Pine Cliffs Hotel
Portugal
Pine Cliffs Hotel sits above Falésia Beach on the Algarve coast, within a 72-hectare resort looking across the Atlantic. Its 217 rooms occupy architecture shaped by regional heritage and Moorish influences, with the wider resort's facilities close at hand. The nine-hole golf course, designed by Martin Hawtree, threads through pine trees near the cliffs. Its par-three sixth hole is particularly distinctive: the championship tee requires a carry across a ravine towards a narrow green. Guests also have access to Serenity Spa, a tennis club, eight swimming pools and a fitness centre. Restaurants and bars provide varied places for meals, while Mirador Champagne Bar occupies a position at the cliff edge. The combination suits a coastal stay in which the beach, golf and wellness facilities can each take a share of the day.
