Salgados Golf Course - latest comments and reviews

Mark Boon 2025-11-20
We always enjoy Salgados. The greens are excellent running fast and true. If only golfers carried a pitch mark repairer and actually used them, this is not a fault of the course apart from them policing it. The fairways were excellent and probably some of the best we have played off in the UK and Portugal. A great course and easy to walk.

Nice course in good condition. Many hazards, course managing is helpful. Fast greens, funny to play, if you have enough balls in your bag

Jon pinder 2025-11-07
Very enjoyable challenging course. Very flat but includes lots of lakes! Take plenty of balls. Lovely par 3 on the back 9 surrounded by water.

Sverre Phillip Olsen 2025-11-03
Good Service

Robert Horton 2025-10-27
Just seemed to want to get as many people on the course as possible and that told in the 5 hour round. Not a place I would rush back to.

Red Newberry 2025-10-21
Lovely course tight and have to think about every shot as makes you use course management

Thomas Holley 2025-10-17
A very beautiful course with varied fairways. Something completely different in this area – flat and relatively numerous water hazards. Everything is surrounded by many tall palm trees. Only the tee boxes are covered with the wrong type of grass. Too long and uneven. The greens need a bit more maintenance – the wrong type of grass is showing through here as well. Unfortunately, there's no range – just a net for hitting your own balls. The food in the clubhouse and the service from the staff were very good. Between 7 and 8, but very special...so 8 :-)

Harry Chandler 2025-10-16
Nice moderately challenging course. Some very interesting holes with a lot of water and some less interesting holes. Greens in good condition and reasonably fast, but tee boxes weren't in great condition (on the 10th grass was covering the white tee markers making it impossible to tee off from there). Very slow pace of play with no marshals or HCP requirement and we were asked to delay our tee time for 15mins as the course was backed up. We followed a group of 16 that all watched each other tee of on par 3s to do a nearest the pin which added ~1hr to the round. 8 minutes between tee times was too little for the quality of golfers and their etiquette on the course. Putting green and nets were good. Short game area was unmaintained. Nice clubhouse, with good selection of food and drinks. Would recommend this course if you are with some friends who don't play regularly and your staying in Albufiera, otherwise avoid and go for any of the many better courses in the Algarve.

Excellent experience from clubhouse, staff, course all excellent

Andrew Robinson 2025-10-14
for such a busy course it was in excellent condition

Ursula Haller 2025-10-13
Just to let you know, we are so happy we played Salgado today! It was an amazing course and everyone was so reassuring as we were so nervous starting.

Johnny Graham 2025-10-13
Very enjoyable

Frank Claus 2025-10-05
Ein besonderer Golfplatz voller Palmen und mit Wasser an jedem Loch. Wenn man den Schlag verzieht, braucht man nur sehr selten zu suchen, meist ist er einfach im Wasser und damit verloren. Leider waren sehr viele Gruppen unterwegs und wir brauchten dennoch mehr als 5 Stunden für eine Runde.

Norman King 2025-09-27
Everything was perfect. We arrived at course and only had to check in

Bryan Leahy 2025-09-23
Excellent course.

Cormac O\'Conaire 2025-09-23
On arrival we were not told in reception that we would need to start on the 10th tee box, only when we picked up the buggies five minutes before our tee time. the course was way over booked. it took us 40 minutes to play two holes (10th and 11th). when on the 5th holes the group behind us hit the ball right on top of us, nearly hitting up. This group were very loud and shouting where being drunk. No ranger in sight. We will not be coming back to Salgado's again and will advice our friends the same.

Brian Doyle 2025-09-15
The course this year was in the best condition I've seen it in for a while.

Ortmann Dominik 2025-09-13
Nice course, payed once 25 yrs ago and now better but no need to play again

Irma Siegers 2025-09-04
Very Nice course!!

Declan Mccarthy 2025-09-04
In reasonably good condition when we played 4/9/25. Tee boxes are very spongy type grass. Unusual! Position off tee vital here and driver not necessary every hole. All in all not a bad experience with good buggies and friendly staff

Irma Siegers 2025-09-03
Very Nice course!!

Adrian Palmer 2025-09-02
A fair course which has fairly poor ‘textured’ greens. The fairways were in good condition and the tees were tidy. The hire clubs were worn and old. My bag was threadbare. Staff were friendly enough and the bar was good.

Georges da Violante 2025-08-12
Great golf course

Lee Grice 2025-07-26
Great course. Fantastic greens

Sam Smith 2025-07-25
Salgados I’ve played many times before and always been a pleasant course. The staff were able to rectify the confusion and supply all buggies and equipment needed with a small change of tee time.

David M Tate 2025-07-10
Very difficult course.. water on 16 holes. Very helpful staff. Enjoyed the day.

Stuart Webster-spriggs 2025-07-10
Well maintained course. The early tee time was beneficial Great staff and facilities

Edgar Lehmann 2025-07-09
Friendly and correct serviceteam

Nick Rate 2025-06-25
Looking a little tired

Simon Reece 2025-06-10
This was a first visit for us as we usually play the Vilamoura courses. (Takes about 40 mins in cab) Good set up and terrace for pre-round drinks. If you dont like water on the course, this isnt the place for you! The photos dont tell the full story, there is water on almost every hole. We scored well but it makes you think, especially as the wind was blowing in the afternoon - beware. Great test, defo worth a visit. (handicaps for our group 11-18)

Eoghan Lenihan 2025-06-07
Great course

Harald Wirths 2025-05-30
I ove to enter the course and clubhouse. When you go through the clubhouse and see all the palm trees it is incredible. I really love to play this course. Challenging but not unfair.

Geoff Dobinson 2025-05-22
On time, friendly staff, buggies ready when we arrive and a nice course.

Ian Holland 2025-05-20
All good - no issues at all

Cliff Morgan 2025-05-18
Best course we played and very, very challenging. Water a great feature on nearly all holes. Greens were true and very quick, probably the best we have played in the Algarve.

Paul innes 2025-05-06
Played twice May 2025. Course has had alot of work done recently and can still see evidence of it in places but course is still very good. The greens are immaculate and have a good pace on them. Challanging course with all the water but good. We did have a bit pressure put on us to speed up as the 3 and 2 ball ahead of us had gained a hole but understandably seen as we were a 4 ball. Not ideal feeling like you have to race around the course as it takes the fun out of it and personally made me play poor due to lack of concentration. All in all a great course though and would play again

Normand Hotte 2025-04-24
At first, the lady at the Proshop counter asked us to pay for our green fees, we had to tell her that we had paid for them in advance. I was disappointed that our golf package didn’t not include the golf cart (buggy). Other than that, we had a good overall experience at Solgado golf course. I wish they would provide drinking water on the course.

Eric Pigeon 2025-04-21
Average. Dangerous layout. A lot of crossover golfing.

Paul griffiths 2025-04-19
Staff very friendly 5 Star

Jamie O Driscoll 2025-04-01
Poor experience due to renovations and weather conditions but I'd like to thank Simon Brice who followed up and provided amazing support to my group and I to resolve the matter. He provided a first class service and has a very personable manner when communicating by phone and email. As a result, I will be recommending tee.time PT to all my friends and family. Thank you again Simon!!

Paul Mullane 2025-03-30
I played this course twice the first time it was raining all week and the course was wet and soft but still playable 6 days later the weather had improved and the course was in excellent condition staff very friendly and accommodating

John Fennell 2025-03-29
I found this course very tight, with severe penalty for wayward shots.

Roland Alistair Harrison 2025-03-26
Although the course is in current work to improve it. Its in great ccondition and staff can't do enuf for you, highly recommend

Grant Northover 2025-03-16
Superb. Awful weather. Truly. Somehow got us on the course. On course great service and everyone had a smile on their face.

Doris 2025-03-15
A very nice course directly at the sea. Some challenging waterholes. Beautiful setting with a lot of palm trees. Unfortunately not in a great shape - I assume due to the wheater. But absolutely worth playing. Extremely friendly staff.

Gregory Butler 2025-03-12
Course was in very poor condition apart from the green which were excellent. Company as usual was excellent.

Richard schmit 2025-03-12
great course and clubhouse.

Jason Walker 2025-03-09
Played my first eagle Pity we could only play the back 9 twice on our arrival

jo maddams 2025-02-14
We had a lovely time. Although they were working on the course it was better than we expected

Alexander Whyte 2025-02-02
Course is being renovated but greens are good,€35 with buggy=bargain

Liam Weadick 2025-01-29
in a very poor condition due to ongoing maintaining work

Kieran Cummins 2025-01-26
Only giving a 7 because course is under going lots of renovation and only found on the morning we could only play back 9 twice. Other than that as usual everything else was perfection.

Rachel Milne 2024-11-14
Lovely course really enjoyed the day as always. Didn't mind doing 9 holes twice

Klaus Fuchs 2024-11-12
Wegen Umbauarbeiten waren nur 9 Loch spielbar und die dann 2 x. Es gab weder eine Vorankündigung noch eine Mitteilung vor dem Start an der Golf-Rezeption. Wir haben es von ortskundigen Mitspielern an Tee 1 erfahren. Eine Servicekraft mit buggybar wollte uns an einer Engstelle am Abschlag zwingen zurück zu setzen, obwohl sie uns frühzeitig gesehen hatte und wir schon aufgeteet hatten... unmögliches Verhalten...

Michel Fournier 2024-11-03
Very nice course

Chris Robertson 2024-10-24
All good as always - played many times

Charles Valade 2024-10-19
Nice flat course. Difficult to play the course for the first time not knowing the layout. Would help if the carts had GPS.

James Spencer 2024-10-17
Excellent course, well kept, very enjoyable day. Nice club house to end the round

Keith Browne 2024-10-16
Course was in Excellent condition despite the amount of rain that had fallen over the last few days.

Westley Macey 2024-10-13
I thought the course was in excellent condition and even though the weather was very indifferent the course held up well good staff and facilities everybody in our party enjoyed it after the rain stopped

Fergus Armstrong 2024-10-10
Course in Great condition as always.

Carine Bestenheider 2024-10-09
Very good

Eamonn Ryan 2024-10-09
Course in great condition. We had a most enjoyable day.

Stephanie Meyer 2024-10-08
Very beautiful golf course with lots of water in a very good condition.

Dave Sheehan 2024-10-08
Very nice golf course, well finished.

Bruce Carrigan 2024-10-07
Had an issue at check in over buggies, but they corrected the issue and apologized. The golf course was well manicured. It's a very busy course. They put alot of rounds through everyda

Ronnie Carswell 2024-10-04
A good challenge with lots of water in play. Not so well maintained as other courses in the area.

Maurice Rogers 2024-09-24
The course was in reasonable condition given the dry summer they have had on the Algarve. Take plenty of balls with you as any errant shot is likely to be wet !

Brian Doyle 2024-09-11
I've been using Tee Times for a number of years now and have always had a very positive experience

Monika Franck 2024-09-07
We enjoyed our game But there was problems before The starter talled me, that we're too late They had wrong tee time We had to discuss, but afterwards we could start abd all was fine

Ian Beattie 2024-09-05
We were disapointed with the recent maintenance work carried out on the course, the greens were heavily sanded, so not good, and club management did not advise of the course condition prior to our round

MR RICHARD FLETCHER 2024-08-22
Great experience and staff and a well kept course. Would recommend it

Paul Antony Chapman 2024-08-12
Only one problem. A fourball that stopped for lunch after 9 were slotted back in on 10 as we left the 9th green. They were very slow and wouldn’t let us through (we were a 2 ball). They were also very poor golfers. Poor decision to allow this. Marshall did nothing to resolve this even though I highlighted the problem. Bit of a shame.

Neil Macklin 2024-07-28
Great course ..loads of water , but that only added to the challenge.

Kieran Cummins 2024-07-23
Excellent. We arrived a little early and they where able to get us out ahead of our time. Can't wait to return.

John Brouwer 2024-07-10
Problems at the start. Mistakes made and confusion between start from hole 1 and hole 10. Start too late

Michael Millership 2024-07-05
Great experience as always complimentary iced towels during round a great touch

Dirk Goeminne 2024-07-01
Starting time was not respected, one hour later.

Conor McCloskey 2024-06-28
Nice course enjoyed the early morning round

Nigel Hough 2024-06-17
Fast greens but with some unrepaired pitch marks . Fairways would definitely benefit from more watering . Sand in bunkers very stoney and coarse. Very challenging for a higher handicapper like myself who was also off their game and lost far too many balls otherwise , we’re lucky to be out here playing these courses. Good organisation as always from Jim - thank you.

Stuart Leonard 2024-06-17
A nicely maintained golf course but with a strong wind a very difficult course to not lose quite a few balls

Ian Godfrey 2024-06-16
I enjoy playing Salgados, but the tee time at 2.00pm was too late. We also trailed a slow group so the round took 4 hours 50 minutes and by the time we finished all the earlier groups had left. Would much prefer tee times to be earlier 11.00 to 12.00 and the group less than 40 players so the early starters have not all left when finished.

Paul Toner 2024-06-15
Course was absolutely fine. Greens tended to be a wooley and therefore slow. Overall score received reflects the person not the course.

Carl Nixon 2024-06-15
Course in good condition, greens very good, pace of play a little slow

Martin Potter 2024-06-10
Lovely clubhouse , course very average , to expensive for a average course , Algarve golf may price it’s self out the market in near future

Ian Godfrey 2024-06-10
Always a good challenge, easy to get to and well priced.

Peter Tweed 2024-06-09
Very good

Steve Grant 2024-06-09
Greens a little slower than normal but in very good condition

Brady Diplock 2024-06-08
Greens were great condition and great speed. Tee boxes and fairways also very good. Good days golf.

Mick Bradwell 2024-06-05
Great course, plenty of challenge, greens were first class. Would definitely play again on next visit.

Evan thomas 2024-05-28
Realy happy with response on enquiry into booking & was sorted very easy!

Stefan Faesser 2024-05-21
Salgados is a very nice course and all the people there were extrem friendly. The Clubhouse is very nice, Service perfect. Always valuable to get back there.

Matt Stubbs 2024-05-20
Good fun course take plenty of balls

John Redmond 2024-05-20
Good fun golf course. Way too expensive

Anthony Fitzgerald 2024-05-17
I did make it clear that my wife was not an experienced golfer and that we would want to play in a 2 ball. They tried to put us in a 4 ball but at the last minute found a 2 ball slot. The booking was otherwise perfect and all the pickups were right on time.

Mark Deverell 2024-05-13
Nice and improving golf course, greens and condition of the course were both good , bunkers terrible. Nice club house and bar, staff were great. Everyone enjoyed the day.

Cathy Proto 2024-05-10
Course in good condition. Really helpful and friendly staff everywhere. Good food too.

Jo Darton 2024-05-10
Very good, chairs need updating outside but apart from that great golf and greens fast

John Coates 2024-05-10
First time playing this course and it was very impressive. The course was in excellent condition throughout and a decent pace of play was kept. The only downside for us was that the kitchens were closed when we finished.our round at 05-30pm so we could not get any food.

William Townson 2024-05-03
A smooth booking process. Managed get in the Q before a coach load came in! After some negotiations and tactical changes I and another player were allocated to 10th tee. This fitted well and no problem from 18 back to 1. Condition of course good. A real challenging layout, lots of water and strategic bunkers. Greens quick with subtle breaks. A good day out, bring plenty of balls.

James Page 2024-05-03
Beautiful course but punishing for high handicaps

Paul Martin 2024-05-01
Today’s golf was great. We had everything we needed and got our buggies on time and enjoyed the game.

Richard Ormonde 2024-04-26
There was a lot water out there on the course it did not cause us any problems it is a very good golf course

Thomas Donlan 2024-04-05
Excellent experience both when booking and when at the course

John McCarthy 2024-04-02
Excellent greens that hold shots, fairways in very good condition with nice grass, however course was saturated due to heavy rains recently, so water hazards were overflowing their boundaries and some cart paths were under water. The course offers generally nice views, but holes are a bit monotonous, as fairways are lined with the same palm trees everywhere, all the same height. But would definitely play again at the Easter special rate, but would not pay the regular rate.

rob schepp 2024-04-01
We have played the salgado course many times the last three years. But today was a special one after the huge rainfall last two weeks. The waterlevel in the ponts was super high. Even the paths for the buggies were flooded in several places. The maintenance is excellent, greens are in great conditions. Staff very friendly. What can I say more…

Leopold Haider 2024-03-25
Außergewöhnlicher und interessanter Platz. Gut gepflegt. -**- An exceptional and interesting place. Well preserved.

Hatakka Raimo 2024-03-24
very good

DANIEL MARK KIRBY 2024-03-21
Starter could be improved, getting groups on the tee.

Nick Fry 2024-03-15
Course pretty good - course etiquette of some of the other golfers awful unfortunately

Raymond Günther 2024-03-14
Schöne Anlage, sehr gut zu spielen, auch sehr gut zu laufen, mit absolut freundlichem Personal. -**- Beautiful course, very good to play, also very good to walk, with absolutely friendly staff.

rob schepp 2024-03-12
Salgados is in very good condition. Luckily the heavy rain from last week helps to make de golfcourse Green. Maintenance is good.

Tom Upton 2024-03-03
Excellent - very wet and windy thoroughly enjoyed the wind but not the rain

Craig McIntosh 2024-03-03
We will never play this course again. We were following a six ball all the way round. Caddymaster even came out and told them they couldn’t play a six ball but they carried on. The greens were not in a bad condition, but no one has repaired any pitch marks. The type of people that they let play on this course obviously couldn’t care less. Hundreds of footprints in the bunkers not raked after being used. My recommendation is that you don’t bother to come here.

Per Ericson 2024-03-03
Enjoyed it

Ruud Verberne 2024-03-02
Love this course (not the rain)

Ruud Verberne 2024-03-02

Emilio Laiolo 2024-02-26
Lovely course , watch out there’s water waiting to take your golf balls.

Mark Boon 2024-02-17
Salgados did not disappoint, always in good condition, smooth and slick greens apart from one that had a little disease on it. A nice welcome and staff that look after you. We will be back.

Ken Thomson 2024-02-12
Friendly and efficient staff, good service

Keith Browne 2024-02-10
Very enjoyable

Michael Schwarz 2024-02-09
Very nice place, a bit flat but with a lot of water. Straight strategic play is required. The condition of the place is great, only the many palm trees that line the place could use some attention.

Ron Harris 2024-02-05
Good

Mark Hughes 2024-01-29
Kitchen wasn’t open until 9.30am, so no hot food available for early tee times

Kieran Cummins 2024-01-27
Unbelievable service again. Course in perfect condition.

Ruud Verberne 2023-12-06
Played this course many times with pleasure. Good maintained nice staff
