Staying in the townhouses means you have a fully equipped kitchen, but when you don’t feel like cooking, the wider Pine Cliffs Resort steps in with an impressive dining scene – nine restaurants and two bars spanning everything from casual poolside bites to refined steak and sushi.

Sample venues include:
• Jardim Colonial – buffet restaurant serving international breakfast with kids’ options, microwaves and highchairs.
• O Grill – poolside spot for breakfast (seasonal), lunch, snacks and relaxed dinners, with a mix of buffet and à la carte.
• Maré at Pine Cliffs – beach club and restaurant right by the sand (seasonal), ideal for fresh fish and laid-back lunches or dinners.
• Corda Café – easygoing café for Portuguese dishes at lunch, dinner and snack time.
• Clubhouse – next to the golf course, perfect for casual meals and drinks before or after a round.
• Piri Piri Steakhouse – Portuguese-inspired grill focused on quality cuts and piri piri specialities.
• O Pescador – seafood-led dining with a local flavour.
• Yakuza Algarve – chic Japanese restaurant with show-cooking (high season only).
• Zest – Mind, Body & Soul – lighter all-day dishes, juices and healthy choices.

For drinks, take your pick from the Mirador Champagne Bar – a clifftop garden terrace made for sunsets – or the elegant Portulano Lobby Bar for cocktails and digestifs.

A smart dress code may apply in some venues; reservations and supplements can vary depending on your chosen board basis and season (details may change). What All Inclusive typically includes.

Water babies are spoilt for choice here. Across the resort you’ll find eight outdoor freshwater pools, many with children’s sections, plus a dedicated kids’ pool and plenty of loungers and parasols. Complimentary pool towels are included, and facilities can vary by pool area.

There’s also an indoor heated pool, handy for cooler days or off-season dips.

Down at the beachfront, a summer beach concession (typically July–August, weather dependent) offers sunbeds, and you can book water sports such as kayaking, pedalos, snorkelling and selected motorised options, usually run by an external company with a minimum age of around 6 years.

Do note that children under 12 must be supervised by an adult at all pools.

Golfers are drawn to the on-site Pine Cliffs Golf Course, a scenic 9-hole layout with clifftop holes and a clubhouse. There’s also a golf academy for those looking to sharpen their swing (advance reservations and local charges apply).
