Special occasions call for special locations. Events like product launches or exclusive meetings with your top clients or business partners don’t usually fit in the average meeting room, but should be hosted in a high-class ambience. But where can we create these magical moments in a unique scenery?
Have you come across the Penha Longa Resort yet? This luxury hotel is located in the heart of the Sintra mountains in Portugal, with 30 minutes driving time actually not too far from Lisbon. And it won’t disappoint you if you are looking for historic event spaces, finest service, and green landscape.
It was originally founded as a monastery in the 14th century, and the once royal rooms are now offering versatile meeting spaces with a quite unique design of each individual meeting room. While you can also find traditional, modern-styled plenary rooms, the resort has some very elegant and even majestic-like meeting spaces which provide the perfect scenery if you want to invite your guests to a high-class event or exquisite dinner event.
From planning the company’s next steps at an exclusive board meeting over bonding with the team over some quality time, or rewarding your top employee’s a memorable incentive trip, this 5-star hotel can accommodate for all occasions. It is great to wind down from the hectic office routines and focus on efficient meetings because it is located within a 2.2 square kilometer national park, no distractions if you don’t count the beautiful views.
And don’t get scared of the 5 stars. I have to admit, I came across other hotels in e. g. Athens, Rome, or Mallorca in the past, that were more expensive than the Penha Longa Resort and offered only half as excellent service and/or looked pretty run-down as well. Let’s check your dates and find out the current rates.
To give your attendees a break between long meeting days, there are many off-site activities close-by, and the beaches of Cascais and Estoril are only 10 minutes away as well. Moreover, one of my favorites of this location is also the ‘sunshine guarantee’ for almost all year round. Living in Malta with the same conditions, I can only tell you from an event organizer’s perspective, it is quite a blessing to be able and count on awesome weather when you need it.
Last but not least, all of this high-class package doesn’t come at the expense of our environment. The team of the Penha Longa Resort makes eco-friendly events possible through a lot of great sustainable actions such as a ban of plastic straws and using glass jars at coffee stations, sourcing fresh products locally and seasonally, growing own herbs in their Chef’s garden, or making sure all material is recycled properly.
