Dear Sir,

Sorry that I didn't replay to your review before.
Thank you for take your time writing a review.

I take this chance to let you know that we open a second Golf Course (5 min away), called West Cliffs.
I hope that we can receive you again and you can have the opportunity to play both courses next time.

Breathtaking

Atlantic golfing at its best.

Maybe a bit far if you do not stay in the resort.

Driving range so so (carpets) & expensive.

Great fun

Played the course again for the first time after the pandemic. It's crazy how much is still going on here at the beginning of October. A start in the morning allows for a lap time of 4h30 amidst loud flights of four. The course can be played very well from yellow for men, handicap is included. The holes 13-16 are still superb, but I also like the inland holes, it's a shame that the 8 (par 3 across the pond) is still played in a defused way. On the recommendation of a member you can at least eat a sandwich in the restaurant again. Great place that has matured with dignity.

Fantastically

Beautiful and very well-kept place. Lush fairways, fast greens. Fantastic views of dunes and sea. We started on tee 10 and unfortunately had to wait 15 minutes at tee 1 because 2 flights of four started on tee 1 in front of us (poorly organised).

It's very popular...

Have played it several times. One of my TOP 25 (with 750 courses played) in terms of location, view and course guidance. Of course, given the "Award in 22", the strong response is not surprising. If you are staying in a hotel, it is actually not a problem with the start times etc. I will definitely come again...

Top golf course, but with its quirks

The golf course (layout, condition, varied tracks, view, ...) is great. The view is often beautiful and leaves you amazed. Just as amazed can be about the quality of the place. Fast greens, good fairways and bunkers. Each hole is different. However, as described in the last review, the course cannot be compared to the West Cliffs Golf Course. The course is much easier to play, which isn't necessarily a bad thing as West Cliffs can be a bit overwhelming at times. Outside of the golf course one cannot necessarily praise Praia d'el Rey. The clubhouse needs to be renovated and the terrace could also be made nicer. There is nothing wrong with the driving range; different the putting green. The speed and condition of the practice greens does not correspond in any way to the greens on the course. Rather slow practice green and quite fast on the course. The condition of the green is poor, which (fortunately) is not the case on real greens. The practice green is not true to the trace either. So remember not to putt on the green of the first hole at the same speed as you putt on the practice green.

Conclusion: There is nothing wrong with the golf course itself. The course is fun to play, especially if you've played the much more difficult West Cliffs Course before. Unfortunately, the picture is clouded by the trappings, which is a shame. That's why there's a star deduction. However, the course itself is only recommended and should definitely be played if you want to play golf in the region.

Overrated

Compared to West Cliffs, the significantly weaker course overall:
The course is very very busy - 4-flight to 4-flight- an early start time is an advantage, much busier than West Cliffs. The course is nice but nothing special, West Cliffs on the other hand is special. The front 9 rather narrow, back 9 on the water with beautiful views. The greens are extremely difficult: small, heavily obduated and extremely fast.
Care condition was very, very good.
Trolleys ancient and rickety, still 7 eur. Most drive carts, probably because of the paths between the green and the tee, but you can walk well in space, the pace of play is slow anyway because there is full space.
Clubhouse terrace is below average, a tiled area with cheap furniture, little shade and completely exorbitant prices (beer about 6 EUR, pizza about 18.50, burger about 18.90, spaghett with tomato sauce about 15.50).

A very good place

As already described, the front and back nine differ significantly. The course maintenance is very good, but the overall impression does not deserve the 5 stars in my opinion. It certainly also plays a role that there is a direct comparison with West Cliff in the immediate vicinity. Regardless of the rating, which always has to remain subjective, you should definitely play this course - you definitely won't do anything wrong.

The place is very well maintained. The greens are really "bite". From time to time it can also have brown spots on the fairways. The greenkeepers are trying to make them green again.
The layout is great. the place is very good to handle on foot.
In the whole a place that does not immediately punish all failures immediately. some holes have a great view of the sea. priceless. price / performance greenfee: fits. price / performance cart: rather high. good dr.

After 2017 we were back there again. The place and the hotel still worth a visit. Place in excellent condition and completely relaxed and relatively empty for mid-June. The holes on the Atlantic are still looking for their peers. My wife was thrilled and will be back next year. Incidentally, we ate excellent in the area, for a price in Hamburg you can only dream. Hopefully that will stay that way for a long time.

World class!!!

I played for the third time (2005,2009,2019) Praia del Rey, in total all top places in Portugal (over 40 places only in Portugal)!
For me Bom Sucesso is No. 4 in Obidos and Royal Obidos the No. 3, both courses are completely average Iberian golf courses...!
West Cliffs Links plays in a very, very different league, a great course with great design, but for me only the No. 2 in Obidos! At Praia del Rey not only in Obidos ran not ran, but for me in Portugal!
For me, the # 1 is Praia del Rey (World Class, Mix of Links Seaside and Pine Forest Course in Dune Scenery), # 2 Oitavos Dunes, # 3 West Cliffs Links, # 4 Troy, # 5 San Lorenzo, # 6 Monte Rei, No.7 Vilamoura Old, No.8 Palmares, No.9 Aroeirra I, No.10. Estella Links! Praia del Rey is in spite of the many resort houses (unfortunately for some years on the Atlantic) in my opinion still world class and one of the best golf courses in continental Europe!

Unfortunately only a few holes at the sea

Six holes by the sea. Partially Ireland feeling, but also many interchangeable holes between rows of houses. Care condition average. Proshop scantily sorted and moderate food on the Clubhausrerrasse.
Undoubtedly worth a game golf course but in my eyes only the number 3 behind West Cliffs and Royal Obidos.

Play when it rains dogs and cats...

To a left-course, of course, always a strong wind and possibly still cloud-like rain. Exactly this weather we had in our round on 30.10.2018, weather wise, it was Survival training. But since the place was fully booked every day we and some other "prepayer" could not switch to another day. The water stood on the fairways, woodcutting was almost impossible, the balls were driven on the greens arcuate by the wind.
But all in all, we were very happy that we held out, such a place in this position and with these undulating fairways you just have to play!

Revisited - Great place

After 3 years I was back on the field, and was thrilled, so good I did not remember the place! Range this time with grass tees. The inland holes had done to me this time (unfortunately, the Par3 over the water was shortened), and the holes 12-17 are golfing and the best in Europe. Secretariat still very friendly, food was disappointing this time.
Conclusion: great varied place, better than West Cliffs but to Royal Obidos still missing something but that is admittedly very picky. Be sure to play!

Wi played 3 times on Praya del Rey. It was always bad. They start from Tee1 and Tee10, and after 2 hours the hell is on the court. You come from the 9 on tee10 and there are cheerfully new flights and the 3 groups before us are waiting... 6 groups on tee 10, that is not at all and with over 5 hours is no golf course any more good..

Rather barren

- Views: partly top. The tracks along the sea. Rest rather like Home.
- Topography: PAR 73 but super-light. Hcp 4.8, default 3.
Nothing spectacular, such as the Royal Obidos.
Many very short and barren tracks. Not suitable for ambitious golfers.
- Organization: Perfect. At the start even the ticket is checked( Achtung Schwarzspieler (;)
- Location: Perfect. Greens, fairways and bunker top.
- Clubhouse / Restauration: Friendly and firm service. If you're hungry and want to get fed up, order a sandwich. Pasta much too little.
Secret tip: tuna sandwich Resumee: My wife, Hcp 18,5, found the place boring. Questions?
And next to the car park and often play between the houses, is not everyone's thing. For me this was the first and last round.

Perfect for the season opening

The fair, located in very good condition in late February, Square is ideal for the start of the new season. With HCP 13 has front of Yellow 12, the place is therefore the rating forth easily. If the wind picks up times, it is a little more demanding. But it still comes along well, because the tracks not excessively long and 9 Parkland tracks are relatively protected from the wind. It's running well with not so stable routine and you enjoy the game. It is about this time of year very quietly, hardly any waiting time or pressure of rear flights. We were already the second time there and it will not be our last visit. Marriott Hotel totally ok, price / performance of the golf package total absolute top.

Demoted Impressive place for training camp

The combination of a genuine links course (back nine) directly along the coast with the Park-country course (front nine) through the beautiful old pine forests is truly impressive. The often very strong Atlantic wind brings a great addition to consider component into play. That makes the whole thing much more difficult, it is no fairway to describe as unfair and concentration can be a handicap always play.. Good manicured fairways and fast greens accompany a.
Annoying were only and alone the many, too many golf-course groups from around the world that delay the game partially improper. The reasonable driving range was between 9 and 12 times not to use due to overcrowding and these golf courses were to have the opinion of a monopoly on the driving range for themselves. Unpleasant. But the great space left a the quickly forgotten.

We spent 11 days in the nearby Marriot Resort, played in 6 rounds on the pitch and were glad the weather for one or the other gust of wind...

Beautiful space, as already written several times, partly, partially playing Parkland with breathtaking views along the Atlantic Ocean.
Very good maintenance condition and not too crowded. The tracks are varied and challenging and in combination with staying at Marriot priced more than adequate. The front desk staff is very accommodating, speaks good English and is also useful advice.

We have beautiful rounds played, left a few balls there and afterwards enjoyed the cold beer on the terrace of the clubhouse with stunning views of Loch 10th This was definitely not our last stay at Praia d'el Rey!

Windy part links course

Played on 23 and 03.29.2015, HCP 14

Oh yes - one of the few exceedingly handsome links courses outside the British Empire / Ireland - at least on the back nine! It often plays on the seafront and has always really great views over the dunes to the ocean. Also not at the seaside paths (mainly the front nine) are with the great pine-stock optically really nice. However, means "links" that access by the wind quite violent whistles almost constantly around the ears! Even with the 15 ° one is already properly cooled by a few tracks - absolutely ensure adequate clothes - there must a jumper and even a sweater and a windbreaker more (and possibly even a sweater.)! The only visual problem is the many houses that inland spoil the look at some holes, even if they are far away from the fairways.

The layout of the tracks is varied - Boredom is unknown, there is actually no "Füllnummern". The greens are moderately wavy, expeditiously but not spectacularly fast nor difficult. The score really just a dirty wind (or, as in most cases, the players themselves ...).

Condition is not topp - the fairways are partly already a bit "rough" and the greens have a few brown spots on (but are still to play fair).

Who is somewhat athletic, can cope with the course easy walking distance - it is not very hilly. Only the (anti-) wind and a few longer distances between the orbits make a Cart worth considering.

The service in the Pro Shop is blameless - very friendly and quick.
Reasonably priced with regular EUR 110, - (weekend 130, -) is already quite steep - with green fees for guests of the Resort Package and it is affordable.

Unfortunately, the place is pretty crowded. Even 10 minutes before the T-Time Starter appeared on putting green and urged for knocking. After a few tracks it has accumulated, the Marshall urged the people waiting behind our 4-Flight 2's Flight to overtake and to close with the front of us also waiting 2er together. So then were louder 4p after another until the end of the 5-hour round - ran to the Par3s up to 3 Flights to.

Conclusion: A very nice, consistently exciting links course, people like to play more often - if you like wind and can not be put through slow pace from the rest. Smooth 4 stars (the "Bear Golf Ranking": 8 out of 10 points).

Great

A great place that leaves little to be desired. The first 9 holes even more of a parkland course, then open from the 10 breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and exciting and good golf holes. The course is in excellent condition, the value for money (€ 72.50) heavy fine. From my perspective (Hdcp. 5) an absolute top site, which is classified much higher than eg Oitavos Dunes. Even here, could not be canceled the pre-booked green fees for a short term becoming ill and colleagues. However, this was explained to us friendly and understandable with the already made on arrival. Absolute recommendation!!!

A lot of unnecessary hassle on a beautiful place

Without a doubt, a very beautiful and well-kept place, varied it. Great running parallel to the beach running tracks with great ocean backdrop. Here, the sometimes very strong wind makes the game a real challenge. Less liked the unnecessary hassle and the exhortation for fast game. Here the club has obviously need to catch up in the organization or the greed outweighs simple. Booked start times were suddenly shifted and at the 9 exhorted the Marshall we his 2 minutes (!) Too late and would now have to wait at the 10. Considering that probably almost all players on holiday, here is a completely unnecessary hassle is built to still push Flights between. Since we had booked in a package with an accommodation at the nearby Marriott Hotel, the prices were ok. The reception is otherwise competent and speaks good English. Annoying were sometimes the greenkeepers who constantly went back and forth with no apparent work with the carts, to talk to each other and so the Spielfluß brought on by each other.

Great Place

The course is in top condition, no question. Annoying the scramble, you should please 'fast play' - have used 3 1/2 hours. The green fee is a joke, if it is a 'triple pack' buys as a guest at Bom Sucesso cheaper, with which you can play in Praia d'el Rey (€ 177.50 for 3 x green fee, valid in Bom Sucesso Praia d'el Rey, Obidos, and Royal). The buggy is way overpriced with 42.50!

Great course with great scenery

A magnificent complex of lanes 1 to 18 The fairways were well maintained, the greens sourtreu, top mowed quickly and pleasantly. The course counts in this state and in great conditions undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places in Portugal.
Who wants to play to sniff only 9 holes, the second nine are recommended, as here, the price is more along the Atlantic Ocean and is something more essential to the eye.
The clubhouse offers classic dishes and fine dining in the adjoining restaurant. So if you want to eat his dinner there, the restaurant can also be recommended.
To stay at the resort owned Marriott Hotel is a good address.

Dream place?

I was able to play last week the place.
So completely I can not agree with the previous reviews.
Positives: fantastic location, exciting trip fairways and fast greens well maintained. Even if they are stained. The surrounding development is predominantly set far back, relatively easy and mostly done.
Negatives: (typical German) lack of information on the distance to the obstacles discounts. The hole 11 is placed between 10 and 12 you could say dangerous pushed in between.
The men's discount of 12 is very tight, a gun barrel.
In addition, new flights are inserted at the 10th

Links and parkland course in a great area in

We stayed here the last week of February and have played all three surrounding places.

Place State:
Perfect condition, well maintained fairways and greens.

Course layout:
This is contrary to the official description is not purely a links course. In the first 9 it only comes once in the proximity of the Atlantic, the other holes have more parkland character - but a very nice. Especially the tracks 6-9 are created fantastic.

From track 10 to move to the Atlantic. From 13 tea you have a clear view of the raging sea, but to fight from the 12 to the 15 with severe headwinds - especially the long, narrow corridor, which is overcome by Tee12 out, has cost us some strength and balls.

Clubhouse / Catering:
Neat, try to eat unfortunately we had no time. The only drawback, perhaps, is that neither the one nor the 18 come out right here. Viewed from the terrace "only" rambling on the 10th

Directions:
1 hour north of Lisbon - two other top courses within 10 minutes driving time.

Overall conclusion:
Must-Play! Also because the surrounding buildings was probably done here before the financial crisis and you do not look as opposed to many other places here on semi-finished or already decaying houses. Recommended is a timely reservation start time - end of February the place was packed!

Portugal `s flagship No. 1 "Praia del Rey"

Lisbon, December 2011 -

In 1997, the 18-hole links course (par 72) by Cabell B. Robinson, the American golf architect built for the most part in the Atlantic cliffs. Breathtaking views from Fairway, white dunes and sea golfers can stop for a moment during the game. The Lisbon region is absolutely justified by the IAGTO (International Association of Golf Tour Operators) 2007 "European Golf Destina-tion Of The Year" 18-hole course chosen.

In December to play the course at 18 degrees is a delight. The fairways are well maintained and varied created with deep bunkers and sand dunes. The 14-hole, a par 3 (137m yellow, red 75m) of 5 bins, which is defending the green with fabulous views of two old houses that show in the background the sea with its length. An absolute asset with unique recognition worldwide.

HCPs average golfer and single handicappers get their money to play the exciting Cours. In addition to the pines and mimosas you can feel the meantime the smell of the eucalyptus trees. The projected nature Berlenga Islands are to see some holes.

The hole 17 is provided with "570 m" is the second longest par 5 in Portugal and one of the longest in Europe.

From March-May fall 18-hole green fee Regular € 100 to € 125 for half the young people. Each euro is worth to play "Praia del Rey." In the off season the green fee is cheaper. Guests are always welcome, but when registering a membership card with handicap (H 28 / D 36) is required. Noticeable is the friendly welcome of the staff, whether in the office, in the pro shop or the buggy hire everyone was sympathetic information.

Portuguese food and beverage offers the authentic bar in the club house - freshly squeezed orange juice, wonderful wines, salads, nutritious meat and fish dishes. Desserts include the popular "pastéis de nata" filled with pudding or cinnamon ice cream.

The 5-star Hotel Bairro Alto, Lisbon City to stay offered a chance to explore the city on foot. The bar at the hotel has long been the after-work hotspot, the DJ plays alongside the classics on the charts and down. Over the roofs of the city, the hotel offers a breathtaking panoramic terrace to allow the enchanting views.

Here is the night life, hip culture and tradition. Whether legendary journeys by tram through the city or an elevator ride over the rooftops of Lisbon, this city is worth the discovery.

World class golf between pine trees and snow-white dunes!

Praia del Rey is one of the best that is on offer in Europe!
Forget Golf Course - rankings, for me this place is above the Atlantic a true golf dream. As for the green fee (which by the way you can get very affordable if you plan early!) It is worth every euro! This place is in my view before Monte Rei, Oitavos Dunes, San Lorenzo and Oceanico Vilamoura Old first in Portugal!

For us the best

Beginning of October 2010 there were, long journey from Lisboa but not on highway so stressful and definitely rewarding. Very neat place must also be empowered to demand prices. To a golfing experience along the Atlantic Ocean with wind then once against it. Despite the price was still quite a lot going on. But very relaxed.

Super Site

As a super place what care, fairways and views. The paths along the sea are a delight for the game and the eye "typically left" when the wind blows there is real pleasure to. The fairways towards the garden Course are also applied top and very beautiful. The buildings on the Course does not disturb the game and it's all wonderfully clean. For the many players who go all year about the place he is in top condition.
Tip: Reserve early tee time, it will be full from year to year, which is not surprising.

A dream on the Atlantic

A golf course as it is imagined. Part links course, partly Guard Course.
Always a challenge and a pleasure at the same time.
No wonder this place has received the highest rating internally.
Professional staff and clubhouse.
