Nice course - some water, lots of bunkers, quite deep sand in some of them. Greens were marked and tired as were the tee boxes. Lovely setting, quite flat.

Brian M / Cheltenham rated 5 out of 5
Reviewed Sep 28 2014
Beautiful course attached to a luxury hotel. This is a long hard course for a 20 handicapper. It was in very good condition and was a very fair test of golf.
On the day we played the course was heavily overcrowded. We arrived about 10 minutes early for our tee time but were in a long queue waiting to go.
On arrival at the course we had been asked to prove our handicaps. Nothing wrong with that. However, the group in front of us were clearly not golfers (or were having the day from hell); one of them taking 4 shots to get more than 50 yards from the tee, and another not much better. I can only assume that handicaps aren't a universal requirement. It was a long day.
That said, the sun was shining, the company was good, I was on holiday rather than in work, and I like the course so much I would be happy to return and play it again.
For a non-resident, food and drink was expensive, but the breakfast, in particular, was delicious.

We played the Championship Course on the 22nd October as part of tour eight of us were on in the Algarve. I am afraid we were all extremely disappointed in the overall condition of the course with the tees in poor condition fairways bare and muddy and lacked definition. Overall a resort course that was living on past reputations which is past it's best and requires a huge amount of TLC to get it back into a semblance of order. Overall impression all eight agreed not one to visit again.
