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.

This was my first round ever at the Old course, played in a bit of rain, but regardless the course being wet it held up very well, greens remained firm enough for good roll. Past the first three or four holes, which appeared to me a bit dull as they look very similar, the course gains interest with a good par 5 (6th) and a very interesting long par 3 (6th) Great finish with a tough back to back 16th and 17th and an easy feel good hole on 18th. Great Experience and worth another visit with firmer conditions,

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.

Beautiful course, got forced to play with a single which was annoying, luckily he was nice.
darren fuller
2019-07-10
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 Plummer

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

One of the best. In super conditions. Plaid fast

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.

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 Smith
2019-03-04
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.

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.

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.

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.

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 Gau
2017-03-20
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.

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.

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.

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.

David Moran

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.

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.

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.

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.

James Wood
2018-02-26
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.

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.

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.

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.

Anthony Coombs
2017-05-21
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.

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.

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.

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)

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!
