A very tricky course
A very tricky course very well looked after and manicured. The clubhouse, shop, facilities and welcome was exceptional spoilt once again by the stupid insistence of 4 ball play and splitting up small groups of visitors. Once more the annoying factor that 2 and 3 balls could be observed on the course made this another visit in the not very enjoyable category. Noticeable too, were the increase prices of absolutely everything on offer. Not the best advertisement to encourage visitors. ShameReviewer Rating

Harder than it looks
This course was probably the toughest I've played. Fairways are tighter than they look because as soon as you're towards the first cut you will find a number of trees with tight, dense canopies waiting to block your next shot. Lots of low punch shots to get back on the fairway. The rough was soft and mulchy so you needed good shots to escape. Beautiful course though. Prime, Challenge and Prestige loops all had their merits. Very walkable in November but wouldn't have fancied walking it in summer. Overall, a beautiful place to play that will be kind to you if you're hitting straight.Reviewer Rating

Lovely golf course
I play here quite regularly and continue to find the narrowness of the fairways a real challenge but one that one takes for granted. The reception, the grounds staff, and all else is first class.Reviewer Rating

Do not Miss this course
If you are in Vilamoura do not miss this course, it is great. Tree lined sloping fairways where you cannot just "Biff" the ball and hope for the best. The greens are varied (not in speed) and there are water and bunker obstacles which have to be negotiated. Playing this is a must.(Round played: Sep 2019 - Score: 91 Handicap: 17.1)

Outstanding
Vila Sol is the oldest of the Pestana course's and in my opinion the best. Wonderful tree lined fairways, but not too tight, with holes where you have to pick your spot not just blast towards. A good test of golf with some wonderful holes protected by sand and water.(Round played: Sep 2019 - Score: 88 Handicap: 16.9)

What a lovely golf course
Really enjoyed Vila Sol. The course was in very good condition and the greens quick but true. We played the 10th & 19th courses, both of which we?d love to play again.We had an early afternoon tee time but, when we got to the clubhouse for lunch, it was absolute mayhem with the waitresses running round trying to keep everybody happy. Not helped by some very rude golfers but it did seem that they could have done with more staff.

Very busy
Enjoyable round on fairly challenging course. Having the three 9s is very helpful in trying to get everyone out on the course, but then can cause bottlenecks at the turn and slow up a reasonably well paced round. Fairways and greens in good order. Easy enough to read the greens, but some are very large with the odd 3 putt creeping into the round to spoil a good card. Paired up with others and they were delightful company.(Round played: Sep 2018 - Score: 97 Handicap: 17.3)
