What the club says: Vale da Pinta - Designed by the famous American golf course architect Ronald Fream and inaugurated in 1992 Vale da Pinta has earned its place as one of the best designed courses in the Algarve and in Europe.
Gramacho Golf Course - After his success designing the Vale de Pinta course, Ronald Fream teamed up with the former world No. 1 Nick Price to create the unique design of Gramacho. With 18 holes and 27 greens, plus numerous different tee points, players are able to enjoy the same course time and time again but always with slightly different challenges.

Excellent views
There are some excellent views to this very picturesque course and well worth a visit. Lovely clubhouse, shop and facilities once again spoilt the visit by insisting on play in 4 balls, which did just not suit our group of 6. Annoyingly there were 2's and 3's on the course, which made the ruling very ambiguous and wrong. For that said the course was a pleasure to play and in very good condition.Reviewer Rating

Tough walk of a course, get a buggy
Tough walk of a course, get a buggy. a lovely course, but a tough and long walk. Pace of play can be slow due to the toughness of the course. No chipping or driving range is available at the course.Reviewer Rating

Pretty good
We played both Gramacho and Vale Da Pinta and have to say they were in pretty good condition. some of the greens were a little wooly in places but they did roll true. Three altogether enjoyable rounds. Would be nice to see the drinks cart more as it was 28 degrees!Reviewer Rating

Great course
Very nice course, lovely to play but the pace of play is so slow. We waited on every hole without exception and there was one par 3 where there were 3 groups visible.Reviewer Rating

Nice Course and well worth a visit
Really nice course, unfortunately the greens let it down in this visit as they had a lot of weeds present, but apart from that the course was in good condition.Reviewer Rating

Nice course worth playing
Second time playing La Pinta, course in good condition, very quiet. A bit fiddly in places, not always a driver off the tee. Greens good, rolled well if a little hard to read. Nice clubhouse for after round pint.Reviewer Rating

played Pinta and Gramacho courses, Both very different, They are challenging but not overly difficult. The only slight problem we had. is that, we had pre booked buggies prior to travelling and when we arrived at the courses, We were told that buggies were not guaranteed. due to numbers. We did actually get buggies but it would have been a problem. if we had not.

Gramacho was in pretty good condition for our early May visit. Greens, fairways, tee boxes and bunker all looking good and clearly well maintained. The staff are excellent and happy to have a laugh and joke with the patrons. We played as a fourball and managed to get two buggies, pace of play (14:30 tee off) was good and the course was a good level for hcps 14 - 26. Highly recommended for any tour to the area.
