Alto Golf Course
Alto Golf & Country Club, located in Portugal’s Western Algarve, is a premier golf and country club resort, set in beautifully landscaped gardens with villas, apartments and townhouses, many with superb views of the sea, the golf course or the fabulous gardens.|The winding fairways and elevated greens reflect Sir Henry’s golfing philosophy of providing low handicap players with a testing game and still affording plenty of enjoyment for players at average club level and providing satisfaction and inspiration for beginners. The opening nine holes offer fine views over the bay of Lagos. The back nine, set on rolling slopes, include the remarkable Henry Cotton Challenge, the longest Par 5 in Europe.

Very difficult golf course, with quite a lot of blind spots. No map pf the course on the scorecard, or at the departure of the holes.

The reception staff were friendly, as was the Starter. The course has dried out very well after all the rain. Still some trees to be cleared from the course periphery after the recent storms.

Course played much better than expected, even although it has been very wet in January/February 2026. Hole 16 was difficult, apart from that not too bad, a few wet patches here and there.

The staff are very friendly nice people. It’s a solid test of golf which is walkable as the gaps between tees and greens aren’t huge.
General quality of the course is good.
It’s always part of our annual visit to this part of the Algarve.

This was the best condition we have ever seen Alto in. The greens were true and fast, if you had a down hill putt, god help you. Plenty of grass on the fairways, very few bad lies and if did get one it was in the rough, the rough itself is tough to play feel shots out of. A great test today. Small greens and plenty of holes that require shot shaping.
