Finca Cortesin appoints new ambassador

Finca Cortesin, host of the 2023 Solheim Cup, has appointed Spanish professional and Ladies European Tour (LET) player Ana Peláez as its new ambassador to mark the approaching six-month countdown to the tournament.

The LET star further solidifies Finca Cortesin’s reputation as one of the top quality and lifestyle destinations in the world, while also demonstrating the resort’s dedication to supporting women’s sports.

A native of the Costa del Sol, Ana Peláez has stood out last year for her technical ability and her precision in the game, after having achieved victory at the Madrid Ladies Open in May 2022.

The 25-year-old Spaniard has high hopes of making Suzann Pettersen’s European team in September and is widely regarded as one of the country’s promising young players.

“It is an incredible opportunity to represent Finca Cortesin and have their unconditional support as I play week after week on the Ladies European Tour. Playing and training in the Solheim Cup 2023 venue is amazing and will boost my career”, said Peláez.

“The resort has a great track record of supporting local women and girls in the industry by providing them with the necessary conditions to succeed”, concluded.

“Finca Cortesin is delighted to welcome Ana Peláez as an ambassador. Having Ana as an ambassador for the resort will help us to consolidate our position as the venue for the Solheim Cup but also contributes to promoting golf among the new generation of Spanish golfers”, said Vicente Rubio, general director and president of Finca Cortesin.

“The resort is eager to collaborate with Ana to highlight the significance of Spain’s first-ever hosting of the Solheim Cup. We are dedicated to giving you all you need to fight for a place on the European squad in September of this year as the event’s host”, Rubio continued.

Portugal Golf Holidays – Algarve tourism sector expects a busy Easter

Lagos, Algarve. Algarve tourism sector expects a busy Easter

The Algarve tourism sector has good forecasts for this Easter

Hotels in the Algarve have reported great demand for the Easter break, and this trend is expected to continue into the summer.

João Fernandes, head of the Algarve Tourism Board (RTA), predicted that the region will have accommodation occupancy rates of at least 90% around Easter, and he added that April as a whole should see occupancy rates of 65% to 70%.

Hélder Martins, president of the Association of Hotels and Tourist Enterprises of the Algarve (AHETA), sees an occupancy per room of around 70% during Easter, an increase of 3% in hotel occupancy compared to the same time in 2022.

João Fernandes expects 2023 to be a year of records in the sector due to the region’s marketing, which has resulted in successful records of passengers disembarking at Faro airport.

The president of AHETA noted that Easter “lives a lot from the Spanish market”, but the UK market is preponderant in the Algarve, along with the French and Dutch, as well as new markets like North America, which is growing despite the lack of direct flights.

AHETA’s president Hélder Martins said these visitors have arrived even in the low season after entering through Lisbon and Seville, but it’s vital to solidify this market to increase it.

According to João Fernandes, 30% of Algarve bookings are pre-paid, and there is a greater balance between direct visitor bookings and travel agency bookings.

“Everything points to another record year, but what tourism never tyres of saying is that we are optimistic, but careful because obviously there is great instability at an international level and some expectations may be frustrated due to external factors”, concluded João Fernandes.
