Penha Longa Hotel & Golf Resort

This was a magical stay. We were only supposed to stay one night and continue on to Lisbon, but decided to return for another night as it is so close to Lisbon. IN fact, a good case can be made for staying here and either driving in to Lisbon or taking an Uber. Only 25 minutes away. The grounds are spectacular. The food and work out/pool area a re top notch. And the service and people are first rate. Luxurious spacious rooms - what more can you ask for. All at an affordable rate. The breakfast was worth the room rate on its own. We will definitely come back.

A trip never to be forgotten. The experience was memorable, the staff were friendly. Most importantly, the environment was it for me. If you need a LUXURY get away, this is the spot for you. The rooms are just out of this world with state of the are settings. Food and drinks all top notch. I recommend 100%

My husband and I stayed here for seven nights over New Year’s. While the hotel’s beautiful grounds and excellent spa made a strong impression, several aspects of our stay fell short of expectations. At check-in, we were informed that we couldn’t upgrade our room due to booking under a corporate rate, despite being Bonvoy Gold members. While this was disappointing, we appreciated being allowed to check in early. Unfortunately, our room had thin walls, and we could clearly hear conversations from adjacent rooms throughout our stay. Additionally, when I first used the bathtub faucet, yellowish-brown water ran for about 15–20 seconds, suggesting it hadn’t been used in some time. Dining was another area of frustration. Reservations made through the Bonvoy app didn’t guarantee smooth experiences. On one occasion, we waited 45 minutes for a table despite having a reservation, and by the time we were seated, several menu items were unavailable. That said, this hotel is an excellent choice for families with young children. They go above and beyond to keep kids entertained during the holiday season. However, if you’re seeking a quieter, child-free experience, you may want to consider other options.

We stayed at the resort for 5 days with points to welcome the new year. The resort is exceptional, very peaceful. Rooms are large and comfortable with terraces, I think they are renovated, but there is something to be desired in terms of soundproofing. Even though I had taken all three rooms with points there was free breakfast for everyone. The service was also exceptional. The resort has many restaurants, we visited Arola and Spices and were very pleased with both the service and the food.

The grounds are beautiful, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. In addition, the restaurants were top-notch and could not be beat. The breakfast buffet went far beyond expectations and was truly excellent. I would definitely recommend staying here. However, the only down side to the resort is its location since it is not particularly close to anything.
