Have a Christmas break to remember... Wrap up your Christmas and celebrate your Christmas in style with a nice holiday home in the Algarve! If you fancy getting away from the hustle and bustle of Christmas, then do try the Algarve! Christmas decorations go up in the towns and villages and the palm trees along the water front promenades sparkle with Christmas lights. There are plenty of restaurants open offering traditional Christmas dinners or have a nice, cosy Christmas dinner at your holiday villa! All the traditional foods for Christmas are available - turkey, cranberry sauce, bread sauce (if you don't make your own!), stuffing mixes and chestnuts aplenty. Turkeys are usually fresh and in all the supermarkets and butchers. Portuguese Christmas Christmas celebrations in Portugal traditionally start on December 8th, (the day of 'Our Lady of the Conception') and end on twelfth night. Christmas itself is celebrated on Christmas Eve night with a big family meal, traditionally of 'bacalhau' (salted cod fish), and lots of delicious savoury and sweet nibbles. ('Fatias Douradas' - slices of bread dipped in a milk, sugar and egg mix, fried and dusted with cinnamon are one of the favourite Christmas nibbles in Algarvean homes along with various almond sweets.) Presents are opened at midnight and then Christmas Day is for relaxing with family and friends. Christmas Weather We cannot guarantee sun, but it will be warmer then in Northern Europe. It can be nice and sunny during the daytime , but from 5pm onwards, it will get fresh. Therefore you need a good, quality holiday villa!
