WHAT WE LOVE...

The rambling, vast Pine Cliffs Resort in the Algarve has plenty on offer for its guests. First and foremost, it's perched on astonishing red rock cliffs that fringe the public beach. This beach is just below the resort and a lift takes you directly there, plus, lots of rooms have views out to the Atlantic Ocean. The resort not only has the hotel but also villas and town homes which are privately owned. There is a golf course, tennis courts, spa, and a range of restaurants for every culinary taste imaginable. The service is impeccable with friendly helpful staff. Décor is all about subdued pale colours with a few blue tile references thrown in for good measure. Nothing is overblown.
