Quinta Do Vale Golf Resort

True to Seve's charismatic style, the course at Quinta do Vale is designed to thrill and challenge golfers of all abilities. Ballesteros promised a course that would please every player no matter their handicap and he delivered by creating a layout that rewards thoughtful play and bold shot-making. The course unfolds over 75 hectares of undulating terrain, with every hole carefully integrated into the natural landscape to give each one a distinct personality.

The journey begins with a front nine where water is a constant companion, guarding fairways and greens and demanding precision from the very first tee shot. The unique configuration of six par 3s, six par 4s and six par 5s ensures you will use every club in your bag, navigating clever doglegs and wide yet strategic fairways. As you move to the more elevated back nine the character shifts offering spectacular panoramic views across the valley towards Spain. The round culminates in a dramatic finishing hole where your approach must carry over water to find the final green a fitting end to a classic Seve adventure.

The impressive clubhouse sits in a commanding position overlooking the entire course, providing the perfect spot to relax before or after your round. Its large terrace offers stunning panoramic views where you can relive your best shots while enjoying a drink or a meal from the bar and restaurant. Inside you will find a well-equipped pro shop stocking all the essentials for your game.

To warm up and hone your skills, the resort provides excellent practice facilities. These include a driving range and dedicated areas for practicing your putting and chipping, ensuring you are fully prepared for the challenges that await on the course. A fleet of buggies and electric trolleys is also available for hire, making your journey around the hilly terrain a comfortable one.

Adding to the fantastic facilities, Quinta do Vale is excited to announce the opening of its new Academy Course. This 9-hole Pitch & Putt was designed with versatility at its heart, creating a space perfect for both dedicated practice and relaxed social golf. It provides an excellent opportunity for players of all levels to sharpen their skills in the technical areas which feature strategic bunkers and varied slopes.

For groups, the course offers an exclusive setting with private areas that can be reserved for tailored short game training sessions and clinics. It is also the ideal setting for a more casual experience, offering a fun and quick round with friends complemented by a cold beer, either as a warm-up or a perfect wind-down after tackling Seve Ballesteros' signature 18-hole masterpiece.
