 3rd and 4th of April, between 3pm and midnight, you can enjoy your easter weekend by visiting the 9th local easter fare, that has local craftsmanship as well as local dishes and the traditional easter sweet, the folar (its a sort of sweet bread with a whole egg inside).
There will be several musical acts as well as a folar contest and a easter themed exibit through out the township, seems like a good time to me ^_^
A more complete easter fare program is here (sorry its in portuguese).
Happy Easter.
