Des Robertson
Course in great condition . Friendly staff enjoyable game of golf
Des Robertson
Beautiful course, long and quite tough in the heat. Challenging if ball wanders off the fairway into the longer grass as it really holds onto your ball!
Mr Matthew Jaggar
We had a great afternoon at Pinhal, the booking of the tee time was really easy and Cheryl made all of the arrangements, and answered any questions we had in good time. My 10 year old son wanted to play and when we got to the course the lady at reception said there would be no way he could play and had a bit of a dismissive attitude, we were initially told this wouldn't be a problem. After speaking to a very kind helpful man called Hugo Pinto at the buggy/trolley park, he made my sons day by pulling a set of smaller clubs together for him. We had the best afternoon together playing the beautiful course and would definitely return. Thank you Cheryl for arranging the round and Hugo for making it possible for us to play together x
Stefan Heins
What a Fantastic overall experience! Pinhal course was impressive and in top condition. Cheryl Cruz and tee times did a great job we will definitely be coming back again and using them in future.

Really great set up. As we came directly from the airport, having a large locker room to accommodate all our groups bags in secure lockers was great. Course was in good condition. All staff were very friendly and accommodating.

DESJAMES Fabrice
Golf de qualité tres agreable a jouer ! Alterne entre technique et detente!
Warren Shekyls-Youn
Very enjoyable course
DAN HIGGS????
Staff, greens and fairways excellent. New path is restrictive , untidy , and frustrating. Also new buggy speed and area restrictions need adjusting . Forced slow down where not required . Not as good at Quinta where the same thing works fine.
Neil Clydesdale
Course in good condition - welcome very friendly - not too busy so pace of play good.
Maurice Coreau
Nice course .

Dennis Meredith
Another wonderful visit to Pinhal, course was in great condition and you can notice the upgrade works taking place. Will be added to our 2027 list.
David Schofield
Extremely friendly and accommodating
Nice young man
David Taylor
Course not in as good condition as previous years. But assume this due to poor weather in recent months.
Lockie Williams
Beautiful golf course. Course was in excellent shape. Staff were very helpful and friendly.
Daryll
Very good experience
Morna Bell
Good interesting course. Helpful staff
Jeff Shriver
This golf course needs proper bathrooms placed conveniently around the course. Right now the bathroom facilities are terrible. The single toilet that is in use for three different holes and does not have separate Mens/Womens restrooms is absolutely ridiculous. Management should ashamed of the current facilities. If it were up to me I'd fire whoever let it get to this state.
Ulla Gustavsson
A very nice golf course. The staff were good to help us.
Russell Tanner
Great sevice
Colm Smith
Excellemt course and facilities
Halper Johannes
The greens are good, fairway and tee box not in the best condition
Gerald McKay
Very nice course, good to see new buggy paths. Fairway and greens in excellent condition. Golf and Clubhouse team friendly and efficient
Susan Baker
Excellent. Very quiet, played 2 ball with no-one around us.
Gosette Stein
Course in good shape
Philip Napleton
3rd time playing here and it remains a very friendly club. The course has a lot of trees that make it tricky. There is a lot of investment and work going on at the course including thinning out the trees which is a little disruptive but it is very clear it is going to benefit the course hugely.
Alexis Monville
The course was in good shape
The people were great
Yes there was some construction work for the paths and some tree trimming
But that was ok overall
Dwight Rudderham
This course was not a lot of fun to play. Good shots were often not rewarded. The course was generally well maintained and the greens were good. It was just unfair due in large part to odd placement of trees
Mark Hughes
First time playing Pinhal. Was impressed with the setup, clubhouse and facilities. Recommended.
Kevin Maguire
We always play the yellow markers at Pinhal but on this occasion there wasn't much difference on a lot of the holes between them and the back markers. A bit dissapointing. Other than that the course was in reasonable condition.
Jonathan Bell
Great course and beautiful clubhouse and service! Really fast greens!
David Schofield
Beautifully presented course and a pleasure to play
Sverre Phillip Olsen

Great course and getting better!
Jonathan Raw
Greens good but a bit slow.
Ian Black
amazing place greens fantastic. just a lot of work being done on the course
Darryl Williamson
Very scenic course with some great holes. Some tees untidy & occasional poor fairway lies but overall a really enjoyable course
Ian Gorham
Nice course. Good condition. Well organised. Good pace of play. Very tight course, a few holes quality compromised because of rogue pines, would benefit from some tree surgery. Otherwise great.
Philippe Mercier
Excellente
Philip Sheldon
Loved the course and facilities, disappointed that our group of 6 was split 4 / 2 and by the small tvs in the clubhouse.
Andy Noon
Great course although not in perfect condition.
Cliff Morgan
Superb condition as usual and great to see all paving works in progress.
Maurice Rogers
I have played Pinhal on many occasions over the years and I have to say the course is in the best condition I have ever seen it. Good to see the owners investing in improvements such as new buggy paths and thinning out the trees.
Ray Davis
The actual course very well maintained and presented, notwithstanding works on a new pathway still in course of completion. Excellent club house facilities and quality food offering.
Amanda Johnson
Everyone very friendly , lady in pro shop very helpful
Work that is going on is very positive on the course. The buggy paths are very good etc
William Wright
Great time lovely course unfortunately because we were a party of 3 were added a fourth person who had no course etiquette and would not listen to advice .Otherwise great experience in the sun.
Oilean Mulligan
Very good everyone was lovely and very welcoming
Stuart Webster-spriggs
The course wasn't in the best of conditions (compared to Salgado)
Christopher DREW
Excellent, best condition we have seen it in 20 years of going there.
Stuart McLean
Course in nice condition and the greens were fast and true.
Dave Parker
Course in excellent condition, as usual.
Jack Mills
Really nice course. Staff were good but were a bit rude about timings and making sure we were back by 7.50pm with the buggy. Teed off at 4:40pm and finished at 7.50 on the dot. Great course, pure greens.
Richard Kent
Excellent golf course, very well kept course, greens in great condition. Challenging with over hanging trees. Excellent facilities and would play it again for sure.
Ian McPherson
Welcoming, pleasant halfway house, course in outstanding condition
Bent Hessel
Bogies too expensive!!!
Danny sneddon
Course was good but out with the course ie cart paths was not so good.
Martin McDonagh
Tough first 4 holes due to length and tree lined fairways. Lots of trees on rest of course. One or two in fairway! Course in good condition also great practice area
Harald Wirths
The best course during the week even the pines are very challenging and I had the most Punch shots since ages. A very nice and well mantained course.
Lyne Gélinas
Beautiful course Green and fairway were ok, but we had a problem with our car. Ways between each hole were difficult
James Page
Great course, we loved it and will come again
DESJAMES Fabrice
Entre amis, très beau golf le club house un peu juste mais belle expérience
John Joseph Gaffney
Loved playing Pinhal. Our first round in Portugal, course in great condition and presented a good challenge. Staff were all top draw, from pro-shop, to lady in cafe and also the Starter
Clive Mabbutt
Course in great condition … strange the club house closes at 8pm so if slow getting around on Twighlight golf getting a drink or food impossible
Vincent Burke
Pinhal fantastic.
James Cosgrove
Place was immaculate, staff friendly, course was in great condition and well priced food and drinks
Kjell Baudin
For the higher prices now for greenfees from Vilamoura Golf they have to deliver quality on all things! The buggieroads at Pinhal is a disaster as always been before.
And we don't see any improvements on the course in general so far. But the service in the reception/shop/buggieguys and restaurant is excellent as always! We have played Pinhal many times so we know what we are talking about. The higher prices for greenfees on all former Dom Pedro courses are thinkable! Because you always expect what you pay for.
Best regards,
Kjell & Heléne Baudin
Jeannot Mailhot
Très beau terrain les normales trois sont superbes et les prix pour la bière et les sandwiches sont aussi très bon
Lars-Erik Aursand
Coarse in very good condition this year.
Dennis Meredith
Once again Pinhal presented in wonderful condition. Also a pleasure to play there and a fair challenge to all levels of golfer.
Clive Sims
We thought the course was in good condition considering all the rain recently.
Josef Platner
Playing Pinhal is much better than for example Laguna. Despite the weather Pinhal is in best shape
John Harte
Great course in great condition
Kevin Maguire
Eight in our group played Pinhal on the 5th of March, its been a while since we played it and we were pleasantly surprised how dry the fairways were compaired to Laguna we played the day before. The greens were in good condition
Sean Murtagh
It felt a little like a municipal coursee
Gerald Nuessel
Guter Platz, guter Zustand
Neil Coyne
Great traditional golf course and superb greens
Jaroslav Mraz
some of the holes are of a poorer quality
Paul Anderson
Always enjoy Pinhal despite it playing quite long and challenging - and that's from a 7 HC player who's not too short off the tee. The course condition was very good with a great variety of hole layouts. The challenges come from pine trees in the middle of one or two fairways, or jutting out into a few fairways, and then the greens are very small making it difficult to hit them. If you're on holiday, and not worried about playing to your handicap, go enjoy Pinhal with your buddies or other half!
Liam Wall
great course in good condition
David Taylor
Pretty, but challenging course. Most fairways narrow and lined with umbrella pines.
Very nice staff and facilities.
Aidan William Lavender
Course in great condition in all aspects - greens especially and they were quick. Lovely practice facilities. Pleasant veranda overlooking practice area and course. Great days golf at just under £100 each. ( we didn’t hire buggies - quite a few walks between holes so if you are not up for this then hire them. Pretty flat mainly apart from 2 par 5s uphill).
Klaus Schmidt
Nice course in very goog condition. The best course of the Pinhal courses we played.
Andy Whelan
Brilliant service turned up to the course and everything was prepared for us as booked
Tim Browne
Good course, excellent service, a grand day out
Carole Massicotte
service at the store, explanation on the phone were clear and informative. We did use the system and everything went very well.
Mark Brewer
The course was in excellent condition. All the staff were professional, very helpful and accommodating. A great round of golf for all 8 of us.
Clive Sims
Enjoyed the course and is in good condition. Staff very good.
John Ryan
Very nice but challanging
Marc Goumans
course was good, driving range and putting/chipping fine. restaurant OK
Ted Johnson
Interesting/challenging (lots of stone pine trees) course in great condition. Small greens (in good condition and running nice and quickly) are an interesting and different challenge. Excellent pace of play (3hrs), although there were just the two of us and we were first out before a big storm.
Peter Nield
Booked a time online with buggy at the course the staff member said they didn't take bookings for buggies on line, they had to phone tee times up to confirm booking.
Tee times did refund me 17 euro due to it being a Twilight booking, thanks
Sam Wade
Course in fantastic condition especially the greens, probably the best it has been in the 9 or 10 years we’ve been playing here.
Some of the tees could do with some maintenance to be ultra critical.
