2 cars in the parking lot. Why with such a great description?
Only a few people want to play on the course?
Green fee via Golfamore 35 €. Very good value for money.
But 45 € for an ancient and assembled buggy is outrageous.
Tees ruffled.
Fairways ok Greens spotty and dull.
Toilets incredibly dirty.
Benches broken.
No information boards about the railway.
Rarely any indication of the next tee shot. Especially on 16th to 17th.
The 16 was shortened from about 600m to about 400m and supplemented with a 125m pair of 3s. Now the 17.
Summary: The worst Pestana course (I have played all of them several times). Better to pay a little more and get more.

Quite decent space without luxury
4.0 of 5 starsReviewed October 24, 2024
Easy going. No starter. Parking almost at the tee and in the clubhouse. Not chic, old-fashioned but pleasant. Well maintained and green. Lots of back and forth courses, but always separated by a thin row of tall pine trees with shade. Balls were often lying on our fairway. I got my revenge. The tees were very close to the greens, so the 2nd shot had to be right. A previous reviewer noticed the sloping greens at different speeds. Felt strange. On green 18 I noticed what he meant. The green was a sloping flat disc. It would have been 114/p without Golfamore. It gets a star for the 57/p.

Nice shady spot
3.0 of 5 starsReviewed October 18, 2024
Played on October 5th. Team friendly and well organized.
GF of 125 euros not cheap, thanks to Golfamore Card for half price.
Cart 50 euros, but the place is also easy to reach on foot.
Courses rather short, but not easy because of doglegs.
The trees always provide a nice cooling effect even when the sun is shining. We played with 2 Icelandic horses, which only happens on vacation. It was great fun.
The final beer on the quiet terrace was also delicious.
