- €177 (valid in June and 1st - 15th September),

Designed by Nick Faldo with strategic play in mind, this 6,604 meters par 72 championship course demands careful positioning to score well. Nick said: `The land at Amendoeira is dramatic and the project has the potential to be a real talking point in the Algarve. With so many courses in the region, that’s no mean feat,` pointed out Faldo, who will be non–playing captain of the European Ryder Cup team in 2008. In a modern twist of a traditional recipe, cacti and wild herbs replace the role of Sunningdale’s heather, Spartan Holm oaks and ancient olive trees take the place of a lush English woodland, and desert scrub bunkers of crushed limestone replace Berkshire’s sandy tracts in a golf course that revels in the classic principles of strategic play.
Facilities
The complex at Vilamoura offers the complete holiday experience. The new clubhouse offers fantastic views and food and drink to the highest of standards. The pro shop offers Callaway club rental, buggies and shoe hire, together with the extensive practice facilities this really is a world class golf resort.
