We know that our wedding is very far away for a lot of you and we understand that not everyone can make it. But if you are going to travel all this way for our wedding we recommend making it a vacation. It is hard to do Portugal in a couple of days. We have listed some recommendations on where to stay during your time here, feel free to use these suggestions, or feel free to pick and choose as you please. Portugal is a beautiful place with gorgeous beaches and it has plenty of things to do and places to see.

Flight

Denver to Portugal (Faro Airport)

The nearest airport to our venue is Faro, which is just a 30-minute drive or Uber ride from the hotel. Expect to pay around $20 for an Uber, just as a heads-up. For the best flight prices, check Skyscanner or Google Flights. If you're flying internationally, flights typically become available about a year in advance. Keep an eye out for deals throughout 2025!

Rental Car

Sky Scanner

Faro (Airport), Faro 8005-146, Portugal
 

Skyscanner will find you the best deals on car rentals - take your pick! It’s very cheap, with rates as low as $50 for five days. And for the Americans out there, good news: they drive on the right side of the road!

House Or Rental

Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com

Airbnbs are going to be one of the best options for accommodation during your trip. Old Town Albuferia is where the Bride and Groom and their families will be staying. This area is centrally located near beaches, restaurants, bars, etc. We highly recommend renting a Villa/House for vacation. This is going to be the best bang for your buck. Here are some of the best spots: Albufeira (old town Albufeira) – One of the most popular tourist spots, packed with resorts, beach bars, and a buzzing nightlife scene. Lagos – A mix of gorgeous beaches, a lively old town, and great nightlife. Ideal for those who want both relaxation and fun. Vilamoura – A high-end destination with luxury resorts, a marina full of yachts, golf courses, and upscale dining. Carvoeiro – A picturesque fishing village with dramatic cliffs, hidden beaches, and a laid-back atmosphere.

Hotel

Grande Real Santa Eulalia Resort & Hotel Spa

Aldeamento Grande Real Santa Eulalia 429, Albufeira, Algarve 8200-609, Portugal
 

This is where we will be having our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception. You are more than welcome to stay at this hotel the night before the Wedding and the night of. We wouldn't recommend staying at this hotel the entire time you are here. If you are looking for a hotel, there are tons of options in this area.

For all the days along the way
