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!

The course has a lot of water around the holes which makes it an interesting course to play in the wind and as it is next to the sea it does get windy
