Excellent venue, great clubhouse that's reasonably priced with a good choice of food post-round. Buffet breakfast is good (unless you arrive at the last minute). Accommodation is excellent, we had two balconies overlooking the course, and all the amenities needed. The one issue is the shuttlebus. We were right at the far end of the resort, and my gammy leg stopped walking being an option. The shuttlebus driver takes his breaks very seriously, not much good when you need to get to a tee time! A big frustration for otherwise an excellent experience.
The Algarve region of Portugal is a paradise for golfers and the Amendoeira Golf Resort is a prime example of what makes the area such a great destination. Attention to detail is the key to the success of this resort with golf courses by Nick Faldo, Christy O’Connor Jr. and the region’s only floodlit par-3 course.
Found just 15-minutes from the beautiful beaches of southern Portugal with fabulous views to the magnificent Monchique Mountains, Amendoeira Golf Resort is home to luxurious 4-star apartments & villas and lends itself well to both a family trip and a group of friends getting some Portuguese heat in for their golfing holiday.
The Faldo course was awarded the Best Course in Portugal in 2016 by the World Golf Awards and consistently ranked as a top 100 course in Continental Europe. Only thirty minutes from Faro airport and just over two hours from Lisbon, this great golf resort is in a great spot to do some exploring of Portugal in general.
