Luxury Holidays to Portugal 2019 / 2020

Beach life in the Algarve

There are lots of resorts to choose from when booking a luxury escape to Portugal. If it’s dramatic, pristine beaches you’re after, go for the Algarve. You can spend a few nights in a clifftop villa or deluxe golf hotel here. Albufeira is the biggest beach resort, while Vilamoura revolves around the million-pound marina. Carvoeiro is home to some of our top-rated villas and hotels. Whitewashed villas, a 17th-century fort and seafood restaurants hark back to the resort’s fishing village days.

Atlantic views in Madeira

Madeira is a volcanic island that’s closer to Morocco than Portugal. It’s known for a few things — its excellent red wine, dramatic Atlantic views and regal hotels. Belmond Reid’s Palace is a top place to stay, thanks to its garden spa and panoramic vistas.
