Quinta da Ria Golf Course was the first of two 18-hole golf courses in a spectacular location on the coast of the eastern Algarve, known locally as 'Sotavento'. Quinta da Ria, situated in the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve, has already been described by experienced golfers as the most breathtaking golf course in the Region. In fact, there will be no houses, or villas, or apartments to distract you from your game: just you and a breathtaking nature. A nice open golf course, very thick rough, lower edges bunkers and some water coming in to play on some holes.

Course was in great condition, the greens were superb we all really enjoyed it.
Only minor criticism was some of the fairways were overwatered.

Der Course ist für uns unbeschreiblich. Der Platz in einem perfekten Zustand und der Ausblick beim Spielen gigantisch.
