Much more than a Sports Club
Quinta de Monserrate was founded in 2015 on an old property that is over 300 years old.
The slogan “A farm in the City – (Quinta means Farm)” was adopted and internalized by everyone.
Maintaining all the traces of the past and with lots of green space, conditions were created for the practice of sport combined with leisure.
With 8 padel courts, 1 gym and a Bar/Restaurant da Quinta, the visits to the “Quinta” became something (almost) mandatory in the weekly routine of hundreds of people. The exponential growth of padel as a sport on the national scene and the hospitality of the entire QM staff were the main causes of this phenomenon.
Still during the first year of activity two major innovations in the project happened: Quinta de Monserrate extended to Braga with 3 indoor padel courts, starting the sport in the city, and created a space for indoor padel very close to the main house in Matosinhos consisting of 6 indoor courts.
On September 1, 2016, Quinta de Monserrate entered into a commercial and strategic partnership with Sport Club do Porto, a century-old entity with great prestige in national sports, which allowed it to create another space dedicated to various sports.
In Parque da Cidade, a green and privileged area in the city of Porto, the foundations were created for an authentic sports city, focused on training highly competitive players. The results have been impressive, with several national champions, and several players present in the different national teams.
In 2018, another opportunity arose to spread the Quinta de Monserrate to the city of Vila Nova de Gaia. Again based on
Padel, was made from scratch, a project with 6 Indoor courts, 2 outdoor courts and a unique environment for practice and development. With a local, highly capable team that showed all its talent from an early age, being a club of national reference for its management.
Finally, in 2020 a new commercial partnership was developed with Sonae, in a pilot project that is unique in Portugal, using Padel as a vehicle to promote well-being among the Institution’s employees.
The projects certainly won’t stop here because we always believe that sport at Quinta de Monserrate is good… for everyone!
We believe in the values of Sport, we are very proud of the community we are creating and sporting results our players are conquering!

Testimonials
We visited the restaurant for a birthday party where the space was reserved for our group. The atmosphere was welcoming, and they allowed us to decorate with some extra items from the party theme. The starters and drinks were initially very good, with the ribs being a particular highlight. For the main course, we opted for the codfish with cream, which was also tasty.
An excellent club where I have the pleasure of playing weekly and having incredible lessons with Pedro Martins! The best! Attentive staff. I highly recommend it to everyone.
