Demand certificateAt PENINA there is an almost unique proximity between the private villas and the golf courses. In some villas there is even direct access from their own garden straight to the course, allowing players to bring home their own electric golf buggy to park and charge at night in their own garage. With 3 courses to choose from (2 presently active), the 18-hole course, designed by Sir Henry Cotton, is considered his masterpiece, with stunning views, a calm and tranquil setting and nature at its best. Set in 360 ha of extensive lush gardens, this 5-star resort is located 6 km from Portimão and 4 km from Alvor. PENINA Hotel & Golf Resort offers, at special rates for villa owners, a wide selection of sporting facilities including: 3 golf courses and a large swimming pool, considered to be the largest private open-air pool in the entire Algarve. Leisure facilities include: massage treatments, a sauna, a well-equipped fitness centre and 5 tennis courts. For the little ones there is a kids club. There are also 5 restaurants serving a variety of Portuguese, Italian and international cuisine. There are also children's menus and theme nights. The 4 on-site bars serve delicious snacks and cocktails. Alvor is known for its beaches and its fishing village by the river mouth. The discovery, on the hill of Vila Velha, which overlooks the Ria de Alvor, of a Neolithic settlement with traces of later Roman occupation, proves its long history. During Arab rule, Alvor was a prosperous port. It retains much of its charm as a picturesque fishing village in the streets of white houses and the colourful boats that gather around the old fish market after a day's fishing. Alvor is from: Portimão - 6 km (approx. 10 min trip) Lagos - 16 km (20 min trip approx) Faro Airport - 75 km (approx. 50 min trip) For Golf lovers, information on nearest courses: PENINA GOLF course: 146Hectares where the first 18-hole course to be built in the Algarve, the Sir Henry Cotton Championship Course, has played home to the Portuguese Open on ten occasions... and is regarded by many as the finest course in the Algarve and beyond. Built and laid out by the three-time British Open Champion, Sir Henry Cotton, the course is as challenging as it is satisfying... and as unforgiving as it is beautiful. Flanked by streams, water hazards and precarious ditches, the course boasts an array of subtle slopes and raised greens... well known for catching out even the most careful of golfers. The Par 73 course is playable the whole year round and is currently taking bookings for this and next season. The other two courses, both 9-hole, “Resort” of solid but gentle practice for beginners and “Academy” for the intermediate golfer, are both great for all-round, thoroughly enjoyable holiday golf. PALMARES GOLF course: Conceived by Arch. Robert Trent Jones Jr., this exceptional American golf course designer was to craft a 3 x 9 = 27-hole golf course which maximized the potential of its extraordinary environment: a spectacular seaside setting. Palmares Golf is composed of three returning nine-hole loops that can be played in any sequence. The result is a golf course of breath-taking natural beauty which is a delight to play. The course opened 18 holes for play in October 2010 and the full 27 last June 2011 and it has matured nicely. The genius in the routing is that, depending on the sequence of play, each golf experience is different. Each nine-hole loop – “Alvor”, “Lagos” and “Praia” - has its own character and ambiance.
