Frequently Asked Questions
The Algarve for beach, golf and resort life; Madeira for a mild climate and nature year-round; Lisbon for culture, gastronomy and city energy. If you want to swim, choose the Algarve in summer; if you want to travel while the rest of Europe is cold, choose Madeira.
The Algarve is at its best May–October. Lisbon and Porto are most pleasant in spring and early autumn. Madeira works all year and is an excellent choice even in winter thanks to its mild climate.
Often, yes. Portugal generally delivers more five-star luxury for the money than the priciest parts of Italy or the French Riviera, especially outside the Algarve's high season. A five-star hotel usually starts around €200–350 a night.
Very. The Algarve is one of Europe's leading golf destinations with several championship courses, and many luxury resorts are built around the golf, with their own courses, spas and fine dining. Spring and autumn are the best golfing seasons.
Madeira is a subtropical island of dramatic nature, levada walks and sea views from almost every hotel — but without classic sandy beaches. Luxury here means clifftop sea-water pools, botanical gardens and a year-round climate rather than beach life, making the island perfect for active travellers and winter escapees.
