Martinhal Sagres Beach Family Resort Hotel

Great hotel, great facilities! The beach and view are beautiful!

Myself my wife, my little boy Rui and my baby girl went on a 10 day stay to Portugal and it was brilliant. The staff in all parts of the resort are wonderful and they go above and beyond to help you with all your needs, a trip that could have been stressful was lovely, the views are stunning, nice food and easy to get to nearby city of Lagos. would thoroughly recommend,

We had a great stay at Martinhal. Our bay house was very spacious and finished to a good standard. Everything you might need for a week with a baby was provided and we immediately felt at home there. Staff was super friendly, helpful and extremely tolerant of babies all ages running around the whole resort.

It was our first time bringing the kids on holiday outside of Ireland (ages 18 months and 4 years) and we were apprehensive about how the trip would go. We needn't have worried and a massive reason why were the staff and facilities provided by Martinhal. Firstly the food is excellent for a family resort. The breakfast each morning was lovely and fresh consisting of fruit, juices, pastries, cereal, breads, meats, cheeses as well as a hot buffet. And you could also order omelettes and eggs in whatever style you wanted. The lunch and dinner options were also excellent with a mix of Portuguese, Mediterranean, Asian and Italian options across the restaurants. They also had large and varied kids menus. We went half board and found this very useful so would defo recommend. O'Terraco and As Dunas were particular favourites. Something wonderful about the restaurants is they have playgrounds and colouring corners in them so the kids can wander off and play within full sight of you while you enjoy dinner, such a big plus and relief for anyone with little ones. With 4 pools across the resort there'll always be somewhere to swim at whatever time you want even when it's busy. The busiest pool is the one at the front of the resort which faces the beach and has a poolside bar. So if that's not your thing then work away with the other options. Our favourite was the outdoor/indoor pool as we could go in and out with the kids depending on the heat of the sun and it was a short stroll to the mercado (shop) as well. Mercado onsite is very handy, you can pick up water, breads, meats, cheeses, fruits, milk, cereals etc. and pop them in the kitchen in your house for the week which is so handy. For those wanting a break from the pools you can play mini-golf, table-tennis, tennis etc. and they also have great kids clubs available. You also have a 2-10 min stroll to the beach depending on where you're staying onsite. The beach is beautiful but can be busy. One of the biggest pluses is the staff. Being a family resort you'd expect the staff to be good but sometimes there may be a couple of people not suited to that type of environment. We didn't find that here at all, every staff member we interacted with was amazing and they were particularly great with the kids. When kids were having wobbles it never wobbled them, they still maintained a smile and calmness which is a huge thing for parents not to feel like a burden. Kudos to the entire team, we can't wait to come back.

I couldn’t recommend this place more, it was relaxed, the staff incredible and the all round experience top notch. Each restaurant was well thought out and had a different vibe..the pool and beach were catered well and had plenty of space. A great set up and wonderful time

This place is heaven if you have babies/young children. We just spent a week here with our 1yo and had absolutely everything we needed, from items in the room (highchair, baby gates, kids cutlery, bottle warmer, steriliser etc) to out and about throughout the resort. They’ve thought of everything to keep young kids happy. The staff are great. The restaurants are super nice. Oh and the whole place is clean and absolutely beautiful!!! Really couldn’t recommend more highly.
