on Thu, 2nd Jul 2020 This was an absolute jem! I have been lucky enough to play on some of the nicest courses on the Algarve over the last 20 years but have never played at Silves - silly me! I have to say the this has gone to position 2 on my West Algarve list (Penina no.1 with Morgado now at no.3). In great condition (thanks no doubt to coninued maintnance during C-19 lockdown) and a very fair, open and forgiving course for 21 handicappers like me. One hole is just under 600 yards (520 ladies) which is an absolute monster! Clubhouse / 19th appears to be very new. Loved it and great value too! |

on Mon, 20th Jan 2020 January golf trip to Carvoeiro We really enjoyed our first visit to Silves Golf last Friday. We picked a good day as the new club house had just opened and there was great excitement. We got a very nice welcome from the staff and all four of us thoroughly enjoyed the course, nice wide fairways and very playable for all levels. We also enjoyed Gramacho and Pinta on Monday and Wednesday. Thank you Chrissie and James for organising same. Jordan Family Ireland |

on Mon, 7th Oct 2019 Good course. We booked Silves on a bit of a whim as well as wanting to play somewhere different. I liked the different elevations to some of the holes which made you think what you was going play. The course itself is situated in the middle of nowhere but it’s very well kept and in great condition. Would consider playing here again. |

on Mon, 23rd Sep 2019 Early morning time. No hold up so easy 3 hour round. Course in good condition although be prepared for heavy overnight watering if playing early. |

Rob
from United Kingdom
on Tue, 17th Sep 2019 Good solid Algarve course Nice course. Let down by slow play on the day from 5 consecutive 4 balls. Could do with a few more water features and for the money water should be included in the price or the buggy hire. |

on Tue, 15th Jan 2019 Enjoyable golf course Many good holes, a few not so good. In good condition. You often have to wait on tee due to many par three holes. |

RICHARD
from United Kingdom
on Mon, 5th Nov 2018 Silves Lovely course but very slow. Didn't seem to be enough time between spaces so nearly 5 hour round and 2 group wait on some of the par 3s. 70 euros to hire buggy and 1 set of clubs which I thought expensive |
|
Paul
from United Kingdom
on Mon, 29th Oct 2018 Good holiday course Very remote location but the Sat Nav found it OK albeit having gone down some very minor roads. The course was very nice with wide fairways & playable rough. Slightly scruffy greens. A lot of walking green to tee so a buggy is a good idea. |
|
Tony
from United Kingdom
on Sat, 22nd Sep 2018 Disappointing! Tee time changed from booking on arrival at Club leaving no time for lunch. Facilities average at best. Course layout and condition ok but pace of play poor. Too many non-golfers “playing” with no respect for those with handicap certificates. No towels available for a shower topped off a disappointing experience. |

on Wed, 15th Aug 2018 Good Course in fantastic condition Good course in fantastic condition, especially as it's fairly new. The fairways are probably the best I have played on and the tees and greens are not far behind. Not a particularly long course but many holes are reasonably tight and you have to think your way round. The 470 mtr par 5 13th is a fantastic hole with an elevated tee looking down on a fairway that winds around a large lake. It's a must play!! |

on Thu, 28th Jun 2018 Great course friendly staff Great course in superb condition, my pick of the Pestana courses. Wide fairways but positioning is vital.....some scary bunkers! All in all great course great clubhouse and great value for money |

on Fri, 22nd Jun 2018 First time playing Silves Golf Course Well maintained and quite a picturesque course with no treacherous hazards or challenges. Not alot of shade as the trees are not mature enough. Overall we’ll come back to play for sure. |

on Mon, 12th Feb 2018 Silves Golf Course try not to play after Seniors Q Silves golf courses has some of the most scenic golf holes in the Algarve it was bit of a shame that the greens were not as good. It probably down to the hammering they took during the Staysure Seniors Tour practice and Qualifying rounds the previous week. They had been shaved and they were trying to get them back with lots of water and fertiliser. When i started my round the greens were soaking wet and covered with dry fertiliser that was a bit like putting over large grains of sand and as the sun dried out the greens short puts became a bit of a lottery. But I kept saying to myself at least the sun is shining, I could be at home in the rain. |

on Tue, 3rd Oct 2017 Silver golf Played this twice in the week. Good fair test of all golfers. Facilities are being improved so some building in process but not detrimental. Staff very helpful. Some areas on the fairways are wearing and greens need improvement but very playable |

on Sun, 24th Sep 2017 portuguese clubs are getting greedy Silves used to be a pleasant experience but obviously getting greedy. Arrived today for a 2.05 tee time, but did not get away until 3pm. First nine took 2 hrs but second nine took 3.5 hrs due to the heavy traffic put out earlier in the day. Lucky to get in before sundown. Portugal is losing its attraction - too many providers charging high prices for a poor experience of waiting at every hole. |

|
Jon
on Fri, 15th Sep 2017 Mixed feelings Some fantastic holes and scenery, especially the 14th signature hole but there is building machinery and materials on view too which should be reflected in the pricing.... also 5 hours for a round when using buggies is far too long... needs on course marshals if they continue to let beginners play |
|
Stephen
from Portugal
on Tue, 12th Sep 2017 Wonderful panoramic par 5's This course has some wonderful holes especially the par 5's, which have great views and wide fairways, not as long as some on the Algarve which makes it more playable, the wind can make up to two clubs difference, so something for even the better players to contend with. |

Carl

on Sun, 10th Sep 2017 Silves Half decent. Not to the standards of other courses near by. As it pestina and the prices they charge I would have expected better |

Siene

on Fri, 19th May 2017 Silves golf is a good course, not to difficult because the fairways are very broad and wide, there not that many trees. So it is a fair deal. The course is well kept and the greens are in splendid condition. The guy at the bar did not come to the terrace to take an order but when ordering at the bar he did ask for a tip.... Directions could be better. |

Gavin
from United Kingdom
on Wed, 10th May 2017 Better than expected Better than I was expecting, usual 5 hr round, stuck behind a stag doo/outing of absolute hackers with no knowledge of golfing etiquette but course exciting to play with some great holes right through the course. Club house had a very local feeling about it, quite 'British' in a way which wasn't what we were expecting but nothing to complain or agree with. |

Geoff
on Mon, 12th Sep 2016 Silves for a fair game Second time our group have played this course. It is an excellent course, testing but fair. If you hit a good drive you are rewarded, wayward and you normally pay a penalty. Good greens, manicured fairways and well positioned tees. |

Peter
from Portugal
on Tue, 21st Jun 2016 Busy course good golf Having had to take raincheck on our original booking. Word of advise, find out when ladies day is and avoid it. We were a 10.00am teeoff but only if the 40 plus lady members had all gone. They hadn't. All of them walk the course we it's along walk. After they had all gone we were behind a group of young lads on a stag. Still the worse for wear and some who confessed to never having played golf. We opted to reschedule and got out Sunday at 7.30. With no real pressure it as a good test of golf with some lovely holes. Worth playing but it does get very busy so I'd check carefully before opting. |
