Golf Courses at Pestana Dom Joao II Hotel

Gramacho Course

Designer Fream was aided by multiple major-winner Nick Price in creating the Gramacho Course, the second at Carvoeiro. The Gramacho is unique in that it has 18 sets of tees, but has 27 greens, making for a welcome variety. The 6,679 yard layout features many obstacles, including lakes, rocks and walls, as well as the almond, fig and olive trees that help to make the course so beautiful. The Gramacho has been selected to host the Ladies European Tour's finest players, and is a fascinating challenge.

Hosted Events : Hosted the Ladies Open of Portugal in 2005 & 2007, a Ladies European Tour Event.

Silves Course

Just ten minutes away is the Silves Course, the third on offer for guests at the Carvoeiro resort. Silves is a typical resort course, with generous rolling fairways, and a number of large water hazards. Bordered by palm and olive trees, the course affords terrific views of the mountains and the valley. The main difficulty is the severity of the green-side bunkers, so accurate approach shots are crucial around this delightful Algarve track.

Alto Golf & Country Club

Situated in a stunning private community in the Western Algarve, Alto was the last course to be designed by the legendary Sir Henry Cotton. The winding fairways and elevated greens are typical of Cotton's architectural philosophy, and ensure that there is a stern challenge for the low handicap players, whilst remaining fair for the average golfer. Set across two rolling hills, visitors will enjoy beautiful views of the Lagos Bay.

Could have been better. We arrived early on day one and as we had B&B the breakfast didn’t start until the following day, as we were leaving in the middle of the night on our last day I asked if we could swap our booked and paid for breakfast to our arrival day. Refused! So we had to pay €14 each for breakfast being promised a continental breakfast at 2:30am on our check out day. They left a mountain of butter a bit of cheese, some meat and some stale bread. No milk, no cereal, no tea. Very poor for 12 people. Watch your bar bills as service charge is added to your drinks very upset when you ask for it to be removed. The great thing is the location and the rims are comfortable but could do with a kettle.

Good value for money overall. The staff were very helpful, and the proximity to beach was very good. Close to some nice beach bars, just a few minutes walk. Walking into Alvor took about 10-15 mins. The pool area was clean. Only had breakfast and drinks in the hotel - plenty of choice. Downsides - our room was quite small for three - two single beds and a sofa bed, but for all the time we were in there it was ok. Only two lifts to service five floor (we were on the 5th floor) meant there were often some queues to use the lifts. Overall, a pleasant experience

Hotel is well appointed and in a great location for an easy walk into Alvor along the boardwalk. The rooms are comfortable and clean with fridges and balconies. Down side is noisey guests with no consideration for others, especially getting out of Taxis and in the corridors. The few of the staff need some serious customer service training. Overall I would still recommend staying here.

On arrival they had everyone of our 12 rooms all under the name of our group organiser. This hardly gave the best impression of efficiency. What made it worse was that two days before our arrival I had written to them confirming all those who were to arrive and highlighted that the name of the organiser should be excluded from the arrivals list as he, poor chap, had to go into hospital. Equally on the admin front, they tried their best to charge extra for a late arrival of one of our member’s wife who was booked into his double room and it took ages to get that sorted because they would not read the booking form correctly, just what someone had keyed onto their system which I suppose was sacrosanct. Finally, given a little over a fortnight’s notice, we had asked for score cards at each of the courses to be available for output arrival, but no one knew anything about that request despite my showing them the original e-mail to the front desk!

Have stayed at the Dom Joao for the past 18 years and am always satified. Pestana have a great business model and it shows in their properties and staff. The hotel has undergone a makeover during the Covid lockdowns and it bright, modern and airy looking. The breakfast facilities have been improved with additional service stations anf extra equipment. However, there is still room for improvement with regard to the hot buffet. I like my food on the HOT side and the temperature of the hot buffet is just not quite there. That said, I do enjoy the fact that you can get omlettes and fried eggs cooked fresh. A great place to stay.

The breakfast were usual buffet type breakfast but the standard of cereal and jam and those kind of things did seem poor. The town of Alvor is a 10 minute walk away and has a fantastic choice of restaurants and bars with great service and great atmosphere. The boardwalk and the beach are superb so the town and beach area more than made up for the little let down of the food and spa.

I was bitterly disappointed about our room (N0 207). We had paid extra for a Sea View, however when looking from our balcony the view was blocked by some concrete construction, which I am still not what it was and large trees. We could just about see the Sea but I would say it was less 10% of the overall scene (picture available if you want it). I did complain and was willing to pay extra for a room on a higher floor but was told the Hotel was full. Over the week I asked a few guests who were on the 3rd and 4th floors when they booked there holiday and about 50% of them had made reservations in the past 3 months, which seems to me there is no advantage in booking early as you will only be allocated a poor room. As to the room, it was kept spotless by the cleaning staff and they are to be congratulated. The bars and restaurants were Ok but nothing special. The hotel want 25 euros for an evening meal (20 euros) if you book the day before for a buffet type service. As you can get a very decent meal with a drink for two in Alvor (15 mins away) for less 40 euros, I would avoid the hotel. If you are having breakfast, get there before 0800 as after then it is a bit of a "Bun Fight". Next to the hotel is the Pestana golf shop and the staff in there were excellent. We needed to change some dates and times for our vouchers and nothing was too much trouble for them, once again the staff should be congratulated, as with all the general staff of the hotel.
