The space

Set just outside vibrant Lagos, Eden Lodge is a spacious coastal retreat designed for groups who want privacy, sunshine and plenty of places to come together. For a hen weekend, it offers the kind of layout that makes the whole trip feel easy: sociable outdoor areas, a generous pool, relaxed dining spaces, and wellness touches for slower mornings after a night out.

The lodge sleeps up to 16 guests for hen stays, giving your group a private base close to the Algarve coast without being in the middle of the bustle. Days can be as relaxed or as full as you like: start with coffee under the shade trees, spend the afternoon by the saltwater pool, then gather around the outdoor bar before heading into Lagos for dinner and drinks. If you are planning a celebration with a mix of personalities, this works especially well because there is space for party moments, pampering time and quieter corners too.

The outdoor setup is one of the biggest draws. There are three large dining tables for group meals, festoon-lit communal areas for evening drinks, a cabana bed with mattresses and pillows, sun loungers, an olive tree lounge seating area and a green garden space of around 85m². It feels private, relaxed and made for groups who love spending time outdoors.

Inside the house

Inside, Eden Lodge has a practical and sociable setup for a hen group. The internal lodge accommodation is arranged across comfortable bedrooms, with bed linen, towels and toiletries provided, so everyone can arrive ready to settle in. Ceiling fans, shutters and natural cross ventilation help keep things comfortable during warmer Algarve days, while underfloor heating, extra blankets and heaters are available for cooler winter evenings.

The self-catering kitchen gives you the freedom to do breakfast at your own pace, prep grazing boards, mix cocktails or keep snacks and drinks ready between activities. There is also a dining table indoors, useful for planning the day, hosting a relaxed brunch or setting up games before an evening out. If you would rather not cook, a private chef can be arranged, which is a lovely option for a special hen dinner at the lodge.

For downtime, the property includes a games console and table tennis, so there is always something easy to dip into between pool time and getting ready. The layout makes it simple for the group to split naturally: some guests can be in the kitchen, others outside by the bar, and others relaxing in the lounge areas without anyone feeling cut off from the celebration.

Hen weekend highlights

Eden Lodge has all the right ingredients for a hen weekend that feels celebratory without being overcomplicated. The private non-heated saltwater swimming pool is a real focal point, measuring 15m x 5m with a depth of approximately 0.9m to 1.6m. Add the eight sun loungers, cabana bed and outdoor shower, and you have a brilliant setup for poolside playlists, matching swimwear moments and long sunny afternoons together.

The hot tub and sauna bring a spa-style feel to the stay, ideal for easing into the day after a night in Lagos or adding a pamper session to the itinerary. The garden and shaded seating areas are great for hosting hen games, yoga, drinks tastings or a relaxed pre-dinner gathering.

Food and drinks are well covered too. The outdoor bar has a large surface, filtered water tap and two beverage coolers, making it easy to keep fizz, mixers and soft drinks chilled. The pizza oven fits two pizzas at a time and firewood is provided, while the barbecue can be used with charcoal or firewood. As evening falls, the festoon lights and two gas fire pits create a warm, sociable setting for speeches, stories and late-night chats.

Location & getting around

Eden Lodge is only around 10 minutes from Lagos, one of the Algarve’s most popular coastal towns. For hen groups, that means you can enjoy the space and privacy of the lodge while still being close to restaurants, cocktail bars, nightlife and beautiful beaches. Lagos is known for its lively marina, cobbled streets, beach clubs, boat trips and dramatic coastline, so it is easy to build an itinerary around the group’s style.

Spend one day beach-hopping, book a boat trip to see the caves and coastline, head into town for a long lunch, or plan a big night out without needing to travel far. The location also works well for mixed-energy groups: anyone who wants a slower day can stay back by the pool, while others head into Lagos for activities or shopping.

For getting around, pre-booked taxis or private transfers are the simplest option for evenings out and airport journeys. Having transport arranged in advance is especially helpful for hen groups, so everyone can move together and enjoy the weekend without needing to coordinate multiple cars.
