Troia Golf Course - latest comments and reviews

Just love the trip to Troia. Such a wonderful course. It appears that they are having trouble with animals digging up parts of the course. The cost of the ferry has increased making the day quite expensive but I would go back again. It's a treat.

A superb test of golf , one of the very best golf courses in Portugal.

Played many times before, one of our group favourites, and always a serious challenge that's especially tough when windy & wet! To enjoy feel players need to be under 15 handicap and pretty straight off the tee, as so much sandy waste that's so difficult to escape. Well worth the ferry trip across from Setubal [a much more interesting town than at first glance].

We played this course twice during our golf trip. There is some damage from wild boar activity, particularly on the practice ground. Fortunately, the main playing areas were unaffected, and were generally in good condition. The greens were excellent - quick and consistent. This remains one of my favourite golf courses. It is a good test of golf for anyone and offers an experience unlike many other in Portugal. The ferry trip from Setubal makes the day!

Magnifique parcours. Dommage qu il n y ait aucun dessin des trous sur les départs ou sur la carte de score.

The buggy was far for mint conditions (the throttle wasn't working well and it run out of battery). The course is good

Steve Forster 2022-02-25
Really great golf course. Fantastic greens. Was a bit slow due to a large society out earlier but otherwise really enjoyed playing. Bar staff were really friendly too.

It was our first round at Troia. Overall we found that the course was not in a great shape. Perhaps this is normal during the winter season. Bunkers and greens were good to play though. Would not return this time of the year.

Simone Bleeker 2021-09-13
Ein richtig toller Golf course. Sehr interessant gestaltet mit vielen Bunkern und abwechslungsreicher Gestaltung. Und die Aussicht ist einfach umwerfend. Da war ich bestimmt nicht das letzte Mal. Das Personal sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Da muss man gewesen sein.

Lovely golfing experience

Martin Firth 2020-02-16
Top layout and long from the back tee's. The natural landscape is impressive and the course quality high. Only downside was in February there wasnt much service available for food and drinks but a minor point.

Catriona Thomas 2019-11-01
Very enjoyable links course. Not overly long but well designed.

Bjorn Lorentzi 2019-10-30
Troia is a great place. Friendly staff and a great course. Today the only issue was the greens that was not cleaned.

Clive Smith 2019-10-21
A very high class golf course. It is probably better suited to the games of low handicappers, but if you select appropriate tees it can be enjoyed by anyone. Large waste areas; extensive bunkering, and small, fast greens all make the course very challenging. In excellent condition at the time of our visit. The clubhouse is very comfortable, and the practice area has everything you need for to warm up for your round. Comined with a ferry trip across the Sado estuary this is a great day out. We will return.

Flip Goudsmit 2019-10-14
beautiful layout, very challenging from tees to be on the sweet spot of fairways. magnificent views over the bay.. Very well maintained, super greens

Willem de Lange 2019-10-09
Nice course, very difficult due to waste areas instead of rough.

Chris Grindell 2019-09-28
Loved this course - pretty demanding and very nice welcome when we were there

RUBEN Garcia 2019-08-08
Maravilloso campo de golf en un enclave perfecto. Campo no muy largo pero muy técnico

Dirk van West 2019-07-26
Very nice golf course next to the ocean. Friendly staff. However, it was a pity that I had to play when there was a tournament going on..

Juan Navarro 2019-07-15
Ok. Todo perfecto. Muchas gracias. Juan Navarro

spencer sinden 2019-04-13
Very friendly and helpful staff when I had to change my tee time. Course was in superb condition, in a beautiful location. Definitely would recommend.

Schmidt 2019-03-20
"Holiday"-Course. Easy to Play, in fair condition, many bunkers and waste Areas. Very narrow Course, greens and next tees next to each other. When returning from game at 4:30pm, the kitchen was closed. Thus, no rating of restaurant possible Rating: not more than 5.

Alistair Geddes 2018-11-22
Fabulous course! Such a shame for them it is so quiet but that suited me just fine.. If it was a little cheaper it may attract more players.

Thierry Leroy 2018-11-06
Golf is awesome and in great condition. Sunny and windy making it challenging. Great experience !

Clive Smith 2018-11-05
Course excellent. Staff friendly. All round great golf experience

Santiago 2018-11-01
The Course is fantastic. I played very good in my opinion it is not a difficult golf course. I am hp 10,5. I made 12 pars 2 double boggy, 3 bogies and one out. Green are good and fast. I highly recommend it.

Werner Ockenfels 2018-10-03
Troia is a beautyful golfcourse. Very friendly staff and a unexpected golf expierience. Mostly flat but windy. Playing under palmtrees was very joyful and the greens were like deutsche Autobahn. Very fast. One thing i like to mention is the moscito Plaque. Bring some insect protection with you. There is none in the pro-shop.

Francisco Javier Alvarez Perez 2018-09-10
Muy buen campo de golf. Complicado si no te mantienes en calle, rough de arena. Buena casa club pero mal servicio de cafetería, no había prácticamente nada para el desayuno, muy básico para la comida y sobretodo con personal muy poco preparado.

Timo Orkola 2018-09-10
Everything handled fine

NURIA DIAZ-VARELA 2018-08-15

Daniel Oroz 2018-08-09

Jan Huysmans 2018-07-21
Fantastic golfcourse with amazing views

Iñigo Yeregui 2018-06-26
Muy satisfactoria la jornada de golf. Campo con buenas vistas al océano Atlántico. Calles y greens muy bien cuidados. Campo de cierta dificultad con viento, sobre todo si te sales de calle, el rough es arena de playa y los greens están bien defendidos por bunquers. El personal en recepción es muy amable. En definitiva, muy recomendable.

Rostaing 2018-06-14
Excellent

Tuilier 2018-06-04
Very nice and very challenging with west windy. Staff very friendly, nice pro shop and good restaurant .

Olaf Wilsdorf 2018-05-22
Nice welcome. Buggy is quiet expensive, after 5 pm only small services in the club Restaurant, but the course was well prepared, has a good setup for all Kind of players and offers great views over the ocean

HOUTIN Marc 2018-05-07
Très joli parcours dans un cadre exceptionnel. Hélas c'est un parcours qui ne pardonne aucune erreur puisqu'en dehors des fairway il n'y a que du sable. Dommage ????

simon davis 2018-05-03
Great course very testing golf

Bernt Ole Ørum-Petersen 2017-11-07

Lovely golf course. Excellent service.

Fred Norton 2017-10-18
Troia ist one of the most beautiful Locations in Portugal. A wonderful course. We love it.

Antony Gunn 2017-10-16
Staying in cascais it’s around 2 hrs to Tróia but well worth the trip the course was in great condition but really tuff,leave the fairway & your in sand

Thomas Fraiß 2017-10-16
Troia is - next to Oitavos Dunes - the best course in the surroundings of Lisbon.

Judy Dare 2017-10-12
We very much enjoyed our golf today. It was a pleasure to play fairway woods off lovely grassy fairways. One does need to be accurate as there is so much sand around and not necessarily in the bunkers! A good test of golf. The staff were all delightful and so helpful - we give them five stars. The food and drink were much enjoyed, with a good choice from the menu, when we had a break after 9 holes, before continuing the back 9. Thank you Troia Golf for a lovely days golf.

Helen Pettitt 2017-09-25
We played Troia twice on our trip. We love this course but it stands up to its nickname 'Troia the destroyer'on a windy day. As always lovely helpful staff. We had a nice lunch sitting overlooking the first tee which was very tasty. We will be back

Claude Fatta 2017-08-27
Superbe endroit

Clive Smith 2017-05-07
A great day out. We travelled by ferry from Setubal, which takes you across the very lovely Sado estuary. The clubhouse and practice facilities are of a very high standard; and the staff welcoming. The course is attractive and well maintained, with plenty of variety from hole to hole. It is ideal for golfers of all abilities. Very definitely a destination I would recommend.

John Risholm 2017-03-01
Excellent, especially after the have built a new club house.

Tom McKeon 2016-10-24
Fantastic course, one of the best we've ever played anywhere in the world. I couldn't praise it high enough.

Paul Johnson 2016-09-19
Excitement builds as you board the ferry to Troia, This was a great start to the three rounds, with a fabulous lunch on the terrace. Quite a tough track first time out, with large waste areas of sand, but very playable with some thought. The greens were dreadful, which was very disappointing. Long grass, slow, uneven and a two putt on every green was about as good as it got. I would hesitate to recommend this course without knowing when the greens are in prime condition. The views and many of the holes were wonderful, such a shame the edge was taken off by the green conditions.

Franco Di Fonzo 2016-07-06
Troia is for great players. This links it seems easy but is very taft. Sand on the side of the fairway give you the possibility of finding the ball, but is very delicate to come out.

Claus Rottinghaus 2016-05-17
Fantastic course. Real links near the ocean.

Tony Seeley 2016-05-14
The best course we played - a formidable challenge - you need to stay positive - open to the wind with fabulous views, small greens, plenty of sand - very quiet - millionaires golf!

Douglas Graham Jones 2016-03-25
It was good to return to Quinta do Peru. The course is still a challenge especially the second nine but I was disappointed by the scale of development which, for me detracted from the experience.

Mehul Patel 2015-11-08
One word. Superb.

Oliver White 2015-10-28
tough course,trouble with groups cutting on 10th having stopped for refreshments.long transfer with ferry.

David Sibley 2015-10-19
Great experience but greens let it down.

Chez Carlos Golf Society 2012-02-12
The Society travelled northwards on its annual trip away once again to the Costa Azul region of Lisbon. It was an early start after breakfast at Parkies Cafe for a mid-morning tee off at Troia. Currently ranked 32 in Continental Europe Troia holds the record that Sam Torrance was the only player to beat Par to win the Portuguese Open in 1983. Thomas Levet described it as ‘the toughest course in Europe’. Architect Robert Trent Jones built a masterpiece set amidst sandy dunes and towering pine trees on a coastal peninsular with spectacular views of the mountain range across the ocean. Small greens heavily guarded by large bunkers demand aerial approach shots. The course was in fighting form with the greens set at ‘12’ on the stimpmeter. Anything on the wrong side could result in the ball sliding off into the fringe and beyond. It was a day not for the faint hearted! Great course and well worth the effort getting there.
