Miss it already
We are now back home after your well organisiert holiday to Almancil.
Everething was great the Hotel Dona Filipa, the shuttlebus to San Lorenzo and Pinheiros Altos, from and to Air Port and the tee times.
At home we are missing the blue sky and summer temperaturen.
My wife and I thank you for your perfect organisation.
Great hotel, probably the 4th visit here
Dona Filipa:
Great hotel, probably the 4th visit here, everything works. The breakfast is very good and the dinner was also very good. The room was spacious, although there was no heat from the air conditioner, but it was not freezing.
Pestana Dom Joao II:
A solid hotel where everything works. Good breakfast and excellent value for money.
The golf courses:
They are all familiar and good. San Lorenzo is my personal favorite, restaurant is Ok. Quinta Do Lago courses are great, restaurants is good. My husband liked Pinheiros Altos, Sea Bass in golf-restaurant is very good. Vale Da Pinta is also a nice course for club players and restaurant is good.
Perfect
We had a wonderful trip. The hotel Dona Filipa was fab, breakfast was so good and the staff were super friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Both golf courses were excellent. We had high expectation of San Lorenzo given its rating but were still impressed with the condition for mid-November. On Pinheros Altos, we had no expectation on this course but were really impressed with how playable it was, lots of different holes but the course, again, was in a great condition. We would definitely look to play both of these again next time we travel.
The airport transfer was perfect, signage was clear and the bus/ car was very clean – no complaints there whatsoever
I guess the only negatives (which you cannot help) is that we found the area to be quite expensive, particularly the bars and restaurants down next the Dona Felipa – more expensive than other parts of the Algarve. And not having a shop/ supermarket nearby (walking distance) was a bit inconvenient. But these are things you can’t do anything about.
All you arranged for us was perfect.
All you arranged for us was perfect. The Golf Clubs came just in time and were in good conditions. We enjoyed playing San Lorenzo and Pinheiros Altos; The Tees and the fairways at Penina need water. After changing the Hotel-room we got a wonderfull renovated room with pool- view at Hotel Penina. So we enjoyed our Holiday in Portugal. Thank you for all arrangements.
We are very satisfied
We enjoyed our time at the Hotel Dona Filipa and everything was well arranged!
Although we stayed in a non renovated room, we found it spacious with comfy beds and a nice shower.
The breakfast had a very wide choice and the restaurant prepared good meals of all sorts!
The golf shuttle was flexible, and we had some good and interesting rounds at both courses we enjoyed (San Lorenzo & Pinheiros Altos)
We are very satisfied and know to find you in the future!
Thank you for organizing this trip!
a real 5-star hotel: the reception, the room with amenities and the service is excellent
Thanks to the whole Portugal golf team and especially to Sara for professional and customer oriented service. We appreciate it. Our stay in Portugal has been enjoyable and even though there has been some (read many ;-) ) rainy days it has been fun.
Golf hotel Marina Club & Palmares was a surprise to us, as we didn’t know beforehand that it was an apartment with cooking possibilities: it was well-equipped, and it was nice to make our own dinner after golf.
From Pestana Dom João II it was easy to walk to Alvor restaurants and the room was spacious enough.
At this moment we are staying at Hotel Palacio Estoril which is a real 5-star hotel: the reception, the room with amenities and the service is excellent.
Regarding the golf courses (Palmares Golf Course; Pinheiros Altos; San Lorenzo; Penina Championship, Gramacho, Vila Sol, Pinta & Silves): they are all nice with their own style. We understand that it is spring and the course conditions are not perfect but in Finland there is snow and no opportunity to play, so these are just great! :)
You never know if there will be new opportunities to have nice time in Portugal.
