A link golf course, the course is challenging with very well protect green.

Chad Millington 2022-03-03
Nice course and fabulous greens but the layout is strange which leads to a lot of walking.

Good to play such an old course. More challenging than it looks. a pity there was too much fog on the day I played.

Stunning coarse. Tough but a pleasure to play.

Staff made us very welcome, and we’re flexible about tee times. Course was in very good shape and we enjoyed both rounds that we played on two separate days. Bar was open and snacks very good. We would certainly go back.

ANDREW BURNS 2023-06-07
A fabulous old style course. The condition of the tees, fairways and green is first class. It is well worth the journey from Porto to play this truly great course. It is a real challenge off the white tees!!

Scenic and challenging course set in hilly woodland. A very pleasant day’s golf with some spectacular holes. A nice clubhouse with bar and restaurant to enjoy after the golf. Golf car is a must.

Very hilly course means that a buggy is essential. Distance between green and next tee was some distance on some holes. Some holes tight and twisty on the slopes. Greens were quite damp and soft and not the best we witnessed. Very nice modern clubhouse and the best value and quality food we sampled of the three courses we played.

Sehr interessanter Platz, große Höhenunterschiede, ohne Golfbuggy sehr anstrengend. Hat schon bessere Zeiten gesehen, in Bunkern fehlt oft der Rechen, das Wasser in Ballwasher ist dreckig. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich. Die Gastronomie ist sehr gut.

I got to Vidago Golf via recommendation from an Estela Golf Club member.It was worthwile my time. A course which I defenitely will play again. Weather, wind and using different tee boxes would make it a new challenge everyday. The course is fun to play and a challenge to play up to your handicap or better. The staff at Vidago is extremly friendly and helpful. Everything was prepared as we arrived and water supplied. They have a good driving range and the changing rooms were clean with everything you needed. Sittting on the clubhouse terrace afterwards, with a drink in our hands , made our day. But with ervery praise comes some blame. In my opinion this place could be rated a lot better! Little improvements: a) Distance markers (minimum 150m and 100m)on the side of the fairway, so be seen right away. The markers in the fairway were easy to be overlooked. Not everybody uses a watch or a distance finder. b) Every bunker (were quite a few...) I hit, wasn´t raked by the person in front of me, judging by the recurring sole marks. A repeating sign, that golf etiquette shouldn`t be forgotten, would help. Not every golfcourse has caddies or greenkeepers, who rake it three times a day. Larger improvement: a) The clubhouse is a big hall, which could act as a ball room. It looks very cold and could use some modifications (weather is not always good and different sized groups want their privacy). I think, it would be a must, considering the impressive sorroundings. b) I don´t know a lot about marketing, but if another Golfer wouldn´t have told me, I would have never discovered. Maybe the management want it that way? We had great weather, so we sat outside, enjoying the park and the hospitality of the very polite and friendly staff. I played Western Cliffs and Estela, both outstanding in their own way. So my judgement is subjective but hopefully helpful. I´m convinced, if they want?!, Vidago could easily move up a few ranks in the Portugese Golf ranking. Thank you! Dieter (Handicap 14)

Excellent course, excellent staff.

Andrew Heath 2023-05-07
Great course, in excellent condition. It was also very quiet when we played today so making it even more enjoyable

Fernando Monteiro 2023-05-02
Un excellent parcours, bien dessiné et très bien entretenu. Attention, les trous 16 a 18 peuvent remettre en question la carte de score. -**- An excellent course, well designed and very well maintained. Beware, holes 16 to 18 may challenge the scorecard.

Colm Mac Eoin 2023-04-09
Lovely course, welcoming pro shop staff. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the rental clubs. I had the course to myself today, I did not meet another golfer.

Jorge Ramos 2023-04-05
Excellent service and golf course was in great shape.

Chad Millington 2022-03-06
Gorgeous hotel and great golf course, especially the back 9. Course would benefit from more distance markets.

Robert Gorter 2021-07-14
Great golf course, downhill uphill doglegs blind shots, perfect greens...has it all!

Martin Hilke 2022-04-21
Buggy needed, excellent putting greens, fast Fairways, some Stones in the Bunker, beautiful landscape, friendly staff. All you need for a good day at golf…

Sandra Vargo 2019-10-02
The course is very challenging. The greens really hold which is nice. The staff is ver friendly and accommodating. Going back again tomorrow.

Jan Huysmans 2019-07-21
We had a very warm welcome from Rui Morris, the golf pro and director. Very challeging course with nice views. There is a bit of work to do on the greens, teeboxes and some areas of the fairways but when we heard the golfcourse had been closed and reopened this year, it should not hold you back to play Amarante Golf.

Jim Lavelle 2018-06-04
Great course, in very good condition. Lots of up and downs. Staff really helpful, spoke good English. 2 of us played in 3.5 hours, even with a stop for coffee and 20 minutes for a rain storm. Course very interesting with no 2 holes alike. Generous fairways, greens were a little slow because of the rain, but not bumpy.
