Penina Hotel & Golf Resort is a golf resort located in the Algarve region of southern Portugal, between Portimão and Lagos. The resort spans 360 acres (1.5 km2) and contains a hotel complex, golf courses, tennis courts, a football pitch and a running track. It is owned and operated by JJW Hotels & Resorts.

The resort's 18-hole Championship Course, designed by Sir Henry Cotton and originally called The Penina, was the first resort course to be built in Portugal and has been the venue for the Portuguese Open on many occasions, most recently in 2006. There are also two 9-hole courses, the Resort Course and the Academy Course.
