PR1ME Energize
★★★★☆
Lifestyle Hotel
Monte Gordo, Portugal
Just 400 metres from Monte Gordo Beach, PR1ME Energize combines contemporary design, wellness, sport, and active living in one of the Algarve’s sunniest coastal destinations.
About the hotel
Located in the heart of Monte Gordo, just a short walk from the beach, PR1ME Energize offers an ideal base for discovering Portugal’s Eastern Algarve. Surrounded by long sandy beaches, nature reserves, cycling routes, and traditional fishing villages, the hotel embraces a lifestyle centred around wellbeing, outdoor activities, and relaxation.
Originally transformed from an 1980s building by renowned Portuguese architects Saraiva + Associados, with interiors by designer Nini Andrade Silva, the hotel combines minimalist contemporary design with natural elements inspired by the Algarve’s dunes and coastline. Sustainability also plays an important role, making it the first Biosphere Certified hotel in the Algarve.
Accommodation includes 105 rooms and suites designed with comfort and functionality in mind. Guests can enjoy the rooftop swimming pool, Energize Spa with heated indoor pool, Technogym fitness centre, Bike Centre, FUEL Restaurant by Chakall, and a year-round programme of wellness and sporting activities.
What distinguishes PR1ME Energize is its active philosophy. Rather than focusing solely on relaxation, the hotel encourages guests to combine fitness, healthy gastronomy, wellness, and local experiences throughout their stay, making it one of Portugal’s leading lifestyle hotels.
Today, PR1ME Energize is best suited to active travellers, couples, cyclists, runners, wellness enthusiasts, and beach lovers looking to experience a more energetic side of the Algarve.

Creator experience
“What I enjoyed most about Pr1me Energize was its refreshing approach to relaxation. An active lifestyle was encouraged without ever feeling rushed. Walking to the beach, enjoying outstanding meals after a day outdoors, and returning to such a welcoming atmosphere made every day feel perfectly balanced. It was the ideal place to recharge on Portugal’s southern coast.”
