Sometimes no resort course in beautiful surroundings
Reviewed September 18, 2022
Played on 9/4/2022. The 18-hole course of the Benamor Golf Club is halfway between Faro and the Spanish border above the national road 125 directly at the resort of Cabanas. The location on the national road means that you can hear traffic from many holes. Otherwise, the complex is without villa development between olive and almond trees in absolute nature and surprised us positively. From a few lanes you have a sea view and also the view from some lanes into the hinterland of the hills is nice to look at. The terrain is generally slightly hilly. Those who are not quite as sporty can take a cart. There are also blind hits. Although most of the tracks go straight ahead, it doesn't get boring. There are also slight doglegs here and there as well as well-placed bunkers and a few water hazards. Except for one or two lanes, the tees are mostly quite open and there is no high rough. A few elevated tees make the game even more interesting. Especially on the two PAR 3, the 10 and 17, it is important to hit the green directly. Otherwise the space at PAR 71 is rather short. The gentlemen can definitely take the back white tees here instead of yellow as usual. The condition was very good, except for a few haircuts that were too narrow and somewhat worn. The fairways had little brown spots and the greens (moderately undulating) were good and true. The bunkers were mostly playable with light sand. Game operations on a Sunday morning were manageable. The two of us were even able to start playing a little earlier than booked and only ran into a three-way flight at 18. There are probably more members playing here than tourists. It was noticeable that not every member greeted in a friendly manner. You can easily see a start time on the homepage and book it with a small agency fee. We paid €55 per player plus €25 for the cart. However, the cart was without GPS and there was no water. The green fee depends on the season and start time. It gets cheaper at lunchtime and there are packages with a cart. The lady in the clubhouse was busy friendly. The clubhouse itself has the appearance of a former finca. The plumbing is absolutely fine. There is no separate toilet on the front nine, but there is on the back nine. The restaurant's terrace is in front of the 9 green. You can eat something here very well and the cellar was friendly and fast. In Benamor you play a rather original and not a resort course, which has a rather unusual charm for the region. We liked it, hence our recommendation.

Friendly reception but correct. The appointment booked via the internet was postponed to vin club and a buggy was no longer available. At 34 degrees I only played 9 holes in a pleasant flight. The drink was more than deserved. Next time the back nine will play.

Tricky
Reviewed January 7, 2020
The course is short but has a number of tricky holes to play, which makes it interesting. The par 3 are a challenge. Fun: There is a building on the square that contains a chapel in the right half and the caddy hall in the left half. Negative: The lady / girl in the pro shop. We didn't get an answer to our "Bom dia". She continued reading her magazine and continued to eat her bun. After about 60 seconds she looked up, took the voucher and read on. When asked about trollys, she said € 6, collected and read on. The rest of the day was positive. Very friendly waiter in the restaurant and as a teammate a member who was extremely nice and polite and explained every hole perfectly. Obrigado John. Play again? Perhaps.

Sad prospects..
Reviewed June 1, 2017
Today played on 31.05.17. € 100 for green fees, e-carts and hire clubs. 25 € for E-Cart is usual tax, 50 € for Greenfee 18 hole is down here nice, 25 € for alleged Cobra bats, which turned out to be a cheat do not go at all. Ok, lefthand you can not expect much, but putter with grasped handle, spalding starter set and then HCP 28 require is far fetched. The clubhouse goes like this. Gastro quite pleasant ambience, you can forget the rest. Sanitary area with in the locker room, showers... as I am perhaps a bit fussy, that goes a thousand times better and cleaner... I then showered with me in the hotel.
To the course, tee-off 1 the greenkeeper me the irrigation system, I was enthusiast, despite start time. Pflegeszustandbahnen... Greens sent, almost no lawn to see, the holes were probably set weeks ago, since the margins were eroded and partly broken away, fairways with flowing transition to brown areas. Zigzag zigzag with partial white-painted trees.. In addition to the fairways fixed course area for e-carts. Driving range well hidden...
The club looks and realizes that he has already a few years on the hump. No improvement in sight. Sad but true...
Who flies to Portugal and expects beautiful places is disappointed here...

Diamond in the Rough
Reviewed September 27, 2015
Short tracks on the front nine. Nevertheless, extremely beautiful embedded in the landscape. When we all were there just a bit dry. Only when there playing golf where man is, the grass is juicy enough :-)
Too bad it is at the service of the Club House not far away. And Weil halt are fewer services, male negotiated halt the price of green fees.
Missing little would make the place even more.

Beautiful golf course in interesting terrain. Discount green fee (40 € incl. Trolley, 60 € incl. Cart)!
Tees and greens in good condition / Fairways somewhat dried out in August.
All in all: It was fun to play here.

Worth it!
Reviewed October 23, 2013
Typical English Golf Club. Exciting holes, very much up and down mountains, this does not quite easy to play.
Excellent course maintenance, fast greens!
We paid € 120 for two including buggy green fees. The place belongs to the Algarve to the cheaper, but that says nothing about its quality. Which is very appealing!
Those who want something more quiet and still wants to play gündtiger should be 20 km to go to Spain. The clubs are less frequented and also excellent. My advice here: Isla Canela and La Monancilla.

I played one the place in June 2012. He is short but has it all. Good maintenance condition and beautiful Gruen. In memory remains hole 10, a Par 3 huebsches Who needs divine help can make a short detour into an adjacent chapel.
Good food and great wine selection. Overall a good day.

Golf enjoyment with beautiful Ausichten!
Reviewed July 11, 2011
Benamor is a relatively short space and makes especially the scorecard much fun. The place was very, very well maintained.
The first 9 holes impress especially with the view of the town Cabanas sea. The second 9 holes are then playfully demanding and have its pitfalls as blind holes, dog legs or just ancient stone walls that extend transversely through the fairway.
Makes a place of fun.
And do not forget - very helpful, friendly staff.

I took my first golf lessons here and was very impressed by the competence of the Pro. The practice facilities are also very good, the use is handled generously (free). The place I can not judge so far.

Good vacation place
Reviewed September 8, 2010
The place is not too long and not demanding. Interfere with some blind holes and often require a look at the previous flight.
The hilly terrain makes the round more interesting.
