on Thu, 16th Feb 2023 2nd best dom Pedro course Brilliant course, green and fairways spot on. Staff really nice, you got free water and tees which is a nice touch. Very very tough course, greens caught us out with how fast they are….. Worthy of the green fee. |

on Fri, 25th Nov 2022 It is quite simply a brilliantly designed course. Deceptively difficult. As the name would suggest, very well established and as such, it is always so pleasant on the eye. A must if golfing on the Algarve . |

on Sun, 20th Nov 2022 Classic Golf A classic course in good condition. Fairways and greens are fine, but approach areas near the greens are rock hard ... my pet peeve. As long as courses get no rest, can't see that this will change. Bunkers were well groomed. Players had repaired their pitch marks - bravo. Despite the few complaints it's a very enjoyable course, |

Gary

on Mon, 14th Nov 2022 Old course Course was in good condition, but layout, especially the first 5 holes is a dangerous shooting gallery. Expensive and don’t expect service of any kind. Not really a great golf experience |

|
Tim
from United Kingdom
on Fri, 21st Oct 2022 Good but needs TLC This is a good course dominated by savage trees that punish a misdirected shot. Fairways and greens excellent. I have scored it 4 stars because it’s a little scruffy in places. The cart paths are terrible, the tee boards are old and rotting and barely readable. There are raised logs on cart paths to stop you going on the fairways at certain points and these were tired and in a lot of cases had just collapsed. This in my opinion is unacceptable for the high green fee. We are returning to the Algarve in the new year and will not be playing this course. When you compare this course with Quinta do Lago (similar green fees) and Vale do Lobo(lesser green fees) there is no comparison. |

Taylor

on Tue, 11th Oct 2022 Thanks for but no thanks. The course was in ‘good condition’ took us 4 and half hours to get around. Course was like a tube of tooth paste , we were waiting on each tee 10 to 15 mins just to take a shot, the course was definitely over booked and very commercialised. How can the club charge €117 per person for a twilight tee off €30 for a buggy when they fully understand that they’re not going to finish that round. Hopefully they correct this for next season. |

on Sat, 8th Oct 2022 Quality course But..... Nice course with good greens in lovely condition, but a lot of holes were a bit the same. Found it a lot easier than I expected A’s course relatively short off yellows. Will definitely like to play it again which says it all but not sure it’s in the best 5 courses in the Algarve. |

on Sun, 18th Sep 2022 Very pretty and challenging. The course itself is nice. Good shape and very pretty. My big problem was the lack of information provided. I never knew any distances or where to hit my drives. Went through the fairways into the trees on almost every dogleg. |

on Tue, 28th Jun 2022 Challenging with tricky greens...and pricy The Old Course was in great condition and will test your green reading skills to the limit. Super variety of holes -this & Victoria rank as the best of this cluster of courses. However- prices far exceed Quinta & Vale de Lobo and I fail to see why. |

on Sat, 18th Jun 2022 Nice course and club but slow play Always in good condition but pace of play was incredibly slow. We were the first twilight group and were 100 mins behind the last tee time. We played the first 7 holes in 1 hour and it took 3 hours to play the last 11 holes. So a 5-5.5 hour round pace. Not good enough |

on Mon, 7th Mar 2022 A beautiful gem & must play course in Vilamoura. Aesthetically beautiful to the eye and a pleasure to play. A real test of accuracy & course management. Played early March and it was in a very good condition. First time visit, but safe to say, I’ll definitely be back again. It’s very up & down in elevation, so it’s well worth investing in a golf buggy. One minor little niggle… there needs to be a large net installed to separate the driving range from the 5th fairway, as there were practice balls everywhere. |

on Sat, 1st Jan 2022 Old is undoubtedly the best of Dom Pedro courses. Dom Pedro courses are generally nice and well planned. Care and finish are okay/good when it comes to greens and bunkers. Unfortunately, the feeling is of a weak commercial will as there are no offers on balls, no takeaway solutions for drinks / snacks / sandwiches. The restaurants have larger menus than they can handle and it does not feel like the owner has any sense at all of the service that a golfer appreciates. It seems more important to have a dry and non-commercial environment than a selling and for the golfer, well-thought-out service. |

Andy

on Fri, 3rd Dec 2021 Classic older course A classic older course. Good condition overall. Tricky greens with a fair bit of break on some. Lots of mature trees that can really get in your way if you don't find the centre of the fairway. Nice layout and hole design. Interesting. |
|
Jack
from United Kingdom
on Sun, 28th Nov 2021 Quality greens and hole design. Excellent greens, very true roll. I liked a lot of the shorter par 4's, you have to play sensible tee shots to leave a good chance in. Inviting first hole downhill, some great looking par 3's. You can see why this has held pro tournaments as from the tees looking out onto the fairways, the design is there to see. Bunkers immaculate, tees well used but good, lots of traffic over peak months. Fairways great. Would recommend! Walked with a trolley, some up and down bits so buggy may be more suitable if you don't like some walking up slope. Distance between tees not an issue, majority are close by. Greens and hole design stand out here. |

on Sun, 10th Oct 2021 Simply the best! We played a few courses during our stay but this one is by far the best course in Vilamoura. If you only play one course it has to be this one. The welcome was warm and very well organised. |

Jorge

on Thu, 7th Oct 2021 Poor Course Management I played as a 1 ball at the beginning of twilight hours (1545). The first hole was great--a two ball was finishing as I got ready to tee off. The second hole not so good. The two ball was in the middle of the fairway waiting for a 4 ball group to finish. By the fourth holeI had to wait 5-10 minutes at every tee box because the two four ball groups were constantly look for their balls. By the ninth hole the two ball in front of me were so frustrated they left. Four hours after starting my round I had to quit at the end of the 16th hole because the course closed. The two 4 ball groups still playing past the closing time as I walked up to the club house. The course marshal did not care that the two groups were holding up 4 groups behind them. The wait times were not worth the price I paid to play on the course. |

Very friendly staff.Unfortunately, we were disappointed by a large group of Englishmen (4 flights) who played very slowly and very poorly, so we had a lot of delay and eventually stopped earlier. |

on Tue, 13th Jul 2021 Great round of golf Very much enjoyed our 18 hole outing on the Old Course. The layout is challenging, with lots of narrow fairways placing a premium on driving accuracy. Not much water on the course, but plenty of ways to lose balls if you stray from the fairways. The course was in excellent condition from tee to green. |

on Mon, 21st Jun 2021 Course marshal missing I really love the Old Course - so beautiful and also challenging. Reason for the mediocre rating: there was ni course marshal on duty after 2 pm probably due to personnel problems - so the two of us were stuck behind a four-ballflight for 10 out if 18 holes - just incredible ignorant players!

on Sat, 15th May 2021 Top Algarve Course This classic course is the pearl of the Dom Pedro courses (Victoria is the championship course). We played it 5 times this year due to the non-opening of the other Dom Pedro courses, which allowed us to fine tune our strategy. Not that that made the course an easy play, but it did eliminate excuses for not playing well. The course is in good condition and the range is so improved from the Oceanico days. We did lose a couple of balls when hitting the trees LOL. |

on Thu, 29th Apr 2021 Probably the area's best Rated it a 5 taken in context of the area - it probably wouldn't be a 5 if compared to Pebble Beach. The course has benefitted from the improvements made since the takeover by Dom Pedro. The fairways were mostly nice and cushy (not much roll though). The greens were still lightly sanded, but seemed fine. Good pace of play even considering that it was the best booked course we've played on this trip. |

on Fri, 3rd Jan 2020 Visually one of the top courses A must course to play at least once. You feel an atmosphere of a real old course in the positive sense. A lady which you have to show respect and handle with care. Very fast greens, fairways sometimes too bold. Visually superb holes, especially the par-3's. Why did I a 4-star iso 5-star score: we made use of a buggy and were not allowed to use the fairways. In the morning with dawn, this feels reasonable, however after a while when the fairways are dry, this makes playing less comfortable then it could be |
