Played here many times as i visit Luz regularly. My personal favourite in the local area. Very playable course but not a pushover by any means. Always well maintained. Good practice facilities as well. Highly recommended.

was a great course

irrigation is shot
Tee boxes scruffy
greens not true
i have played this course since it opened. this is the worse it has been - possibly overused as it is a Resort Course. management need to concentrate on the course and not just building Villas. will start to loose Members at this rate. Wake up !!!

Very nice course. Front 9 is a little annoying hitting over some blind hills etc, however the back 9 is really great. Challenging pictoresque holes with some water and oustanding views. Def would hire buggy as some long distance in between holes. Greens fast and consistant when played and clubhouse is nice. Def play this over Parque de Floresta (which is a stupid crazy golf course built on the side of a hill!). Another option is Onyria Palmares nearby - a fantastic course..

I played this course with my husband. The course is quite up and down and you have various stances to deal with. I enjoyed the experience but the pace was very slow.

Nice course close to Lagos

The course was in really good condition and a nice challenge without being too difficult to enjoy.

Some really nice views but tainted a little bit by being almost completely surrounded by villas, more so than some other nice courses around the area.

Super convenient as it’s only a €5 euro, under 10 min taxi drive from Lagos centre.

Interesting layout with water and the number of blind shots making it a challenge despite some short holes. Bunkers raked daily but absolutely rock hard.

This is an interesting and enjoyable course to play due to the layout. Unfortunately it is spoilt by poor maintenance. The greens and tees are just shocking and nobody seems to care. The bunkers are solid with just the very top raked. These need digging out to get them back to a playable condition. The greens and tees will need serious maintenance work to bring these back to a good playable condition.
