What the club says: Par 72, open golf course with little vegetation. The openess of the course gives a links atmosphere and offers lakes to contend with on a number of holes.

excellent course price really good
Salgados Golf Course is a scenic and challenging course in Portugal, noted for its numerous water hazards and tight fairways, which can lead to a high number of lost balls for less accurate players. Reviews praise the excellent condition of the greens and fairways, friendly staff, and good clubhouse facilities. However, common criticisms include the course's busyness, potentially slow play, and the lack of a traditional practice rangeReviewer Rating

Lots of water!!
Course was not in the best of condition but it’s near the sea so maybe that had an effect. Very windy and overcast on the day. Challenging with water hazards on the majority of holes. Nice clubhouse, poor practice facilities for a course like thisReviewer Rating

Lots of water
On my latest trip to Portugal, this was the only course which I had played previously, so I knew there was a lot of water, as this is a coastal course which makes good use of the terrain to bring water into play on all holes except the 17th.As we could walk to the course from our hotel, we played it 3 times, including on an allocated 'day off', where 3 of us wanted to play. First day was very windy, which made avoiding the water even more difficult, and we even had to put up with rain on the third round, which slowed down the very quick greens. The greens were consistently the same speed, which always helps, but some rain in the days before our arrival meant that there were puddles around the course, even if it meant you could fire the ball into the greens and it would hold.
Whilst the water (and in our case wind) makes it difficult to keep the ball in play, the course itself is a fair challenge, and is not overly long off the yellow or red tees.
Food in the clubhouse was well priced and tasty. The staff were very friendly, although on one occasion there was some confusion about whether we had booked/changed a tee time. However, because it was a quiet time of year, we fitted into the booking schedule without too much ado.
Because we had an extra game, we found out the cost was 60Euro, which in my opinion is a little overpriced, but there are deals to be made if you want to haggle for a group discount.
Bunkers were reasonably stocked with sand, although the rain before we flew into Faro meant the sand was a little compacted. They had also sanded a lot of areas which had gotten very wet, which made things look untidy, but generally, those areas were not in play.
Overall, I would recommend, but only for a single round, and I'm fairly sure I'll play it again, just for the challenge of trying to keep the same ball in play for 18 holes!

Great holiday golf
Really enjoyable holiday golf. The course is not too long but it requires good course management. Some of the par 5's are particularly tough. A nice relaxing course, easy walking, and surrounded by birds from the neighbouring wetlands.Reviewer Rating

Lovely course just congested
Course is in great condition considering it was late April and it has been a tough winter. Excellent course layout just thought the holes with dog legs were a bit short because if you were hitting a driver off the box you would miss fairway. Only complaint was the course had far too many people on it to maintain a decent speed of play.(Round played: Apr 2018 - Score: 92 Handicap: 17.8)

Water. Water. More water.
Beautiful course - instead of rough, they've opted for water. Keep it straight and you'll score well as the par fours are all short.The high handicappers in our group really struggled with it, saying it's a course for better players.
