Martinhal Sagres Beach Family Resort — Sagres, Portugal

On the wave-brushed tip of the Algarve’s Costa Vicentina Natural Park, Martinhal Sagres fuses five-star style with a playground-level inventory of sport. The resort overlooks its own sheltered blue-flag bay, letting guests pad barefoot from villa deck to water-sports centre for dawn stand-up-paddle intervals or windsurf clinics backed by certified instructors.

Club 98, the in-house sports hub, fields two plexipave tennis courts, two padel courts, an all-weather football pitch and a bike station stocking e-MTBs for cliff-top single-track rides. A fully equipped gym runs TRX, HIIT and Pilates classes, while Finisterra Spa’s sauna, steam room and seaweed massages put recovery on a par with effort. Five heated pools—one 25-metre indoor, three outdoor lagoons and a toddler splash zone—keep every generation moving whatever the weather.

Children are woven into the performance matrix rather than sidelined: age-tiered kids’ clubs schedule mini-tennis, beach treasure hunts and beginner surf lessons; a “baby concierge” stocks rooms with sterilizers and stair gates; and restaurants hide play corners so parents can linger over grilled dourada. Nutrition skews athlete-friendly—macro-labelled buffet islands, gluten-free pasta bars and fresh-pressed juice stands—while self-caterers in village houses hit the on-site market for whole-grain porridge and electrolyte gels.

Evenings stay chilled: sunset yoga on the dune deck, stargazing bonfires, then blackout-curtained rooms guarantee solid sleep before the next sunrise session. With Faro Airport 115 km east and Sagres’ laid-back surf town five minutes away, Martinhal packages elite facilities, family convenience and raw-ocean energy into one dune-fringed sports campus.
