Reviewed Sep 24 2014

A breath-taking course but if you don't hit the ball with a degree of accuracy and length or if you're not too fond of sand it will eat you for breakfast - i loved the back 9, very dramatic with lots of blind tee shots, the fairways are excellent, the greens are true, the clubhouse is somewhat soulless which was a bit of a disappointment - I play off 10 and struggled)... we played on a twilight greenfee (85 euros), I think the full green fee is excessive, but that's golf in Portugal for you! Would recommend if you're a competent player

Excellent course but you have to be able to drive to get the ball in a position to reach the green in regulation. The greens are fast but in very good condition a great course. The staff and service is secound to none. The views from the 19th hole are great.

Awful especially when compared to some magnificent Algarve courses such as old course, Victoria, vale do lobo royal!! Most tee shots are blind and u have no idea where to place the ball. No gps in the buggy. We had 3 pairs all come in feeling the same way. Champ courses are meant to b tuff but this one is just way too far!! Stay on the coast is my advice and avoid this one!

Played Faldo and O\'Connor course this week - both fantastic condition. Faldo great layout but O\'Connor unremarkable. Both however let down by poor service. They have spent multi millions on the course - some satnav buggies would help for bunker and water carries too. Go and play Faldo not O\'Connor but have lunch before you get there and your 19th hole pint somewhere else.

Nice course and great people who work there.

Major niggle was lack of drinks cart in 4o degrees weather! Only 1 drinks cart for 2 courses. Not good enough as we never got to see them until the 14th!!

I guess 'Sir Nick' was going through another divorce when he designed this, as he has certainly made it mean and tough - lots of bunkers everywhere! Apart from that it is a great course. The greens and fairways were immaculate, it's a great layout and a great setting. I would certainly recommend a buggy though as the walk from the 11th to the 12th is a beast.
