on Mon, 27th May 2019 Excellent golf at a competitive price. Our 5th year back at Castro Marim and once more it didn't disappoint. Each of the 3 courses were in good condition and we played here over 3 days, playing each of the 9 hole courses 3 times. Clubhouse facilities are excellent and the staff are very welcoming. We will be back again next year to face the challenge of the Atlantic, the Guadiana and the Grouse courses. |

on Thu, 2nd May 2019 All of our party really enjoyed our games some tough driving holes but w all enjoyed the course lost a few balls. Possibly because we drank too much night before. All golfers were over 70 but you certainly need a buggie. |

on Tue, 23rd Apr 2019 15 holes ... twilight Very nice course and friendly and clear and helpful reception. Nice variation on the Grouse and Guadiana nines. Unfortunately we were politely (!) asked to cut 3 holes short to make it back before closing at 7 pm (we started a twilight at 3 pm and took shelter for the rain , assuming there was ample time before sunset around 8). Still, defenitely worth a revisit! |

on Wed, 13th Mar 2019 Guardiana & Atlaantic. Trickey courses and a bit difficcult to find our way around. We were with another couple for a while which helped. Your arrangements worked perfectfully. The problems we had were with the clubs we hired from the club itself. They were old and battered and the grips were appalling; badly maintained, slippery, shiny and and in some cases damaged. The buggy got us round, but was on its last legs and found the slopes a problem. Recommend the course but not the pro shop or equipment, for which we paid 50 euros to hire. |

on Tue, 5th Mar 2019 Great course Castro Marim Castro Marim is a really great course. We played two times and now we know all 36 holes. Challenging but not too much. The people are very kind. We are coming back, that for sure. |

on Thu, 24th Jan 2019 Castro Marim Golf Wonderful variety of holes, particularly the Guadiana. Played in very strong wind and fast, true greens proved very difficult in the conditions. Friendly welcome at course. Definitely will return. |

on Mon, 21st Jan 2019 Castro Marim sold out for the money Too many golfers who have no idea of the etiquette of golf. Waited 20 mins on the 3rd hole while the 2 ball in front played fishing for balls in the lake. You are turning away proper golfers, you need to police the handicap requirements. Doubt I will at Castro Marim again. It's a true shame |

on Wed, 29th Aug 2018 Castro marim golf 2018 Very nice course can be testing when the wind is blowing, but I have to compliment the greens staff. I play this course every year and the condition of the greens is always a sore point. But this year they are much improved keep up the top work. I will play again |

on Sun, 15th Jul 2018 Definitely worth playing....... Played Grouse and Guardina ..... quite different courses, greens in good condition, not easy courses for high h/c. Club house lovely, staff very good. Definitely worth a visit (at the right price ). NEED A BUGGY , |

on Thu, 21st Jun 2018 Poor maintenance I have played castro Marim many times and find it fun to play. This time the maintenance let them down big time. I accept it has to be done but the hollow tyning and dressing the greens left them almost unplayable. I've been on others that have been done that are nowhere near as bad as these. Also the fairways had been done but they hadn't cleared the debris away. I mentioned these problems in the clubhouse and they said we should have been informed but we weren't. |

on Mon, 21st May 2018 Challenging holiday course Played twilight from 1400 hours - good value. Course fairly empty only 'mad Englishman'! Did Grouse and Guadiana nines - need to drive ball well for some tight dog-legs. Holes 3 & 5, plus holes 3, 4 & 5 on respective nines very good. Greens rolled well, fairways decent. Clubhouse very pleasant, helpful caddie master, access to locker rooms, nearby driving range, and reasonable priced 19th hole |

on Thu, 17th May 2018 BGT 2018 Bransgore Golf Tour had a very enjoyable afternoon playing all three of the nine hole courses (Grouse, Guardinia and Atlantic). The courses and greens are in excellent condition with lots of variation and challenges, and an abundance of great scenery and views. Hilly courses, so buggies recommended. Excellent restaurant, bar and clubhouse. Thank you to Rita and to all the fabulously friendly staff that ensured we had an amazing day. Alun BGT 2018. |

Alastair

on Sun, 6th May 2018 Castro Marim Feedback First time at Castro Marim but we'll be back. Great challenge in wild countryside and natural lakes. We played the Grouse and the Guadiana. Very slick and fairly flat greens on the former and more lush but sloped greens on the latter. Probably an underrated course but we would certainly recommend a game here .... also got a great deal to include buggies. Buggies recommended as a few steep climbs. |

Frans

on Thu, 26th Apr 2018 Excellent golfing day at Castro Marim Excellent views, well maintained fairways & greens, many challenges. A buggy is “neccesary” if you want to finish with enough air 😉. Nice staff, very helpfull. What did we not like? - to pay € 3 for 22 balls on the driving range - rental clubs NOT in good condition |

Derek

on Fri, 13th Apr 2018 Castro Marim...fantastic variety, very fair and sp Excellent front 9, very fair and great variety of shots, the back nine which I think was the original front 9 was good, it was tougher, but just looked a bit different from the opening 9, but having said that it was very enjoyable. I loved the course, I loved the tee boxes, some were spectacular, overall I would love to play it again some day and comparing the prices of some other courses we played in Portugal and Spain which were more expensive and didn't come close to Castro Marin, the course was very good value. |

on Mon, 23rd Oct 2017 Picturesque club in the Hills Too hilly to walk. Some greens and fairways could be in better shape. Interesting layout with some challenging holes. No starters at the No. 1 holes, so golfers just tee off regardless of tee times. Enjoyable Golf |

Ben
on Sat, 21st Oct 2017 Castro Marim Friendly and organised reception desk, enjoyed a good breakfast before play in the modern and spacious clubhouse. Played Guardinia and Grouse nines which we always seem to get (never the Atlantic). Some greens were showing signs of extreme wear but otherwise the course was in good condition, didn’t think Buggy would make the whole 18 and it would be a long walk without one. Very much enjoyed our day. |

on Thu, 19th Oct 2017 Great Course, worth the drive Great looking course with some quite challenging holes,drove 50 minutes from villamoura but worth the drive , reasonably priced for 2 and a buggy, greens weren't in the best condition but still a good treck out. |

Tim
from United Kingdom
on Thu, 12th Oct 2017 Very disappointing visit. Very disappointing round of golf, buggies were old and tired the course was in very bad condition considering this is the meant to be their main season, tee boxes very shabby and greens full of disease, overall a waste of money. |

RAYMOND
from United Kingdom
on Sun, 8th Oct 2017 Course ok but our original booking was changed. We were allocated two of the three 9 hole courses - the Atlantic & Grouse. My son & I enjoyed playing the Atlantic as it was nicely tree-lined and contained some interesting holes. The Grouse was a bit too open and a bit boring or it may also be because of the slow play. I was disappointed that our original tee-time was changed from 12.05 to 13.15, due to what they said was an 'administrative error' on their part, as it disrupted our plans slightly for later in the day. Annoyingly, when we collected our buggy from the caddy master, his list had a different player named for the 13.15 time suggesting it had been changed deliberately. Other than this, the staff were excellent nd we enjoyed the experience. |

on Sun, 14th May 2017 High quality golf course. We played 18 out of 27 holes. Greens and fairways was well dressed and there were a great view from more or less all holes. Especially the view to The Spain border was amaising. Also the clubhouse and the service at the reception and in the restaurant was highly appriciated. We will come back. |

Charlie
from Portugal
on Thu, 30th Mar 2017 Great scenery, shame about the state of the course Played Atlantic-Grouse combination. Both courses were scenic hilly courses, tight but on the short side. Atlantic course was terribly scruffy whilst the Grouse course was in much better condition. Either the Club need to sack their Head Greenkeeper or give him a bigger budget to treat fairways and greens. The clubhouse was relatively luxurious suggesting the Management care more for the off course revenue than providing a well tended group of courses. Would visit again but may avoid the Atlantic 9. Didnt play the Gaudiano 9. |

on Tue, 1st Nov 2016 Castro Marim Groups Greens were in good condition, fairways a little soft but ok to hit from. Buggy brakes needed attention and worth checking these before going out as some steep cart paths. All in all an enjoyable day. |

on Mon, 10th Oct 2016 Nice course but be prepared to take all day... Nice course but VERY slow pace of play. We were a 2 ball and it took us 5 hours! We lost the will to live having to wait to hit every single shot. Couldn't wait to get off the course in the end, completely spoiled the experience for us, shame. |

on Mon, 26th Sep 2016 Hard but fair A tough course, where errant drives or approach shots received due penalty. The greens, apart from a couple early in our round on the Grouse, which were very dry, were receptive and putted well being true and even paced. I didn't play well, but that didn't detract from a totally enjoyable round on a beautiful course. |

Guy
on Mon, 22nd Feb 2016 Castro Marim I played Castro Marim with my son. The course was one of few to offer junior rate but still fairly expensive but better than many. We really enjoyed the Grouse Course and the Atlantic course was more difficult. Can be a problem when switching between the 9 hole courses. Still recommended and pleasant setting to play golf. |
