Santo da Serra: an unforgettable golf destination in Madeira

Posted on by

Located on the breathtaking island of Madeira, Santo da Serra Golf Club stands out as one of the premier golf destinations offered by Tee Times Golf Agency.

Located on the breathtaking island of Madeira, Santo da Serra Golf Club stands out as one of the premier golf destinations offered by Tee Times Golf Agency. It’s not just the rich history and exceptional facilities that make this club unique, but also its 27-hole layout, the only one of its kind in the Atlantic Ocean. This club promises an unparalleled golfing experience in one of the most exclusive locations in the Atlantic Ocean.

Santo da Serra Golf Club history

The history of Santo da Serra Golf Club is a journey back to the early 20th century. The original 9-hole course, established in 1937, was reimagined in 1991 by the legendary golf architect Robert Trent Jones Sr. This metamorphosis gave birth to a breathtaking 27-hole layout that has been the stage for the prestigious Madeira Islands Open, a significant event on the European Tour. The course’s picturesque setting, overlooking the bay of Machico—where Portuguese explorers first set foot on the island—adds a layer of historical charm to your golfing experience.

The Santo da Serra Golf Club boasts a challenging yet enjoyable design. The 27-hole course is divided into three 9-hole sections: Machico, Desertas, and Serras. The Machico and Desertas courses are used for professional tournaments and feature breathtaking views and demanding play. The Serras course offers a more relaxed atmosphere with serene lakes and mountain vistas.

At Santo da Serra, golfers are given the power to shape their game to their skill level. With four tee options at each hole, you can choose the challenge that suits you, whether a leisurely round or a professional-level test. The course’s meticulously maintained fairways, greens, and roughs reflect the dedication to quality that makes Santo da Serra a top-tier golfing destination.

Beyond golf: exploring Madeira

Madeira is a golfer’s paradise and a haven for travellers seeking beauty and adventure. The island’s lush landscapes, dramatic cliffs, and vigorous flora make it an outstanding destination for hiking, sightseeing, and enjoying nature. Funchal, the capital, is known for its historic architecture, botanical gardens, and exquisite local cuisine, providing plenty of activities for non-golfers and post-golf relaxation. Whether you’re interested in exploring the island’s unique levada walks, enjoying a wine-tasting tour, or simply relaxing on one of the island’s beautiful beaches, Madeira has something for everyone.

The club’s facilities include a modern clubhouse with a panoramic restaurant and bar offering stunning ocean views. The training area is equally impressive, featuring two putting greens, a chipping green, a bunker, and a three-tiered driving range, one of which is covered. The Pro Shop is stocked with top golf brands and equipment for hire.
