Set beside the scenic marina in Portimão, NH Marina Portimão Resort offers a relaxing base to enjoy the laid-back beach life of the Algarve. Just under 45 kilometres from Faro Airport, the resort is perfectly positioned near Praia da Rocha beach, and within easy reach of local shops, restaurants, and family attractions. On-site parking adds to the convenience for those exploring the coast by car.
The resort is divided into three areas – Marina Sun, Marina Deck, and Marina Beach – all within walking distance of the pools, restaurants, and bars. If you’d rather not walk, a complimentary buggy service is available to take you comfortably around the resort, including to and from Praia da Rocha.
There are three outdoor saltwater pools, including one large main pool, and one for children, surrounded by sunbeds and umbrellas. Guests can also make use of the 24hr on-site gym, while younger travellers will enjoy the seasonal children’s club and entertainment.
Start your day with a generous breakfast showcasing local Portuguese flavours, served fresh each morning. The main restaurant is also open for lunch and dinner, offering a menu of seasonal dishes made with quality ingredients. For something more casual, enjoy light bites or a refreshing drink at the hotel’s main bar or the poolside bar during the summer months.
The resort is made up of comfortable, air-conditioned studios and apartments, spread across three areas – Marina Sun, Marina Deck, and Marina Beach. Each accommodation option features a private balcony or terrace with views over the marina, pool, or gardens. Inside, you’ll find a dining area, well-equipped kitchenette, and modern home comforts including Wi-Fi, a flat-screen TV, and essential appliances.
Once again, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at NH Marina. Hotel placed on its own and with the best views ever of the amazing beach. Rooms cleaned by the time we returned from breakfast - high standard. Beds and pillows very comfortable - balcony overlooking the Marina. Staff friendly and helpful. Uber picked us up from reception so we visited lots of places. Wonderful dinner at T Bone restaurant. Best hotel in the area. *****
Humberto the bartender, was wonderful. Great conversing with, talking of culture and Portugal insights. Carlos assisted him. Cheers! 🥂🍷🍺 Food was good too.
Delicious food! Great service and the view is amazing
Back for or second holiday here, last being in 2023.
There’s a reason it’s the only holiday destination hotel we’ve ever returned to. The views and location are just perfect, being on the marina is just wonderful. The location is a great base. Easy to walk into Portimao or Praia da Rocha. Or if going further afield, drive, grab an Uber, river taxi or boat tour.
Last time we stayed at the smaller separate part of the hotel, this time in the main hotel and requested a marina view. Waking up and seeing the marina, and swallows flying around is wonderful.
All of the staff are polite, friendly and go above and beyond for you. They really make your stay that bit more special. The evening bar staff are so welcoming, allowing us to practice our Portuguese and helping with phrases.
We’ve eaten twice in the Italian restaurant, both times the meal and wine were high quality. The waiting staff are fantastic, very friendly and attentive. The portion sizes are huge too, I’ve not once been able to finish my plate!
Breakfast is always great, very good choice of food and drink. Again the harbour view makes it a great place to start your day.
The pool bar is rather pricey, but again it’s very good food and large portions.
The pool is salt water, which personally I prefer.
The hotel is a little tired looking in places and could do with a lick of paint, but I’m not on holiday to nitpick at paint or grouting. The rooms are very clean, and the beds are huge and comfy.
A nice touch is if your room doesn’t need cleaning you can put a sign on your door, which they’ll exchange for a free drink per occupant at the bar.
When in time we’re back in Portimao we’ll definitely be making it a third time stay here.
Beautiful location and views, gorgeous food and excellent service from the two gentleman who served us. If I came back I would definitely return to this restaurant. The food was delicious.
