from United Kingdom A nice forgiving course A nice setting that is much more forgiving than some of the other courses in the area. Many tree lined holes, with only a little water on this course, gives the impression of narrow tee shots, but you can have a real go from the tee at some of the holes here, the 18th being drivable for big hitters for instance, and if you're slightly wayward, you're still in play which is always nice.
The par 3 4th hole is the stand out hole here. Beautiful.
Once again we were very well looked after by staff here. There was some construction work going on around the course and we received a free drink to apologise for any interference. The work didn't cause us any problems but the gesture was nice and much appreciated.

from United States 18 on The Old after Storms Fantastic round on The Old this morning, storms the previous day meant 5/6 big trees had fallen down but no impact on the golf and I was really impressed with the drainage, no puddles at all just a few bunkers out of play and no buggy option which was ace.
I found it pretty tight even with no wind and playing off 3 handicap I was pretty rusty but lost balls were bad shots and good shots and straight drives rewarded with easier approaches and angles into the greens.
Green were great and fairways.
I can see why this was top rated in Portugal before Monte Rei came along
Highly recommend this golf course in the Algarve, not too dissimilar to Palmeras in places but better all round

from United Kingdom Quality greens and hole design. Excellent greens, very true roll. I liked a lot of the shorter par 4's, you have to play sensible tee shots to leave a good chance in. Inviting first hole downhill, some great looking par 3's. You can see why this has held pro tournaments as from the tees looking out onto the fairways, the design is there to see. Bunkers immaculate, tees well used but good, lots of traffic over peak months. Fairways great. Would recommend! Walked with a trolley, some up and down bits so buggy may be more suitable if you don't like some walking up slope. Distance between tees not an issue, majority are close by.
Greens and hole design stand out here.

from United Kingdom A beautiful gem & must play course in Vilamoura. Aesthetically beautiful to the eye and a pleasure to play. A real test of accuracy & course management. Played early March and it was in a very good condition. First time visit, but safe to say, I’ll definitely be back again. It’s very up & down in elevation, so it’s well worth investing in a golf buggy. One minor little niggle… there needs to be a large net installed to separate the driving range from the 5th fairway, as there were practice balls everywhere.

from Switzerland Now overpriced, We played the Old Course in April 19 - it has long been a favourite. The new owners have spent money on the infrastructure, adding 30m to the driving range. The green fees have however risen sharply and are comparable to the prestige Quinta courses and Victoria, This is fine if you get a prestige experience but you don't. Buggies @ 45€ but no ice. Fairways 2 & 3 is really poor condition, 80% devoid of grass.
