Goodbye the Algarve, hello the Alentejo!
 
“The Portuguese are wise; they keep the best for themselves: their finest wines, their choicest olives, and the beaches of the Alentejo. Let the foreigners crowd the Algarve, they say, waving them south, while themselves choosing to linger in the Alentejo, lounging languidly on its vast empty beaches and quiet, concealed coves.”
 
Sounds dreamy, right? And now that Portugal has been given the green light for international travel, here's why you should consider a summer getaway to this oft-overlooked corner.
 
What’s more, our friends over at Sunvil are here to sweeten the deal. They’re offering travellers to the Alentejo region two free PCR tests per person for stays of five nights or more. This will save visitors a whopping £120 – all the more reason to start booking!
