We booked our private transfer with yellowfishtaxi and one just comment, Excelent and the cheapest for our family. Vila Petra is the perfect spot for a family holiday, far enough from the bars area, the strip,but walking distance for bars and restaurants. Avoid the local caracols (snails) lol. It have to be the snails season as you can see it... More

The Vila Petra has so many repeat visitors, it has a "loyalty" discount system in place. I know because i am one of those repeat visitors, several visits a year, now probably over 30 at this single hotel. All the previous reviews are correct, this is a very good hotel. However recently, they seem to be purposely attracting gangs of... More
