This post is meant for those of us staying in Hotel Costa de Caparica in Costa de Caparica, which is about 8 km from the Pousada in Almada. (Again, look at the Google map, the hotel is indicated as well) .
First
The number of reservations received by the hotel, is less than the number of our participants that indicated they would stay in the Hotel. Remember that for those not staying in Almada Pousada de Juventude (the main venue, the Youth Hostel) it is your own responsibility to arrange accomodation.
If you plan to stay in the Hotel, please verify that you have correctly booked and received confirmation of your booking (Euforic/ICCO group has been confirmed). This is the person to contact for details:
Paula Sabino, Departamento de Grupos / Groups Department Tel.: (351) 212 918 906; email: paula.sabino(AT)hotelcostacaparica.pt
Second
I have just spoken to Taxi Ratalma, the taxi company at “the South Bank” as the region Costa de Caparica / Almada is called. Taxi Ratalma has many cars available. I have signalled to them that during our event, a group will travel from Caparica to Almada, to arrive there in time for the sessions. The ride, in a normal taxi car, will cost about 8 to 10 Euro one way; 4 persons can go in one car. In the morning, there is no need to call: taxis will be waiting for you. In case you need a taxi to go back or at other times, this is the number: Ratalma Taxi, 212947071. If you phone from an international phone, add +351 before the number. Speak basic and clear English, they will understand. Of course, the Hotel could also call a taxi for you.

I am staying close to the Hotel Costa de Caparica at Residencial Mar e Sol, Rua dos Pescadores, 42 and will be travelling in every day commencing Wednesday morning. I look forward to seeing other “travellers” to the event.

One additional thought – I am arriving Tuesday evening (17th) at Lisbon at 19.30 off the Easyjet flight 5455 from LGW – does anyone want to share a car to Costa de Caparica?

Do we know who or how many of us are the hotel? This will help in the morning to taxi pool!

Hi Gauri (nice seeing your pic!),
In total there are over 30 people in the hotel of our KM4dev group.

I’m staying at the hotel too, but my idea is to hire a car for the daily trip back and forth. I presume there is parking avaialble at the venue (and at the hotel), is this correct? I will be arriving on Wednesday afternoon.

hi steve
there is public parking space in front of the hotel. spaces are more limited at the hostel, but i guess if you are early enough you will not have any problem.
