Was left in a filthy Villa Canto in Vilamoura - had my rental car tyre constantly let down - I was overcharged for 2 coffees and charged 1.40 euros, I later ordered the same 2 drinks and told to pay 2.80 euros!! My kids were pushed by locals in shops and I felt unsafe and very scared there as no one wants to speak unless you are at the till. I was shocked to see in a very posh marina all walls and buildings had spray painting and vandalisim.. Do not carry a bag, I was robbed - I would advise you strap you're money to you - take bedding and cleaning products with you there and be prepared to pay if you need directions any where!!
