That seems to be what's going on now. I will take a closer look in a day or two. No signs of activity across the rest of the site.

when we were there we could see men working on the pool. It looks so much nicer now, hope they paint over the graffiti which is an eyesore around the area sadly

The completed parts look fairly nice. Workmen were busy today cleaning the perimiter walls and making a right mess!     |

It has been a few weeks away. I took a quick look around Oceanville on Sunday 19th Augusts. Still no sign of anything being ready for the tourists, although the part of the site being restored is generally clean and tidy. Some of the tall hedges out the back have been trimmed.
 The view down to the old town area. The long row of buildings in the foreground is the Avenida da Liberdade area.  Looking east  The hotel is still untouched.  If you want one, this business is open located between the hotel and townhouses at the back of the site. You can find them on Facebook.  I don't what future visitors are going to think about the large area that is not being refurbished.   But the areas to be occupied are nice enough, if looking somewhat sterile at the moment.     The basketball / handball court has been cleared of 15 years of weeds.  The large pool is undergoing a rebuild.  Now for some sign of occupation! |

Hi
I guess we will have to wait and see what the starting prices will be and what if any concession he will give to previous buyers . I believe the next block of apartments are being refurbished in October with a 6 months timeline , i know this because my apartment is on that block . Nothing yet on the Hotel . I will keep everyone here posted come Sept/Oct.

That's interesting to hear that the refurbished apartments will be on sale, but how many will be snapped up by holiday rental corporationsI wonder? Whatever, the price will be way beyond the means of the ordinary working people. There still remains the hotel block and the apartments on the other side of the road.

Hi All
I dont usually post anything on here , just keep an eye on updates as someone that had put down a deposit on an appartment in Oceanville, but i have just returned from Albuferia and i would like to share the info i have received . I took a walk around the area on Thursday last and managed to get talking with the Builders who kindly gave me the number of the present owner of Oceanville. I called him and he told me the following ; The apartments will go on sale in Sept/Oct this year , no set price yet but i will call him at that time for an update. I asked him if he would consider a concession on the prices for former potential owners who lost deposits and he said he would consider it . I left it at that for the moment . I dont really think our lawyers over there will do any more for us on that project , but if i thought i could buy it at a reasonable price early next year i would consider it . I will update here in October if i get talking to him again , there is no reason for him to talk to me , but we will see.Thanks guys

A lot of work going on inside the blocks on Friday. Some parts look to be more or less finished.    |

Tuesday 30th April - all sorts of work going on. Some parts now look quite nice.  But what will they think when looking across the road at the jungle?      |

It is perhaps of importance that no work is yet being done on the block where I remember some apartments being occupied for a few weeks prior to the shutdown all those many years ago. Neither is any work taking place at the hotel. I am not in Albufeira at the moment. I will get some more pictures next week.
