Highly Recommend
After a couple of years of booking with UK agencies for my Golf in Portugal I decided to try a Algarve Golf.

What a difference, the service I have received from James is outstanding with responses coming with in the hour the payment app and ability to see the progress of each booking on line is excellent.

Algarve Golf were able to obtain for me tee times at the best rates and no hassle on the courses I was looking to play what more could you ask for

Alamos
Still playable after very long summer

You have to take into consideration the drought that this area has experience this year in particular.Yes the majority of the fairways were burnt and without grass but you could not fault the greens or tee boxes which the course openly says they have to prioritise as both dams are dryThe course has the felling of being quite compared to others due to the design it’s a pity we did not get the chance to play in its glory as some of the holes would have been stunning.
Salgados
Flat with Water
Thu, 15th Sep 2022

This course has not suffered in the same ways as others in the area and as such is busy, I mean very busy with late groups of playing teeing off from both the 1 st and 10 tee.With so many players on the course daily as you would expect it is showing signs of wear.The course is the flattish I have played in the area with a number of dog legs and water the protection of the green.Good value for money but be warned it’s busy
Vale da Pinta
Well Maintained
Wed, 14th Sep 2022

The management have succeeded where others have failed to maintain green fairways and good greens.The course was well maintained and flowed reasonably well with round just slightly over the 4 hr mark.Good variation on holes made for good experience

Bom Sucesso
There is a reason the course is quite
Fri, 9th Sep 2022

I never like to criticise a course that you can see has ran into difficulties, sadly this is the case a Bom Sucesso.I accept that the half finished villas and hotel should not impact your view of the actual golf course, but when combined with a number of the greens having areas which we’re unplayable due to various issues and fairways which were narrow and in poor condition, you come to the conclusion that this is a course in need of helpAs you would expect the course is quite with I suspect only the most loyal of members playing Personally I would not play this course with 3 other championship courses close by, if I had known the condition I would not have played. Played September 2022 never again
Aroeira I
Resonable Course
Mon, 5th Sep 2022

No question this course is far superior to its sister course and as such it was busy, the condition of the course given the time of year was what you would expect we played early September with the greens recently been cored and the water drought was clear to see in a number of the feature holesPersonally I would not rate as high as Quinta Del Peru The staff at the check in and club house are friendly and the food was very good at the club house
Quinta do Peru
Good Course
Sun, 4th Sep 2022

The course was in excellent condition with the green been true and fast, bunkers were well maintained with the rough at a level you would expect to see.I course offered a driving range close to the club house and first tee so no long walk required Club house staff were friendly and choice of food excellent, I would recommend a visit if in the area.
Aroeira II
Not recommended any time soon
Sat, 3rd Sep 2022

When there is more sand on the greens than bunkers you know you are in trouble.Simply management should close the course, I except it was late in the year we played September 2022 but management should not have allowed us to play as it was clear that the course is not been maintained.
