What the club says: The first of two Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Courses - "Monte Rei North" - opened for play in June 2007. This par 72 Championship golf course measuring 6567m from the Tournament tees is a truly unique design; with water coming into play on eleven of the eighteen holes, the golf course features an enjoyable series of eight par-4s, five par-3s and five par-5s in a challenging and distinctive layout.

Reviewed Aug 28 2021 by George L - rated 5 out of 5 Stunning course and wonderful service
So sad that the course had been impacted by the wildfires around the area recently resulting in a massive loss of trees around the golf course. The club have done an amazing job though as all the playing surfaces remain exceptional and was a true delight to play a course that has been on the playlist for a while.(Round played: Aug 2021 - Score: 93 Handicap: 21.4)

Reviewed Jun 30 2018 by Stuart A - rated 5 out of 5 Amazing experience, staff were very welcoming and polite on this excellent resort. I really enjoyed this even if my golf was not very good, the course is well thought out and a lot of holes play longer than they look. You can get there nice and early to be taken to the range where a pyramid of golf balls awaits, then onto the practice chipping areas and putting greens, before teeing off.

Reviewed Apr 24 2018 by Mbachi N - rated 5 out of 5 Best Golf Course in the Algarve
Visited Monte Rei last weekend and was blown away by how good this course is. The facilities are exceptional, the course layout is great and, considering the monsoon we had that morning, the fairways were not too soft underfoot. We were all blown away by how well the course played and the views are stunning. If you only play one course in the Algarve, this is the one you must play. It's not cheap but that's because of how good it is. Slight negative was the food but it's not enough to stop us returningCourse (layout/challlenge)
