(Golf Club Overview
Designed by Nick Faldo with strategic play in mind this 6,604 meters par72 championship course demands careful positioning to score well.
In a modern twist of a traditional recipe, cacti and wild herbs replace the role of Sunningdales heather, spartan Holm oaks and ancient olive trees take the place of a lush English woodland, and desert scrub bunkers of crushed limestone replace Berkshires sandy tracts in a golf course that revels in the classic principles of strategic play.Golf Club Information
Location: The Resort is just 35 minutes drive from Faro Airport along the A22 motorway, 4 kilometres inland from the beach resort of Armaēćo de Pźra.

This is the toughest course i have played in a long time! The layout and the views are stunning. Course in great condition.However in a group of 24 only 2 players scored over 30 points. not for the fainthearted or people looking to protect handicaps. Oh and dont try to walk. Buggies should be included in price. Play the Oconnor course much more forgiving and flatter

Got to mirror other review, this is a tough course which Sir Nick has tricked up. Hard greens with great run off gullies surrounding, that catch the errant approach. You have to have your A game here to score. However, for a young course it is in great nick.
I just hope you get to play it without wind, otherwise it's a definate card wrecker !!
