Vilamoura Old Course
The Old Course - the name saying it all. Situated in the heart of the Vilamoura seaside resort a mere 20-minute drive from Faro airport, this Frank Pennink designed parkland style layout is one of the oldest in the region and renowned all over the golfing world. Often described as the Grande Dame of Algarve courses, it meanders throughout impressive pinetrees - the principal hazard - over gently undulating natural terrain.|In addition to raising the Vilamoura Old Course to new heights of quality, an attractive new clubhouse and adjacent putting green were also built at that time. As with all Vilamoura courses, environmental protection practices are strictly adhered to by means of detailed management systems in line with guidelines established by ISO 14001 standards, Green Globe and Committed to Green programmes.

Danny Verheyden2019-12-24
Course in very good condition! Nice and friendly people.
And a very good lunch!
Dominik L. Zuhorn 2019-12-22
The Vilamoura Old Course is beautifull and very good maintained, tees and greens are in excellent condition. This Course is one of our favorit on the Algarve. We enjoyed it very well today!
Neil Davies2019-12-04
Fabulous condition and great pro shop ladies and caddie staff. Course was the best I have seen it in a lot of years. Greens were superb. It oozes atmospheric and a certain class
Mr Barnes2019-11-29
Easily the best course in the entire Tee Times rotation. Wish we could play it more often.
Superb condition, great staff and service, and excellent challenging course. Old Course is miles above the normal courses we play.....KB
Mark Rattigan2019-10-04
Fantastic best in Portugal
Vincent2019-10-04
If You like golf, this is the place to be. Really nice lanes. Old trees. Perfect fairways And no easy puts. Enjoy but do not get angry.
Andrew Melvin2019-09-29
Fantastic course. Looks stunning and in great condition.
Steve Wilson2019-09-23
VERY slow round, but course in good shape
Richard Magee2019-09-03
What an excellent course!! Third time here and already looking forward to my next visit. The greens were a little slow if I were to be slightly picky, but the hospitality, course conditions and quietness of the course more than made up for it.
andrew bettley2019-07-15
Beautiful course, got forced to play with a single which was annoying, luckily he was nice.
darren fuller2019-07-10
Fantastic course. Beautiful scenery as you go round.
A challenging layout as expected. You need to hit a straight ball off the Tee but if you do you can score well.
Buggy €25 but well worth it on a hot sunny day.
If you are a 2 ball you will get paired with another 2 ball more than likely but we had a nice guest with us.
Overall it’s a bucket list course and well worth the money, thoroughly enjoyable you just need to use course management skills to score well
Clive Plummer2019-06-25
Really enjoyed playing this course again. In good condition with fast greens and some difficult borrows to read. A good contrast of holes through tree lined fairways, with sweeps and undulations calling for good course management
Franco Piergiovanni2019-06-21
One of the best. In super conditions. Plaid fast
PÃ¥l Henriksen2019-06-17
What can I say, it is rumored that this is the nicest course. I tend to agree, yes it is narrow and it is hard, but if you have found your balance, well then you should be alright. One minster hole that test your full ability. I loved it. Ppl meeting you at the door gives you the feeling of Monte rei, where the tend your clubs and strap them on buggy. After you are done they meet you again and asks if you want them to wash your club. They look nicer now than when I bought them hehe. Loved the course loved the atmosphere. Ecstatic. I sat down while they tended my golf clubs, enjoyed a large beer, I asked the barman If I should return the glass. The reply: don't bother, it's my job! With a wonderful smile on his face. Thank you Portugal with a lovely stay, and ofc the professionalism of teetimes.pt is extreme. Use them wisely, whenever you can. They do the works, and adds to the experience of a very good time.
Best regards
Paal Henriksen.
Janice McDonald2019-06-17
Beautiful day, but a little bit disappointed with the condition of some of the fairways, they have deteriorated since our last visit
Franco Di Fonzo2019-06-12
The best.
Tony Coombs2019-05-17
The Old Course is still as challenging, beautiful and rewarding as ever. The tee one only start ensures a consistent pace. I have always thought of this as a mini Augusta and enjoyed e v e y round even though my score has not always been the best. You only s ore if your are long and s straight but short and straight can score as well. The course is always in very good condition so no excuses from that point. I will always include this course when playing in this area.
Colin Smith2019-03-04
Playe the course many times. Condition as good as its ever been, if not better. A credit to Dom Pedro. My only negative comment would be that some of thr buggy paths really need repairing, but this does not detract from the overall condition. 19th is a pleasant place to enjoy after golf lunch.
Sinead Egan2019-02-25
Loved it. Staff Very helpful . Play a bit slow but course was busy.
Martin Punch2019-02-11
From arrival to departure everything was top class.
We (party of 8) hire clubs & buggies with ease.
Clubhouse Staff are very friendly and the course in great condition.
We had a rain shower before we played and the pathways near tee boxes were very slippery
We got a great deal from tee times (Hotel & Golf) for playing at this time of the year, I feel the rates in peak season for golf in vilamoura are expensive and it is best to go outside vilamoura for better value.
Overall 8 satisfied Golfers who will be back again.
Colin Dick2019-01-17
Everything thing about this course and set up has the wow factor. From when you first arrive till you leave. You will not be disappointed.
Andy Robinson2019-01-13
Vilamoura Old Course has got to be one of the best courses on the Algarve. The condition of the course was really good with the greens running at about 12 on the stimpmeter!
The bar and restaurant staff were friendly and helpful and the cost of drinks after the round were more than reasonable.
The only criticism I would have is the pace of play !!! We were 4 .5 hours for the round and the marshalling of the course was non - existan. The pace of play was the only issue that spoiled a very enjoyable experience.
Dr Chris Ashton2018-12-21
Very friendly staff and very accommodating. Allowed us to tee off a little earlier which was nice. Very peaceful round in great surroundings. Greens were nice. Lovely cold beer on veranda after a nice round on a warm day in Dec. Perfect!
Derek Hough2018-10-01
Another's brilliant course
Gary Wills2018-09-23
Perfect experience. Expensive but worth every penny.
Cheryl Myles2018-09-20
This is my favourite course in the area. From check in to finish you feel looked after. The pro shop staff seem really proud of its heritage and reputation and so they should be. A good test of golf, and the fairways and greens were in immaculate condition. I never tire of playing here. Yes it is expensive, but worth it.
Gary N Townley2018-08-27
Brilliant course friendly staff and we played with another two ball which was great fun. Also the pre booking was brilliant print off what you have ordered walk up to the desk and you are away. Vera thank you so much.
SILVIO MAZZOCCHI2018-08-23
Fantastic. Beautiful course in excellent condition. Very friendly and efficient staff
Robert Wheeler2018-08-10
Course in great condition even for low season. Service in and around the clubhouse excellent. Shane the quality of golf did not match!
David Atherton2018-08-10
Perfect. Course in superb condition. An absolute pleasure to play. A 'must play' if coming to Vilamoura.
John Moule2018-07-02
Beautiful course, very friendly and helpful staff. 10/10, great day.
Mel Ross 2018-06-20
Excellent course.....always a pleasure to play....should always be on everyone's to play list!
Craig Johnstone2018-05-23
This course would be more enjoyable the second time round as you will know where to hit the ball on the blind holes
Paul Beard2018-05-16
Always a pleasure to play here
Philip Halpenny 2018-05-15
Superb, as always. One of the best in the Algarve.
Ian Green 2018-05-14
The course and facilities are excellent, and the course is always in superb condition.
Helen White2018-03-28
An absolutely beautiful course, immaculately kept and very peaceful. It is easy to get round if I out don’t have a buggy, although we did had a buggy that was only €30 (Easter offer). It had a very relaxed and peaceful atmosphere, it is a traditional golf course unlike some others in Vilamoura that have all the gimmicky holes that attract the masses, this was not overcrowded and we didn’t feel rushed or that play was too slow. Also this is the only course we played where I actually saw and talked to some other lady golfers! They had a beautiful veranda where we had lunch, and staff were attentive and friendly. Our absolute favourite that we will definately return to.
Christian Gau2017-03-20
The most appealing course with lots of possibilities to get caught in trees right and left.Play it from white and you have a decent challenge that always remains a lot of fun. I don´t remember having seen a range though.
Swanson2016-10-05
It was as expected. An excellent course beautifully laid out and in good condition.
David Whalley2020-11-26

Derek Hough2019-10-06

Maurice Rogers2019-09-23
Not worth the money. Condition of the course was poor and the pace of play woefully slow. I won’t be rushing back.
nikki moss2019-09-20
Fabulous course and well worth a visit. Challenging to all levels. Only disappointment was to buy balls for the range and then get up there to be told it was closing at 1pm!
Phil Clements2019-09-18

Paul Mustoe 2019-08-06
Very good and relaxed check in. Lovely Clubhouse overlooking putting green first tee and driving range which was good quality. Excellent full breakfast although when asked if I wanted orange juice and coffee did assume that was included (the juice was 6 Euros a glass!). Teed off early as quiet and starter even let us go ahead of a 4 ball who were ready on the tee as we were a 2 (good management). Course in excellent condition generally and some lovely holes however towards the end the course felt a little tired which was emphasised by the buggy paths which were great for most of the round and then all of a sudden became rocky dirt tracks. A shame as of course the last few holes tends to be what people remember! Would certainly recommend this though.
James Love2019-07-13
Course was in excellent condition. Pace of play was slow.
Hasan Alami2019-07-11
Friendly staff. Course in very good shape
Denis Ovens2019-07-08
Fabulous
Christopher Drew2019-07-05
Good course, but the paths/buggy tracks need attention, very tatty in places.
Bare areas on fairways need roping off and treated as Ground under repair,otherwise it will only get worse.
Christopher Drew2019-07-03
Wonderful day, not crowded at all, staff very warming, fairways a little bare in places and repairs have been carried out recently.
Denis Ovens2019-07-02
Fantastic course
Fiona Reid2019-06-23
Great condition
Terry Jackson2019-06-23
Good course, well kept with good greens.
John Holt2019-06-22
This has always been my favourite course and is both demanding and fairly short. There are some classic holes here.
Stewart J Gallacher 2019-06-19
Course was excellent. Buggy hire was €45 euros which was far too expensive. Not happy.

Paul Reynolds2019-05-20
Fantastic place to play golf . Cannot find fault with the Old course . A great course , great service and lovely place . First class. If the club house stayed opened a bit longer it would have been a 10
helen pettitt2019-05-12
Our favourite course but this time was very slow. Huge groups going out that just got slower and slower
Course and staff still fantastic
Timo Lehto2019-05-08
The Old course was an experience. The course was in excellent shape and staff was friedly and in good humor.
The only problem was the narrow fairways which caused several fore shouts from us and the other players.
Also the normal rate greenfee price was high.
Pat Connellan2019-05-07
Tough course, a lot of trees to negociate
Jamie Hughes2019-05-01
ok fairways poor
Michael O'Neill 2019-04-29
For the price we were paying, we were very disappointed with the condition of the course especially on the front 9. We also played very early in the morning, teeing off at 8.00am and it was very frustrating to find bunkers that had clearly not being raked.
Jim Liddy2019-04-28
Beautiful course, pity about the condition of the first few fairways but excellent experience
David Moran2019-04-24
Course was in poor visible condition outside the fairways but the Fairways and greens where very good and we really enjoyed playing the course.
Only real complaint was it took nearly 5 hours to play as 2 of the group in front never picked up there ball when out of the hole and must have taken 10 shots on most holes. We felt sorry for the elderly couple playing with the 2 gents as the couple where waiting on every green for them to hole out.
Graeme Marr2019-04-24
absolutely fantastic experience with excellent courses.
John Coates2019-04-24
It was the fifth time in 10 years that I have played the Old Course and it was without doubt in the poorest condition I have known it. The fairways on the first six holes were very poor and patchy as though they had been infected. The greens were first class though.
Darryl Williamson2019-04-24
Superb course requiring accuracy rather than distance, a very good challenge
Segers eric2019-04-24
Very well groomed course, some trees make approach to greens unfair
Brian Filler2019-04-20
The course was in nice condition however the speed of play was extremely slow.
Eoghan Lenihan2019-04-18
Very good. Lot more expensive than the previous 9 years but good experience all the same
David Driffill2019-04-15
Stunning course, good challenge.
Shane Quigley2019-04-11
It’s just a treat to play every year, not a week hole on it.
Svein Tonna 2019-04-10

Fredrik Sorebo2019-01-26
Started 8.50 on a Saturday. Greens super 9/10. Fairways unmowed, a lot of dew 5/10. Gramacho fairways much better, as a comparison.
Course beautiful with a lot of trees
Anne2019-01-07
Very Nice course
Cheng Li Seng2019-01-07
Wonderful golf course. Challenging game with high treelines along the fairways and highly ''Bunker-protected'' greens. Course management is a must. Consider walking to enjoy the course.

Paul Mullen2018-11-29

We were last off in a 4 ball and one of the ladies was very very slow player
Ulrich Fehlmann2018-11-17

Philip Anderson2018-11-15
All our needs were taken care off in a very helpful and professional manner.
Arve Bekkevar2018-11-15
Very nice person in the reception, but they did not allow my friend to enter the course in jogging-shoes.
Another friend and me, have golf-shoes without spikes. What is the difference? Only €20 for rental-shoes.
John Deveney2018-11-15
Course as good as ever, well presented, paths could do with some work.
Prepaid buggies would be a plus.
Craig Ferreira2018-11-14
Great course, great service, can’t wait to play it again.

Petrusch Juergen2018-11-11
simply great but some players play too slow
Max De Groot2018-10-24
Wonderful classic golf course . Well maintained, requires tactical course management rather than long drives. Personel and greenkeepers all contribute to a great golfing experience. Avoiding the pine trees is an art in itself????
NEIL DUGGAN2018-10-20
Great condition just too slow getting around with very slow novice golfers holding people up with no care for anyone else .
Philippe Sauvain2018-10-17
Très bien, à part une modification de 10 minutes tous les parcours (5) réservés étaient enregistrés. Excellente performance. Nous recommandons Teetimes,
Gary Duke2018-10-16
Fabulous course in very good order throughout. Don Pedro golf are really increasing green fees for their five courses around Vilamoura, if this keeps up I’m unlikely to play them next year, better deals are available along the Algarve
Marcus Williamson2018-10-12
Not my favourite course but was in excellent condition.Overall experience was great
George McDonald2018-10-11
Great days golf. Always a challenge. Course a little worn in places.
Didier Becholey2018-10-07
Le parcours est magnifique mais trop cher par rapport à ce que l’in trouve en Suisse.
Particulièrement le fait de ne pas pouvoir s’échauffer au practice qui était fermer parce que les jardiniers devaient tondre, et les greens très marqués en raison du nombre de personnes sur le parcours. A ce prix, j’attend la perfection......
Ian Molyneux2018-09-29
Always a good experience playing here.
Facilities not as good as you would expect from a course of this stature.

Alan Doodson2018-09-07
The course is in good condition and plays well for an average handicap golfer. The price of golf and especially a buggy (€40) is too high.
Andrew Sworowski2018-09-06
We always look forward to playing the 'Old Course' and were not disappointed. It was a good day weather wise and we both played the course well. The hospitality was very good which added to the experience.
My only criticism would be that the course was looking a little tired in places and not to the high standard on the previous occasions we have been there.

Peter Lovenholm2018-05-07
It's a fun course I've played 3 times before, this year quite few greens were under "construction" and some fairways had spots with now grass on them. Max. 150 metres on the driving range.

Joined up with 2 good golfers and had a good day. We still felt the marshalling could have been better as a slow group had lost holes.
Peter Byron2018-04-11
Lovely course in great condition. Quite a lot of maintenance going on with hollow tining to a couple of greens, pace of play was good, but it was quiet.

The Old Course was in great condition this year. Glad to see the locker room has been extended.- one of our favourites.
Ralf Wutke2018-03-19
An experience. Very friendly staff. Wonderful place, very varied, excellent condition. It can be very tiring to walk, buggy is recommended.
Andrew Flynn2018-03-11
Nice course with character, staff really helpful
Thomas Wicker2018-03-05
Excellent course, high trees and fair, your ball will drop out of the trees again , perfect greens and fairways
Colin Smith2018-03-02
As good as it has always been!!
James Wood2018-02-26
The best of the courses in Vilamoura in my opinion, and customer service is exceptional. The only down side to the Old Course was the fact the range is undergoing extensive improvements (Feb 2018)so when we visited you couldn't hit anything past 150, so no option to practice with driver etc but this will improve the facilities in the long run, the customer service here is a notch above Millennium/Laguna/Pinhal with a courtesy pick up from car park/s to clubhouse etc, clubs cleaned post round, free ice and water and a little better service in the bar / restaurant, which looks over the practice green and course.
Val Smith 2018-02-03
Superb course, loved it, great condition, best course we played all week.
Ron Harris2018-01-23
Fantastic. The staff were very helpful and the corse was in great condition. I wish my Golf had been as good
Zeljko Lovkovic2018-01-16
Best of all Dom Pedro for me, very nice course, true fast greens and green thick fairways. A real joy! Yes for me much better than Victoria which is somehow without spirit and very yellow due to lack of rain in last two month and lack of trees around.
Markus Gutzler2018-01-08
Very nice course, very good conditions, had a wonderful day there. Because we were almost alone on the course. Staff is also very friendly there.
Allan Andersen2018-01-07
Old Course is a must for all golfers visiting Vilamoura!
Great staff & Course is always in good conditions.
Dominik L. Zuhorn 2018-01-04
Ein wunderschöner Platz, der in sich in einem sehr guten Zustand befand!

William Forrest2017-12-19
Superb as always. May be the oldest in area but still one of the best
Regina Paetzke2017-11-23
My favourite course, sooo many trees ?
Tilman2017-11-15
One of the finest courses I‘ve ever played! Just stunning, views are beautiful, course conditions are Perfect. Unfortunately the Marshall better should learn his job.
John Deveney2017-11-14
Course and staff as good as ever, new owners are tidying up some areas of neglect.
Rainer Albath2017-11-13
Beautiful course... condition very Good!
Wilson Pitt 2017-11-11
Fabulous first course we book every time we come to the Algarve
David Evans 2017-10-31
Fantastice golf course, my favourite - a good challenge and very well presented. The service from the staff in the clubhouse and in and around the course was excellent.
Jan Sklepek2017-10-30
Very nice golf course, top in form, but on Monday very loud greenkeepers machines on all holes.
Marc Luthi2017-10-26
One of the best courses in the Algarve. Very friendly service and will play the course every time I come to the algarve.
best regards, marc
Kevin Maguire2017-10-25
We all agreed that this though not great was the pick of the course we played. Their cart path left alot to be desired.
We enjoyed our weeks golf but as avid golfers we expected the courses to be in a much better presented state. It is no long good enough to just pack em and stack em.
Dan Carter2017-10-24
Sensational course!
Michael Blanche2017-10-17
Excellent course and good service
Bernard McDonnell2017-10-16

No halfway house or course refreshment buggy. Course in good condition.
Elizabeth Halliday2017-08-05
Staff were Brilliant and very welcoming .
James Wood2017-08-04
Excellent course and very helpful staff, the course itself is interesting and in immaculate condition with some memorable feature holes.
Practice facilities were not that good though, you cant use driver and the whole area only covers 200 yds, we found numerous range balls on the holes that run adjacent to the course...that said it is a minor issue, the course is excellent.
We ate in the clubhouse afterwards, service and quality was good.
Chris Knowles2017-07-24
Brilliant as usual.
Course was immaculate and staff as friendly as always.
Danny French2017-07-22
Cheapest buggies at €25. Nice well established course, compact.

Brendan Collins2017-06-27
Very good course in good order with some excellent holes
Josh Pitsillides2017-06-22
Brilliant course, lightning greens and tight fairways. A good experience even for a mid-high handicapper such as myself!
Neil Rodgerson 2017-06-10
Great course. Fairways and greens perfect. Money needs to be spent on buggy infrastructure. Normal rack rate is expensive if you compare with monte rei
Robert Harris2017-06-06
Great condition
Kevin Steele 2017-06-04
always love to play the old course n buggy hire considerably cheaper
John Munn and Hugh Hegan2017-06-04

Peter Lamont2017-05-26
Really great course always a thrill to play.
Frank Corten2017-05-25
Absolutely stunning, even the fairways are better than the greens at my home course.
Craig Frame2017-05-23
The best in Vilamoura by a long way, we should play this one every time we come, better than Victoria
Anthony Coombs2017-05-21
The Old Course was in the very best of condition this year, helped by the fact that we were the first off, so we set the pace of play. Due to the lush grass and the early morning dew, pitched approached shots were very herd to judge correctly. The only area that requires attention was the condition of some of the teeing grounds.
Ray Seager2017-05-20
Great condition, extremely helpful.
Clive Sims2017-05-18
Always a favourite with us but not in as good condition as in the past.
Graham Johnson2017-05-17
Great

very good but a bit overpriced comparing with rest courses
Ian Green 2017-05-15
Another testing course with plenty of challenges, again in fantastic condition, any highly recommended.
Cliff Morgan2017-05-15
Usual hard challenge and course is in excellent condition, especially given the number of visitors!!

Timo Kahila2017-04-19

Robin Seabrook2017-04-17
Old Course very good as usual, enjoyed playing with the Chez Carlis group and also the socialising at ' Chez Carlos ' after golf.
Neal Rothwell2017-04-15
Fantastic organisation by Douglas The Old course is a great challenge for all levels of golfer. Greens were slow uphill but fast downhill !! Back 9 is tough so score well on the front 9. Thankyou Carlos for the complimentary tasty snacks afterwards at the prize giving ceremony in Chez Carlos excellent restaurant. Great days great memories. ????
Simon Till2017-04-13
Fine condition and one of our favourites
Lenni Vainio2017-04-09

Our second visit to the Old Course and it was just as lovely as we remember. Good condition and a warm welcome.
? Tim Amor2017-03-26
Course very, very good. Much better condition since we last played it. Expensive but worth it.
Defranoux Daniel2017-03-16
The most beautiful of those we have done. Nothing to say that bravo.
Vilma Chapman2017-03-08
Our favourite course, so interesting, very pretty but also challenging
Michal Hatle2017-02-27
beuautiful course as always but somewhat degraded by processionary moth catepillars causing severe skin allergies to several team members. No warning given at the reception/hotel/agency which we consider quite irresponsible
Damian Howe2017-02-20
This is a superb course but on the day we had some heavy showers which affected the scores but they did not dampen our spirit. Everything about this course is great.
George Rutherford2017-02-17
The best course we played super condition
Ian Fisher 2017-02-07
Superb courses, excellent all round service
Paul Dickinson2017-02-02
Excellent course, but disappointing the bar and restaurant were closed
Thomas whiteside2017-01-27
First class the bar was under decoration on my visit . So delighted that they were offering free drinks and sandwiches on the course. A much appreciated gesture. The course was super you had to use every club in your bag so the big hitter does not always win.
Allan Andersen 2017-01-09
Great course / very friendly staff
Restaurant closed w/o upfront communication
Nico Kraszkiewicz2016-11-24
outstanding course, pretty narrow, but challenging!
John Deveney2016-11-18
Always our favourite, pathways in need of some work.
Not averse to carrying my own bag but on our second visit nobody to meet us on arrival, first time this has ever happened.
Hope this is not a sign of things to come now Oceanico have sold out, otherwise staff excellent.
Bill Murphy2016-11-11
Walked off in the heavy rain. Didn't get to enjoy it.
margaret platt2016-11-08
Nice golf course
Dave Ryan2016-10-29
Tough course more suited for really good golfers. Beautiful course
Ben Jones2016-10-21
Very good course, held up by the group in front and course marshel wasn't much help due to the fact they were members. Overall though a must when in Vilamoura.
Richard Stephens2016-10-10
Had a good time at this course. Good condition.
mike williams2016-10-09

Tom Keenan2016-09-13
The Old Course is just a great classic golf course and the staff are very welcoming.
John Graham2016-09-12
I have played the old course for many years now along with my friends I have also promoted this course , however I have felt over the last 2 years the greens are suffering and this year I thought they were patchy and very slow .
James Sweeney2016-09-06
A great challenge ????
David McCrone2016-08-20
Excellent
Jon Burrows2016-08-08
Could have done with the Marshall being more proactive as several groups got stuck behind a four ball and play was unnecessarily slow. Fantastic course.
Miguel de Paiva Couceiro2016-07-18
Great course, I started playing golf so that I could play at the Old Course; in fact we have owned a house on the 17th fairway for almost 40 years! Very nice staff all over. Marco is most helpful and very kind.
christine rostron2016-07-12
good course
Franco Di Fonzo 2016-07-06
Very difficolt course with all the trees on the side. Irons will help you in many occasions
Kevin Walker2016-07-06
Great course, well maintained and challenging for an 18 handicapper since it is lined with Cedar Tree'sthat make the course quite tight. Not much water to avoid but still challenging. Moves through the gentle hills making good use of the terrain. Greens and fairways in very good condition. Buggy and club rental team extremely helpful.
Darren Howlett2016-06-30
fantastic course, loved by all 8 of us. Will always be on our Algarve rota.

An excellent course, well managed with a good balance of easy and difficult holes.
david shannon2016-06-21
Wonderful, condition of tees, fairways and greens superb, almost up there with Valderamma.
Steve williams2016-06-20
Fantastic golf course, beautifully maintained, plus golf buggies were 20 euros, which was a welcome surprise
Kristiane Peuten 2016-06-19
is was very positive that a Marshal controls a good fast play - everything was o.k.
Phil Baines2016-06-17
Old Course is still very good; although the clubhouse facilities are now a little tired.
Steve White 2016-06-07

Excellent, well maintained a nice poeple. At arrival it was raining and cold. They offered right away a voucher valid for one year in case that we do not want to play. Very kind! The sun came out and we had a great day!
Cliff Morgan2016-05-16
Another excellent 18 holes on my favourite course in the Algarve, in great condition despite the rain beforehand.
Mark Deverell2016-05-03
It's the Old Course, so still the best laid out and most attractive course in the area. Greens were a bit woolly though
John Bennett2016-04-22
In poor condition compared to previous years.Marshalling very poor
Paul Whittaker2016-04-08
enjoyed the course, a bit scruffy in places, always an enjoyable day

A wonderful experience. This course really has class and was a delight to play.
Fiedler, Manfred2016-01-31
Sehr gut
Clive Sims2015-12-23
The Old course is an excellent course but I do not feel it is in the normal perfect condition. The Greens are not as good as normal.
We were disappointed at the Marshalling. The course was quiet but a very slow 4 ball were allowed to hold up 2 balls although they had many clear holes in front of them.
However overall we enjoyed it and love the course.
Torben iversholt2015-12-12
Very crowdy the day we played. Very difficult greens, but still a great course
David Lyng2015-12-10
Excellent service and friendly staff. Course as always in great condition and very enjoyable.

Wunderschöner Platz. Unser ''Lieblingsplatz'' in dieser Gegend
olga2015-11-13
We had a voucher because we couldn't play 1st of november. We plaid monday 2nd november and the course drained so well we didn't noticed a problem of water! Very nice design. And very nice people at the desk and restaurant
Clive Sims2015-11-10
It was not in as good a condition as normal, the greens were disappointing.
Adrian Thorogood 2015-11-02
Very slow round indeed. Finished 18th in pitch black.

Excelent

Traditional Portuguese golf course. Well run.
ian sanderson2015-10-26
fantastic
Paul Bennett2015-10-26
Beautiful! Played here on my birthday and won with 38pts.
Doug Montgomery 2015-10-23
The tee booking they had on their computer was for only 1 tee time not the two we had booked - however they sorted it out without fuss and we set off as planned.
Gary Attewell2015-10-18
Brilliant tree lined course
Plot yourself around for a good score
Chez Carlos Golf Society2012-09-17
Hot on the heels of the success of the Summer event at Quinta Do Lago we returned back to the Old Course in Vilamoura - a favourite of many. There is a couple of weeks remaining before high season resumes and the cheaper rates disappear. Consequently we managed to raise an ensemble of 18 players for an Individual Stableford competition beneath blue skies and sunshine.
Ideal conditions once again and some great scores many of which were 30+ points. Special note must go to Chez Carlos member Derek Hughes who commented on his 45pts as being ‘the 3rd best round he has played.’ I think it was a day when it all went right for him and a hearty congratulation; occasionally they do happen. The Society will be reducing his handicap accordingly as it will be to Dean Chambers & Rob Heap.
1st: Derek Hughes (h/cap 11): 45pts
2nd: Dean Chambers (h/cap 15): 39pts (b/6: 17pts)
3rd: Rob Heap (h/cap 13): 39pts (b/6: 14pts)
Nearest The Pin
4th : Paul Beevers
15th : Dave Walshe
Chez Carlos Golf Society2011-12-22
A return back to the Old Course is always a treat. Dry and mild weather continues here in the Algarve and whilst the course was surprisingly wet in places as we have had very little rain it was virtually void of golfers making once again for 'millionaires' golf. Very little roll on the ball indeed if any played the course longer than usual complimented by immaculate greens especially when you consider we are in winter and a week away from Christmas!
Tecnicals
*Undulated - Rolling fairways and minor steep slopes
*Dogleg - Several mainly on the back 9
