It's hard to miss Peniche's spiffy 2015 addition to the hotel scene; it stands out like a bright, white beacon on approach into town. With a view over the sand dunes, it's like a massive (and very sleek) 120-room, light-hogging beach house – partly run on solar power – and attracts everyone from business groups to surfers after comfort.
Rooms are large, breezy and all have balconies and coffee machines. Offers one of the best breakfasts around. Kids big and little love the surf simulator plus a choice of indoor and outdoor pools, and there's a sauna, spa and gym.
