This vast multi-property Luxury Collection resort at the top of a soaring red sandstone cliff surrounded by aromatic pine woods is a family favourite, with something for all ages. The amazing facilities on offer here include a nine-hole golf course, an Annabel Croft tennis academy, a state-of-the-art, 1,000sq/m spa, a private lounging area on iconic Falesia Beach, and a huge kids’ club and children’s village with two life-size pirates’ ships.
Twelve bars and restaurants means there’s something to fit all moods and tastes, with offerings including the casual O Grill family restaurant in a secluded spot overlooking the golf course and the swimming pool of the Residence, with a buffet plus full American breakfast in high season.
In Easter, weather on the sun-drenched Algarve is balmy, with temperatures averaging around 20°C (17° in the sea) and occasional showers but little rainfall –perfect for those who don’t necessarily want the heat of high summer. Among other reasons for staying at the Pine Cliffs Resort this spring are:
The resort is home to several properties – the Pine Cliffs Hotel, Pine Cliffs Ocean Suites, Pine Cliffs Residence, Pine Cliffs Villas, Pine Cliffs Gardens, Pine Cliffs Suites, Pine Cliffs Golf Suites and Pine Cliffs Townhouses – each of them with something different to offer according to what kind of holiday you have in mind.
The villas are particularly well suited to families, with four- and five-bedroom private-pool options offering the ideal space, flexibility and seclusion for multigenerational holidays or get-togethers with other family or friends while giving you quick and easy access to all the facilities and amenities of the resort.

The kids’ club for ages 8–13 years features the likes of mini-golf, football and crossbow on its program.
