Take the fuss out of a holiday in Portugal’s sunny coastal region with properties ranging from facility-packed, family-friendly options to elegant escapes.

4. The Patio Suite Hotel, Olhos de Agua
Combine space and convenience at this property providing one and two-bedroom apartments sleeping up to six with the no-fuss frills of an all-inclusive package. It’s a low-key spot in a quiet location with four pools (including two for children), a relaxed kids’ club, and some entertainment, but you’ll find it less frenetic than many larger hotels. The restaurant is styled as a food court, with options from show cooking to pizza. Falesia beach is a leisurely stroll or five-minute free shuttle ride away.
