San Lorenzo Golf Course
San Lourenco Golf is a par 72 course located in Quinta do Lago and is considered one of the best and most beautiful golf courses in Europe. The fact that this is an award-winning course is no coincidence. Bordering with the breathtaking Ria Formosa Natural Park, some of its holes are blessed with what can only be described as exquisite beauty, complemented with salt water lakes. If the first holes present no major surprise or challenges, after the 3rd, closer to the estuary, San Lourenco starts to reveal itself. After the 5th hole, a par-3 and the course's shortest, you're introduced to a dolgleg, stroke 1 sixth hole where your main challenge will be to avoid the dense shrub, so make sure you get your distances just right. As you get to the 7th, life is by no chance made easier but you still get the bonus of the outstanding views from this elevated tee before you have to focus on how to get around that green almost entirely surrounded by water.
On the back nine, the 12th is the most challenging hole on San Lorenzo, featuring a deep chasm along the left of a very narrow fairway. Holes 13th to 16th also face the ocean with the latter proving to be the most demanding par-3, featuring a whole 180 m carry to a shallow green. Seventeenth is, again, extremely beautiful but still falls short of the beauty that awaits you on the last hole. It is a great finale and one that will remain in your memory as it has an excellence that is renowned worlwide. It is, without a doubt, a course for special occasions, that will provide you with unforgetably beautiful moments. Of course such a unique course had to have unique requirements concerning the booking of your green fees and that is only possible if you are a guest at the 5 star Dona Filipa Hotel nearby or by contacting a selected few like Tee Times who will make the required arrangements to book what will be one of the most special games of golf you will ever play in your life.

This is probably the best course in the Algarve in my opinion. The scenery and layout of the course are excellent as well as the quality of the greens. Some of the paths are a little bumpy in a buggy and there is no club house currently. However we played millionaires golf with nobody else on the course. I suppose that will change when the club house and associated apartments are completed -as will the price!!

After the fire, the stuff does everything to make us have a nice golf course, greens in good condition, pathways for the buggies pretty destroyed. But all in all a very nice experience.
We certainly turn to play

A great experience! The golf course is superb and in great condition. The cart paths are a bit rough in places but we knew that. We also knew there was no clubhouse but they gave us a very nice lunch pack. The staff were excellent, very friendly

Two very nice holes but they are not making up the bad condition of the course. Course needs an urgent renovation, not nearly worth the money.

Golf course was fine although some tees were messy. Greens were good.
Understand the problems about the clubhouse but the temporary arrangements are poor. Coffee shop not open for early golfers and toilet facilities are inadequate

Despite the lack of Clubhouse, the whole experience was very good. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and the complimentary lunch pack was a good gesture to ease the lack of eating facilities.
Additionally, the course was is very good condition and greens were excellent.
Finally, my only downside of the experience was the lack of changing and bathroom facilities together with poor car parking facilities.
Otherwise , a great day!??????
