An Algarve oasis

This summer,  the new luxury Martinhal Beach Resort & Hotel will be welcoming families when it opens on Portugal’s Algarve. Surrounded by a national park, the resort includes a five-star boutique hotel, spacious village houses and privately owned villas and townhouses. Alongside a freeform oasis pool, there is a spa, sports club and two crèches for children of varying ages. A week for a family of four staying in an Ocean House costs from £1,700 from July 1.
