Satellite TV / Cable TV – Third Party Supplier
Every property is privately owned and has different TV subscriptions. In most properties in the area of Quinta do Lago and Vale do Lobo it is commonly Lazer TV system.
The Lazer system has many English and European channels. A comprehensive list is provided below.
Many other properties will have an internet based subscription for UK programs, similar to a UK Freeview service. There may not be as many options for sports and movies but will have a reasonable selection of English language programs.
If the website description for a property indicates Satellite television, for example Portuguese MEO service (visit: https://www.meo.pt/tv/canais-servicos-tv/lista-de-canais/fibra for the current list of channels) you can expect to receive at least one free to air English language channel. Additional subscription channels such as sports and movies may not be available unless stated in the property description.
With all services it is unlikely that a one off payment can be made to access e.g. boxing or other pay per view sport events. If there is a specific sporting event that will be held while you are on holiday please check with us as to the availability of upgrading the TV service.
A selection of our properties may be equipped to receive local foreign language channels only please check with the Reservations team before booking about the TV programs available in individual properties.
If a villa is equipped with a DVD player or games console, you may need to provide your own DVDs or games.
Note: many of our properties work on cable TV which, like Satellite TV can be affected by interruption of service, poor weather conditions, rain and cloud cover. SandyBlue cannot guarantee the speed and consistency of the service as it is provided by a third party supplier.
We’ve given an example of service information on the following pages. Please note these channels can be updated by the supplier at any time and is out of the control of SandyBlue.
