Beautiful and challenging

Lush green landscape, especially in winter (though fairways can get a bit hard in summer, I was told), very well maintained.
The three courses (A, B, C - each 9 holes) offer a nice variety. Elevated and undulated greens, together with at times deep bunkers with rather compact, dark sand offer enough challenges for advanced players and obviously for the average club player as well.

Almost perfect golf

I'd like to give 4 1/2 stars with the only drawback being uncut greens on the front nine. The layout of the C course is very challenging; tight and hilly. The A course is still tough but more open and with beautiful views of the ocean. We played in early October with nice weather and no crowding pressure. The clubhouse has a fine restaurant and there's a good practice range.

Beautiful and well-kept golf course

Both this golf course and the one in Furnas are highlights. Very well-kept fairways and excellent partially undulating greens. Together with the green landscape a special experience. Demanding but fair. We recommend.
The previous reviews of the clubhouse are accurate, but that's tolerable. The facilities must be maintained mainly from the -reasonable- green fees. therefore acceptable. We ate, it was nicely prepared and tasty, definitely recommendable.
Conclusion: if you are on the island or come here alone to play golf, you must have played here!!

Especially something for the eye

Everything looks wonderful at first glance. From many tracks you have a very nice view of the sea.

The greens are visually great, well maintained, but unfortunately very soft. For the fairways you can say something similar. Optically flawless, but difficult to play, as often thin / hard. Especially the short game becomes a real challenge (and nerve test). Rough and Semirough are more special. Either the ball is in a dent or the racket hangs on the bristly grass. The bunkers are hard and filled with heavy sand, but quite playable.

The three 9-hole courses are very different. A cart may not necessarily be, but is already recommended (especially Course C). For a first visit I recommend the variant A / B.

The service was friendly, the bar upstairs ok. I would not recommend golf vacations in the Azores. As a complement to the other activities on the beautiful island of Sao Miguel a detour to one of the two golf courses (Batalha / Furnas) is quite ok.

Beautiful golf course

Have all three seats played. The facility is well maintained. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The greens are well undulating, but not overly fast. Could enjoy the place and the view in peace. We felt welcome there. Gladly again

Better than average

First of all: only to play golf is the way to the Azores too far. But once you're there you can play the 27-hole course. The greens are good, at the fairways were in early May first brown spots recognizable, overall, the course care is average. The layout is great, depending on the condition a cart makes sense. Clubhouse and the whole area are a bit old and need a general refurbishment.

Gladly again

My wife and I have played here yesterday with pleasure allergrößtem Course B & C. The course was in excellent condition with very manicured greens, the whole crew were friendly and obliging. Who has a good general condition, does not need a cart for € 40, -
On the C-Course we were probably all alone, which resulted in beautiful views to a very relaxing round.
For golfers who end up to Sao Miguel, an absolute highlight.

Challenging Course

- All places on St. Miguel very well maintained and excellent integrated into landscape
- Very physically demanding (length, large height differences C course, difficult greens)
- Friendly and courteous staff
- Of package price low (Albrecht Golf Travel) Negative: too little bunker sand Azores are a golf Alternative definitely.

Class golf course

Many interesting and challenging tracks. Well-kept greens. However, the place was very dry, so sometimes barely fairways were still present. We have, however, receive a reduced green fee - beautiful. It is worth to play all three courses in any case.

A must for golfers

We can enjoy this place without pressure of following flights properly. The rowdy we had borrowed - but did them once. The nice people and appropriate the clubhouse. The view of the sea has compensated for some not so good blows.

An absolute must!

After a week of intense playing golf at the two locations on the main island of the Azores, Sao Miguel, we are absolutely thrilled. The courts are in a fantastic condition. The staff is friendly and helpful, the Batalha course offers 27 holes with a lot of variety for both athletic Ambitious as well as for leisure golfers. Between the old trees offers lots of beautiful views of the sea and the volcanic mountains in the area.
We could also buy a cheap green fee package locally. Therefore, 5 stars and an absolute recommendation for anyone who enjoys relaxing golf wil!

What more could you want

Were now already for the second time in the Azores and the 27 holes golf course this always excite 3x absolutely different 9 holes in a good state of maintenance - what more could you want-.
Will come back for sure.
Beware of the C rate is only for mountain goats, as run-able only up 4 times 5 holes and then down again. Power but fun and should not be selected as the start option if you do not have very good physical condition.

Azores - unendecktes golf destination

We were there from 16.07. to 20.07.2009 for 4 days in the Azores and on the golf courses of Bathala UDN Furnas came across two gorgeous golf courses. The golf courses were in very good condition and care besides us was almost no other golfer to see - a real gem!
