on Mon, 8th Oct 2018 First time at Vila Sol Played 3 days in a row. Tees were not changed and all were quite worn especially the par 3s. Pin positions on greens were not changed either. If would have been nice to have had a bit of variety. Also no buggy bar on course for all 3 days. It was 28 degrees and the buggy bar would have been very welcome. The bar / hut at 10 was only open 2 out of the 3 days.... Greens were just ok and pace was good.. We were fortunate to have buggies but quite a few of the paths are very bumpy and could do with being resurfaced.... We stayed in the deluxe garden rooms, they were excellent very clean and the breakfast in hotel was first class.. Special mention to Jorge and Ricardo on reception they both couldn't do enough for us.. Would certainly go back to resort unfortunately not to play golf |

on Sat, 29th Sep 2018 Very Disappointed, played there several times before this week but not recently. Course was ok. However, there were no buggies available. We were told we would have to wait for buggies to come in which is understandable. But people who had booked in before us but were teeing after us, had buggies. The staff were very unsympathetic and didn't seem bothered. The organisation was poor. No staff on the course to keep play moving. We were behind a four ball who had buggies (we were a four ball) that had fell several holes behind. They wouldn't let us play through, so we walked off after nine holes. Also wihlst having a drink a six ball came down the 18th. All in all it was a very disappointing experience. The staff were very poor. Regards Mr Paul Preston |

on Tue, 18th Sep 2018 Started off on hole 19 and to be honest holes 19-27 were a bit rough..fairways were burnt and bare but when we moved onto holes 1-9 there was a marked improvement in the condition of the fairways and greens..would go back if it holes 1-18 |

on Thu, 28th Jun 2018 First time playing at Vila Sol. It wasn't a particularly challenging course as long as you keep to the fairways. Cow grass rough and loads of trees so stay clear if you can. We started on hole 19 as 1 -9 was closed for maintenance. Chockers when we went back to hole 10 for our cross over. Some fairways weren't in the best condition. Overall, did not enjoy as much as other Pestana courses due to slow play in front and tailgating golfers behind. |

on Sun, 10th Jun 2018 Vila Sol Review Played 19-27 then 1 - 9 Vila Sol Friendly pro shop, starter introduced himself showed us to the tee. Course condition - Green were good running smooth, sand in bunkers were consistent fairways a little patchy in places. Tee boxes and buggy paths looking tired in need of attention. Overall - course layout great |

on Thu, 19th Oct 2017 Terrible organisation Course was ok but so bably organised. If we had known there would be no buggies available then we would not have booked to play here. 4 guys in our group over 65 yrs of age. 5 1/2 hours to play and then charge you 23 Euro for a electric push cart!!! Utter disgrace and certainly one place we won't be returning. |

Nick
from United Kingdom
on Sun, 15th Oct 2017 Nick P Good course but completely disorganised no proper organised starter took 5.5 hrs to play 18 holes. Then got to the 16th and a 3 ball had cut in (is this what you expect for 80 euros a round? Maybe that’s ok for a run down municipal but not what you’d expect for a top course on the Algarve?) in summary course ok golf management leaves a lot to be desired. |

on Sun, 1st Oct 2017 Love it, but course can have a sting in the tail A lovely place to play golf, fairways can be a bit soft in places, and the course is very tight in places with very small margins for error. A little unfair sometimes, and a bad shot is always punished. Would never turn up the opportunity to play here. Allow plenty of time for a drink after as it probably has the best club house in the area. |

David
on Fri, 22nd Sep 2017 Overcrowded, very pricey and so slow which was a shame as the golf course itself was well presented and a real challenge |

Michael

on Sun, 13th Aug 2017 Lovely course and great golf experience. Great course and a very enjoyable golf experience. Course playing well, considering it is open all year round. The only negative was the cost of buggy hire, at 45€ each. Michael Currie, member of Edenmore Golf and Country Club. |

on Tue, 25th Jul 2017 Vila Sol now one of Fabulous course. Front 9 though was poor regarding the greens. Sooooo long. And the fairway grass was very long too. Back 9 fabulous. Lovely setting and a real treat to play the course. A definite favourite now |

Roberto

on Sat, 22nd Jul 2017 So and so Not bad... the holes are funny and it's very good that there are 27 holes! But the grass was dry in a lot of parts and the green were very ruined. |

on Wed, 28th Jun 2017 Majorca Friends - Vila sol June 2017 The course was well maintained and in good condition. It was interesting in that all holes were different. A challenge but nevertheless very enjoyable. The fairways were ample and the greens good to putt on if not a bit slow ( time of year ). The staff ( bar, reception and caddy master ) were brilliant - helpful, polite and pleasant. |

on Sun, 25th Jun 2017 Vila Sol Played 1-18. Testing opening holes. Very busy front 9 with most groups playing it as their back 9, then nobody on our back 9. Probably need to look at and monitor tee times and speed of play. Enjoyable visit |

Adam
from United Kingdom
on Tue, 20th Jun 2017 Good course but probably won't be returning A challenging course and in good condition, however I have now played here twice and on both occasions very slow pace of play! Round took over 5 and a half hours. Also one player in our group had to pay full price due to a late decision to play (the rest of the group got summer special deals) however we were disappointed that at least half of the tee boxes were forward off the red tees. |

on Mon, 19th Jun 2017 Vila Sol June 2017 Holes as interesting as ever but the manicuring around the greens was very poor plus the greens were patchy and had disease on them. Overall enjoyed the course but it does need a lot of TLC |

on Sun, 21st May 2017 Challenging course but untidy attention to detail. Vila Sol is a good layout that is a challenge. However, the condition is below par. There are courses in better condition in the area for a similar price. |

on Wed, 12th Apr 2017 3rd nine very tight Avoid playing 19-27 if you can. They seem to be an afterthought and there was probably not quite enough room. |

Featherstone

on Mon, 1st Aug 2016 Vila Sol, 9 holes closed! Great Course, a very traditional Portuguese course with fairways lined by Umbrella Pine Trees. We could only play the front nine of the Championship course and the 'Primo' 9 because the back nine of the Championship course was closed for maintenance, which really just looked like a rest as there was no visible maintenance taking place! This was disappointing and we had no prior notice of this being the case, despite the front 9 having been closed for at least 2 weeks before we got there, so not great from Algarve.net. the Primo 9 is a good and enjoyable walk but not as challenging as the Champ course. |
