Quinta do Lago South - latest comments and reviews

Kevin Viggiano 2025-10-02
We nearly missed this tee time due to an administrative error, however, the staff handled it brilliantly and allowed us to tee off just in time and play all 18 holes. The course, as expected, was impeccable and a joy to play.

David Coleman 2025-10-01
Very Good Course that is kept in very Good Condition.

Thomas Holley 2025-10-01
Beautiful landscape, and very nice design. The maintenance status was very high on fairways, first cut and especially tee boxes. Greens were in very good shape, but not that fast as expected. The bunkers should be free of stones - that's why only 9 points... It's a challenging golf course, but fair and doable ;-) Also goof driving range - it's from the mat, but with so many people, maybe better. Also service on the terrace of 19th hole was very good.

The round time is messy. The odor in the hazard on the course from time to time, There are so many flies.

Stefan Sedlmayr 2025-07-24

Mrs. Naiara 2025-06-14
Franciele was so helpful and comprehensive when we wanted to change our booking

Mrs Julia D Walker 2025-06-09
Great course, thoroughly enjoyed it again!

FRANCO 2025-06-07
Very beautiful, well-maintained course, but we can regret the saturation with a lot of traffic jams, which results in a duration of 5 hours to do 18 holes!

Lyne Gélinas 2025-05-22
Everything was ok

Michael Quinlan 2025-05-18
They asked that the voucher for buggy say paid not booked as they did not have us as having paid for one

Barry Spillane 2025-05-02
Great experience, course in very good condition and green fast.

Mark Hobson 2025-04-27
Stunning venue, and a course most handicaps can play without fear. The clubhouse is great, as is Quinta itself. Makes you want to wish you'd worked harder for the past 20 years so you could live afford a house there. Just genuinely love the place and a definite for next year (along with Monte Rei). Returning in June for a weekend break without golf with the other half, and have booked to go see a couple of apartments. Can't think of anything bad to say about the place, albeit it as a test of golf its not a touch on Monte Rei.

Tomasz Hamera 2025-04-20
Nice course, very hilly and tricky. Difficult to play in windy weather.

James Curran 2025-04-16
Excellent

Matt Kirby 2025-04-08
Excellent course.

Lauermann Andreas 2025-04-05
One of the best courses

Trevor Cibich 2025-03-24
The course was magnificent with some really beautiful holes. Customer service at shop and golf area was very hospital. It was a pity we teed of at nearly 2pm as it was very slow and we finished in the dark. An incredibly large resort. Tee off early if you can. And the course signage from hole to hole could have been better.

David Williams 2025-03-18
Friendly staff, 18 in under 4 hours on a superb golf course, what else could a golfer wish for.

John Little 2025-03-12
the course was in great condition despite the adverse weather and the staff were extremely helpful and friendly (the Portuguese way)

Gerald Nuessel 2025-03-07
schlechter Zustand der Grüns, Layout okay

Conor McCloskey 2025-02-27
Had a great day. ! Course is in great condition! Thanks to Teetimes for arranging

David Williams 2025-02-26
Excellent service, as a mixed twosome we were paired with another couple and had a delightful round on an excellent course. Played in a little over 4 hours and didn't see anyone either ahead or behind us all day.

Rod Fisher 2025-02-19
Great course in good condition, friendly staff and very interesting greens

Neil Kimberley 2025-02-12
Excellent course in really great condition. Despite the torrential rain we really enjoyed it.

Halper Johannes 2025-02-08
Sehr schnelle Grüns, Fairway und Abschläge Top

Kenny Alcroft 2025-01-30
Fantastic golf course. Helpful staff. Unfortunately windy was gusting up to 60 kmph. With the fast greens they were almost unplayable. But I would love to play again.

Mark Richards 2025-01-27
One word - fantastic. I've played it many many times and it is always immaculate. Such a great test of golf. We tee'd off as the sun came up at 7.36am and played a quick first 9 holes, but then found ourselves behind the back of a club competition and the next nine holes took 2.5hrs. The people in front of us were terrible and crazy slow. No respect for the people behind. It was actually a disgraceful way to conduct yourself, but that isn't the clubs fault.

Mark Brewer 2025-01-10
Great course.

Elizabeth Dunn-Butler 2025-01-06
Brilliant course, in amazing condition.

Special course. Challenging and beautiful

Clive Sims 2024-12-17
Course and Staff all very good.

James Nelson 2024-12-14
Course was very quiet which was great from my perspective. Course was in pretty good condition for the time of year. Greens were still very fast and all the staff I encountered were very polite and friendly.

Danielle De Clercq 2024-12-13
Very nice golf

VIRIATO MERINO BAENA 2024-12-03
Espectacular campo con unas vistas impresionantes Primera parte asequible al amateur y segunda parte más dura y difícil. -**-Spectacular course with breathtaking views The first part is easy for amateurs and the second part is harder and more difficult.

Richard Scott 2024-11-20
The day didn't start as well as we'd hoped as the course didn't have our booking but we're very accommodating and got us out at 7:28, 20 minutes early, which made it a bit of a rush but at least we got to play. The course was superb but unfortunately due to the recent rain buggies had to stay on the paths which made our round longer than it needed to be.

Kevin Maguire 2024-11-18
Lovely golf course its the first time we have played it in a number of years brought back good memories.

Ian Stokoe 2024-11-15
Excellent

Franz Schautzer 2024-11-12
Wonderfull course in perfect conditions! The greens were very fast, demanding! One of the best!

Steven Johnston 2024-11-12
Good pace of play as out early, course in very good condition, staff attentive

Tony Seaton 2024-11-07
Great course, whole set up well managed

Claudio Monaci 2024-11-03
Course in eccellente conditions, but we didn’t expect they were packing flights each 8 minutes as it’s really slow playing pace…

Wulf Viola 2024-10-29
Very nice and -above all- quick round of golf! It is possible at this time of the year! Thank you

Roy O'Callaghan 2024-10-29
Always very good.

Geoff Maskell 2024-10-26
Excellent course

Gareth Lush 2024-10-25
Unbelievable course. Honestly the best course all of us had played, and we've played 8 others in Portugal. Will play again here in a heartbeat! Service, course condition, club house were all superb.

Hermine Datlinger 2024-10-22
The golf cart did not work properly. Some greens and some fairways were not good.

Martin Stoker 2024-10-22
Wonderful facilities, staff, food, service and most importantly, golf course!

John Dylan Jones 2024-10-18
Outstanding golf course. Pity we could not take the buggies onto the course as we were restricted to the paths, this meant it was a 5 hour round.

BERND RALF VÖLSCH-HARDER 2024-10-18
Very good course. Yesterday only cartways! Long walking! Until now the best!

Stephanie Meyer 2024-10-14
The course overall was in a not so good condition. The greens ran very different and had a lot of divots.

Amanda Johnson 2024-10-14
always very very busy and slow but thats expected

Brendan Lynch 2024-10-12

It was a lot of fun playing this great course on our last day This course is amazing and in a very good condition

Tony Spencer 2024-09-17
greens and fairways good condition

Christine Patton 2024-09-14
Lovely course but the round took 5 1/2 hours, hence the low rating. We waited on every hole from the second. We only saw a Marshall on the 16th and he wasn’t interested. Spoiled the game.

Anthony Creedon 2024-09-13
Superb in every way. Could not find a fault. The staff were freindly and obliging, the course was great and in great condition. Altogether a great day out. Cant wait to olay again there.

Richard Thibo 2024-09-12
Too many people on the course. They start at hole 1 & 10. As you finish on 9 and go to 10, 3 flights were waiting to tee off. This kept on being the case for the whole back 9. The round took 4:15 (2 single hcp players)

Eamonn Ryan 2024-09-07
Quinta do Lago South is one of our favourite courses. Always in great condition and superbly maintained. Thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Ian Hartis 2024-08-25
Excellent course in very good condition

Conor McCloskey 2024-08-15
Great course! The round is slow so maybe space out the teetimes more?

Martin Burke 2024-08-09
Great course

Carole Drury 2024-06-17
Very slow play with lots of 2-balls following 4-balls

Nick Fry 2024-06-16
Brilliant course and well marshalled. Everything that the Faldo wasn’t yesterday.

Jon Cofield 2024-06-08
Excellent golf course in fantastic condition. It was very busy but staff were helpful and accommodating.

Michael Webber 2024-06-04
Brilliant condition, a must to play. Not the most interesting, but a good test

Eamon McCay 2024-06-03
Some essential maintenance being carried out around the edges of the greens ,not as good a condition that I had previously played it however really love the lay out in this course

Stephen Stratton 2024-05-30
Excellent course although some of the character has been taken away by the recent clearing of ground cover under the trees which I assume has been done to speed up play and therefor generate more revenue.

Paul Turner 2024-05-28
Normally my favourite course in the area but aprons are in a very poor state and fairways, though good, are not up to standard of the past

Benton 2024-05-28
Great course but too many people meaner that our second round was very slw

Paul Reynolds 2024-05-27
Always a pleasure to play at Quinta . 1st class operation all round.

Christine Patton 2024-05-25
Slow play spoiled what should have been a great round on a lovely course. We came in after 13 holes.

Richard Moore 2024-05-16
A great course, a true classic. Very much enjoyed the round. Would have preferred to start on the first tee, but other than that, a great round.

Paddy McConnell 2024-05-14
Staff are very unhelpful on terrace and loads of problems again with bills, service etc

John Farrall 2024-05-07
The high expectations as the star course on our tour were not met, be it crowded driving range to no pitching practice facility, to a relatively short (from yellows) and easier course than expected. it is nonetheless a very good course, but for the money and challenge we have may other more preferred courses, many of which are much cheaper.

Mark Hobson 2024-05-05
Utterley fantastic and a great challlenge for any level of golfer

sean Treacy 2024-04-27
Always enjoy playing Quinta south course , very scenic and in fantastic condition

Frans Pastoor 2024-04-23
A very nice course with some very exciting holes

Mark Schmitz 2024-04-22
one of the nicest places at the Algarve

Ben Mansfield 2024-04-14
Excellent.

Bruce Reardon 2024-04-11
Played all three Quinta do Lago courses now and the South is in excellent condition and very challenging.Pace of play was behind by 15-20 minutes at times and the martial didn’t seem to push a group 2 ahead of us which in turn held up the group behind us adding play pressure.Kind of lost my momentum at times which effected my game and our foursome. The reception desk group were very friendly and accommodating. Excellent golf carts with comfortable seats and gps course navigation. The restaurant food was excellent once again with friendly and accommodating staff.

Thomas Masson 2024-04-11
The course is usually always in pristine condition. Unfortunately we found today, it was well off being its best. The greens were excellent but the aprons surrounding the greens and some of the fairways were no where near the usual high standard of Quinta do Lago.

Stephen Maggs 2024-04-05
Very nice course and needs playing a couple of times to get the best out of the layout, one suggestion would be to open up earlier teetimes. the course was empty in front of us due to tee off just after the members time slot

Bernardette Heaney 2024-04-01
Interesting, beautiful course. Stunning views

Paul Parsons 2024-03-29
This is my favourite course in the area. Wonderful layout and always in great shape. You won’t be disappointed with any of the QDL courses.

Frances Trowell 2024-03-28
Beautiful course and experience. The service at club is excellent. Staff very helpful .

Winfried Arens 2024-03-27
Excellent golf course

Lauermann Andreas 2024-03-26
One of the Best

Petteri Salminen 2024-03-25
A beautiful and well maintained course. And friendly staff who makes you feel welcome.

Clive Sims 2024-03-25
We had a very good day and love the course. Minor comments: the fairways not quite as perfect as normal and the clubhouse closed at 7 which was before our pickup time.

Mr Herbert Keil 2024-03-23
Sehr gut gepflegter Golfplatz mit unter den Top 3 der Algarve. -**- Very well maintained golf course among the top 3 in the Algarve.

Horst Hubig 2024-03-13
Essensqualität ungenügend. Preise im Golfrestaurant zu hoch. Platz ist OK. Toiletten auf dem Platz in sehr guten Zustand. -**- Insufficient food quality. Prices in the golf restaurant too high. Course is OK. Toilets on the course in very good condition.

Shawn Oconnor 2024-03-11
Course in great shape plays a little slow but plenty of amazing houses to view while waiting! Take an extra club on second shot !

Andrew Chambers 2024-03-10
Everything very high quality as usual

Liam Wall 2024-02-29
fantastic, played all the courses in the Vilamoura area and surrounds over the last 13 years and found the QDL- south to be the best

Martin Engelbert 2024-02-18
Very friendly and reliable.

Alec Pearson 2024-02-14
First class experience

gary davis 2024-02-09
Great course as usual, due to poor weather we had it to ourselves

Gerd Martens 2024-02-07
Best Greens

Michael Hemingway-Rees 2024-01-29
Course was good, a few scruffy area’s tho. They are squeezing too many groups out which negatively affected the experience. There were three groups waiting on the 2nd tee and pace of play was slow with everyone waiting. Tee times should be at 10 minute intervals instead of 8 minutes on a Championship Course with 4 balls. The bar also shut at 6pm and they wouldnt serve a drink when we arrived at 5.55pm.

Johannes Halper 2024-01-28
Platz in Ordnung, Spielzeit über fünf Stunden. -**- Space in order, playing time over five hours.

Mr. Grant Prior 2024-01-27
The round was ridiculously slow because we were behind a pro-am tournament. We need to be made aware of events like this before booking

Matthew Coates 2024-01-24
Greens not as good as the other courses but this was down to recent maintenance. Still a great course and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Stephen Goodall 2024-01-22
Good condition, Staff unfriendly, facilities were good, pass of play was shocking would hate to see it in the summer

Graham Sims 2023-12-23
Excellent and challenging course, greens and fairways in excellent condition. Only slight negative was that the ‘rough’ immediately off the fairways was long with no first cut. Clubhouse excellent and staff friendly and helpful

Claudio Monaci 2023-12-06
South course is in excellent conditions despite winter conditions. All the staff is very kind and helpful. A great golf experience as always

Susan Appleby 2023-11-24
Good course again. 10 min intervals on tee would be better

Susan Appleby 2023-11-23
Much more enjoyable golf with starting on 1st and 10th tees. And no waiting.

Ian Stokoe 2023-11-18
Very good condition. Pace good.

Stuart Riccalton 2023-11-17
Quinta is the 'ultimate golf experience' in the Algarve. The recent makeover on the South has resulted in a must play course but you need to have the game to play well. The amenities are top class and have everything a player needs including a great clubhouse. Golf buggies are expensive.

Mark Hughes 2023-11-14
This was my second time playing Quinta South. Our group of 10 players all agreed that this was the most disappointing course of the four courses we played on this trip. There were a lot of approaches to greens with poorly patched of turf surrounding them, which made it difficult around the greens if you were slightly long or short and generally looked scruffy, especially given the green fees. The course is a true challenge as a championship course should be. Unfortunately there was a major problem with mosquitoes, something I’ve never experienced in the Algarve before! Clubhouse, practice facilities and buggies etc are consummate with the fees charged.
