on Sun, 22nd Oct 2023 Breezy ocean course Nice course but holes 2,3,4,5,6, seem out of sync with the rest of the course. Great back 9 with stunning holes next to ocean and played in difficult windy conditions. Missed the rain but the staff were there with towels to give to those poor souls who got caught in the heavy downpour which was great service. |

on Mon, 25th Sep 2023 Val do lobo ocean course - twilight Course in reasonable condition and just love the views! Greens were good . However , need to monitor handicaps - 3 ladies were 2 groups in front and looked like they’d never held a club. Thankfully they gave up after 10 holes! Twilight at 1530 was good value . |

on Sat, 23rd Sep 2023 WOW, Cracking Course Remember Your Camera. Wow what a fantastic set up they have at Valo do Lobo clubhouse, very efficient and helpful staff in reception and buggy station, great practice facilites. The course itself is a gem, remember to take a camera with you as you will play some fantastically laid out holes here with spectacular views. The course is in fantastic condition, many green maintenance staff in attendance fairways, bunkers, greens all faultless. The only issue as with many other holiday courses are the amount of unrepaired pitch marks on the greens, us golfers need to take a good hard look at ourselves with this and repair your pitchmarks...ok rant over. Buggys are all in a new condition, ice box and water supplied, the whole complex is great and the prices to play these courses are very competitive as you are playing a quality course. Can I also say that Algarve Golf are a fantastic company to book with, James Crawford was super helpful for the whole time we were there and could not do enough for us to ensure our stay and experience was 5 star. |

on Mon, 18th Sep 2023 Excellent course , but staff too strict on some rule. Actually we had golf sandals which are not permitted but never before showing up have we been advice of that rule. Actually golf sandals are accepted all over Arizona in courses as respectable as the Vale do Lobo. It was unfortunate that we had to buy golf shoes on site. Please advise in advance in the future and show a little bit of common sense of ever a foreign customer come up with something unusual. |

on Fri, 15th Sep 2023 Poor Greens Lovely layout especially down by the ocean. fairways in reasonable condition. However, greens terrible. Bare patches and dozens of unrepaired pitch marks. The course has been overplayed and unfortunately many people dont repair their pitch marks. |

on Thu, 17th Aug 2023 Nice Ocean views Some nice holes close to the ocean, very nice par 3 right in the beach. The rest is ok, many blind uphill tee shots. Some greens have many dry spots. Good deals in the afternoon, played in 3 hours as a twosome at 12:10. |

on Tue, 16th May 2023 Great, challenging course in beautiful condition. This course was in great condition. The greens are fast, if you are putting down hill, good luck. The Fairways are plush, the rough is thick and sand traps are soft. The course is challenging and very scenic as it has beautiful views of the ocean. I highly recommend this course. Bring your A game! |

Kathleen

on Tue, 18th Apr 2023 Well maintained With only a few small exceptions, the fairways were in wonderful condition .... not something most other courses in the area can boast of. The ladies tee boxes were also in good shape - so nice to be able to stand flat and not look down on hole after brown hole. Starting early, we finished play in just over 3 hours. It was a pleasure. |

Beautiful setting, perfectly groomed fairways and greens, interesting architecture(the course and the villas along the fairways) with at times spectaculare views. Enjoyable all around. The Restaurant completes the very positive experience. The driving range doesn`t do its name justice... |

on Tue, 21st Mar 2023 A great course! A course that lives up to its name. The one thing I don't understand about Vale do Lobo is that everything is top of the bill, except the practice facilities. Having said that, what a wonderful course! |

Tony
from Portugal
on Mon, 13th Mar 2023 Great course Great course and v.good condition. Unfortunately slow play has to be endured mainly due to people who are incompetent and likely not to have handicaps. One case: three buggies, 5 people, 5 sets of clubs!!! |

pallier
from France
on Tue, 28th Feb 2023 beautiful scenary but you need to take a buggy 4 golfers in february: beautiful golf course, with beautiful sea landscape especially on the back nine; but the course is long and with many slopes, so we advise to take buggies: we were walking and it was tiring, and with some stress because others players had buggy, so we had always the feeling to be slow, even if we finish the 18 holes in 4h30. |

on Mon, 20th Feb 2023 Needs maintenance Lots or rough patches on both some of the fairways and some of the greens. Not in the best of shape. Should be better given the price of green fees. Many blind shots which is not good the first/second time you play here. |

on Thu, 24th Nov 2022 Excellent course with good open spaces. Excellent course with good open spaces. Unfortunately, due to slow play by groups ahead there was bunching on tees with 3-4 holes to play. More control is required on handicaps and whether players are not beginners. |

on Sat, 12th Nov 2022 Incredible course, please maintain its standard. Reception to golf course non existant, quality of greens and tee box were not up to local standards. Fortunately the golf architecture and views on the ocean are perfect. Green fee or maintenance to be adjusted |
|
Kathleen
from Switzerland
on Fri, 11th Nov 2022 Very scenic at times We unfortunately were given a start time in the middle of a member's tournament which meant lots of waiting. At 4.5 hours it was okay. The course is in decent shape, except for lots of pitch marks. It's somewhere between a 3 and 4 - the relatively slow pace of play always makes it less fun. |
|
Paul

on Sat, 5th Nov 2022 The course is well maintain but the holes are not for good players… I would not call this ocean course as one hole is near the ocean Not the best course for the money |

Clarke
from Portugal
on Tue, 5th Apr 2022 The Ocean Course atVale do Lobo another must play. This is the second time I have played the Ocean Course. Every bit as good as the first time and of help is knowing my way round. I got out early and on my own so got round with no hold ups other than letting the greenkeepers finish on z couple of holes. They have sit on mini tractors to smooth the bunkers. An interesting watch. Everything is in terrific condition. The subtlety of the slopes on the greens still caught me out. The holes on the back 9, in particular 11, 14 and 15, the latter being the signature hole, are the most memorable although the 9th is right up there with the somewhat quirky. I rate this course another must play and only marginally behind the Royal course and the Old Course. A buggy or trolley definitely needed although I struggle to see how 50 euros is a fair price for a buggy. That though is my only gripe. Give both Vale do Lobo courses a go because you will definitely want to play them again. |

Keiran
from United Kingdom
on Thu, 24th Mar 2022 Enjoyable course but had higher expectations A good course saved by the greens and the views. The course was a bit rough in all honesty and the conditions weren’t as I’d expect for a course that’s 100 euros. The service in the resort also was disappointing, range not open until 8am and cafe/clubhouse not open until 8am. No good for us if we’re teeing off at 7.50am. Not the 5 star resort we expected it to be. |
