Starting to plan for a future trip to Algarve + Cascais/Lisbon, and I'm looking at possibilities for seeing more of Portugal than those 2 areas. I currently have an open week between 2 timeshare confirmations.
There are 2 timeshares up in the north - in Esposende and Geres - they both look so-so for both accommodations and location. We do find it easier to be in one place than on the road too much schlepping luggage, and then there's the cost. But maybe pousadas are the way to go even tho total cost would be so much higher than an exchange. I checked their website, and the coolest-looking ones have expensive supplements; perhaps some of the less-popular and less-expensive ones are worth it.
If you have been to either of those timeshares, or specific pousadas you loved (or didn't), hope you'll chime in with feedback and opinions - thanks!
