4 star for a nine hole course. Courses over ocean are breathtaking.

Beautiful Complex
Layout of course is very good and fun . At the moment course is not in great condition because of new drainage system but you can see it will be. Greens are very good . Club house is fantastic and all employees are very welcoming. Looking forward to playing again in September

It should be a very challenging par 3 course butâ€
I am very disappointed that this course had some issues today:

1. driving range closed for 5 weeks

2. hole 1 closed, under construction

3. hole 7 and 9 were adjusted ((shortened) and you had to figure that out yourself

4. No adjustment greenfee

Salgardos course work
Major work in progress so we’re limited to playing the same 9 holes twice. There was still a lot of unfinished work around the course, mainly turfing over new pipe work and drainage, it just looked a bit scruffy. The Greens were good but they have the same problems as the rest of the Algarve (Golfers not repairing pitch marks and divots) They say that all work will be finished by the 1st March I wish them well with that date.

Considering this is a par 3 golf course it is in great condition with a friendly atmosphere great clubhouse and a fun afternoon of golf

Value for.money indeed
Course was undergoing severe maintenance which is understandable so it was a bit of a mess. Greens were great though. Price for the 18 holes . .had to.play the back 9 twice . .was only €35 each which included the buggy so perfect for a practice round. €10 for the golf basically! Once it matures and gets sorted it will be good again. Clubhouse is nice . . .worth a visit when it's back to normal

Great course but get greens sorted.
Great course but some of the greens in bad shape. These corrected will make it excellent.

Driving Range a negative
We like the course. Shame there is just a tiny Driving Range where one even has to use its own balls shooting into the net. All other facilities very nice. Very friendly rangers (esp. the one guy that had been a cook befor, very professional and friendly). Fair Green Fee one has to state as well.

Course was excellent, very good condition and ideal level of challenge for our 4 ball, only disappointment was to be told we could not have buggies we had pre reserved. There had been rain over night. The course had a path the buggies could have kept to all the way around. Especially annoyed when the course marshall/caddie master was driving a buggy all over the course.

A really nice course, not too difficult and very enjoyable. Notable hole being the 6th which makes a challenging shot over a ravine . Enjoyed myself so much I returned the next day and played again

Guests loved it.😊
Took 3 others who had never played it before who loved it ( 2 off single figure handicaps ) i hadn’t played it for 11 years , very good condition and very picturesque , well organised and a good pace of round , 4 hours exactly for a 4 ball in Portugal is pretty good.

Showing signs of too much golf
Challenging course with lots of water greens and fairways showing signs of too many golfers 30 wait after tee time and sent off on the 10th

Played this as a filler course on our trip. Diseased greens but fairways etc were ok. Very slow.

Super petit 9 trou pas très long, sans grand danger à part le n°6. Convient à tous les niveaux

Very busy
Very busy course

How they can do tee times every 6 minutes ?

Overall lovely location and not a challenging course

Greens were poor, recently sanded and tee boxes were very worn.

Expensive for what was on offer but we enjoyed playing it.

Pine Cliffs on Sun, 6th Oct 2024
Poor condition.
Greens very untidy and the bunkers even worse having played there several times this was the worst I’ve ever seen the course.
Martijn from Netherlands
Pine Cliffs on Fri, 4th Oct 2024
Par 64 with nice views. Long long waits because they let people without a golf permit on the course. Lack of golf etiquette knowledge. Pitch marks, unraked bunkers etc.

Over 5 hours round not good

not the best
Too many people , the course needs to not book as many golfers. Great course just under 6 hours to get round
Will Tunnacliffe from United Kingdom
Balaia on Tue, 20th Aug 2024
Great for beginners
Not a bad little course for a 9 holer. I brought my son here as he’s a real beginner and based on everybody else playing there that day I’d say that’s what it caters for. But particularly cheap but to be fair it had 2 or 3 very nice holes on it and the greens were pretty decent. Friendly little clubhouse with reasonable prices bar/restaurant. Definitely not the place for serious golfers but good for what it is.

Balaia golf
Not as clear on the advert that’s it’s a par 3 course. I would book 18 holes in a par 3 course, but just 9 holes.

Pine cliff golf
Excellent beautiful 9 holes.

Lovely staff in the golf shop.

Playing 18 holes causes trouble when you go on to the 11th hole. It clashes with golfers teeing off hole 1, who feel you are disturbing their near tee time.

Very good course good quality irons great club house

Will be back again

Challenging little course, disappointed that it is not defined as a pitch and putt as longest hole is only 160 metres. Also, we were not able to book only for the 9 holes, but had to book for 18.

Played this course two years ago, condition was slightly better when played previously. Such a fun course to play, tricky layout, had a great day.

Highly recommended
Highly recommend this course for any ability of golf you have, I play off a 17 handicap some holes are trickery than others but in general a nice and amazingly beautiful course, amazing setting. Algarve golf.net took care of everything for me and unbelievably quick. Be prepared to spend a bit more money on balls,glove,tees unless you have been clever and brought your own. 5 stars all day long

Not the best to initiate
Not adequate for beginners at all. Very short game focused but not very forgiving at all. Quite confusing organisation of tees as well…
Peter from Portugal
Balaia on Mon, 22nd Jul 2024
A nice relaxed course great for beginners. Went for the all in one package but this didn’t include balls. Be prepared to pay for some brand new balls or else bring some with you

Nice course.... Bring plenty of balls!
The first course of our trip and a really enjoyable start. A well maintained, interesting and challenging course (especially the Par 5's when the wind gets up) with water on every hole. The staff were really friendly and welcoming too. Would definitely return to play Salgados in future

Beautiful 9 hole course, well maintained greens but this is only a 3/4 par course.

Salgados on Mon, 1st Jul 2024
Good course
Like every year we play a round there and again the course was in great condition.

Sadly enough, money rules(green fees) and there are people on the course that really don’t belong there… they might be more comfortable in a pub

Challenging course with loads of water (bring plenty of balls) but a real pleasure to play. Greens are lightning fast and well maintained. Staff were excellent and extremely friendly. Will definitely be back.

Pine Cliffs on Thu, 27th Jun 2024
The devils hole was fun with some other good holes to play, but there were many holes that were quite dull and a bit of a let down. Probably wouldn’t return for 9 holes again
Kai from United Kingdom
Salgados on Thu, 27th Jun 2024
Enjoyable course and very tricky with water hazards everywhere. However as the holes were all very close together, we were only sometimes aware where the green was by looking at the group infront of us. Overall I really enjoyed though and would recommend

Excellent!
Brilliant par 3 course, very challenging. Hire clubs were more than satisfactory. Would recommend to bring your own golf balls however as this racked up an additional cost.

- no driving range & pitching / putting area not well maintained

- Restaurant was not in a way setup to have a beer after the round (not even sun screens provided)

- course badly maintained

- thats a shame as the location would be great

Yeah course
good course but bring your own clubs the rental ones are terrible and definitely the reason I played bad

What a hole is for the number 6
We arrived in the afternoon on Monday, the 9 hole course was perfect in terms of time. The course itself is relatively short, with generous fairways (still had 2 blobs through). The highlight was in the signature hole (number 6), a 5 iron landed in the back of the green, a chipping and a putt for a par. The scores for four of us were 3, 3, 4 and 4, not bad at all. A very enjoyable course.

Salgados on Thu, 16th May 2024
Quality course.
Second time I have played the course. Very busy (May) and the club certainly crammed the golfers in. Had cart, pace of play was good. Lots of water, tight fairways, quality of fairways and greens good

Would play the course again, but maybe an afternoon tee time.

Pine Cliffs on Thu, 16th May 2024
Great for the older golfer.
Nice course suitable for the older golfer. I believe you need to allow time for the round, as you do wait at the tee most times. However, I enjoyed the game. Note I thought the club house drinks/meals a little pricey.
John from United Kingdom
Balaia on Thu, 16th May 2024
Tricky little course.
Thought it would be simple easy par 3s. To be honest it was tricky in parts, but really enjoyable. Great for your short game. Nice welcoming club.

Balaia on Tue, 7th May 2024
Great Warm up place
Is only a pitch and putt par 3 - 9 holes completed twice, so dont mistake for a full on golf course, no buggies available, and the club house closed at 6.

Course wise, is lovely, although short its nicely challenging with a range of greens, and water and bunkers. We used this as a little practice round and was perfect for that.

Only 4 stars as the bar was closed at the end :)

Great course and facilities
Course in great condition and really fast greens. Lots of water on the course but only really in play from wayward shots so not as difficult as you might imagine.
