The Romanza was the first hotel we stayed at in san stef some 6 or 7 years ago and it is a great really friendly place and they do excellent food,but the hill can be a killer after a big meal and a few drinks (and we were san stef youngsters in our early thirties!!) and her indoors with those shoes that "look great"but can hardly walk in dosen't help!! At least you will burn off a few calories after a night of excesss! Also you can reach the beach directly from the romanza down a steepish path.

Crikey, that's expensive! We've been going to The Algarve for 8 years, staying in Carvoeiro, and on average that round of drinks would be about 7 euros.

We're visting San Stefanos in 4 weeks time after a 16 year absence, staying at the Teresa Hotel. I think we're up a hill; can anyone indicate how long our walk is from the town and/or beach? Cheers, in advance.

I think it all depends on how fit you are!
On my first visit to San Stefanos 27 years ago, I was able to jog or Stride up the worst hills carrying my Son on my shoulders,
These days downhill is fine and uphill is daunting!!
The walk into town is worth it and you may find a sympathetic restauranter who could give you a lift back up,
Or hire a quad bike for the week, just to do the hill!! Cheap and cheerful!
I think there are Taxi's in Arillas, who may help out, check with Noula is best!!
