on Sun, 27th Oct 2024 Really enjoyable. Greens difficult to read. Fairways and greens in good condition. Will definitely play again. |
Simon
from Portugal
on Fri, 25th Oct 2024 Great course, good condition, slow play We really enjoyed our round at Alamos. The staff were great and the course condition was far better than expected given the water shortage in the Algarve. I'm really looking forward to playing the course again (much better fairway grass than other courses in the area). My only issue was the pace of play - some positive marshalling was needed as somewhere up the queue of groups, someone was playing slow and needed to be moved on as we were stacked. |

Falk

on Fri, 11th Oct 2024 Very slow play, Bad Customer service Unfortunately, very slow play and no course marshal around. Quit our round at hole # 10 where 2 other groups were waiting. Lady at the front desk did. Not even care to listen to our complaint |

Ulrike

on Sun, 29th Oct 2023 Sehr enttäuschend Alamos Der Platz ist das Geld nicht wert. Kein einziges Fleckchen Grün auf den Fairways. Die Grüns waren ok. Dem Personal waren die Gäste wohl nur lästig. |
Ben
from United Kingdom
on Fri, 27th Oct 2023 Álamos in the rain Brilliant course highly recommend but when we played we had torrential rain and the course was flooded in 20 minutes and had to give up after 6 holes |
bryan
from United Kingdom
on Thu, 12th Oct 2023 Greens good but fairways have no grass Probably would be a nice course if there was grass on the fairway. First hole a perfect drive straight down middle for it to keep rolling all way down into the rocks . Not how you want to start. Playing partner hit straight down middle of fairway on 3 other holes and because it was so sparse it was like a pin ball machine a nd the ball nowhere to be seen. Also very long walk between holes. |

Martin
from United Kingdom
on Mon, 2nd Oct 2023 Autumn outing to the Algarve We loved this course and returned having played it last year. The tees and greens were lovely but the fairways were burned to a crisp. The lake by the 1st was empty and dry as a bone, as were all the streams and ponds even the reservoir, I think it's by the 9th was completely empty. I pray the the coming months bring rain to the Algarve. |
edward

on Fri, 22nd Sep 2023 would miss it off my play list while the extent of the drought is appreciated the fairways are just dust in many places |

on Wed, 20th Sep 2023 Not Much Fun Again it took 4:45 hours to play. Course was dried out. Greens were good. Not much fun. I feel for the owners as there isn't any water |
John
from United Kingdom
on Mon, 18th Sep 2023 Alamos Great course, greens were the best we've played on! Staff were helpful and made it easy for us. Excellent practice area and lovely course to play. Would suggest buggies are a must, quite hilly and few holes was a distance between green to next tee box. Very pleased with our visit. |
Giles
from Ireland
on Wed, 12th Jul 2023 Alamos Review. If I could give it less I would. The staff are really nice there but that's about it. The course is by far the worst I've ever in my life played. The fairways were like concrete and not a patch of grass on them. The golf clubs we hired are the same clubs from 6 years ago. Absolutely brutal. |

Dieter
from Canada
on Thu, 8th Jun 2023 Empfehlenswert. Etwas herausfordernd, aber gut zu spielen. Es war eine sehr entspannte Runde, denn es sehr wenig Betrieb. Viele bevorzugen den Morgado Course, der Alamos steht ihm aber in nichts nach. Cart empfehlenswert. |
Josh
from United Kingdom
on Sat, 25th Feb 2023 Shocking One of the worst golf experiences I have ever had! Firstly it is way over priced for what you get, the clubs they give you for rental are 30 years old and it’s not a complete set. Secondly, the play is so slow and nobody lets you through, would have easily been a 5 hour round and thirdly the staff there are so rude! I would never come here again and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. |
Mikko
from Finland
on Tue, 27th Dec 2022 December golf Course in great condition, friendly service and a lovely environment. The distances between holes are the longest I have ever seen, I would not play here without a buggy. It was fun to play and getting a good deal (two players buggy 1 set for just under 200 euros) means I am not disappointed, even though ithe course is not that special. |
Michiel
from Portugal
on Sat, 17th Dec 2022 Very challenging course, with beautiful scenery Very challenging course, with beautiful scenery. Because the holes are very forgiveness as long as you stay on the fairway. Outside the fairways you can’t find your ball anymore, because of high grass and low growing butter flowers. |
Les

on Mon, 21st Nov 2022 Fairways a bit worn in places but overall condition good with very good greens. |
Claude

on Tue, 8th Nov 2022 Belle journée Nous avons été bien reçu par le personnel à notre arrivée. Le terrain est en assez bonne condition malgré le manque d’eau, les allées sont bien et donne beaucoup de roulement . Les verts sont très bien, beaucoup d’ondulation et c’est assez difficile d’en faire une bonne lecture. La vitesse de verts est bonne mais pas très rapide. En général nous avons bien apprécié notre journée. |
Jamie
Willacy
from United Kingdom
on Tue, 25th Oct 2022 Better courses out there Quite a forgiving course for a casual golfer but my god its a trek. No buggies available when we played and felt like miles between holes. Play a bit rushed and generally the course was a bit too busy. We got teamed up with another 2-ball which I suppose is common but we paid a fortune for the experience with green fees, club & trolley hire so we should have been given the choice. No where near as organized as other courses and felt like they were just getting as many round as they could. Sorry wouldn't play there again. |
Susan

John
from United Kingdom
on Sat, 17th Sep 2022 Still playable after very long summer You have to take into consideration the drought that this area has experience this year in particular. Yes the majority of the fairways were burnt and without grass but you could not fault the greens or tee boxes which the course openly says they have to prioritise as both dams are dry The course has the felling of being quite compared to others due to the design it’s a pity we did not get the chance to play in its glory as some of the holes would have been stunning. |
Nigel
from United States
on Wed, 29th Jun 2022 3 old gits and a young one back in the Algarve We love this course, actually far more that its sister course, Morgado. Alamos has some interesting holes, the views of the Monchique mountains are lovely, it's a challenge for medium and high handicaps, and it's usually very quiet (because most visitors to the region opt for Morgado. They don't know what they're missing! |
Alan
from United States
on Mon, 27th Jun 2022 3 Putting my way to the clubhouse. The course was fairly difficult but the greens were extremely difficult. They undulated, sloped, and ran on some from a front to back pitch. Very hard to land the ball on the green and keep it there. |

on Wed, 15th Jun 2022 Alamos golfing experience My favorite course played it twice and a great challange each time. It was in great condition considering how dry it is, the greens were fantastic, a real challange for both speed and reading. Staff were excellent very friendly and helpful, I would definately recommend if your in the vicinity. |

Richard

on Sat, 4th Jun 2022 Confidence booster course! Was better than expected! There were reviews of slow play but I few through the course. The conditions were good except for most greens were slower than we would like! Shorter course big confidence booster is not a long hitter but most hit it straight on its narrow fairways |
Tim
from United Kingdom
on Tue, 10th May 2022 May 2022 Course in good condition but play was exceptionally slow and the groups in front were not monitored. 5 hours to get round.!! Good quality club hire and very friendly welcome at both check in and at the start. Would definitely play this course again .Its a challenge but enjoyable |

Felix
from United States
on Wed, 30th Mar 2022 ? Leider in einem schlechtem Zustand. Das Personal war zudem nicht sehr freundlich. Keine Begrüßung,keine Verabschiedung. Das Übungsgrün war überhaupt nicht zu gebrauchen da das Fairway nicht bewachsen war. Der Kurs ist interessant aber hat auch weite Wege. Bitte nur mit Buggy wenn man nicht gut zu Fuss ist. In meinen Augen gibt es wesetlich bessere Clubs an der Algarve(Hcp:9.0). |
Richard
from United Kingdom
on Sun, 27th Mar 2022 Worth playing Very good course and in good condition when we played in March ‘22. The layout is great, as were course conditions with the greens in particular well -presented Slightly more challenging than the sister course and well worth a visit. |

Andy
from Canada
on Fri, 19th Nov 2021 Worst course so far A 5 hour 15 minute round with no rangers in sight. Awful! To add to that misery all the on course washrooms were locked, so not a very friendly course for ladies. Will not be back. |
Roger

Andrew

on Mon, 1st Nov 2021 Superb condition, great greens and fairways. Play was slow on the day though but that is similar with all courses at that time of year. |
Mark
from Ireland
on Mon, 25th Oct 2021 Alamos Course Very friendly and helpful staff. Course was a little rough around the edges. Not much help in terms of distances when on fairways. Very acceptable greens in good condition. The pathways for the buggy’s were a little dangerous in some areas due to unfinished surfacing. All in all a very enjoyable days golf. |
Lena
Bohman
from Sweden
on Wed, 13th Oct 2021 Too slow! I agree-a marsall is necessary! Very,very slow today! We had to wait at least 10 min on each tee! After 14 holes we gave up, so far we had played for 4 hours and 20 minutes. The condition is not good: very bumpy roads, fairways and greens could be better. |
Jenneke
from Netherlands
on Sat, 2nd Oct 2021 Where is the Marshall …. The course needs a Marshall…. Slow play by Britts with hangover. Shame because course is nice and well kept. |
Lesley
from United Kingdom
on Mon, 27th Sep 2021 Alamos not at its best The course was in poor condition and I found the buggy paths a problem. I have a knee injury which means I need a buggy and with the “entrance “ to the fairway the best part of 200m from the . This meant I had to walk some considerable distance on each hole. I admit I didn’t ask if I could have a blue flag ( I have had this previously at Boavista) which would have allowed me more access to the fairway. I have played Alamos before and the set up was different and the course was in much better condition- not sure I would go back |
Stephanie
from Portugal
on Wed, 2nd Jun 2021 Challenging for a beginner like me Quite a tricky course for me being an inconsistent golfer but I would go again as it was very enjoyable and the scenery is stunning. Very well maintained fairways and greens. |

on Wed, 16th Oct 2019 Alamos 87.50 for a course that’s v average and in poor nick! Greens have an issue of some kind. Tees brought very forward...... holding up play even more as one waits for some par 4s greens! Course generally in poor nick/ v dusty turf. |
Keith
from United Kingdom
on Fri, 11th Oct 2019 Don’t bother..... Despite teeing off on time, it took 3.5 hours to play just 12 holes and it completely ruined the game and we walked off. Far too many groups playing. The groups in front of us were playing Texas scramble which should be quick but they were holding us and others up on every hole. The marshal said he would sort it out but nothing improved. We complained to reception but they wasn’t interested. |
David
Bigelow
from United States
on Sun, 29th Sep 2019 Bigelow Group Review Obviously a well designed course, visually pleasing and challenging, but was in poor repair the day we played it. Dry in many places, several greens had patchwork of new turf that had not been rolled correctly. We were especially disappointed that no one mentioned the toilets on the back nine were out of order - with no alternative provided - not good for the ladies in our group. |

Brendan
from United Kingdom
on Wed, 18th Sep 2019 A nice course with some interesting holes. They had suffered with a lack of rain this summer which meant that some of the fairways were a little brown, which didn’t affect the golf and the course gave us a free drink due to this which was a nice touch! A good course with plenty of character. |
Freddie
from Ireland
on Tue, 17th Sep 2019 Terrible Played 13 Sept. terrible condition. No grass anywhere but for a few greens. Stay away from it. Treated poorly by staff as a EuropeanTour event on. We paid too much to be treated that way. |
