The Palacio Estoril Hotel is one of the most emblematic and glamorous hotels in Portugal, located on the Lisbon Coast, close to the town of Cascais and also within easy reach of Sintra which is a Unesco World Heritage Site
Grand and Cosy is the brand image of this well known hotel, celebrating 90 years in 2020. Member of the prestigious “Small Luxury Hotels of the World”, it has been awarded with the prize “Best for Targeted Healing”, Banyan Tree Spa brand, in the famous Condé Nast Traveller magazine.
The Hotel gives a warm welcome, with the 156 rooms, including 32 Suites, where famous guests have stayed, including numerous members of European royalty. The Hotel was also the haunt of British and German spies, who could often be found in the bar. Later, these stories of intrigue and espionage inspired famous novelists and filmmakers and the Hotel was featured in the James Bond movie “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service”.
Today, the Palacio Estoril Hotel maintains its charm, authenticity and excellence in service.

The Estoril Golf Club
Par:69 | Holes:18
The Estoril Championship Course was born in 1929 and redesigned in 1936 by Mackenzie Ross. It is known as one of the oldest and most emblematic clubs in Portugal and where two of the Portuguese most important tournaments have been held frequently: The Portuguese Open and The Portuguese International Championship Amateur.
A long list of famous golfers have played on the Estoril Golf Course, including Ballesteros, Montgomerie, Sam Torrance, Canizares, Gene Sarazen, Peter Allis and Bernard Gallacher.
Overlooking Estoril and the sea, this 5200-metre-long course is set amongst eucalyptus, mimosas and pine trees giving a uniquely colourful touch that demands excellent tactics and challenges in accuracy rather than distance.
The visually stunning par 3 holes, although they vary in length, all pose particular challenges. The Peppers Hole (4th Hole) is surrounded by pepper trees, while The Tea Cup (8th Hole) is well known due to the always challenging flag position.
Caddies here are among the most experienced – some of them have worked for many PGA players while competing in Portugal. After finishing your golf game, you can taste the delights of Portuguese cuisine, while you are overlooking the 18th hole and a spectacular view over the Atlantic Ocean.
