Very Good See all 109 reviews

Alamos Golf Course is one of the most recent additions to the vast number of incredible courses in the Algarve region. It is beautifully blended into the rolling landscape and provides a fantastic test for golfers of all abilities. The holes weave through the hills and flow across the terrain, creating undulating greens and fairways which require a great deal of accuracy.

This incredible layout affords golfers striking views of the Monchique Mountains, offering a unique test and challenge compared to other Algarve courses. Together with the Morgado and Salgados, Alamos is part of the delightful triumvirate of golf courses that make for the ultimate tour for those based in the awesome town of Portimao, where Morgado Golf & Country Club is the top place to stay.

Alamos Golf Course

The 6,600 yard layout was formulated by the highly regarded European Golf Design association, and while the course is relatively open from the tee, its large greens are extremely tricky. The enormous putting surfaces are noted for their severe slopes, and are guarded by treacherous bunkers.

The raised greens play havoc with club selection, while Alamos is also punctuated with a number of hazardous water features; in fact, the course is formulated around three large lakes, which provide both excitement and aesthetic beauty. Alamos has received much praise in its short time on the Algarve, and is a real pleasure to enjoy during a holiday in this golfing paradise.

Signature Hole: Hole 9, Par 3, 190 yards, SI 11

The par 3 9th hole is indicative of the test it presents, with a small but undulating green surrounded by tricky mounding and hazards.

Got off on time, pace of play was good, course was varied and challenging, greens were fast and slightly difficult to read, however was paired up with another 2 ball and 1 was a member who knew the course which helped.

This course is run from the same clubhouse as the Morgado so all the above points are relevant to this course as well. We booked buggies for this when we visited the Morgado and were glad we did. Fairways we in a better condition than the Morgado but the greens about the same.

Another unseasonably hot day although we were fortunate enough to secure a buggy. But on both days that we were at Morgado/Los Alamos there were a number of people that believed they had pre booked a buggy but were told there were none available. Course itself has plenty of variety and very interesting to play.

We played at Vale Do Lobo the day before and there is a huge contrast between the two courses. The fairways were very dry in places and lots of sand on the greens. The pace of play was slow - at one stage we were held up by 5 groups on one hole (the 6th). The drinks cart didn't come out until the 12th hole which wasn't great. Staff friendly and the outside terrace was okay post-match drinks. Not sure I'd play here again.

Part of the Morgado complex . So same complaint re: Buggies ‼️ The course is a bit trickier than it looks on the Card . Plenty of water ( Red stakes ) to avoid . Can’t just go around taking Driver off the Tee , it’s more a thinking Mans golf course . Good Greens and putted well . Some of the Fairways need a bit of attention but all in all a good test of Golf .

Due to the lack of buggies indicated on our visit to Morgado(same clubhouse) on the previous day((refer Morgado review) some of my group decided to stay in our hotel and forego this round altogether due to prevailing heat. Despite previous days advice that no buggies would be available,after further complaint, two were reluctantly provided on registration. Altogether a forgettable experience.
