This summer, Vilamoura will serve up more than just elite golf. From 16 August to 13 September 2025, the Old Course Clubhouse will host a five-week series of Michelin-starred chef dinners, combining culinary excellence with one of the Algarve’s most iconic golf destinations.
Every Saturday evening between 20:00 and 22:00, a different Michelin-starred chef will take over the Clubhouse kitchen, offering guests a five-course tasting menu built around the theme Portugalidade à mesa, a celebration of Portugal’s regional flavours and culinary identity. Each dining experience is priced at €150 per person and takes place inside the Clubhouse’s recently renovated space, styled after traditional British golf pubs.
The series opens on 16 August with Rodrigo Castelo (Ó Balcão, Santarém), who’ll reinterpret classic Ribatejo flavours. On 23 August, Louis Anjos (Al Sud, Lagos) brings a refined Algarvian touch to the table. The chef for 30 August remains a surprise, with the name set to be announced via the Clubhouse’s social media channels.
Rounding out the event are two acclaimed Lisbon-area chefs: Alexandre Silva (Loco) on 6 September, known for his experimental flair, and Gil Fernandes (Fortaleza do Guincho) on 13 September, who specialises in local seafood and coastal cuisine.
For golf travellers, this is a rare chance to enjoy a round at the historic Old Course followed by a Michelin-level meal, all without leaving the resort. With demand expected to be high, early booking is advised.
