This course has come n in leaps and bounds not as good as some of its local rivals but well worth a visit.

Very nice course, in excellent condition (although new holes were a bit dry in comparison). A great mix of holes, some very visually appealing. A course that requires good golf management, driver not always the shot from the tee. Thoroughly enjoyable round, would definately return.

Reviewed Apr 27 2012
Played Corks/Olives mid-April with 3 mates. Mixed feelings about this one - thought that the majority of the course was good fun and a challenge, with lots of interesting holes. Hole 1 of the Sobreiros (Corks) loop is one of the most scenic tees in the Algarve and of course hole 8 of the Olives is good fun. The tee shot on the 1st hole of the Olives loop is also quite daunting and looks very picturesque.
Not as good as the QDL courses in terms of general condition and it did have some bland holes on both sets of 9 holes. However, for the price, it is good value (especially as we used the early bird offer) and I would play this again.
Would maybe try and play the Pines loop as I believe this has more of the original layout than Corks, where the new holes lack any character and excitement.

This course is one of my favourites here on The Algarve.
It is a testing course which is always maintained in immaculate condition. Beware loads and loads of water on the back nine.

Some really challenging holes
Really enjoyed playing the Pines and Corks courses (so missed out on "Olives"). I had a great round, so obviously loved it. The two courses are intertwined, so some walking between greens and tees was required but there are some very long 5s, 7th/8th on Corks are very long, so save some energy for them. Some of the greens and paths were showing signs of neglect, but overall in very nick. Staff and food excellent!!(Round played: Dec 2020 - Score: 90 Handicap: 19.9)

Great course, all 3 nines are different and some challenging holes. Greens in good condition. Long hitters can potentially get a good score. 8th and corks is a beast of a hole, a proper par 5. Food and drinks are good, staff are very friendly and accommodating. I go every year and look forward to it. Not as a big a name as some of the other courses in the area but well worth a visit.

Outstanding and challenging course
A beautiful and well presented golf course. Quite demanding with some fabulous but tricky water hazards. Tight fairways and lightning fast but true greens. Very busy in mid Feb so took 4.5 hrs to complete. Beautiful clubhouse; super views.Reviewer Rating
