Quinta da Penha de Franca

Beautiful throughout, the Quinta da Penha de Franca hotel has everything even the most discerning guest could want, plus an added bonus in the form of direct access to the Atlantic Ocean via a private swimming platform.

A duo of pools ensures that guests spend the lion share of their time outdoors, though the interior decor is charming and cosy, with some modern communal areas as well. This reflects the eclectic mix of buildings that the hotel comprises of, with a modern extension being added to a traditional Portuguese manor house. The traditional home-cooked meals are a particular speciality here, but with the town centre just 300m away, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to mealtimes.

The marina ensures a glut of fresh seafood for local restaurants to work their magic with and shopaholics will be in retail heaven thanks to the surprisingly large number of boutiques to explore.
