Hotel Information: Opened in 2003 on the site of a former private club popular with Britons for a half-century, Luz Bay Club Hotel retains a club-like ambience, including landscaped gardens with citrus trees and lawns, a squash court, and tennis courts. Guests come here for rest and relaxation at Luz's slow pace of life.

Amenity highlights: Surrounded by sun terraces, two 16-metre pools and an eight-metre children's pool provide uncrowded swimming. In addition to a complimentary English buffet breakfast, the hotel restaurant serves a dinner buffet nightly. From April to October, a poolside bar serves snack foods such as burgers and omelettes, and the hotel bar offers live music five nights weekly.

Insider tip: A promenade hand-paved in Portugal's traditional tan and black-marble squares extends 350 metres alongside Luz Beach and the ocean beyond. Strollers contemplating the waves can miss a small opening in the stone wall on the promenade's other side that leads to Roman-bath ruins.
