on Sun, 6th Oct 2024 Lovely course with wide fairways Lovely course with fabulous wide fairways. Quite a few slopes up and down the course but manageable with my electric trolley. Greens were well kept too. Would definitely book this course again. |

on Sun, 22nd Sep 2024 Lovely course good condition a decent challenge just wish people would repair their pitch marks same old problem with most courses |
Paul
from Portugal
on Fri, 20th Sep 2024 Too busy Nice course, far too busy with bad golfers. Need to extend time between tee offs if handicaps not required. |
Martin
from United Kingdom
on Sun, 15th Sep 2024 Early morning at Silves This is will be one of our go-to courses on future visits to the Algarve.We had an 07:48 tee off time so the check in process and getting the buggies was very efficient. Our WHS handicaps ranged from 10 to 25 and it was challenging for all: The course was forgiving in places but you also had to think about club selection - we had a very windy day! It was our first visit and the signposting between holes was good. The only downside were occasional unrepaired pitch marks on greens - but that is a general golfing problem. |

on Thu, 15th Aug 2024 Definitely worth a visit Good test and course is fairly good condition. Very nice club house and friendly staff. |
Greg
from United Kingdom
on Wed, 26th Jun 2024 No buggies available Our tee time was delayed by 45mins as there was a shortage of buggies. This meant those with latter times than us and not needing buggies were let on before us resulting in a very slow round. Would recommend teeing off in the morning rather than lunchtime onwards to guaranteed buggies. |
Karl

on Mon, 24th Jun 2024 One of the better Pestana courses, it was in reasonable condition and staff were nice. Always like playing Silves đ |
Andy
from United Kingdom
on Thu, 20th Jun 2024 Enjoyable afternoon 2 ball Good mix of holes and the summer special deal is decent value. Very windy when we played which only added to the fun. Course in good condition apart from too many pitch marks. Greens are not ridiculously quick but enough slopes to make you look silly if youâre not on it with the putter. As a 2 ball choose your tee time carefully as pace of play can be very slow. Fortunately the 4 ball in front allowed us to play through which isnât always the case. Practice putting green and warm up net are an afterthought. Staff very friendly, all in all very enjoyable. |

on Thu, 25th Apr 2024 Silves ( MOT1919 if you know you know) ) Two high handicapped players. Challenging. Wide fairways. Hazards are well thought and not numerous . Hired clubs and buggy. Service a tad formal but everyone helpful. Play it you'll love it |
Mark
from Portugal
on Thu, 25th Apr 2024 SILVES PORTUGAL Challenging but very fair. Wide fairways , purposefully placed infrequent hazards, a small number of undulations don't impact on shots.....you're not chasing your ball up hill and down dale. Thoroughly enjoyable. Play it you'll love it. |
Conny

on Fri, 12th Apr 2024 Very good course Great course. Good quality. Not that difficult, but two challaging par 3's. Easy to walk. The starter gets 10 out of 10 |
Gary
from Germany
on Tue, 9th Apr 2024 Miss the Driving Range A course in a beautiful environment and excellent shape. Perfect fairways and greens amongst old olive trees. Weâll play again though it has very short holes, that makes it less challenging. However: no chance for a warm up, as there is no driving area and a ridiculously small putting green. Thatâs the only disadvantage. |

on Sat, 11th Nov 2023 Course is nice. Nice surroundings and you can easily walk. Unfortunatly play was extremely slow. We had to wait like 10-15 min on every hole. |

Shane
from United Kingdom
on Mon, 16th Oct 2023 Play Somewhere Else. I would strongly recommend anyone considering playing here to not do so. After being told to come back closer to our tee time in order to hire buggies, we were then informed there were none available. Out on the course we walked in after 9 holes as it had taken 3 hours! No course marshal, and no interest from anybody in the professional shop when we explained the situation. Awful experience. |

Anita
from Portugal
on Sun, 23rd Jul 2023 Silves Golf in July Great course, ok condition, quite long transitions. Unfortunately a factory near by smoked heavily and the direction of the wind brought thick smoke with burning smell into the course (holes 5 - 11). Perhaps we were just unlucky that morning. |
John
from Ireland
on Thu, 29th Jun 2023 Great course apart from the smoke Great course but we were smothered with smoke for 6 holes on the front 9 from the adjoining factory so quite unhealthy and very unpleasant. Lucky I had a mask with me but the smoke still got through. Our clothes still smelled of smoke when we got back to our lodgings. |
Karl
from United Kingdom
on Thu, 29th Jun 2023 Silves was a joy to play, it was everyone favourite course of the 4 we played. We will definitely be going back there next June. |
Philipp
from Portugal
on Tue, 27th Jun 2023 Not worth the costs Unfortunately we cannot rate this course too high. Nevertheless, we start with the positive parts: - great greens, extremely difficult, but in very good condition - nice course in general Negative parts: - unfortunately all the staff (including starter, ladies at the entrance, bartenders) was not friendly, not helpful and even impatiently) - at the first 9 holes there was constantly a tough smell and smoke coming from a factory - fairways were not in a perfect condition - there is NO driving range, one putting green is in a bad condition â> in general the course is OK but it is definitely not worse the price in comparison to other (close around!) courses. We would not come here again. |

Robert

on Fri, 10th Mar 2023 Best value to date. A really nice course; makes up for lack of length with being a little tight. Holes allllay out in front of you with a minimum of blind shots. Conditions were good. Our best Algarve golf experience to date!! |

on Sat, 29th Oct 2022 tee time to late Course good. However, our tee time (at 14.46) was too late given that there were 2 fourballs ahead of us who were very slow. We attempted to play the last 3 holes in total darkness but with little success. |
Greg
from United Kingdom
on Fri, 28th Oct 2022 greta course as ever Course was in a great condition and as ever thoroughly enjoyed the challenge. We managed to play 18 holes with our twilight time however there were long waits on the back nine. |

Alistair
from United Kingdom
on Sun, 2nd Oct 2022 East course but awful slow play A fairly short course so suitable for higher handicappers but dreadfully slow pace of play and industrial factory nearby spewing out toxic smoke fumes across the course very unsightly and off putting. We gave up after 13 holes having taken nearly 4 hours to that point due to slow play in front. Nice club house. |
MARK
from United Kingdom
on Mon, 26th Sep 2022 Booking chaos - great golf though. There was a mix up with the booking, the email confirmation showed the correct date but the PDF voucher was incorrect. Fortunately there was an alternative T time available so we still got to play. Course generally in very good condition with only a couple of greens needing closer attention. Some challenging holes with big elevation changes, wide fairways so driver can be used without fear. I hope to play it again one day. |
Simon
from Portugal
on Sun, 25th Sep 2022 Silves Golf Course This was the first time I have played this course and it was very good. I have played most of the golf courses in the Algarve and this would be in my top 10. Off the course I would suggest that the prices in the clubhouse are too high. I was at the old course the following day and ordered a large coke Zero. it was 3.5euros. A medium (small in my view) coke Zero at Silves was 5 euros. |
Dermot

Robert
from Portugal
on Thu, 11th Aug 2022 Course great but 19 th hole closed early Course is lovely. Tee time was 2.42 and course was quiet so no pressure from behind. Beautiful club house BUT very disappointed as when finished our round at 6.20 pm and went in for a drink and sit on the deck to enjoy the view we were told they had closed the bar early (not meant to close till 7 pm) as the staff had to go and work at the Gramacho course. |
Erik
from United States
on Sun, 7th Aug 2022 Great course ⊠Course is great. I like the views. Iâm afraid the course will be ruined by all real estate developments that are planned. The staff is fantastic. The greens consistent. Compared with a few years ago the course got easier due to cleaning up a lot of the rough. I like Silves. After my relocation to The Algarve later this year, I join either Silves or Espiche as my home course. |
Robert
from Portugal
on Tue, 28th Jun 2022 Family Golf round Lovely round at Silves. Club house staff friendly, the best we have experienced in the area and very welcoming. Challenging course with some excellent holes. The 12th in particular a specially well designed hole and picturesque. We look forward to playing there again on our next visit to the Algarve. |

John
from United Kingdom
on Sat, 11th Jun 2022 We arrived 30 mins before our tee off time the course was fully booked and they had no details of our booking. We showed them all of the booking vouchers and confirmation of payment. After some time a manager turned up and spoke to someone on the phone and they arranged for us to play. In the end It was all a rather rushed experience the course was clearly overwhelmed with too many people and was a long day of queues |
Tim
from United Kingdom
on Wed, 1st Jun 2022 A lovely Course Great course in a lovely setting. A course that suite us a relative beginners but also a challenge for low handicappers. Staff were really friendly and helpful and there is a really nice bar and restaurant facility. The course was also great for spotting local bird life. Our only slight frustration was that the bar did close about 19.00 so was not open for people who were starting on twilight tee times. |

on Mon, 23rd May 2022 Rough Compared with other Pestana courses Silves is different, with very difficult rough and a lot of â high versus lowâ. A Nice test for a change. |
Gordon
from United Kingdom
on Mon, 16th May 2022 Nice Enjoyed everything about this - the staff at the shop were super friendly and helpful, good modern clubs (though graphite shafts on the irons may not be to everyone's taste). The clubhouse was neat and compact with nice view over the 18th hole. The course was in great condition with some tricky long par threes. A number of elevated tees give a great vista of the course, the views from the 13th and 14th tees were spectacular. Quite a distance between some greens and next tees which made having a buggy a real benefit. |

Rudolf
from Netherlands
on Wed, 23rd Mar 2022 Smoke alarm Heel mooie golfbaan, die met het nieuwe clubhuis wel aan aangename atmosfeer heeft ingeleverd. Ernstiger is de overlast van verstikkende rook van een nabijgelegen fabriek op vier of vijf holes. GeĂŻrriteerde luchtwegen, hoofdpijn en prikkende ogen als gevolg bij de hele flight. Onbegrijpelijk dat dit probleem niet wordt aangepakt, want het bederft een verder fantastische baan. |

on Fri, 21st Jan 2022 Frustrating The round was frustrating. It took 5 hours! Disappointing that Silves does not have a driving range, not even a pitching area ,just a small putting green! The course has several nice holes, but the par three holes are too difficult for average golfers. Three of them are uphill, between 170-195 meters. Not enjoyable! |
