Aphrodite Hills Resort Hotel

Hotel was spotless, lovely room overlooking the 9th fairway and sea beyond. Friendly staff although the service at the main bar was slow on occasion.

Rooms need upgrading

Located just a short drive from the airport, this is a beautiful hotel with lovely friendly staff. Our room was large with a shaded terrace, large bathroom and plenty of storage, however the seating was not as comfortable as I would have liked. There was a wide range on dining areas with excellent food and drink choices. There were several pools and sunbathing areas with comfortable sun beds available and pleasant staff providing drinks whenever required. There was a golf was fantastic, with great practice and warm-up areas and a challenging, but dramatic, course.

YGT Aphrodite hotel June 12-18 Firstly I’d like to review YGT itself. 2 months before this trip which was fully paid by then. They decided to inform me, (the organiser that booked this trip 18 months in advance), that there is course maintenance on June 2-6 2 weeks before we travelled. I asked them why they never informed me of this annual maintenance and they said they had only just been informed. Well that’s rubbish. I asked the course management when I was there “ we do all our maintenance on the first 2 weeks of June every year” was the answer. YGT it’s your job to know this and inform me when I’m booking so i can adjust the dates. I ask my group to pay a lot of money and I had to deal with it. Also .. Hotel.. I specifically asked YGT to ensure we had 4 TWIN rooms as there are 8 men sharing and it says on the itinerary DOUBLE rooms. YGT assured me that we had twin rooms. No we didn’t. I asked for my room to be changed to a twin then they gave me another Double. It really wasn’t good enough. Take our money and at least be helpful. I emailed you from the resort and I have returned home and I still have not had a reply. Poor CS. HOTEL Food was fantastic. We were all inclusive and definitely had our moneys worth. Every restaurant was top class food was excellent as was the service. Aphrodite Golf Course One of the best courses I have ever played. Super condition (apart from the course maintenance on the greens) staff excellent very helpful watch out for the snakes in the scrubland (vipers) Secret Valley Excellent course with stunning views but poor bunkers, stones with little sand. Good again very nice as well. Elea Nice course bit untidy but a great layout and challenging holes. Overall we had a wonderful time, golf was excellent and full recommend you visit. The lack of transparency from YGT was forgotten once we were on the courses eating in the great restaurants and drinking a lot of beer and cocktails.

We have used this resort many times for our group bookings. It is still very good but has lost an edge over previous visits. I would still recommend this hotel. It's a bit out from Pathos but has a regular bus service.

Very enjoyable , restaurants and food very good .

We arrived and did not have the twin rooms we requested. Two rooms were changed the next day - which was not very convenient. Four of the six on our group contacted a nasty diarrhea and sickness bug. Apparently other people had experienced the same- this unfortunately impacted on our trip. A member of reception said if there was anything he could do to help us to let them know. The next morning we phoned to ask for someone sparkling water to be brought to our room and was told that was room service and we would have to pay for it …. If you would like to contact me to discuss all this please do.

The room was spacious and comfortable. With a separate shower as well as a bath. Staff very helpful. The food was exceptional for the half-board option. All the arrangements incuding taxi pickups were smooth thanks to the advance planning by YGT. Highly recommended.

We went in mid-December 2024. The resort is in an excellent location, somewhat away from the commercial and business of Paphos. The hotel had winter maintenance so the main pool was under construction and left us with a poor view. Fortunately we were moved the following day by the resort which was very kind of them. 90% of the restaurants on the site are closed. You are forced to choose one of 1 restaurants. Fortunately we had a car so had the freedom to choose if we wanted to go off site. Overall has great facilities don’t use the spa, a shame so much was closed at our time of arrival.

The main bar and pool areas could have music playing in the background for more atmosphere, other than that, great environments

Room described as deluxe. We asked if our room was deluxe and told upgraded to family room. Very large bathroom quite old fashioned but nice toiletries and ample towels. Looked out on buildings and outside space had two dirty sunbeds under a tree on bear earth, a table and two chairs. Not a pleasant area to sit.The hotel staff were lovely. However, it was obviously prioritising Tui. On arrival we were marshalled by a female Tui staff member who curtly told us to move into the queue we were already standing in. We were probably still stressed from the hour long wait at the airport as the pick up wasn't booked. After calling the number, which was very difficult in a busy, noisy airport, a lovely young man arrived and took us to the hotel. The hotel is very big and we received no help with its geography. On the penultimate day we met a guy who showed us the place where we could access everything electronically. The reception could have helped more efficiently. The porters were very obliging and the Golf experience was very good. The golf lounge and veranda was excellent and far outshone the hotel.

Very enjoyable would go again

We had not appreciated that this is mainly a Tui Resort for families. Breakfast is an very unpleasant Bunfight! Village Restaurants and Club House very good. David and Angie

Nice hotel, comfy rooms, great staff throughout. Food was good considering we were late in the season

Comfortable and easy feeling.

This hotel markets itself as a five star hotel but sadly it’s not. It needs some TLC and an update. Go expecting it to be top notch and you’ll be disappointed. Go expecting a 4 star hotel and you’ll be fine. Better towels, bed sheets that actually fit the bed, replenishment of used toiletries, a stocked mini bar, doors that look freshly painted and are not bashed about would all help. What’s with having to wear a wrist band all the time? Why do you have to pay a deposit for pool towels. In a 5 star hotel?!

Jus missed it,Lacked attention to detail in small things.

Fabulous hotel. Huge rooms. Food in hotel and restaurants top notch. Staff very friendly and helpful.

First class facilities with helpful staff everywhere. Quality room, superb food and a relaxed atmosphere. Well manicured and tough golf course - you have to have a buggy. Fantastic views on all holes too.

Good quality accommodation with excellent staff and customer service. Only gripe would be the indoor pool/Spa opening hours, which being restricted to 9am-6pm, were not really conducive with use before or after a day's golf (the very raison d'etre of the establishment?)

Great hotel, great staff and excellent facilities.

Really good rooms overlooking the course

Absolutely loved it. Staff were excellent and food was super.

Slight problem in the bathroom, the floor tiles in the shower area become very slippy so had to request a shower mat which did appear shortly afterwards following us being moved rooms to a disabled one which had grab handles and unfortunately the same tiles again very slippy.

Everything was fine

Hotel has transformed into an all inclusive resort focussed a lot more on families as opposed to golfers. Although the golf course is fantastic the rooms are beginning to tire and the cleaning is now done by non Cypriots and leaves a lot to be desired!! We had an airport pick up which didnt arrive. Thankfully a local rep knew the phone number of Aphrodite (as the main line just kept ringing out)and a taxi was arranged albeit nearly 2 hours after we landed. Definitely a case of lack of attention to details!! We love the golf and the food is OK

Lovely hotel and setting, food pretty average

Nothing open same menus

Excellent

Very very disappointing, all the advertised facilities and restaurants were not open, the food was cold, inedible and very poor definitely not a 5 star facility. To make matters worse complaints whilst away and back home were not dealt with satisfactory by YGT

Absolutely loved it. Great food in all the restaurants. Room was comfortable and quiet with great views of golf course and the sea. Lovely staff and pool areas

The food was great in both buffet and a la carte restaurants, great breakfast too! Only had a few beers so no idea on the drinks but most people seemed to be enjoying. Staff in the bars/restaurants were really nice and friendly

We had an all inclusive option which worked out to be very good value, the hotel was fairly quiet, early February, and a really friendly homely feeling. Not sure it would feel as welcoming of it was busier.

Everything was perfect! Everybody was very kind. We have just enjoyed.

Understand Tui took over since last March.The quality overall been down graded.Disappointed for food,cleanness and staff efficiency.

Nice stay but parts of the hotel are becoming tired due to under-investment. Winter mode also meant showers at indoor heated pool were stone cold, as was the cooked breakfast buffet it seemed.

This is a comfortable hotel, albeit getting a little dated now it is very well kept in terms of cleanliness, rooms and beds are large and fairly quiet. We found the allinclusive option drinks to be below expectations especially wine and most of the food bordered on average - avoid Jasmine which was very poor.its a very easy location for golf and the hotel is easy to find too from the airport.

overall a fantastic place lovely friendly staff excellent restaurants very clean and tidy the golf course is immaculate and a real test the only negative is having to get up early every morning to secure a bed around the pool you should not have to do this in a 5* resort However overall a wonderful place for both golfers and non golfers highly recommended for a duel golf/holiday destination We will go back

Very much a family resort, lots of things for kids....more than adults. Golf club across the road from hotel so very convenient. Rooms are in blocks dotted around the resort, very comfy bed and well cleaned every day.

Group of 16 with no complaints from anyone. This must be a record!!

Excellent hotel. Only complaint is that the buffet style food was not always very hot.

Excellent. Very well sited room.Warn clients that village square facilities are not open in low season so need half board not b and b unless have a car to go elsewhere. we upgraded to hb.

Excellent staff

There were only 1 or 2 choices for food every night in December with about 6 restaurants closed due to off-season. No local food was on offer which was the biggest disappointment of the trip. However, the staff were fantastic and Laura at the Anoi pub was keeping the whole thing going almost single-handed.... The room was excellent with views over the course and impeccably clean. Taxi into Paphos for Greek food helped overcome the lack of local cuisine in the hotel (about 65 euros return).

Excellent room. Friendly staff.

On arrival at the 1st tee the Marshall informed us that we could only play the front 9 ( twice) the back 9 being closed. No mention of this at golf check in , no apology, like it or lump it. Second time to play here this year and same appalling attitude to clients.

Lovely views all round the course, good gps in the buggies. Greens are very big and 10.5 on the stint. Very fast for the average golfer.

Great course with feature holes. All players use buggies

Very disappointing. The tee time booked by you meant that there was no way that we could play 18 holes. We managed little more than two thirds before it was pitch black. You are the experts with local knowledge and with the 5 hour rounds which seem to be normal, we should have been given a tee time of no later than 11.30.

There was an issue with the starter arguing with the other two ball before we set off . I think marshals should keep the pace of play quicker or have longer time between tee times .

It’s an excellent manicured golf course

Exelent course, worth every penny, but very slow

One of the most exciting courses I have played and was in excellent condition. Look forward to playing again sometime

Very welcoming

Enjoyable what we expected other than my wife was frightened to death going down the side of that ravine and up the other side.

Love this course and we were made welcome by staff in pro shop and starter/marshall. Nice mix of holes. Great you could refill your water bottle on course. Only thing that let it down was the awful service of bar staff. Rude and bad attitude

Great challenge, the course offered a range of fair but challenging holes set in a lovely valley. The signature holes 7 and 18 were brilliant fun. The buggies were excellent with everything provided. I did play the course better on the second occasion and felt the better you know this course the better you would play it. Thoroughly enjoyed my 2 rounds on this wonderful course.

Playing off the yellow tees made the course a good test anything beyond this I would have probably struggled off my 20 handicap

Great course. Was paired up with couple guys who were great

Beautiful course....only issue is some greens faster than others which made difficult to judge speed.

Excellent course - great condition and mix between short/narrow and long/wide holes. Staff were very friendly, and a great time had by all.

Excellent course would highly recommend

Brilliant course outstanding holes and views. Hole 7 par 3 over a valley is bonkers. The drive from 6th - 7th is 1 km. buggies are required.

a very good experience for our 4 rounds. only one slow round following a members competition. greens fast and true. excellent condition overall and a fair challenge. we are a group of recycled teenagers - over 70's - and played off the yellow tees.

We played in very windy conditions,which made it difficult. A slow rounds

Despite staying at this course we didn’t get a transfer to the club house. We had to call the reception and pay extra to be taken to our tee time. Then we got stick for being late. That didn’t go down well. Once on the course it was all perfect.

Very good course with excellent facilities, the greens are very fast

Hard off the plates as three 240 yard carries off tee. One of those is a par 3 Amazing gorge and valley. A 1k drive in a buggy after you tee off is spectacular. Good greens. With lots of nap which makes more difficult. Definite the best course we paid in Cyprus.

For what is supposed to be the best, a let down because of the barstaff and having to wait so long for drinks and food

Some holes we did not know where we were going so it was good to play it a second time.

Great course, 7th is mind blowing. Greens excellent but very tricky. Great experience and highly recommend

Minus for distanse between some of the holes Then one point that goes for all courses: I asked for manual trolleys to be included. 12 players every day to line up and pay for trolleys was not ok.

A warm welcome by the golf club, we were given some advice regarding the course and course management. It is a long course and a buggy is essential to get round in time. Sun fairly difficult holes if you're a high handicapper and some not too bad.

It is a housing estate with a golf course spread over a very large area. This dictated the use of buggies with minimal walking. Course if very busy and meant the duration of a round was +4.5 hours - and with many delays at tee boxes for groups in front. For a registered PGA course the practice facilities were very poor.

Great test of golf, well manicured

Got very windy one day. Lovely views all around. Need a good driver on the buggy to negotiate the twists and turns to the short seventh down the ravine !

Cart paths only being one negative. Course great and greens very quick

Winter conditioning of greens left something to be desired. Enoigh sand not letting you read any putts consistently (December 2025). We were informed a week before going by the travel agent who said he could change our course after playing our 1st round. (Had 2 rounds on aphrodites and 1 on Elea Course). I feel such logistics should be relayed at time of booking a client on winter golf breaks as this is often off peak golf season. With Aphrodites being the National PGA course it was too memorable with the views so we decided to stick to it. Nonetheless the view were beautiful, the weather was crisp and clear, the fairways and bunkers were well preserved and the ground staff were lovely. A must do, midlayers and light jackets suggested.

Very slow 5 hour round too many people.

testing tee shots and slick greens not a big fan off the signature hole

The course was a resort style course, fair off the tees Unfortunately all bunkers were GRU due to overnight storm.

This would score higher but for the lengthy buggy rides between tees. It is clearly a well established and renowned course but Secret Valley was better for us

The course provided the wow factor with views, tee and green positions in valleys.

I really loved the clubhouse but had to request towel from pro shop. Limited space in visitor changing rooms, possibly enough room for 2 persons max. Practice facilities are excellent if not strange as there are practice facilities at opposite end and a ball landed 30 yards in front of me! Was teamed up with a pleasant visitor and then on back nine with another gentleman.

We were harassed by the marshals 6 times we finished 4 minutes over time and deliberately waited for the next group to arrive . That took 15 minutes!!! Unfortunately for Aphrodite we played with two people who were in front of us the following day. They received the same treatment and were made to split into two 2 balls!! We Never saw a person behind us on the tee in 15 holes. Round was ruined would never go back.

Again, let down by YGT. Upon booking in Jan 2024, the stipulation was 10 travellers, made up of 1x 4ball and 2x 3balls with buggies to suit. We arrived at the course only to find that we had been given 5 buggies (for 2x 4balls and 1x 2ball) and therefore had to purchase an additional one!! Again, incredibly poor from YGT I did call to report all of these issues to one of your representatives but again, I have received zero feedback or communication since. I would suggest that someone in authority contacts me with not only apologies but a reasonable suggestion of compensation

Two rounds with nice people. Really unique experience with a frightening buggy 1km ride down a winding path. I do suffer from fear of heights but coped with the excitement! Some well designed holes. Challenging par 3's. We found the greens difficult on the first day, which resulted in several 3 putts.Thought the slope rating was a bit lower than it played.Great views and a great experience. Definitely needed a buggy and patience.

Excellent helpful staff and a well maintained and managed course. The 7th par 3 across the revine and the finishing par 5 18th across the lake were the signature holes. Greens were faster that October greens back in the U.K., so lag putting was a challenge!

This course is in excellent condition and really suits holiday golf. Wide fairways, only a few places to lose a ball, some beautiful holes and off the yellows is not on the long side at all. Greens are quick.

Challenging but fair course. Stunning par 3 7th over gorge.

Excellent golf course with nice signature hole

A challenging course, but great fun. Rounds can be slow due to high use. Good snacks/drinks prior to 10th tee and good toilets around course. Very friendly Marshalls. Cannot be walked unless ultra fit.

Despite being under renovation the course is in great condition, a challenge. The course staff are friendly and helpful and stayed on top of the speed of play as best they could. Highly recommend. Look forward to the next stay on Aphrodite Hills.

Brilliant day on the course, I was slightly late arriving but the staff were very helpful and got me out on the course as soon as I arrived. The starter was also really nice to deal with, gave me a heads up on what holes were the scenic holes for pictures and the marshalls on the course were also very welcoming. I had a good chat with one of them who advised me on the other courses around the area and also took a video for me on the signature par 3 7th.

Great course

Don't think I've ever seen a course in better condition and I have played around the world and Myrtle Beach. Greens were very fast.

Great course - greens super fast - we had a day when they had booking for large group and we ended up with 5.1/2 round Other than slow play - exceleent

The Clubs provided for golf hire were excellent. Latest models. The Greens were tricky but fun.

A great challenge of golf

Very popular course but still managed to get off as a two ball, very well organised, some difficult holes over ravines, but better on the second round when not so intimidated by them.

Course in good condition. 7th hole is worth the visit alone.

Great course

Great course, awesome views..

Will always be too busy.

As we played there before the greens were in a poor condition but the course was still very good

Lovely interesting course. Good condition considering they were going to commence course maintenance the following week. Staff were very amenable and friendly. Nice relaxed holiday.

Some challenging golf holes and buggy ride in particular is to be taken extremely carefully.

A very interesting course. Play was monitored and marshals kept people to time. We loved it.

Absolutely fantastic golf course. Spectacular holes. Fairways more like our own greens! Playable and enjoyable for mid handicappers like us. We all felt it was probably the best course we have ever played in terms of overall condition/scenery and overall experience. Stunning and we would obviously play again! The pace of play was slow, but we didn’t really mind as it was just wonderful to be out there on the course.

Disappointed with the service at the bar/restaurant. Very slow, and they seem short of staff. Both otherwise, at the pro shop and the marshals are excellent. We did have an incident when the caddy master wouldn’t allow us to leave our golf bags in the golf room, but that was eventually sorted.

Greens were pronged which impacted the course, had we known this was being done the week we went, we would of picked somewhere else

Very well maintained & structured course

Greens very fast, but open course off Yellows. Spectacular views. Short 7 hole over gully great fun. A mix of long and short holes for all handicaps to enjoy. Great clubhouse.

Fantastic golf course, and some of the most helpful, knowledgeable staff I’ve ever encountered. From the shop staff, to caddy masters and Dave the starter, all went above and beyond to make the experience enjoyable. There is one marshal who lets the rest down. On our first round, on a course we’d never played, he made it his mission to make us feel very uncomfortable. We were keeping pace with the group in front, and had pulled away from the group behind. For some reason this wasn’t good enough for this particular chap. He pulled up to tell us to pick up the pace. After I explained that we were actually waiting on every tee box for the group in front to clear the fairway (something we had absolutely no problem with by the way, why would you, on holiday in beautiful surroundings, no rush at all) he became very aggressive and confrontational. It was a bizarre encounter which ruined our first round here. This particular fellow needs to learn some etiquette and manners that every other staff member displays on a daily basis. He let them down massively. That was our only gripe. Other than him, it is an exceptional place to enjoy a round of golf. Views are breathtaking, the course is tricky without being overly difficult. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic course with crazy carries carries and a great finish. We loved it.

Played 4 rounds. 3 good speed 1 very slow. Waiting on every shot. Slope rating definitely should be higher due to difficulty of greens alone. Fantastic course in all. Lovely but tough finishing hole. Great views all round the course. Sit on the verandah and watch everyone tackle the 18th.

Brilliant experience - will be back

Slow! Using buggies does not make a relaxed round! People rushing around, very frenetic. Lovely course but needs to sort timings out bit better, people behind too close. But all in all great condition and we did enjoy each round.

All the group agreed that even though all the other 3 courses in the Paphos area are really very good indeed Aphrodite is the must play course in the area. Simply stunning with 18 totally individual and very interesting holes. The whole thing is spectacular and the 7th is almost the 8th wonder of the world. Loved it👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Excellent course. Extremely fast greens! Thoroughly enjoyed the facilities and would definitely comeback. Recommend highly.

Loved it

Great experience! So many interesting holes. Really glad we played it twice to appreciate and enjoy the nuances.

Lovely scenic course with great facilities and friendly staff, also very well organised.

another great course just greens very hard to read made of two types of grasses

This is a beautiful course and a challenge of our golf. Plenty of variety in the holes. Our handicaps are 14 and 18 so the course was a real test. The greens were very, very fast!

Big challenging course..great experience.!

the round was slow until the marshall split the group in front into 2 x 2 balls.

My wife and I have been married for 50 years and have played world class golf all over the world. Simply, it does not get any better than Aphrodite Hills, PGA National. The views are to die for and right to the point, every serious golfer should make it a point to play this course and see how you do on the world famous 7th hole which is definitely a once in a lifetime opportunity!

Excellent

Great golf course in superb condition Great amenities range and putting areas Staff couldn’t be more helpful, will be back

Outstanding course

Great mix of holes. Can open your shoulders at times off the tee, but then at other times caution! Big greens with lots of movement. Great.

3 x rounds only two completed,2nd one we gave up after 13 holes as a Cyprus PGA competition was in front of us. As a slightly disabled golfer I found it extremely hard for a number of reasons. Very hilly, buggy restrictions near the greens meant a lot of walking even using the VIP GMS system and also on most of the tees one had to climb up steep inclines from the cart path. The different type of grass on top of plastic liners surrounding all the greens resulted in the ball just dying as it landed, very frustrating. Overall delighted that we had a good holiday however would we go back ...... probably not!! Staff throughout were terrific.

The course was fantastic but a hard test especially when the wind Was up.

The only downside here was that they had recently been working on the greens. There had been heavily timed and sanded which made them a lottery to put on. Bad luck on our part I suppose as I suspect they will be very good when they recover. A very good course and lovely views. Buggies essential however fit you think you are!!

Best golf course i have ever played .5stars all the way .everyone carnt do enough love it .

10th tee was a white knuckle ride! but great views.

Lovely course that you had to plot your way around greens on the fast side

Well organised with buggies being almost mandatory. Buggies are arranged outside the Pro Shop with tee times displayed. The buggies have GPS, but this can sometimes be difficult to see and "nags" when you do not keep up with their idea of pace of play. This gets annoying when it tells you to speed up whilst you are held up by the group in front. Course is in pristine condition with some of the best greens I have played and has some brilliant holes, especially the 6th which is a Par 3 over a ravine. Large clubhouse overlooking the 18th green offers reasonable food and drinks. If you are staying in one of the apartments, some are a mile away from the Pro Shop and there is no transport to collect you, so you need either a hire car or arrange a taxi. Glad I played the course and would recommend but wouldn't rush back as there are courses that are as good and better value elsewhere in Europe.

Providing you tee off relatively early the speed of play is OK but afternoons can be over 5 hours!!!! However its a great course and in our top ten in Europe.

We where pestered by a course Marshall from the 10th tee , playing a four ball we finished 5 minutes early when measured against the “ course time sheet “ . We held nobody up nor did we have to wait for the group in front . The group behind finished 15 minutes behind . I saw no reason to ask that we speed up and inspect our pace of play on several holes , it almost spoilt the experience.

Lovely course. Played it twice. Second time disappointed by green staff. Watering greens whilst putting. Talking on mobile phones. 5ish holes this happened on. Did pass on concerns to golf staff who were very apologetic.

Some great holes especially the 7th signature hole. Really enjoyed it

Great course with fast, challenge greens, firm fairways and fantastic views. Some really fun and interesting holes, especially the 7th over the valley. The practice facilities are also first class, the pro shop was very friendly and the terrace overlooking the green is a great place for a post-round drink.

Great course but a buggy is a must. Very steep hills and long distances from greens to tees (1 km from 2nd green to 3rd tee!). However, course in excellent condition, fairways super and fastest greens I’ve ever played!

Ok ish

Beautiful course. Spoilt by slow play. On the 8th hole we 7 buggies ! More Marshall’s needed on the 7th to speed up play.

the course was good but it was very slow. some of the people on the course did not know about golf rules and were not very good golfers

Terrible abhorrent service at the golf reception, by a very rude ignorant ex pat bald guy. Shame as the course is a good test and in very good condition, but the experience ruined by the poor service

The course was fantastic ands a very good challenge, extremely well maintained and the views were stunning

The course was in excellent condition, some of the greens were sadly not looked after by the players repairing their pitch marks but overall 9.5 out of 10. Pace of play was excellent which was an improvement over the last time I played there.

Very enjoyable joined with another 2 ball very good English golfers. Hire clubs not the best!

Played 3 rounds and found the course very busy compared to previous experiences, and with some players struggling to manage the course, and not getting chance to play through, so long rounds.

The course was in superb condition and we really enjoyed playing here.

Lovely course with spectacular views

The day was spoilt by a very nasty and aggressive person in the restaurant area asking for our proof of vaccination. Without allowing us to say we had it (which we had) he already said we would have to leave if we didn’t and he was right in our faces. He was told to calm down as we had our vaccination info on our phones. Watching him carefully he did not ask any of the locals coming in for vaccination proof. Sometime later another group of UK golfers came in and he launched into his tirade again. They politely told him to fxxx off turned round went downstairs to the golf shop demanded a refund and left !!! That’s why we are giving one star for facilities. Glad we didn’t leave because the course was fantastic with great show holes. The starter and rest of the staff were really friendly and nothing was too much trouble.

Fantastic place

A fantastic golf course, one of the best I have seen and I've seen plenty. A fair test of good golf, if you've not got your game you'll get punished but that is how it should be.

Great course and very friendly

Good course well worth playing

From entering the pro shop to leaving you were treated superbly The course was a pleasure to play Unfortunately the green maintenance programme had just started but still playable A very long course 10km distance covered Definately require a buggy Well worth the green fee

Working on the course before Europe golf competition

One of my most favourite courses .... amazing

Because there is a European competition in a few weeks,there was a lot of ongoing work on the course and buggies were kept on the paths which caused a bit of faffing during a round.

The course was being prepared for a European tour event which meant that there was greens maintenance throughout our stay. Buggies were allowed on paths only which meant the round was slow.

Really fair test of golf, play well and relatively easy - play badly and it can punish you. Super fast green and tricky to read. Green fee is expensive and 5 Euros for 40 balls on the range felt a bit mean..decent facilities though

We had two rounds during our trip, both days were very enjoyable

Course sits on top of a ravine with holes on plateaus either side of the ravine, this means buggies are compulsory. The distance between holes 2 and 3 involve a 1km ride along the buggy path! Course was good but squeezed into the available space. Wouldn’t pay £142 to play this again 🤨

Because there had been rain in previous weeks we were restricted to buggies on cart paths only, this had a big impact on pace of play. Unfortunately it is a course where buggies are needed because of the long distances between some greens and tees.

Most of things were perfect. The green was a bit too slow. The maintenance work were progressing while we played. Lunch restaurant was very nice. The service at the club storage area was excellent and the people were very kind. We have just enjoyed..

Certainly needed the provided buggies. The course was certainly very different but enjoyable. Greens were quite slow, which was a surprise giving their appearance. Club house and facilities were excellent. The only down side was I let my wife loose in the well stocked pro shop. Bad decision. Over all an excellent day.

Weather was not like last year and we realised that we should come before early November season.

Thankfully this is a buggy course to speed up play, greens best early morning as get plenty walking on later in afternoon. we were unable to complete our first round due to light despite starting before 1pm, there is an absence of marshalls to move on slow play. fairways had been worked on so we didnt see it at its best!!

The staff on the checking in desk were very dismissive.

A wonderful course in a fantastic location with great views. the course is tough and any shots not on the fairway are a real challenge to find in the deep rough as the ball nestles below the fluffy rough. the greens are in magnificent condition as is the rest of the course there is a real attention to detail that is obvious from every tee the drive in the buggy down to the 7th tee is not for the faint hearted but added to the experience. some wonderful holes and the course in my opinion is every bit as good as most in the Algarve. An early tee time pre 8.00am or around 5.00pm is recommended as the temperature does get extreme overall a really great course and fantastic helpful staff.

Buggy is essential as long walks between holes. Course in great condition. Staff very helpful and friendly.

This course has a big makeover and looks and plays superb it's so well organised from start to finish a real pleasure to play. For £750 pp for unlimited golf & your own villa with pool by the 1st tee you can't go wrong. STUNNING.

The most wonderful golf course I’ve played to date

Buggys ready each day labelled up for our group with individual start times. Four rounds. 2 x Texas scramble, 1 x best two scores to count, 1 x Individual stableford for our groups annual trophy. Third year playing the course. Kept to suggested times each round. Restricted to 1 bottle if water pp or buy at €1 (free at hotel )penny-pinching or what?

Enjoyed the course, we had played there before a long time ago so it was nice to be able to recall some if the holes. Course staff very helpful.

True test of Golf, throughly enjoyed the course.

fantastic course each hole was set up to provide different challenges panoramic views well marshalled. only negative was the close proximity of villas especially the water aerobic classes which left the instructor screaming when on the tee

Great course, well presented

Nice course, very picturesque, green speed seemed a bit variable (front nine was fast, back nine seemed very slow). Some places you just can’t miss the fairway (e.g. left of 8, right of 13) and the 7th is a unique experience. Enjoyable rounds on both occasions we played it.

Very enjoyable- fab course excellent views

Buggies essential on this course. Shame thst you had to go off of the course quite a distance from the greens. Long drives between holes and not for the faint hearted travelling down into the reveanes. Some tricky holes greens were very slow up to other courses in the area

All very good - no complaints

Marshalls kept games moving warning 4 balls to let us 2 ball through. Excellent ground staff effort.

Resort allows anyone on course, rounds take ridiculous amount of time even with buggies. Ladies in proshop not customer service orientated and rude. Rangers on course did the best they could with slow play.

Quite an experience, as the course is spread across a huge ravine, so buggies were mandatory (but free) and the paths were vertiginous! Greens tricky, but lovely course overall. Staff all really friendly and helpful. Practice facilities very good.

Superb

The course was in excellent condition for December, there were many varied holes with some very challenging tee positions if you choose to play off the back tees! Took our own clubs so not sure what clubs to hire were like but staff there were very accommodating and facilities were excellent.

Buggies mandatory - 1000m between greens and tees twice. Because of recent rain, buggies had to stay on tracks. 5.3hr round! finished in twilight. But good course. I would have liked to go again. Cancelled my second round because of weather. Offered replacement, but heading home next day

3rd green was very poor and around all the fringes of the greens were very poor very little grass. not value for what we paid.
