Portugal golf holidays – Dom Pedro Vilamoura official hotel of the Vilamoura Marina International Boat Show

Dom Pedro Vilamoura official hotel of the Vilamoura Marina International Boat Show

Dom Pedro Vilamoura

Dom Pedro Vilamoura is the official hotel of the Vilamoura Marina International Boat Show, an initiative promoted by FIL and the Vilamoura Marina, between June 5th and 13th, and will host the event’s entourage, while the Dom Pedro Old Golf Course will be the stage for the Vilamoura Boat Show Golf Trophy, a ‘side event’ of the initiative that takes place on June 5th.

The idea of holding the Vilamoura Boat Show Golf Trophy as a ‘side event’ of the Vilamoura Marina International Boat Show arose because “boating and golf” go hand in hand in the Algarve.

Since the Boat Show has been a highly renowned event for several years and aims to promote Vilamoura among sophisticated segments with characteristics that fit with Golf, the idea came up to organize this trophy to link two products, in which Vilamoura is number 1 in Portugal and Europe, Nautical and Golf.

For the organization, this event represents an “opportunity to leverage tourism in the Algarve, contributing to the economic and tourist growth” of the region.

Boating and golf end up being complementary, so, this ‘side event’, the Vilamoura Boat Show Golf Trophy fits in with the event’s theme and adds content to the Vilamoura Boat Show.

For the organization, as well as for Dom Pedro Vilamoura, this “event and its side events” constitute the addition of content to help foster the economy of south Portugal, especially in periods that are not yet high season, such as June. They will create notoriety for the destination and the motivation for people to choose the Algarve for Golf breaks or family holidays. Thus, they are very important events for the economy of the Algarve.

Tee Times Golf Agency considers this combination of sports very appropriate, as both sports have great prominence and give great visibility to the Algarve region, as well as the Dom Pedro chain, both in its hospitality version and in the management of the best golf courses in Vilamoura.

An unparalleled golf break in Vilamoura will have to be at one of the charming and welcoming Dom Pedro Hotels, Dom Pedro Golf ****, Dom Pedro Portobelo **** or Dom Pedro Marina **** complemented by at least 1 round at each Dom Pedro Golf Courses, Old Course, Victoria, Pinhal, Millennium & Laguna.
Very special packages available combining accommodation and golf rounds or the unique packages for 3, 4, 5 or more rounds, as well as unmissable Groups, Pro & Juniors offers.

Filipe Lima prefers the Portugal Golf Masters to the Challenge Golf Tour

Filipe Lima prefers the Portugal Golf Masters

Filipe Lima has no doubts and ensures that he will choose the Portugal Golf Masters, to be played in Vilamoura at Dom Pedro Victoria Golf Course over the South African swing of the Challenge Golf Tour.

The 39-years-old Portuguese has the prestige to play in full time on the Challenge Golf Tour in 2021, but will choose to compete in the second European division and concentrate more on the opportunities he has to play in the main European level, not feeling that way, affected for the Challenge Golf Tour decision to postpone its three tournaments in South Africa from February to April and May.

Last season, when he realized that the pandemic would damage the competitive calendar, the Portuguese golfer resident in France took the opportunity to reduce the competitions, given the promise of the European circuit organizers to freeze the categories and keep them for 2021.

Likely, Filipe Lima would only enter the Oman Open Golf in March, so if the Challenge Golf Tour kicks off in February, as planned, he could try his luck.

Filipe Lima has a special affection for the Portugal Golf Masters in Vilamoura played at the Dom Pedro Victoria Golf Course. He is the second Portuguese with the best honours in this competition. He cut four times and in 2017 tied with Ricardo Melo Gouveia in 5th place, with whom he shares this national record.

It would be a weight reinforcement to have him at the Montado Hotel & Golf Resort (1st Tournament of the FPG Circuit). Ricardo Melo Gouveia has already perfectly admitted the possibility of starting his 2021 season in Palmela and, after all, Lima and Melo Gouveia are the two players who represented Portugal at the Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games in 2016.

Tee Times Golf Agency shares the special affection for the Portugal Masters and the Dom Pedro Victoria Golf Course, having for this tournament and all the golf holidays vast suggestions of golf packages including the best hotels and golf courses in the region, highlighting the Hotels: Tivoli Marina Vilamoura, Vila Galé (Ampalius & Marina), Dom Pedro (Vilamoura & Marina) and all the other Vilamoura courses (Pinhal, Laguna, Millennium & Old course).
