Description
Hotel Quinta da Marinha is a luxury resort situated in the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. It has an 18-hole golf course, full health club and spa.
After the extensive re styling in 2014, the Hotel has become more contemporary, making guests feel even more at home.
As the reception area is the first point of contact a visitor has with us, we started there, balancing our desire for more personalization with the requirements of hospitality. We’ve ensured it’s now a brighter environment, adding a fashionable grey that combines perfectly with the lighting and the new soft tones. And we’ve carried on that desire to enrich the visitor experience throughout the project.”
The lobby area also benefits from the addition of six paintings by the late Portuguese artist Ana Safer, in which she tells a story of Portuguese wines.
Each of Hotel Quinta’s air-conditioned rooms has a spacious balcony with panoramic views of the golf course or the Sintra mountain range. Rooms also include a minibar, flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with Plantation amenities.

The Quinta da Marinha Golf Course, in Cascais, has 18 holes with 5.870 meters of pure nature and big challenges. This par 71, designed by the legendary Robert Trent Jones, offers fantastic views over the Atlantic Ocean and the Sintra Mountains.
In this course you can really see the style of Robert Trent Jones in the elevated Greens & Tees, many bunkers in play and, as expected, some water hazards.

Some of the holes you won’t forget are:
– Hole 5, Par 3, you play over a big lake to an elevated green well protected with 4 bunkers.
– Hole 10, a beautiful Par 5, with two lakes, all shots have to be well thought to make sure you are not penalized by the water.
– Hole 13, Par 4, it is one of the most famous holes of the Portuguese Golf, with view to the Atlantic Ocean, its picture was used for many years to promote “Golf in Portugal” abroad.
– Hole 14, Par 3, played over a natural ravine to a quite demanding Green.
