Penina Hotel & Golf Resort

At Penina Hotel & Golf Resort, you’ll especially enjoy the great outdoors. The large pool is located between the hotel and the golf course and is perfect for a relaxing afternoon in the sun. While you pick out a lounge chair, the kids can take a refreshing dip. In the mood for a treat? Simply order a drink or snack from the poolside service. There’s plenty for kids to do, too. Just 100 metre from the hotel is the Kangaroo Club: a safe, supervised play area with both indoor and outdoor spaces. Children can swim, climb, play soccer, ride bikes on the course, or play in the sandbox. For the youngest guests, there’s a toddler zone, and the playroom is stocked with toys and fun activities. With programs full of games, sports, and educational moments, there’s something for every age group. This makes Penina not only a resort for golf enthusiasts, but also a pleasant and child-friendly hotel where children have plenty of space to play.

At Penina, there are many ways to enjoy a meal: from a quiet breakfast to a sumptuous dinner. At Sagres Restaurant, the main dining room, you can start your day with a breakfast buffet. In the evenings, themed dinners are held regularly. You can dine indoors or outdoors on the terrace, in a bright and relaxed atmosphere. In the mood for Portuguese cuisine? Then Le Grill is a great choice. For Italian flavors, head to L’arlecchino. After an active day, stop by the Sir Henry Cotton Club for a light meal, snack, or drink. Later in the day, Bar Monchique is a cozy spot for cocktails and live music. You can also enjoy great food right on the beach. At Dunas Beach Restaurant, on Praia de Alvor, you’ll be seated by the dunes with a view of the Atlantic Ocean. It’s a convenient spot for a day at the beach, especially with kids who’ll be craving a treat after playing.

Penina is a great base from which to explore the Algarve. Praia de Alvor is a 10-minute drive away and features white sand, dunes, and crystal-clear seawater. The beach is great for swimming, as well as activities like kayaking, sailing, windsurfing, and pedal boating. For a more peaceful moment, take a walk toward Praia dos Três Irmãos, known for the rock formations along the bay. Nature is also nearby. The Ria de Alvor Nature Reserve is 4 km from Penina and features wooden walking trails through a protected lagoon area. In the surrounding area, you can visit Portimão or the Portimão Museum, where you’ll learn more about the history of the Arade River and the sardine canning industry. This way, your family holiday will offer a wonderful mix of beach, nature, and short excursions.
