on Wed, 4th Dec 2024 Wunderschöne Twilight-Runde auf den Löchern 1 - Sympathischer Empfang im Clubhouse. Die Tees, Fairways und Grüns sind im exzellenten Zustand. Wir haben die Löcher 1 - 9 und 10 - 18 gespielt. Landschaftlich vielseitig, überwiegend fehlerverzeihend aber in Teilen auch Anspruchsvoll. Wir kommen gern wieder. |

on Thu, 24th Oct 2024 Always reliable . Always reliable for a very challenging round , good condition considering the downpour the previous evening , great fairways. Bordering on pricey for what you get. |

on Tue, 8th Oct 2024 Villa Sol We played Villa Sol on the last day of our trip and it was the best course we played |
Michael
from United Kingdom
on Mon, 16th Sep 2024 Good well kept course and found it very difficult for a high handicap golfer like myself. The golf buggies are not up to the standard of Pinhall . |

on Fri, 13th Sep 2024 Tight but fun! Tight but good fun, greens a little wooly but passable. Well worth the money in comparison with pricey neighbours. |

on Tue, 2nd Jul 2024 Great Course Great course in great condition, it was busy but pace of play wasn't an issue. |
Karl
from United Kingdom
on Mon, 24th Jun 2024 I was disappointed because we didn’t play the back 9 due to work being done, we wasn’t informed of this and we all went to the 1st tee and was told by a member that we were off the 19th tee so it was total confusion and a mad rush. The greens were poor and the staff on reception when booking in kept me waiting at least 5 mins before dealing with me. 16/20 of us coming back next year but it won’t be at Villa Sol. |
Rob

James
Keegan
from United Kingdom
on Tue, 7th May 2024 Better Options available! Decent enough course with the key elements of Tee Boxes, Fairways, Bunkers and Greens all in good condition, HOWEVER, play was painfully slow, we walked off the 11th Tee after 3 hours and 10 mins - we had a sunset rate so we were willing to do so, however any etiquette of allowing smaller/quicker groups through appears non existent, the course also has 27 holes, we started on the “19th” which was no big deal, when we merged on the 10th for the back 9 it became chaotic and backed up even more! also a little disappointing that the half way drinks/food facility was closed even though there was plenty of players still out. We played 3 other courses across the 5 days and this was by far the worst experience. |
Darren
Howes
from United Kingdom
on Thu, 25th Apr 2024 Great value for money course Lovely traditional course. Some truly great holes and great value for money. Course had been busy all day. We tee’d off at 4.15 as a 4 ball in a buggy and was finished by 7.25. Speed of play on course was much quicker than the other courses. |

Alistair
Riddoch
from United Kingdom
on Mon, 25th Sep 2023 Decent enough course for holiday golf We played the challenge and the prime combination for our 18 holes. The front 9 was had some really nice holes, tees, fairways and greens in really nice condition, some parts of the course rough about the edges but fully playable. The back 9 I found the rough just a foot off the fairway and 'penal' and struggled to find balls in it. It should not be as long as that as near to a fairway it was like there was no 1st or 2nd cut!!! Apart from that issue it was a decent course and more than acceptable for holiday golf. It is definately a notch below the Vale do Lobo or Quinta do Lago courses. Clubhouse had very nice facilities and the staff were very nice and friendly, all in a very pleasant experience. |

Terry
from United Kingdom
on Thu, 29th Jun 2023 Great course hugely enjoable A great 27 hole course 3 9 holes, quite tight yet very enjoyable, We pas this course every time we go to Vilamoura, but have never thought to play it. always thought it to be the poor relation of the Algarve courses, but will definitely be going back again and hopefully next time we will play a combination of all 3 courses. The greens had just been hollow tined didnt help the putting. The club house has the tribute to sir Bobby Robson and the charity work that he does which was great to spend a little time reviewing. There is a half way house for a nit of light refreshments, give it a go we had a great deal €88.00 inc buggy |
David
from United Kingdom
on Tue, 27th Jun 2023 27/06/23 - course was in good condition and the greens evenly paced across the 18. A fair challenge and every shot required, par threes seemed to be the same club every time but a different look off every tee, I look forward to 2 more rounds this week and see if I can beat 35 points |
Graham
from United Kingdom
on Thu, 22nd Jun 2023 Vila Sol golf is great Vila Sol was the last course we played on our six day holiday. They offered an excellent deal with buggies included. The course was in good condition and offered a true test of golf. It was a pleasure to play here and I will certainly return I stay 10 mins from here so it was really easy to get to |
Badri

on Tue, 20th Jun 2023 Thanks Algarve Golf. Net for facilitating., Beautiful golf course. People friendly. Greens and fairways well maintained. |
Paul
from United Kingdom
on Tue, 20th Jun 2023 Great course but poorly organised Really liked the course but groups of juniors were put out ahead of us. No tee times set aside for them and a number of groups got delayed for about 40 minutes. And because of the backlog from the course not being organised the front 9 took close to three hours |
Darren

Nigel
from United Kingdom
on Mon, 12th Jun 2023 Terrible. A complete joke! Sorry but very disappointed with this course. Organisation was the main issue. Lack of buggies, no starter, tee running 20 minutes late, three groups of 8-12 year olds in front with parent supervision with no idea! Flags left out, bunkers not raked, it took over 3 hours on the front 9! No food at half way house and the kitchen had closed by the time we finished. Frankly an absolute disgrace. Ruined the final round of our golf trip. |
Paul
from United Kingdom
on Sat, 3rd Jun 2023 Villa Sol- Challenge & Prime Tough course, 3 opening par 4's over 400 yds each. A real competition course. Thoroughly enjoyed. Lovely par 3's. Valuewise, the best course in the area bar-none. |
Ian
from United Kingdom
on Fri, 2nd Jun 2023 return to vila sol wonderful morning, course very quiet played the prime and challenge great fun followed by family lunch on the terrace. we’ve been doing it for years rarely disappoints. i think they should reinstate the Sunday morning competition as it generates traffic on the course and the inevitable edge to the golf. |

on Sat, 18th Feb 2023 Decent course but very pricey for the conditions. Nice layout and very playable. I thought the turf conditions were below average which was disappointing considering the cost to play here. Facilities were excellent. Staff very friendly and accommodating. I’d play twilight for $50 bucks again but would not spend the $$$ for 18 holes and a buggy |

Kathleen
from Switzerland
on Fri, 11th Nov 2022 Decent to good golf day Generally a nice course, although off the fairway at times tended to be hard as a rock. If one hits the ball straight, then playing your handicap shouldn't be too hard. The green were well maintained, with a lot fewer pitch marks than on some other courses. The tee boxes were substandard (especially for the ladies) but playable. The pace of play was okay, allowing us to finish in just over 4 hours. The staff at the reception were super friendly and efficient. |

Savage

on Wed, 19th Oct 2022 Never again We were told before booking that buggies could not be pre-booked. When we got there it was clear there was never any possibility of a buggie. Mayhem in the pro shop with others in the same position. Paid 120 euro {not worth it) on a hot day. We would not have booked here if we knew this. Charged 10 euro for a rickety pull trolley. Left after 9 holes. Golf day ruined. |
Denis

on Thu, 13th Oct 2022 A little dissatisfied A little dissatisfied with this course. Condition was quiet tardy. Rough a bit too high. Some holes unfair. Would however play it again and will suggest it to friends. |
Tony
Higgins
from Ireland
on Wed, 12th Oct 2022 Tony Higgins This is a very good golf course but in terrible condition at the moment. Tees are like football goalmouths, greens poor and course had an overall feeling of neglect- the overflowing waste baskets around the course said it all. Have had many good days on this course and hopefully those in charge will get their act together in the near future. |
Jim
from Israel
on Wed, 12th Oct 2022 Beware when booking Arrived an hour early and was told to wait until 10 min before tee off for buggies but hey presto no buggies available but we can have pull trollies for an exorbitant €10 each. Inform people when booking golf that buggies may be available so they chose an alternative. For what is supposed to be a 5 star resort you would think that there would be ample supply of buggies. Ruined our round as we only played 9. We will not be back! |
Anja
from Switzerland
on Tue, 11th Oct 2022 Average Course Over booked, long waits and chaotic at check-in - DR absolutely below average, very old balls and in very poor condition. Course is nice |
Judi
from United Kingdom
on Fri, 7th Oct 2022 Overpriced for condition Very busy course. Staff helpful but cannot guarantee buggies. Bunkers had little sand. Conversely, greens had many pitch marks. Despite saying there’s handicap limits, these are not checked & groups with poor etiquette are accepted. Don’t intend playing again. |
Dan
from Portugal
on Tue, 4th Oct 2022 Fantastic greens at Vale Sol We played the first 2 nines in early October. The course design is interesting and very challenging. Fairways are tight. Greens are in great shape. Only give it four stars cuz the fairways are very beat up. Would love to see the course when it’s in prime shape |
Alan
from United Kingdom
on Thu, 22nd Sep 2022 Nice course but This is a nice course but…. It’s quite long, there is no marshalling of play so punters take as long as they like. Even with a buggy it was over 5hrs to get round. Course is in good order though. |

Gerard
from Ireland
on Sun, 1st May 2022 Buggy shortage Played A and C. Courses were in good condition with a good roll on the greens. C course trees are too encroaching on the course and make some holes too difficult. I think they should consider cutting some back. A is a better layout and a great test. The price of 45 euro for twilight is very reasonable. However, the shortage of buggies is disgraceful. One of our party could not play due to only 1 buggy available at 3pm tee time. This must happen every single day and has not been addressed since i last played here some 10 years ago. A golfer teeing off at 3pm should recieve the same service as one that tee's off at any time. We did get a reduced rate for our trolleys but would have preferred buggies. Please address this. Staff were pleasant. |
Molly
from United Kingdom
on Fri, 29th Apr 2022 Stunning course, but painfully slow play. The course condition was stunning and service by all staff was excellent, facilities were great and the club hire was great standard new Taylormade full sets. However, the course was absolutely rammed with 4balls, most of whom seemed to be complete amateur golfers, meaning play was painfully slow. At no point did anyone seem to be asked for handicap certicates, which is desperately needed. |
David
on Tue, 26th Apr 2022 Good course. Nice course, well organised. Some slow play from other golfers. Maybe have a Marshall at the first tee box to prevent pile up. |

Karen
Clarke
from Portugal
on Tue, 5th Apr 2022 Vila Sol is well worth a visit. I have always liked Vila Sol. I think it is probably the best value in the area particularly for twilight golf. Hopefully this will not change. The 27 holes offer 3 options for a full 18 holes and most of the course is very playable for anyone who has a fair playing ability or better. Probably a bit tougher for novices but they should also enjoy it. My latest experience was that the round was played at a reasonable pace. The greens were excellent, fairways very good but some of the tees were cut up. They are not the biggest tees and that might be half the problem. In my view the stand out hole is the 6th. Overall I would be happy to recommend playing at Vila Sol and I will be going back the next time we visit Villamoura. |
