Very good and helpful welcome. All staff really friendly. Course very challenging especially on such a windy day as we played it.
JULIAN PALLISTER
In good condition
Val Brooks
Poor condition, for first timers you would need a caddy on a lot of shots. Not sure of where we were going or wheee hazards came in to play.
Jeffrey Bowden
Course in lovely condition following the extreme rain earlier in the month, with only a couple of really wet areas. Greens still very firm and quick. We had an enjoyable round despite the slow play of the 3 groups ahead of us.
Barbara Hipp
Nice course in good condition. Staff was very friendly.
Philip Mitchell
After weeks of heavy rain and numerous cancelled events, we were amazed that this course was in such excellent condition throughout. Good layout and excellent playing surfaces. Be warned, water comes into play on numerous holes making it a course best played in calm weather. It was exceptionally windy when we played leading to an exceptional number of lost balls.
Phil Kennis
Well organized
Marja Kom
Kind of barren course some nicer holes, and certainly challenging holes but i would not drive here again to play.
Jeroen van Son
Very friendly welcome, easy start, buggy ready to go.
Nice experience. Challenging greens.
Henk Luiken
Second time on the course. Course is very nice, with views to Spain. They do every thing to keep you happy. 10 minutes between flight, is ok to have a nice round.
Pål Christiansen
The course is as usual, quite ok. It is well maintained and has interesting holes and varied topography.
Nuala
we loved the golf course - we didnt eat there so cant comment on food etc
Thomas Holley
A sporty and very beautiful golf course. The design of the fairways certainly lives up to a Seve Ballesteros signature course, as does the condition of the course. There are many alternatives for playing the individual holes, depending on your risk tolerance. Definitely a course you can play multiple times without getting bored ;-)
Niall Paul
Superb course, well designed with very dramatic vistas. Thoroughly enjoyable and great value
Wez Macey
We were picked up late by are transfer company which unfortunately made this day feel rushed from the start only arriving approximately 15mins before teetime not to take anything away from Quinta do vale lovely clubhouse fairways were excellent and as I expected from Seve the layout was exceptional but front 9 tough from the outset would like to play again when in better form and although the greens were receptive and acceptable it looks like unfortunately they have an issue with some kind of weed problem on some of the greens
David Parsons
Reception staff friendly and helpful as ever. I was paired up with 2 others who were good company. The course was in good condition generally, although the greens seemed a bit more uneven than on my previous visit in April.
Marc Dellow
Great Course, good service and nice condition. A great challenge.
Monika Franck
Ein sehr schöner, z. T. Durch die vielen Wasserhindernisse herausfordernden Platz. Insgesamt in einem recht guten Zustand, nur die Grüns waren etwas unruhig durch kleine grasbüschel. Jederzeit wieder. Die Menschen von der Rezeption und Gastronomie waren sehr freundlich
Brendan Forde
Nice course very deceiving but good .
Alan Penman
Very challenging layout. Possibly too many water hazards on front 9 albeit we played on a windy day. Greens were ok, bunkers very compacted.
Friendly staff,shame kitchen was closed.
Kev Brownlow
Excellent Challenging Course
Philip Rush
Fantastic course going bk in June next yr
Nigel Lander
Super course, 666 is the devils number and in the wind, it lived up to expectations. It gives you opportunities to attack but you have to be realistic and defend when faced with pond in front of the greens and trouble behind.
It’s a very good test, and good value.
Simon Blenkinsop
A fantastic challenge. Course was in fantastic condition. Greens were excellent. All in all a great day out and well worth the money.
Cameron Milne
Interesting course , would like to play again really enjoyed the challenge Thanks Jim
Simon Blenkinsop
A fantastic challenge. Course was in fantastic condition. Greens were excellent. All in all a great day out and well worth the money.
Marc Dellow
Great Course well organised as always by Mr Jim.
Jackie Robinson
Lovely game crap golf!
Bernd Weiss
very friendly people. The course is in good condition, very interesting to play. I guess without the wind you would play more directly and get a higher score. But with the wind you have to think-Great!
Mark Costelloe
Fabulous course but very testing
Jonathan Ashley Pickles
Absolutely Love this course, but hear golfers complain that it’s too tough!
When we play here we always play scramble drives, it just makes the game so much more enjoyable!
Take in the views and just enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
Will always keep coming back here, love it !
Randy Reynolds
Went really well
Looked after by club
Jonathan Ashley Pickles
Always love coming back to take in the fantastic views from the terrace at the rear of the clubhouse.
This course is a must for anyone coming to the Algarve !
Mikaela Ingberg
Challenging but enjoyable course, bring a lot of balls for the front 9 ;)
Brigitte Schmid
Very good course is not easy employees very friendly an helpful. I booked for 27. snd was there on 26. and they managed that we could play!
Miriam Horan
Excellent, lovely course really enjoyed it.

First time on Quinta do Vale. Smart clubhouse, not large with good reception. Though a 'resort' style course not busy or crowded (late February). Starter said less busy than usual. We had a buggy which was a good idea as the back nine is pretty hilly. Recent rain so course in good condition. Greens really fast and excellent though they still would hold the ball and left small pitch marks.
Loads of water hazards on the front nine (and the 18th). Both lateral and across the fairways. Lost four balls in the water, my partner six.
We played the 54 tees, equivalent to Yellow/seniors.
I was 16 over playing off 13, my partner 11 over playing off 18.
Martyn Travis
We were welcomed at reception and asked if we had played before, which we had several times. The staff in the bar were all great, as was our starter. The course was in good condition and the greens were very quick! Thoroughly enjoyed our day out. The staff at teatime were also very helpful.
Robert Moss
Again a Fantastic experience from start to finish
Sean Verity
Greeted by the pro who was very helpful. Explained the layout and directions. Course is a good test and greens were excellent. Tees also very good, fairways a little untidy in places.
Graham Mitton
Quinta do Vale is getting better and better since it joined forces with Quinta Da Ria. The course condition was good and nice to see the new short game course nearly ready for action.
Richard Ashley
This course is described as suitable for all standards of golfer, sorry this is not true. Some of the carries over water were ridiculous for a high handicap player. There is little room for errors as well. I know that I played just a few days after stormy weather but that is no excuse for the condition of the course which is poor in places. Greens are inconsistent. Very expensive for what it is.
Paul Gray
Excellent course
Niall O Shea
The quality of the golf course has noticeably improved since I last played it. I am not sure what changes have been made in the maintenance of the course but the course is in great condition.
Nicki Harrison
Lot of water but good course enjoyed my game.
Gill Hawkes
Lovely courses. Quite challenging if your not a long hitter
Remco Verheijden
WOW, loverly course, perfect kept, real party!!
honoust for the good golfplayer with tactics
Gareth Thompson
Good variety with 6 par 3’s, 6 par 4’s and 6 par 5’s. Front 9 has water in play on nearly every hole. Back 9 is more in the hills. Service was very good in and around the clubhouse and lunch was nice too.
Steve Hall
A fantastic, challenging course.
Well with visiting
Reception, course stewards and bar staff are so friendly and welcoming we booked another game
Euan Esslemont
Had a fantastic time! Was unlucky though and got eaten alive for first 6 holes with mosquitos. Good service.
Course played well.
Although quite wet underfoot and in bunkers.
Sidney Stuart
Course club house reception very good
Brendan Forde
Very nice course challenging conditions
Jackie Robinson
as usual millionaires golf not a soul in site apart from one guy on his own who we let through.
Reinoud van Haare Heijmeijer
Very welcoming staff. Great course, especially back nine. Maintenance is more than reasonable
Andy Edwards
Excellent and very tough golf course in good condition. Couldn't understand why it was so quiet there, but not going to complain about it
Gerard Kelly
Welcome at reception friendly and efficient. Course in great condition. Facilities inc clubhouse great. Under 4 hours. ????
Tim Gale
We really enjoy this course and we are regular visitors. The clubhouse is low key, simple, with friendly service, but may not be to everyone's taste.
Ronan Lewis
Great staff, excellent service. Course average.
