Sir Nick Faldo has put his name on very few courses, and Amendoeira Faldo is the one he built to be a genuine talking point. Opened in 2008 during Portugal Masters week, it reimagines a classic strategic layout for the Algarve's terrain: cacti and wild herbs stand in for heather, crushed limestone bunkers replace English sand, and the whole course carries a desert-hued character unlike anything else in the region. In 2016, it was named Portugal's Best Golf Course at the World Golf Awards.
This is a course that punishes guesswork. The 1st is a testing, uphill risk-reward par 4 that sets the tone immediately, and the challenge rarely lets up: a meandering watercourse crosses several holes on the front nine, the 5th offers the bold option of driving straight across the resort's largest lake, and the back nine holds a handful of blind shots that will keep the clubhouse conversation going long after the round. It closes with a genuinely testing par-5 18th. Faldo built this for the thoughtful player rather than the big hitter, and it plays that way, rewarding careful positioning far more than raw distance. Confident mid-to-low handicappers will find plenty to enjoy; higher handicappers should come prepared for a serious test.
Facilities include a full driving range, a resident academy, and a clubhouse restaurant with sweeping views over both Amendoeira courses. Pairing this with its sister course, the O'Connor Jnr next door, makes for one of the most complete two-course golf breaks in the central Algarve.

The O'Connor course is Christy O'Connor Jnr's design for Amendoeira Golf Resort, opened in October 2008 alongside its sibling, the Faldo course. Where Faldo climbs the hillside, O'Connor stays down in the valley, a flatter and more forgiving round set among the orange groves outside Silves.
Water is the defining feature, in play on well over half the holes. The 3rd is the signature hole, a par-3 where a stream presses in from the right, its green watched over by a small Moorish-era relic on an island in the lake. Holes 7, 8 and 9 run alongside another lake in a stretch some now call the course's Amen Corner. The 5th keeps the theme going: Christy O'Connor Jnr wanted one hole that was simply oranges, and built it with groves running down both sides. Wind does much of the rest of the defending.
The buggy comes included with the green fee, and the resort adds a driving range, an academy with resident professionals, a clubhouse restaurant and snack bar, locker room and pro shop. Book a round to pair with the neighbouring Faldo course, and see the valley side of Amendoeira. (...)
