In February 24 it is in a very poor state

Played today. The Alvor nine is closed.
The other two nines are in poor condition.
Please read RECENT TripAdvisor reviews on the course, I wish I had. Not told beforehand of issues relating to the abysmal greens and poor fairways and they still charge full price for playing and for the cart.

One of the very best 27 holes in the whole of Portugal and my favourite. I can't find anything not to like about Palmares especially if you get to play the Praia loop. Conditioning has always been good although a hear it suffered from a recent drought along with a few other courses on the Algarve. Well worth the visit for the clubhouse alone.

Could Be Great

This course could be great (even the best in the Algarve) if they sorted the water problem out. 3 different 9's all very different. Overlooks the sea on numerous holes.
If they got the fairways watered and it was not so dry then it would be up there as one of, if not the nicest course in the Algarve, Shame.

Nice course worth playing

Third time playing Palmares, it's clubhouse has been rebuilt since last here and looks stunning. Played the Alvor/Lagos combination which is the best 18 in my opinion. Some nice looking holes playing down to the sea. Greens okay a bit patchy in places as were the fairways, perhaps spent all the money on the clubhouse and hotel and forgot to maintain the course. Still enjoyed the round though.

Palmares Golf

Lovely Course with some fantastic looking holes, all overlooking the sea. Lots of building works going on currently, reminds me of Monte Rei. Good challenging course in really good condition.

Alvor course currently very dry / scorched, meaning the fairways are very firm - good for distance but challenging for ball striking with irons. Praia is always a challenge with a lot of sand and difficult lines into greens.

First time worth a visit

Our first time here and it was very pleasant. They have 3 lots of nine holes and we played the one along the coastline. Personally I am not a big fan of links golf so of the two 9 holes preferred the other nine. But for those that like a few dunes and coastline, this will fit the bill.

Stayed at the hotel. Lovely course even if the first 9 were just getting over maintenance. Clubhouse is nothing to write home about but good value considering quality of the course!

Awesome place

I'd seen the pictures on the internet and Palmares looked spectacular and we weren't disappointed. There are three nines, which can be played as three 18-hole combinations to add plenty of variety if you are there for a few days. The Alvor offers a gentle start and the first three holes nice but nothing spectacular, but it ramps up several notches after that with some superb elevated tee shots down towards the ocean. The Prai nine has a links feel to it - a bit more wild and rugged right down by the sea, while the Lagos nine probably has a bit of both. There was not a weak hole among them. Greens were in great condition, facilities were superb and some of the views are just epic. Amazing place to play golf.

Great course with stunning views

Love it over there at Palmares, course in great condition and the greens lightning quick. Not the cheapest round of golf but the great views and condition of the course make this one a treat.
