OPENING OF THE OLD VILLAGE AND FACILITIES
The Portuguese government have declared the end of the lockdown period since 3rd May 2020.
Some selected businesses such as shopping malls, gyms and bars etc. are expected to return to normal during the month of June. In the interim the use of a face mask is mandatory at all times when entering shops. Restaurants are allowed to recommence their business from 18th May 2020. There will be some restrictions on the social distancing situation and a reduction in the number of clients permitted by 50%.
Luckily, the Algarve (around 370 cases out of a total population of 450.000 people) as well as the Loulé Council (64 cases out of total population of 60.000 people) have not been severely affected with the Covid 19 pandemic. As you can see from the above figures, only a very small percentage of the local population have suffered with the virus infection.
A meeting between the Condominium and the Commercial Enterprises in the OLD VILLAGE took place on 20th May and the re-opening of all the Village facilities will take effect from 06th June.
In relation to the Old Village swimming pools and other common facilities, as these are classified as communal gatherings, we are in the process of preparing an Internal Health & Safety Protocol to comply with the guidelines from the Portuguese National Health System and Tourism Board as to new safety practices to be employed for staff and customers, respectively. These rules will be clearly marked for pool users
