Silves

Solid second rate golf course by Algarve standards

Some picturesque holes, was popular with the higher handicappers in the group.

Nice and friendly staff Golf course is very quiet and relaxing

Course in good condition had been prepared to for European Seniors qualifier

A new favourite. Beautiful settings, some cracking par 5s. Par 3s a little sammy but a great course.

Good course

Not sure how much of our money paid for this course but it was worth it. Loved it. The views, the lay out. It was our favourite. Fabulous place to play.

We were paired up with a great couple of guys from Ireland. Had a great round- pace was good and overall condition was fair. A bit wet in parts but there had been a lot of rain over the last few days. Was told there is a brand new clubhouse for next year. Will look forward to visiting then. Nice course and easy to play with pull trolley.

A new clubhouse is under construction which will alter the course layout.

Some beautiful holes. Plays very short off they yellows but very relaxing. Fantastic staff who remembered us from 3 years ago. They even printed off our return boarding passes for us. Buggie recommended for less mobile players.

Lovely course with some great par 5’s and par 3’s.

Good coarse well presented staff are friendly and helpful. Greens ran true and fast tricky to get the pace. Keep it straight and you will play well, start to stray and it gets very tricky

Definately the second best course we played,well designed and some nice difficult holes to keep us sharp.

Another great course in super condition great greens that were very responsive to shots being fired in. Tough long par 3 holes and a mixture of short and long par 4's that required good shots. The par 5 holes were terrific.

I did not like this course very much, mainly because some of the par fives were quite boring, made for the big hitters, in fact there were not many holes that made you think about what you had to do. The greens were very good and well maintained and the staff very friendly throughout.

One thing I would say about this course it is really nice par 3s are quite hard but par 5s are nice and challenging but only bad thing is the way the club pack groups out a few more mins to let a group play ahead a bit further as we had a 4ball and 3 2 balls newrly on the same tee but nice course

Enjoyed the course but the smoke/smell from the cork factory nearby spoilt it a little. Well worth a visit though.

course in very good condition

The course was pleasant but slow and not very picturesque bit of an in finished building site

Great no one on course August quiet weather not too hot so flew round.

This course was in superb condition.......greens etc were fantastic.....really enjoyed our final day here. Very impressed.

Very enjoyable round toss up between this and Gramacho.

We had reserved 5 buggies with yourgolftravel. Only had 3. Were told they don't take reservations on buggies. My booking clearly shows 5 reserved. Didn't try to help us in any way.

The major issue was there were no buggies for us when we arrived. Buggies were included in our contract with you. The majority of my party are over 60 (4 over 65). It is important that buggies are needed. We were given 5 electric trollies, 5 pull trollies and by the time the last pairing were going out we got 1 buggy. 1 of the electric trollies p Failed to work after 6 holes and had to be pushed for a time. The person gave up after 2 holes and we phoned the clubhouse to have the player collected as he was exhausted in the heat. We will certainly wish to be refunded for the buggies not available I.e 5 x 45 euro which is the cost we paid at the other course.

After the second hole, the views and course opened up and were fantastic!! Our transfers for all three courses and airport were spot on, friendly, helpful staff, can't thank them enough.

Quite a nice course the greens were not in good condition and clubhouse very basic

Another great course for all golfers , only slight negative was the cork factory next to the course which threw out a lot of smoke which drifted across the course but wouldn’t stop me going again.

Lovely course, great greens but the pace of play was slow. We were 12 ladies walking with electric trollies but were held up by 4 balls in buggies. The course needs some marshals. The club house is tired but the staff were the friendliest. The new clubhouse hopefully will have better facilities and is under construction. Would recommend this course.

Short of buggies so some had to walk. No ability to pre book buggies

Different from Gramacho but enjoyable.

Consensus of opinion from 12 of us was we all enjoyed and loved the course. The clubhouse was a bit tatty but I understand they’re building a new clubhouse. Would definitely return there.

Good course and gives golfers of all abilities a chance. Will return!!

Great fun. Course was in fantastic condition.

what a course to welcome our first day in Portugal. the course was in great condition and some of the holes where breath taking. it was a tough walking course for the first day.

No problems.... some of staff obviously having a bad day !! So nice to see the new signage to the course , makes getting there so much easier

Greens were slow compared to gramacho and pinta..long par 5s and par 3s with some short par 4s we were a bit spoilt playing the other to first..good course tho

was ok had to alter the round to silves from alto which we had been booked on despite asking not to

Playing it again on 28 December

We will not play here again . We have had mixed experiences on this course mainly pretty negative. Instead of improving it gets worse . There seems to be a problem with drainage on the fairways. Obviously there is a comprehensive watering system due to climate . The problem is most of the fairways remain soggy giving difficult conditions and making the course play very long . They need permanent preferred lies on many holes . There is no Marshalling / supervision on the course. They allow non-golfers on the course making it chronically slow . Whatever happened to min Handicaps.? At one point we were one of 4 x 4 balls on one tee. We came off after 16 holes ,having been on course for 4.75 hours . We ought to have our money back

nice but feel not as good as the others. greens need work and slow round. NO course Marshalls to quicken up play. Again buggy's expensive

Course was good (1st time we played it).. greens better than Pinta. Pestana look like they are spending a lot of money on facilities so when these are finished this will be a really good facility and track... only gripe... 30 degree temp and no on course refreshment buggy

Bunkers were watered too much
