Alamos Golf Club is one of the most recent additions to the vast number of incredible courses in the Algarve region of courses. It is beautifully tucked away in the undulating landscape and provides a fantastic test for golfers of all abilities. The holes weave through the hills and glide across the landscape creating undulating greens and fairways which require a great deal of accuracy. The course provides players with fantastic views of the Monchique mountain range and is definitely worth playing as it offers a unique test and challenge for compared to other Algarve course. Together with the Morgado and Salgados, Alamos is part of the delightful triumvirate of golf courses that make a great tour around the town of Portimao.
STATS
Par: 71
Designed by: John Seymour.

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.
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.
