The 6,600 yard layout was formulated by the highly regarded European Golf Design association, and while the course is relatively open from the tee, its large greens are extremely tricky. The enormous putting surfaces are noted for their severe slopes, and are guarded by treacherous bunkers. The raised greens play havoc with club selection, while Alamos is also punctuated with a number of hazardous water features; in fact, the course is formulated around three large lakes, which provide both excitement and aesthetic beauty. Alamos has received much praise in its short time on the Algarve, and is a real pleasure to enjoy during a holiday in this golfing paradise.
I found the course a good challenge ,especially the back nine .
A good course to play - condition of course overall was average at best although greens in decent conditions. A lot of easy and short par 4's.
Thoroughly enjoyed this course, different experience completely from morgado and for me it was better. lots of thinking to get a good score but you certainly needed a buggy as it was hilly. Difficult greens but only added to the enjoyment.
Course was dry and fairways very hard, could do with water.
Not a bad course quite forgiving.
Very challenging course and greens very fast and tricky to read, excellent facilities would play again
Both times we played the course it was relatively quiet so the speed of play was dictated by us and certainly no hold ups. We would all be more than happy to make a return visit.
A very good well maintained course,a true test for the mid to low handicapper,
Very well laid out course
Nice course slow greens
This course very different to Morgado. Looks tired.
Great course with the most testing greens. Fantastic
Fairways tight, plenty of water and bunkers. Greens very good and quite hard to read.
extra points for your travel local pro who came to greet us and fixed us to start ahead of a bigger group. After passing another slow group we cloud play an empty course in our own speed. Very nice greens, large and shaped.
Course was great, greens were immaculate, very fast. Took us around 5.5hours to get round which was pretty slow, but you can't expect much more when the course is full. Couldn't complain about any of it.

Alamos is a fantastic golf course. It is in generally good condition with very good greens. The course layout is great and tests both the low and high handicaps in the group. I'd recommend a cart as it's a long walk! Our favourite of the week (vs Morgado and Salgados)
Very technical course .course was overbooked as took over 4 hours to play waiting for long periods .also bus didn’t turn up to take us to the course
First few holes were too difficult. Blind shots to sloping fairways. Greens in good condition but very difficult. Preferred the holes on the flat. Staff very friendly and helpful. No problem booking a second round
Buggies back on the fairways made the experience much better
This was actually our favorite course over the Salgados and Morgado courses. A good layout with good but tricky greens. You can walk this course but it is designed for buggies.
At least we got to play this course,very enjoyable day.
More challenging than Morgado, loved all the sloping greens.
On arrival we were told that there was no buggies as the were all booked but we were told by yourselves that we could not book the buggies not having buggies on a course that hilly is a major problem staff not interested in any problem
Tricky and fast greens. Firm so difficult to hold on from long shots.
Had a great time. My friend and I have only been playing for 2 years so we are not the fastest players. We did not hold anyone up. The water hazards were like magnets for us! We would play here again.
Greens were magnificent Quite a walk from one or two of the greens to tee but managed okay Monday was our first round Saturday our last so we got buggies for the Saturday Fairways in good condition / Teeing areas are a bit sandy but both courses the greens were some of the best we have ever played
Not long but interesting holes, lots of risk and reward. sloppy teens but in excellent condition.
Course and greens all in good condition. Slopes on greens a good test.
Greens in good condition, some very good surrounding views
Some nice holes - some wacky - some spoilt by uneven ground and run offs. Course knowledge definitely comes in handy.
Better than the Morgado course. First 9 was good but then it became rather boring.
Course well maintained and in good condition. Good mixture of challenging holes for golfers of all abilities. A pleasure to play this course
Really enjoyable. Not in quite as good condition as other courses we played but still pleasant and fun to play.
Great course in good condition. Tighter and slightly shorter than Morgado so suits a straight hitter more than a long hitter.
A harder experience, lots of very nice holes that challenged or golf skills
Tight lots of water
4 of us played ,2 x13 handicappers,a21 and a 28 .This course is not very long and a very good course for a mix of different handicappers.Open fairways ,good greens and not a lot of trouble.
Part of the Morgado complex . So same complaint re: Buggies ‼️ The course is a bit trickier than it looks on the Card . Plenty of water ( Red stakes ) to avoid . Can’t just go around taking Driver off the Tee , it’s more a thinking Mans golf course . Good Greens and putted well . Some of the Fairways need a bit of attention but all in all a good test of Golf .
Very nice course. Play a bit slow up front.
My step son had nine birdies and then finished par we all found it easer than the morgardo not so much walking
Better than morgado
Due to the lack of buggies indicated on our visit to Morgado(same clubhouse) on the previous day((refer Morgado review) some of my group decided to stay in our hotel and forego this round altogether due to prevailing heat. Despite previous days advice that no buggies would be available,after further complaint, two were reluctantly provided on registration. Altogether a forgettable experience.
Very nice course with views, the fairways run side to side which made the ball run interesting. A few blind corner shots, certainly was an advantage for a big hitter. Great condition and enjoyable.
Superb little course, Buggies a must, quite a bit of distance between some of the holes. Think this was most of our groups favourite.
Not a bad course just baby sister to big brother morgado
Very nice course with a lovely lake feature at the start , lots of variety in the distances of the holes and laid out so that you had to think about course management rather than big hitting.
Course was brilliant and staff great too
Another good quality track similar to Morgado across the road. Some challenging par 3's.
Our favourite course and in great condition. We were fortunate that the course was not very busy on the two occasions we played and this allowed for a nice quick game.
greens in great condition
best greens of all 3 courses large greens with tricky undulations. Quick round due to early start under 4 hours.
