Although most package holidays to the Algarve include an airport transfer, taking out car hire in the region is an absolute must in order to avoid being stranded in a hotel, when there is so much else on offer close by.
Car rental is fairly cheap in the area, although you should ensure that you book it in advance through a reputable company in order to avoid missing out on a popular size. Ensure that your rental package includes fully comprehensive insurance, as many cheaper deals do not, and on arrival in the resort you will have to pay extra to buy the necessary cover.
