Anyone been in last 2 months?
Was it ok or were you very restricted?
Thanks!

Did you go? We are considering for October half term as it seems one of the only places left.

No... we've decided to play safe and not go abroad. I am gutted and it looks a bargain tho!

We are booked to go but with Jet2 who have been brilliant at refunding whenever things have been cancelled so fingers crossed.

Campervan - We are due to fly with Jet 2 on Monday to Madeira. Are you having your PCR test here or going to have it done at the airport and quarantine?

We are going to have it done on arrival then straight to the villa and chill until we get the results. Taking food with us for the night and next day just in case.
Its free and you get the results quickly apparently. How about you?

We have just had our PCR tests done here as couldn't cope with having a positive results for DD 15 and then having to quarantine out there!! Thankfully all negative but wanted peace of mind before we went.

Just back from a week in Madeira - was lovely. Weather warm, swam in the sea, did some touristy things and chilled by the pool with a book. Felt very Covid safe - masks worn everywhere, hand sanitiser everywhere - so much safer than UK and everyone seems to adhere to the rules. Had a great week away and even the kids had fun. People are very friendly too. Would recommend
