Henrique, Portuguese for Prince Henry, the son of King João I and his English-born queen Philippa Lancaster, who founded a navigation school here early in the 15th century. It has 51 rooms in total, as well as air conditioning, a 24-hour reception and check-out service, a hotel safe, lift access, a café, bar, TV room, restaurant, conference facilities and room service.

Breathtaking beauty and luxury with a good price
30 Apr 2025
I would go back to Sagres only for this hotel. The inside decor was stunning and the view was breathtaking. It was also so good value for money that when we walked in, I thought ”is this really the hotel I reserved”? I’m a breakfast person and I can honestly say 5/5 breakfast.

Not cheap but well worth it.
30 Apr 2025
From the minute we got there, the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Located in a small beach town with plenty of restaurants and shops just a few minutes away. Great views of a beautiful land/seascape. Soft sand beach a short walk away.
Pousada de Sagres, perched on the westernmost tip of the continent, truly feels like the edge of the world—in the best possible way. With breathtaking scenery, a relaxed atmosphere, and a cozy ambiance, it’s made even more special by the warm and welcoming staff.

Disappointed in this hotel
31 Mar 2025
This hotel is a disappointment for several reasons. Outdated , smelly rooms. The bathtub had poor water output. It was difficult getting in and out of the tub/shower. Hairdryer didn’t work. We stayed here on an Odessey trip and we were not pleased with the quality of this stay.

A wonderful experience
31 Mar 2025
From our arrival to departure we were treated as valued guests. All members of staff were very professional and clearly well trained. Our room had a wonderful view of the coast and a balcony for sitting out, weather allowing. We were not quite so lucky in that respect as Portugal is having a spell of unusually high rainfall and storms but it certainly made interesting viewing. The hotel suffered slight damage due to the high winds whilst we were there but again this was handled most professionally and no disruption was felt. We only knew because a member of the waiting team showed us photos which emphasised how unusual an occurrence it was. The food was wonderful, breakfast the best of our trip and the Cataplana we ordered at dinner the first night excellent. The staff throughout the hotel clearly took pride in their work and it showed. It is impossible to single out individual staff members but the restaurant and bar staff must have special mention. They were so smiley and friendly as well as efficient. We were placed in this hotel by default as our original selection was unavailable and were rather apprehensive but had no reason to be. Highly recommend
Tripadvisor Overview
The Pousada de Sagres, located in the Vila de Sagres, is just 5 minutes on foot from the beach, with views of the Fortaleza de Sagres and of the Farol do Cabo de São Vicente. It is one of the most intimate Pestana Charming Hotels, where you can admire the Ilhas do Martilhal, the Ponta da Atalaia, the Serra de Monchique and breathtaking sunsets from your hotel room in Sagres. During your stay, you can enjoy the outdoor swimming pool, play some tennis or relax at the Magic Spa. For dinning, the Pousada offers both a restaurant and bar.
Our ATOL number is T7365 and your protection begins as soon as you’re booked. If a supplier fails, you’ll get your money back, and you can’t get stranded abroad because ATOL ensures you’re brought home at no extra cost.
Payments safeguarded in a Trust Account
The airline is paid when you book and the rest of your payments are held in a trust account, which is controlled by the Travel Trust Association. This is much safer than an ABTA bond, because your money can only be released to pay the suppliers for each element of your holiday, and and your ATOL protection safeguards the whole holiday. Our TTA membership number is U7488.
