Overpriced and overrated
Reviewed February 17, 2017
Played the course only because others in the region were nor available. Since my last passage many things have changed and some remain as in the past. Clubhouse? Wrong question, Loks like a temporary shelter, changing room or shower - non existent, respectively apparently at a nearby hotel. Course condition? What is that? Greens were sanded and aeried. One Greenfee (reduced due to the greens) plus electro trolley a proud € 72.00. Not worth another visit rather drive another hour and play in the Obidos region great courses for lower Greenfees! !!

3 stars at most
Reviewed September 23, 2023
..actually 2 5 fairways ok, greens too. Tees "thanks" to Bermuda grass as if they were freshly dug, the rough, also the space between the tees and the start of the fairway, about 80-100m of steppe. But the worst thing we found was that obvious beginners without licenses were allowed to play with beer in their heads. We looked at it for 5 hours and then gave up at 16. Marshall? Not seen..

Beautifully situated
Reviewed April 18, 2023
Beautiful stock of trees, interesting design, six par 3, some of them tricky to play, greens fast and challenging.
Condition of the discounts bad, bunkers with different types of sand, mostly poorly maintained.
Driving range: mat tees, partly worn, otherwise ok, unfortunately not a real short game area on the whole system.
Not well suited for serious training week.
Reception and starter very friendly, Grrenfee reasonable.

Good hotel place with restoration
Reviewed April 13, 2022
Beautiful place which leads to the coast and is not very hilly.
Easy to play and yet some greens that require clean distance shots for a good score.
Unfortunately, some of the follow-up tees are too close to the greens that have been played, which can be critical.

You cannot play golf on the construction site
Reviewed June 28, 2021
In front of the hotel and around the square, building is going on like crazy. Noise, disturbance, dust... unbearable. The space itself is too narrow. Twice you have to cross fairways, twice even tees. These are often very close together or directly on the previous green. Overall way too high rated. Only the greens were good. Some holes are barely playable, narrow, without a landing zone or, as with the 18, so restricted by the pine trees that you can hardly see or play the fairway.

Varied course
Reviewed September 17, 2020
Place played in September 2020, as a hotel guest pays 55 € per person - which is enough in my opinion. Cart is not necessary as it is rather flat.
I found the course quite varied, great hole 4 with a sea view, sometimes narrow fairways where you can leave the driver in the bag. I think they got the best out of the situation. With HCP 14 you also have to play 14, because you can't afford to make many mistakes. So everything is fair. It bothers a bit the lovelessness with all the "trappings", clubhouse, paths, etc. so I would rather give 3.5 stars, but if in doubt "for the accused". Always an option when it's on the way.

Reviewed June 21, 2019
We, hcp 4 & 21, played the course June 19. The criticism regarding the hints to the next hole were well respected. Each hole is well signposted several times. We immediately found each lane without detours.
The training possibilities are modest. Otherwise everything is great. The condition of the condition much better than eg B Estoril. We had the place mostly for ourselves. From 15.30 Greenfee reduction and fast jam-free game, while we were waiting for Estoril 5h 40 minutes as a 3 flight only.

A place to play, but you do not have to go to Portugal.

Pretty, well maintained place with only a few memorable holes.
But better than the primitive clubhouse can expect.
Showering before flying home is impossible! (1 shower 50x50 cm)! Why we had to wait for 7.18 in completely empty space to 7.25 (reserved tee time), knows only the starter.
Only the starter.

Shame about the beautiful surroundings
Reviewed April 2, 2019
From location and environment the place is really very nice. Unfortunately, commerce is on the rise. Things like clubhouse or driving range are considered as necessary extras. The flights are squeezed into an 8 minute grid and to top it all off, a game time table is handed out, in which after 2 lanes a delay of 10 minutes and in the end more than one hour existed. Why?
The course is too narrow, the tracks compared relatively short and then there are the many overlaps and crossings. It just can not be faster. If only one flight starts searching, the jam is preprogrammed. Nice that on the time table to find the hint is that you will intervene on the part of the game management accelerating. However, the always visible Marshal was only busy with his cell phone and did not care about the gameplay.
Too bad, because the place deserves better. Some beautiful tracks and then again the rip-off with the final drink. 10 € for a beer and an Icetea are a bit much.

A disappointment
Reviewed May 1, 2018
A promising location, but even the arrival in front of the club container rather gives rise to the presumption of a temporary. The best thing was the quality of the fairways - with only a few bald spots. The driving range and the paths between the fairways give the impression that the golf course is a necessary evil to develop the urbanization. The extremely frequent crossing of the tracks and paths causes a lot of unrest on the course. Unfavorable transitions interfered with the flow of the game. So more interactive Beggenungsstätte - had something of Mickey Mouse.
The greens were indeed fast in typical Portuguese - but if no Pitchmarks are even to produce at the highest of all hints that is only frustrating.
We will not play this place again.

In the month of March, the weather north of Lisbon can be tricky. We had storm and rain, but also a little sunburn. The course is in good condition, the greens are fast and the bunkers are deep. It is already very busy and under 4.5 hours, the place is so hard to play. BUT: do not despair after 3 holes (about 1 hour) - then it's faster! 2-3 times you have to cross other tracks - but I did not find very disturbing. Overall: friendly staff and really good to play!

Exercise options rather limited, clubhouse acts provisionally.
Place us scenically very much, in good condition. Varied, but partially intersecting holes (to go from the 10 to the 11, one has to traverse 9 ...) But if you otherwise has no problems...

Was a bit disappointed about the place, not really good, but also not really bad. Railways something crisscross and well attended by the neighboring hotels, and not with the very best players. In memory with just a tee remained in a corridor but eventually I was also glad that the round was rum.

Only for hotel guests
Reviewed October 2, 2015
We played the course in the past few years every now and then, and it is getting worse. No wonder, because there are more and more players rushed across the square, whether beginners, seniors or single handicapper, for course maintenance is no time left. The main thing wrong the cashier. Here, everyone gets the space and times of 6 hours are not uncommon. Complaints management not surly or unresponsive. It is interested not. With demeanor well golf has little to do.
There are thankfully beautiful in the vicinity, well-kept spaces and you should think twice about whether you want to waste his precious vacation time here. Because it is not inexpensive and the clubhouse offers a place corresponding to the lean, high-priced canteen kitchen.

Not so great...
Reviewed September 5, 2015
The place is overrun by the hotel guests, priced green fees, maintaining state disappointing. As has unfortunately deteriorated much in the last 10 years. Meanwhile, some villas are very close to the fairways and the greens have been built. The food in the clubhouse is good, but quite expensive (120 euro for a better lunch for two). Better to go to the coast to nearby Furnas do Guincho.

Disappointing
Reviewed March 22, 2015
Have played in mid-March 2015,4 places around Lisbon (Penha Longa, Praia del Rey, Oitavos) and Marinha Quinta was by far the weakest place. Totally overpriced at 95 € and designed illogical and meaningless. The orbits intersect partially and continuously run any person of the fairways. The driving range has to be reached by car, the ball machine ejects only half of the balls, with one of balls actually can not really talk. Also, it was obviously an impossibility, a player who was ill at short notice, to remove from the reservation, it would have to be paid in full, even though we were overall still to sixth. The place of white is sometimes not to play on the tee boxes, because branches are directly in front of the tee. Value totally inappropriate, no recommendation...

The place in a good condition and has some exciting holes. But the reception was very unfriendly. We booked through the tour operator in advance and paid for - including buggy and delivered our voucher. After (!) Of the round again 40 euros were charged us for the buggy. The order of the holes has been changed, now you go back and forth across the course and crossing the fairways of other holes. The Restaurant: very friendly service, good quality but astronomical prices. As for me there is better around: Penha Longa, Estoril or Oitavos.

I have played with 2 friends from 23.2.2014-26.2.2014 this space. The place is GWES in good condition, despite the rain's at night!
The space very abweckslungsreich and has a hole for every thing gets stuck in your head even after the holiday. A minus was maybe the short takeoff sequence of under 5 minutes, which ensured that there was a constantly accumulate that has come through different groups of 2,3 and 4 Persohnen to wear very much!

The course is flat and can be run without problems. It has some interesting holes. If the short par 3 appear so easy with this wonderful / and or water / sand are protected. The site has mature trees which is very nice, but can also be difficult. The most beautiful view is at hole 13 with a wonderful view of the sea. On the weekend, very busy during the week better.

Maintained beautiful place top
Reviewed May 6, 2012
We played the course on 23/04/12 and found it in top condition before. The greens are super fast and very well maintained, which was true also for the fairways. The tracks are very varied created with interesting par 3 tracks. What was not so good, is the routing of tea to tea, here you cross other paths and to be careful that you do not mind the game. Is just an old ingrown place, but you should play the essential. The club house is very modern and overpriced the drinks, beer € 6, therefore also very poorly attended.
We lived on the square, Onyria Golf and Spa, highly recommended.

Beautiful Place
Reviewed September 11, 2011
The condition of the course (played on 31.8.2011) was very good, I could not find dried fairways etc. before, and the greens were in top condition. The holes are varied, but the routing between the tracks is sometimes confusing when the place (like me) has never played. Lane 1 does not start - as someone posted in 2009 - at the driving range, but at the clubhouse next to the newly built hotel. The driving range - as is usually quite expensive in Portugal with 4 € per basket balls - is so far away again at level 11 Tip: there is a sunset from 15.30 tariff for € 47.50. Until the end of September for this low price you can play 18 holes and that's a really good price for this place. From October it would be to dark quickly, so the discounted price then probably only enough for 9 holes.

Almost none!
Reviewed September 6, 2009
I know the circuit very well for fifteen years now and have played there at least fifty times. The most important thing: The place is very nice and there are no boring 08/15-Löcher. The terrain is flat and covered with pine trees. There are some ponds (or lakes?) That must be transferred. The fairways are wide enough, you can often tee off with the driver. Spectacularly is a par-3 over a ravine and across a par-3 over water `s. There is "do or die!" Five! Par-5 holes are then the test for long hitters. The holes are sometimes a bit confusing in a row, that one can get lost in some places before, since the signs were missing before "Next Tee".
Since then you have renumbered the holes - the old elf is now the new one - is also the driving range as it should be right next to the first tee.
Criticisms: 1 How often in the south, the range the mats in a dilapidated condition and the token was neglected, too expensive. Second Ponds are only nice if water is in it! Since it was previously too lax, the water level was lacking, today this has improved.
Conclusion: It is a bit old Come, unconventional scale Trent Jones course, but the ease with the many new places can compete there in the area. It's great fun to play there, it's worth it!
