Onyria Palmares Beach & Golf Resort in Portugal has opened a new five-star boutique hotel.
The hotel at the Algarve-based resort boasts 18 rooms and two suites, each with a panoramic sea view and a balcony or terrace, and is within easy walking distance of the tees and practice area of venue’s 27-hole course. The hotel also features an outdoor swimming pool and a 180° bar and restaurant.
The resort’s operations director, António Pinto Coelho, said: “The original blueprint when the 27 holes were reopened was to include a luxury boutique hotel overlooking the site and we’re delighted we have been able to fulfil that part of the plan. There is, of course, no shortage of accommodation in the Algarve, but we feel the quality of the Onyria Palmares Beach House Hotel and its unique location, adjacent to the golf course and overlooking the picturesque Lagos Bay, and the long beach of Meia Praia, will ensure it stands above the majority of the competition, and becomes a ‘must visit’ for golfers and non-golfers alike.”
Three-night stay-and-play packages – including two rounds of golf – start from €409pp, while seven-night packages, including five green fees, cost from €911pp.
The hotel is well placed base for visitors looking to explore the western Algarve’s attractions, including the historic city of Lagos, with its old walled town; the nearby town of Silves, the ancient capital of the Algarve; as well as boat trips, water parks, stunning natural habitats, and easy cycling routes.
Onyria Palmas’s 27-hole golf course reopened in 2011 following an extensive redesign by Robert Trent Jones Jnr. The three loops of nine holes – the Alvor, Lagos and Praia courses – enjoy panoramic views across the Bay of Lagos, with each layout offering a different kind of golfing challenge.
