Penina Hotel & Golf Resort is built around Portugal's first purpose-built golf course, Sir Henry Cotton's 1966 Championship layout, on a 360-acre parkland estate near Portimão. The five-star hotel adds a 9-hole Resort Course for warm-ups and beginners, six dining venues, and a golf academy on the same historic grounds.
Penina Hotel & Golf Resort has 2 courses: Penina Championship (18 holes, par 73) and Penina Resort (9 holes, par 35).
Visitor green fees start from €77 at Penina Championship and €28 at Penina Resort. Rates vary by month and time of day, and hotel guests may get different rates, so check when you book.
Penina Championship asks for a maximum handicap of 28 for men and 36 for ladies. Penina Resort does not ask for a handicap.
Penina Hotel & Golf Resort (5-star, from about €200 a night) is on the estate, so you can stay a short walk or buggy ride from the first tee.
