Characteristics
Pine Cliffs was built in a stone pine grove on impressive cliffs above beautiful, sandy beaches, which are so typical for the Algarve. With nine holes, of which none is very long (only two holes are longer than 360 m) it still poses an interesting challenge. The jewel is par 3, which takes course over te Champion-Tee over a canyonand calls for a 205 m long and exact drive over the bay.

Don't be so strict
Reviewed October 9, 2024
Pine Cliffs is a short and narrow 9-hole course. We played it in the evening sun, the big pine trees not only provide shade, but also look great! We played the final hole over the red cliffs from the very back, it was beautiful. Not a championship course but great for a nice evening round!

...Resort Golf...
Reviewed February 4, 2024
...that's how the course feels,
...you can love nine holes courses or not,
...we don't travel far for courses like this
The main reason for our visit - we stayed at the resort - were two holes, hole 5 a par 5 right on the cliff (along the cliff), and the following par 3 with the most photographed tee in the Algarve. Not everyone wrote down their pars...
The course was laid out very well by Martin Hawtree, with as little earth movement as possible.
We can follow the rating regarding the course description from magictk, but we are not so generous with the star award.

Well-maintained place in a luxury resort
Reviewed November 22, 2023
First of all: the 9-hole course along with the Academy/DR is located in a fairly large resort in the premium category. Very well-maintained facility with plenty of sports on offer (including a soccer field, tennis academy with sand and hard courts...). The DR includes a short range, chipping green with bunkers and a putting green. The ball basket with 45 balls in good quality is available for EUR 6.00. Otherwise there is no range fee. Everything isn't particularly big, but the quality is OK
The 9-hole course is rated BELOW AVERAGE! This means that most players are deducted 1 or even more strokes as a rule. So a HCP 12 players plays with 9 (18 holes) - on the first 9 holes with 4!
Played at the end of November 2023 in summer temperatures and moderate wind. Despite being very busy, the course was in very good condition - with the exception of the red teas. Slightly hilly with lots of pine trees and doglegs, you should place the drive well, otherwise the shot to the flag will be blocked by trees. Around the green, different types of grass (including Bent) make short play/dosage more difficult.
We found the tracks to be quite varied. Including a par 4 with 395 meters and hole 9 with 150 meters uphill and with a headwind during our visit (plays more like 170 meters). Often bunkers in front of the greens with lots of soft sand. In short: the white teas aren't exactly very long either; nevertheless, in our opinion, more difficult than it initially seems.
The course is very popular - especially with women compared to neighboring courses.
We paid EUR 27.00 p.p. for 9 holes in the low season with the "Golfamore" card (one-time 50% discount). A bargain for Algarve standards. It took us 1 hour 45 minutes to play 9 holes.
We had fun on the course and can definitely recommend a visit.
