The golf courses listed below are either linked to one of our hotels or are in the immediate area. However, there are so many more courses that, if you have a favourite, we would be happy to pre book tee times for you as part of our Algarve golf holidays service. As well known courses they do, naturally, have all the facilities you would expect from Algarve golf holidays but if you require more information please let us know.

Within the Quinta do Lago Estate

Quinta do Lago North and South Courses, San Lorenzo course and Pinheiros Altos, the latter is mostly for members but sometimes we can arrange tee times here as part of your Algarve golf holidays. These are the nearest to Quinta do Lago hotel and Le Meridien Dona Felipa.

Quinta do Lago North On your Algarve golf holiday, why not visit this well known 18-hole course that plays to Par 72, 6205 metre length? It requires power and accuracy to play the par 5 holes and other holes need precise tee shots to keep your score low.  Designed by William Mitchell and Rocky Roquemore the course is an anti-clockwise loop.

Quinta do Lago South Also designed by William Mitchell,the South course is Par 72 and 6488 metres.  Again an anti-clockwise course and would suit the long hitter and players of all standards on their Algarve golf holidays.

San Lorenzo

Owned by Le Meridien Don Felipa this course has been regularly voted as one of the best in Europe and is therefore a must-visit on Algarve golf holidays. Amid pine trees and lakes, the 18 hole, Par 72 has stunning scenery which gets better between the 5th and 8th when it overlooks the lovely beaches.  A challenging course that was designed by Joseph Lee which will have you using all your clubs.

Vale do Lobo

Vale do Lobo has two challenging golf courses for you to play on your Algarve golf holidays, the Royal and the Ocean, which have previously hosted the European PGA Tour event and the Portuguese Open. These are the closest to Le Meridien Dona Felipa, apart from their own San Lorenzo course.

Royal Golf Course  Based on a drawing made by Sir Henry Cotton, the course design was completed by Rocky Roquemore and plays to Par 72. Beautifully located with pine trees, wild flowers and lakes plus the dramatic cliff edge, this 18 hole, 6059 metre course will suit golfers of all levels on their Algarve golf holidays.

Ocean Golf course Another 18 holes, but playing to Par 73, this was designed by Sir Henry Cotton as two nine holes originally which were merged in 1995.  With its undulating fairways and views of the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve and the Atlantic, shaping your shots is the requirement here

Vilamoura area

There are five Oceanico courses here: Oceanico Old Course; Victoira; Millennium; Laguna and Pinhal – all are 18 holes, all Par 72 except the Old Course which is Par 73, and all designed by international names.  For more details about Algarve golf holidays here do contact us. These are nearest courses to The Lake Resort

Pine Cliffs is part of the Sheraton Algarve. This is a compact 9 hole course with the well known Devil’s Parlour, a challenging Par 3 crossing the stunning red cliffs. This course is in a beautiful location and has fabulous views of the ocean and requires a precise game.  There is a very good academy here too, perfect for beginners wanting to take Algarve golf holidays. Other courses near the Sheraton are located in the Vilamoura or Albufeira areas.

Carvoeiro area

Quinta do Gramacho and Vale de Pinta Courses, these are the nearest courses to Vila Vita Parc hotel about 25 minutes away, whilst Herdade do Salgados and the Penina Championship courses are about 35 minutes away.

Vale da Pinta Near Carvoeiro, Vale da Pinta is a championship course that can be played by experienced or beginners alike on their Algarve golf holidays, as there are 5 tees for each hole. An 18 hole sister course to the 9 hole Quinta do Gramacho, it was designed by Ronald Fream with wide deep greens and 58 bunkers. It plays to Par 71 (5.861 metres).
