San Lourenco Golf is a par 72 course located in Quinta do Lago and is considered one of the best and most beautiful golf courses in Europe. The fact that this is an award-winning course is no coincidence. Bordering with the breathtaking Ria Formosa Natural Park, some of its holes are blessed with what can only be described as exquisite beauty, complemented with salt water lakes. If the first holes present no major surprise or challenges, after the 3rd, closer to the estuary, San Lourenco starts to reveal itself. After the 5th hole, a par-3 and the course's shortest, you're introduced to a dolgleg, stroke 1 sixth hole where your main challenge will be to avoid the dense shrub, so make sure you get your distances just right. As you get to the 7th, life is by no chance made easier but you still get the bonus of the outstanding views from this elevated tee before you have to focus on how to get around that green almost entirely surrounded by water.
On the back nine, the 12th is the most challenging hole on San Lorenzo, featuring a deep chasm along the left of a very narrow fairway. Holes 13th to 16th also face the ocean with the latter proving to be the most demanding par-3, featuring a whole 180 m carry to a shallow green. Seventeenth is, again, extremely beautiful but still falls short of the beauty that awaits you on the last hole. It is a great finale and one that will remain in your memory as it has an excellence that is renowned worlwide. It is, without a doubt, a course for special occasions, that will provide you with unforgetably beautiful moments. Of course such a unique course had to have unique requirements concerning the booking of your green fees and that is only possible if you are a guest at the 5 star Dona Filipa Hotel nearby or by contacting a selected few like Tee Times who will make the required arrangements to book what will be one of the most special games of golf you will ever play in your life.

San Lorenco ist ein schöner, parkähnlicher Golfplatz mit überwiegend breiten Fairways umgeben von prächtigen Villenanlagen. Eindrucksvoll sind die Löcher 5,6 und 7, bei denen das Meer ins Spiel kommt. Hervorzuheben ist das sehr nette und aufmerksame Personal.

Fantastic experience. Firstly, the number of players in our group decreased from 8 to 4 due to unforseen circumstances. We were due to play on the Saturday but the pro shop had no issue with us moving one of the fourballs to Friday morning to accommodate an extra round. Excellent customer service so big kudos here. Greens rolled well, yellow tee boxes were uneven but given high season it is understandable that they are not in pristine condition. Great run of holes from 6 through to 9 which was a great end on the Friday given we started from the 10th. 17th and 18th are fantastic holes. The design is brilliant, with challenging bunkering putting a premium on accuracy off the tee. I have played every course in the Vale do Lobo, Quinta, Vilamoura area and this is the best, no question. Excellent piri piri chicken as well!

The Golf course was very good, however, the clubhouse was in poor nick toilets and changing rooms tired and smelly

Course was amazing, staff in the pro shop were great. The food after golf was pretty good. The only let down was the fact that they offered a club cleaning service when we finished but then proceeded to only clean half the clubs. We had to find the two other sets and retrieve the clubs from a sink as there were no staff members to be seen. This is not what you would expect at this type of course.

Ein wunderschöner Golfplatz, insbesondere die ersten neun Löcher, von denen einige am Atlantik entlang liegen. Die Fairways sind nicht in einem super Zustand - kein Wunder nach diesem auch in Portugal extrem trockenem Sommer. Das Personal ist nett und zuvorkommend - empfehlenswert.

A golf course that seems to be past its best with tired practice facilities and mediocre dining. Not in the same league as Monte Rei.
The whole setup needs to be modernised. Staff were friendly but this did not offer value for money.

Lovely golf course although 5 hours to play as a two ball far to slow was not able to get any rythmn into the round

Parcours bien dessiné, mais fairway en très mauvais état, pour un golf qui est très cher.
Thomas Abbott

A nice course although given how prestigious it is rated we found that the facilities were slightly sub par. The course however is a wonderful test of golf and would thoroughly recommend it.

Very Expensive !
1.Tokens for driving range 5 Euro other places 3 Euro,Buggies 50 euro ( without GPS) other places 30 Euro.
2 The quality of the course very Good.
3.The greenkeeper must be better to keep quiet when they have players on TEE , green, Hitting stroke.
Nice Lunch.

Lovely course but they did not have enough buggies for players. Lot of unhappy golfers waiting. Some of the staff was not very friendly.
Steve Graham
2019-09-14
Staff friendly and nice clubhouse. Not sure it’s worth paying €139 to play though. Greens are very good however, considering this is the start of the season, the fairways seemed a little bare and the grass on the fairways was a mix of coarse and finer.
Carol Lane

Frustrating that have to pay for water when you ‘ve paid for buggy - and all other courses provide. Front desk for golf pleasant but bar service slow. Beautiful course - tough though!

Not as good as I was expecting . It was ok but the club house is very dated . That said the staff and service was first class as was the food, very nice . A tough course for sure especially when the wind blows . Which it did . The course condition was good too .

The course layout is very nice but, the course conditions did not live up to their expectation. Further were several flights hold up due to a very slow playing flight

The golf course are in bad conditions. It really needs a total makeover, including fairways, buggy lanes, flags, tees - absolutely everything needs to be improved.
Peter S Watson

Great course design but not well maintained. Poor value for money. San Lorenzo needs a lot of work to bring it up to the standard of other courses in the region.

Very nice design of the course but not maintained at a very high standard. Greens are good but fairways not exceptional...
Stuart young
2019-04-20
Pace of play very slow with lots of inexperienced golfers staying at the hotel and playing the course which is difficult. We try and avoid 5 hour rounds and this was well over that so we will be excluding this course on our next visit which is a shame as it's a lovely course

Had not played here for about 10 years and enjoyed our 2 rounds there . Staff in clubhouse were brilliant .
The course compared with others we have played over the winter was in ok condition . The fairways around the lake 8th 17th and 18th were in particularly very very poor condition

Good golf course.
A little disappointed with the greens, a lot of spike marks and unrepaired pitch marks. Golf buggy at 50 euros is far too expensive.

Very good challenge, but not as well kept or presented as Quinta. Slow!! This is not an easy course for high handicap golfers.
Jeff Anderson
2018-10-13
We played San Lorenzo last week, we were a two ball as our partners dropped out at the last minute. As always at San Lorenzo the round took 5 hours, waiting on every shot, sometimes 3 groups on one hole. The rangers on this course are ineffective - just drive about watching but not seemingly doing much to speed up play. Course not in bad condition, greens looked a bit scruffy but actually played quite well. Its always expensive and over priced but given the course was packed i guess they justify the price. Many years ago you use to be able to play golf to be allowed on all of the Quinta courses - now you just need to turn up with the cash.

The Greens were half sanded and the course doesn’t worth the price
It’s not the same quality as Laranjal Quinta do Lago or Vale do Lobo

I have been looking forward to playing San Lorenzo for a number of years as it is one of the few courses in the area I have not played. However I did leave a little disappointed, whilst the course layout was excellent, the conditioning and set up was a little tired and shabby compared to other courses in the Q d L area. Also the customer service at the pro shop/clubhouse was poor compared to other facilities.
Mrs Mary Hackett
2018-05-04
The 6 players were very disappointed with this course the greens were sanded the course looked shabby no ice with buggy no water no tees no worth the price that was paid and would recommend to our friends in Ireland

Check in good, course very nice, however compared to Monte Rai it was poor. Nothing included in the cost..., no strokesaver, no logo pencil, no free fruit, tees or pitch mark repairers and no personal service. For the cost I expected better.

Course was not in as good condition as we remember it in the past.
Green fees are expensive so was expecting course to be in better shape but maybe as it was due to
a lot of rounds being played at this time of year.

Andrew Cockerill

The course was in poor condition unfortunately. It is a great layout but the whole place looks very 'tired' and is getting by on its history/reputation. The welcome in the pro shop was not particularly friendly. The buggy master and his team were very friendly and helpful though.

Beautiful golf course and great facilities. Buggy price extortionate compared to Villamoura. 45 euro no tees no water no ice. 20 euro in villamoura tees and ice provided
Karen Croft
2016-06-29
Only booked San Lorenzo through teetimes.pt as our hotel was able to book the other courses that we wanted to play.
To an extent, San Lorenzo is trading on its past glory. Staff ok but a tad disinterested at check in. No discount at all for junior players! Course ok, but some holes felt crowded by residential development and we played better courses (eg Faldo, Monte Rei). However, San Lorenzo's unique position with several holes alongside the sea means people will still come to play.
Dawn Smith
2016-06-23
Played this course twice during our break and both times had to wait over an hour to get a buggy. Think it would be better if when booking golf we could book a buggy
Monique Mackay
2016-06-23
very quiet on the course when we got there (around 9 a.m. teetime), which was great as we got around quite quickly. Beautiful course in excellent condition, but very expensive to play (which is probably why it was so quiet).
Maurice Rogers
2016-05-31
Condition of the course was ok but I am not sure it justifies the cost of the green fee. Staff were helpful and arranged for us to start play earlier than scheduled.

We plaid on saturday 31st october. Before the heavy rain. But the course was wet already and exhaustive to walk, puling the trolley! A design and conditions a little bit over rated.
Adrian Thorogood
2015-11-02
Slow but still a great course.
Overall, the Algarve courses are getting overplayed and the quality of the golf experience is suffering as a consequence. They cannot keep charging the amounts they do and not maintain the courses. Something has to be done about the amount of traffic they get, as the tee boxes in particular are just not coping with the amount of usage. Greens also have so many pitch marks that they are not running true anymore. I don't know if there is a general 'Algarve Golf Course Club' that Tee Times can feed this back to, but I would have thought action needs to be taken soon. We don't play Royal and Ocean courses anymore as they are always too slow to play.

Excellent course. Rained heavily before both rounds but course drained quickly so play was possible. Staff welcoming and friendly

Magnificent rolling fairways and views stretching over the Ria Formosa estuary to Faro Island and the ocean beyond elevates San Lorenzo Golf Course by many as the best in the Algarve. Built in 1988 it has built a formidable reputation and was once ranked No2 in Europe just behind Valderrama - it presently resides at No24 just in front of Onyria Palmares at No26. San Lorenzo is simply is a must play course.
Played mid December and was in great condition - winter golf doesn't get any finer than this and great value too.
*Undulated - Gentle rolling fairways
*Dogleg - Several on the front 9
*Tree Lined - With Pines
*Exposed - On the holes adjacent to the coastline
*Buggy Recommended - If Essential
*Water hazards - On both 9's, clearly seen
*Parkland - Overall, with links feel to middle of the front 9
*Signature Hole - 18th
*Comments - Trully Championship Course w/ Great Scenery . Special ocasions
