Santo Antonio Golf
Golf St Antonio , ex Parque da Floresta , is situated near the fishing village of Salema, near Sagres - one of the most important places in Portuguese and European history - and close to the Costa Vicentina nature reserve.|A hilly course, with sharply sloping fairways, several blind shots, and greens on hill tops, creating a strange but very pleasant effect, perfectly integrated into the landscape. As for playing the course, we feel that it becomes too tired sometimes unappealing to golfers who are not so young.

Friendly service. Greens excellent. A few bare patches on fairways. Would go back. A few blind holes that would be better 2nd time round. On the whole very enjoyable and I would go back.

4-day package was great value for money and very enjoyable. Course was great - interesting and challenging holes. Pace of play was good but would recommend a buggy as there were a few elevated tees and greens which also gave food for thought on club choice!

Okay, great views, but quality of course not brilliant. Again much better value in Vilamoura and Majorca.

This was our 2nd visit to Santo Antonio . We were greeted by helpful and friendly staff and the course was in good condition but there were still a couple of quirky holes which I am not fond of.although I still enjoyed my round (even though I played rubbish). I would recommend this course as great value for money.

Having played this course now on a number of occasions I have always found it surprises me. It's unlike any other course in the Algarve.
The first time I played it, I wanted to turn the car around just driving in. It looks wildly unplayable with its long, dropping fairways but once you are out there you find a course that engages from the first swing. Yes, there are a couple of high tees and blind fairway runs which you will discover require a little course knowledge to play. ( Here the club could help with better mapping at the tees). There are also some lovely little par threes, the fifth being 90 meters of fun, that require thought. This is a real golf course. It takes good course management and rewards risk. And it's fun to play.
The staff are always pleasent,the fantastic clubhouse clean and well staffed. It's a joy to sit,overlooking the 18th green and enjoy the excellent food.
Would it be my first choice on The Algarve? No. But would I come out for a fortnight and not want to play it? Certainly not.

Good challenge greens in great condition, the use of a buggy is essential as the course is very hilly, (mountain goat springs to mind) would play this coarse again

Front 9 isn’t very enjoyable it’s way to hilly with some silly holes. The 9th is the hardest hole I’ve ever played.
However the back 9 has some great holes with beautiful scenery

Santo Antonio golf met our expectations of a highly enjoyable day's golf. The golf staffing seems to have been cut back a little with nobody manning the starters box to inform on flag positions, etc. The staff in the spike bar were very pleasant and efficient.

St Antonio (formerly Florista) is a really beautiful course. It's a great challenge for medium handicapped players but rather too difficult for lowly players such as myself (handicap 23). Nevertheless, it's a pleasure to play there and we'll definitely be back next year.

It is a hard golf course, especially for someone out of The Netherlands. (Really flat courses there) Due to heavy rainfall the week before our visit, the course was really soft and balls got plugged and stayed at these slopes. Difficult to recover standing below or above your ball all the time. In the end thanks to sollid putting I made an 83 and was happy with this result. Overall the views are stunning from time to time and the shop and shop staff was really kind. The clubhouse needs some work, dark and sober. The terrace is ok, but was cold in Februari. For this course I would not take the drive all the way to the west again. Well maybe, when the greenfee offer is really good again. Yes I am Dutch. ;)

Hired out buggies but had to walk most of it because we weren’t allowed on 8 of the fairways with the buggies !
Would need to be very fit to climb up and down all the hills.
Ranger was a real jobs worth .
Extremely windy
Paths are very steep and would be dangerous in the wet
Seemed like a club that didn’t really want visitors

Played the course same time last year and found this year it played a bit better for knowing the layout. A nice welcome at the clubhouse and pro helped with a couple of things. We had 2 in buggies, 4 with electric trolleys and 1 with a pull trolley. It is very hard going with the pull trolley !!
Best advice is book buggies before you visit as they only had a couple available for our group with a 1pm tee.
All aspects of course maintenance were good, a couple of the greens played at different pace to the others but that’s to be expected with the different terrain.
Nice balcony to relax after the round and although a bi5 of a way out from where we were staying worth the drive for first round of five in five days.
Good value for money given the general prices on the Algarve

A quirky course that requires getting used to! When you understand the strategic nature of the course, one can then relax and plot your way around. A buggy certainly helps with the hills, valleys and slopes. A reasonably priced day out for some fun holiday golf. Condition was good in general with greens running nicely. Tees a little worn but it’s summer and hot. Worth a visit as this course is nothing like other Algarve courses.
Christopher Davies
2019-09-12
Everything was very efficient we managed to go off early by an hour teeing off on the 10th which was good for us! I had quite forgotten what a beautiful course it was and what a delight it was to play! Thanks for your help in organizing our golf!
William Townson
2019-09-06
I enjoyed the course, it took a few holes to settle into the hilly vagaries of the lay out. Which slop do I aim for! An interesting day, challenging hole, not always the driver, fairway or rescue club from tees for accuracy. Greens in decent condition but slower than I usually play on. Holiday course, definitely use a buggy or you will be a 5 stone lighter!

A nice and relaxed round of Golf on a difficult course. Not so busy as many other courses in the Algarve. A buggy is highly recommended, even if you have to stay on the path at some holes (not only the Par 3). If you do like only flat courses, this is the wrong place for you.
Kathy pennington
2019-02-20
Thoroughly enjoyed our game on this physically demanding course. It made our home course which is well known for its hills seem quite tame. We walked the course but would recommend a buggy, particularly as distances from green to tee can be quite long. Also, don't forget to pick up a course map as it isn't printed on the scorecard. We will probably play it again when we return next year.

Colin smith
2018-09-30
Enjoyed the course. Fairways were in good condition but the greens had a lot of unrepaired pitch marks. However they were fast and nice to putt on the. Staff on the course were extremely courteous.
My only complaint would be the price of a buggy!!!!!! at 50 euro surely the most expensive on the Algarve. As I only paid 55 euro for the round that came as a bit of a shock

Phil Sharpe
2018-06-25
Very hilly, meaning many above / below feet fairway shots, and most penal even for the straight drives which head down the slopes. Many blind shots as well, with the 6th being painful to know where the ball has actually landed even after a straight tee shot. As you’re not allowed to use your buggies on a number of holes and due to the slopes, you can spend an age wondering where your ball has landed / ended up on the blind shots.
That said, the greens were in very good condition and there are some lovely looking golf holes.

Good experience playing at Santo Antonio as expected. It was helpful for me to be assigned to play along with others when I was alone. There is a little maintenance required on a few parts of the course - e.g. I was surprised to be playing the 18th hole from a temporary tee.
Gary Watts
2018-03-30
What a beautiful golf course, only spoiled by having to keep to the buggy paths, you end up walking further, up and down the hills of the fairways. Although we were in buggies I couldn't recommend this course to anyone who isn't very fit. Can't take anything away from the beauty of this golf course though, It's challenging but good scores are achievable.

2018-03-22
First time I have played this course and it was very challenging but very picturesque. The staff where friendly and helpful. Highly recommend if you want to test your game. I play off 12 and scored 89 so was happy with that. Make sure you have a buggy as it’s hilly.
Klaus Krausen
2018-03-20
Very nice course. Challenging natural profile. Hilly character and some hidden greens make for a demanding but very nice golf day.
Buggy could be useful.
Lovely setting of the club house and patio together with its friedly stuff make this visit perfect.
Improvement suggestion.
It would help guest flights which come for the first time to find complete and more destinct ' Next Tee ' indication.

Because of the topography, you have to play a second time to play it with pleasure. The course has seen better times and urgently needs maintenance so that it doesn't get any further. The brakes of all the buggies we used were in poor condition. Friendly staff and good service at the club restaurant.

Be aware the course closes at 18:45 so make sure you have enough time to complete your round, we had a delay due to rain which meant time was a little tight, although we did get round in time, buggy needed otherwise it's a long walk. Super course, some great challenging holes but plays fair for all standards. Definitely recommend this course.

Course in excellent condition. 9th hole unfair golf hole due to limited landing area for economic shot followed by long 3rd. You booked us in for an extra game on the 16th. We could not play as was too foggy. Voucher given for a round up to end of October 2016
Michael Hardman
2015-10-24
Testing course.was in good condition. Some difficult holes particularly the 9th which is the most difficult hole on the course and is unfair due to slope of the land and narrow landing area for second or third shot followed by long uphill shot to green
