Penina Hotel & Golf Resort

Penina Hotel & Golf Resort

10/10 Excellent
"Excellent Family holiday staying at Penina. Relaxing hotel with friendly helpful staff. Warm welcome on arrival with a glass of port and overview of the hotel. Really nice way to start our stay. Great facilities for kids and adults with tennis courts, jogging track, driving range, golf courses, large pool and multiple dining options. Played Championship course twice and enjoyed - greens, tees and fairways all in good order and great value for money. My son and I also had excellent golf lessons with Jose Lourenco - knowledgeable, friendly, genuine passion for what he does. All golf staff were excellent, really welcoming and friendly. Special shout out to Sandra, Carlos and Vasco. Excellent breakfast buffet and omelette station, the Italian restaurant, Cotton Clubhouse bar and the pool bar all good too. In all areas the service was very good and were brilliant with my sons (11 and 5) Great bonus having access to the Dunas beach club at Alvor beach with 50% discount on sun loungers and umbrella ( €10 for 1/2 day) and free towels, private beach bar also excellent. Easy 10 minute commute to Alvor, which is a really nice coastal town with cobbled streets, and an excellent range of restaurants. Would definitely recommend this hotel if staying in the area due to facilities, service and easy commute to Alvor. Thank you all at Penina!"

10/10 Excellent
"We are a family of 4 and we had a large room with a double bed and a separate portion with 2 single beds which was fantastic and prob the biggest balcony. This resort was immaculate and rooms cleaned daily to a high standard. The staff at the reception and the restaurants were really helpful. The courtesy bus to the beach was amazing too so no need to walk 20 minutes to the beach. The only small negatives were that there was no iron in the facility (but they offered a paid laundry service) and that you had to pay for the gym (based on the price, all inclusive members shouldnt have to pay as its not a cheap resort). Other that that everything was nice"
