OConnor Golf Course

OConnor Description

The 18 hole O'Connor Golf Course is located very near to Amendoeira. Perfectly complementing the Faldo Course, whilst taking advantage of the rich valley soil, in contrast to the arid hillside, the O'Connor Course offers no less of a challenge, requiring accurate play. The front 9 holes encounter a number of lakes, the 3rd being recognised by a Moorish relic situated on a island in the adjacent lake. Holes 7, 8 and 9 offer a particular challenge, where the water hazards could force a lack of concentration. The hole number ten leads player away from the northern boundary, setting up the challenge for the inward nine.

Large bodies of water and meandering watercourses will test players all the way to the 18th. Assaulting the hillside in front of the clubhouse, this final hole will require players to drive with pinpoint accuracy to set up the approach shot to a two-tier green benched into the hillside.

Course Reviews

Kevin from Canada
service was average , course and course conditions were very good

Mr Smith

Robert from United Kingdom
Great course fair but hard, in great condition the day we played too, I don't think you will be disappointed with this course.

Fantastic course!

Adam from United Kingdom
Course was in fantastic condition - the fairways were like carpets and the greens were smooth and ran well. A fair test of golf with wide fairways and big greens but plenty of bunkers and water also. The buggies are very smart, but a little too smart at times, meaning you have to reverse out of places which is a slight inconvenience. Also great views from the 19th!
