Fabulous course challenging wonderful condition

Paul Stirzaker 2024-09-27
Course is well kept and has a couple of challenging holes. Great for improving your short game! Loved the 18 holes we played there as our first round on the Algarve.

Very responsive via whatsapp, all worked well and very good discounts

Scott Burnside 2024-08-27
Well maintained, good greens that you can pitch on to and it will hold. Solid test of golf.

David Hartopp 2024-07-13
Offer early tee times but no one in pro shop until later. Portugal time!! lol Course is nice but could be really nice!

Jelmer Douma 2024-05-31
We had to want for the voucher

Robert DeKelver 2024-04-18
Slow but understandable. Busy course, but everyone was courteous. Like the new restaurant!

Paulo Pedrosa 2024-04-01
Great Experience - Lots of fun in the rain .. Course in good conditions, very beautiful - A great PAR 3 experience for short game

Stephen neary 2024-03-26
A little cold but I enjoyed my knock

David W Sayburn 2024-03-10
Good fun, will be better when the bar reopens for refreshments but a nice little practice course.

Wim Niemans 2024-03-05
Much has to be done about the maintenance

Pauline Hill 2024-03-04
Sadly this is the worst course we've played in Portugal. No more than a pitch n put 9-hole course in OK condition but holes too close to one another making it dangerous, especially with so many novice players on the course. Pace of play painfully slow.

Monique Van Opstal 2023-12-24
For a beginner very nice course with plenty of challenges, really enjoyed playing here.

Paul Ingrouille 2023-11-04
I liked the layout of the course, greens were good but it is a par 3 course so always going to be slightly compromised

Neville Campling 2023-10-02
Very good

Boris Potyomkin 2023-09-23
Very nice par 3 course

Luis Velez 2023-07-07
Fantastic service!

Ian Lyall 2023-06-17
Quick response. Saved some money as well.

Hans van Leeuwen 2023-03-18
Weliswaar en 9 holes par 3 baan, maar bepaald niet kinderachtig. En al helemaal niet de 2e hole, ca 150 m over een bebost dal. Goede service in het restaurant. -**- Admittedly and 9-hole par 3 course, but by no means childish. And certainly not the 2nd hole, about 150 m over a wooded valley. Good service in the restaurant.

Rob Jenné 2023-02-27
This year I experienced a nice service.

Alan Waxman 2023-02-17
Tee time staff were very accommodating

Mark Hearn 2023-01-12
Good short course. Relaxed approach for course. Good way to improve your short game. Always helpful and friendly staff

Thomas Murphy 2022-11-18
Absolutely brilliant set up

Liesbeth Heylen 2022-11-01
Facilities very old/poor - quite expensive as well.

adam 2022-10-21
this is a very short par 3, 9 hole golf course - i think this should be made very clear. Most holes are only 80yards so a sand wedge on many holes. It is suitable for beginners. Also depsite booking a tee time the course allowed many people on - and there is no starter - so we had to wait for 3 groups to tee off - first come first served basis.
Tee Times reply: That is what we propose for this golf course and the score card also

Joe Bennett 2022-10-08
Lovely little small course but unfortunately it gets a little bit too busy when stag nights turn up and they’re doing five balls could do with a Marshall speeding up play

Mas 2022-10-02
Good

Renate wevers 2022-09-15
Small course but nice

Francis Malton 2022-08-09

Vera good

Ben Heather 2021-10-17
Lovely par 3 9 hole course. Greens in good condition & lunch after was great value and lovely. We’ll be back.

Philip Craggs 2021-10-14
Excellent friendly staff, great little knock around

John Mullins 2021-09-30
Enjoyable Par 3 course

Keith Bryant 2021-08-11
Very much enjoyed the course and the reception and service from the pro, made to feel at home and very welcome. We both had golf shoes with us but we’re slightly disappointed that the all in price at this course did not include shoes.

Neil martin 2021-07-25
Lovely little par 3 course, tees moved a little close at the moment, maybe because of a competition today?

Gary Armstrong 2021-01-14
Challenging par 3 course. Pine trees, water, bunkers, decent greens. A tight course and a good test of the short game

Sian Joyce 2020-01-26
We've stayed at Balaia 7 or 8 times previously and like to use the practice facilities, plus the course is a good test or iron/wedge skills, however this time we found the driving range was almost unusable, partially closed and the rest had no grass, the range balls were disgusting, absolutely filthy and ancient, the greens were in awful condition, everything really looked like it was going down hill. Also the etiquette of some of the guests was dreadful. Additionally the service at the club house was awful, one day we actually walked away after having waited over quarter of an hour to be served, with no other clients in there.

Ian Hanson 2019-10-23
Nice par 3 course Quite tight needs thinking about. Coming back soon

Simon Abdy 2019-10-22
Perfect if you want to practice your short game and nursing a hangover.

Ugis 2019-09-30
One of the best Par 3 corse! Views are amazing! Greens and fairways are good!

neil martin 2019-08-23
very good course in great condition, some challenging holes for the beginner

Andy Gooding 2019-07-17
Decent course. Well maintained with some tricky holes.

Albert Fuchs 2019-05-25
everything fine

Steve Tudor 2019-04-09
Booking perfect - friendly club with lots of families playing. Short but challenging 9 hole course.

Lucas heumen 2019-04-08
IT was a nice course, small but interesting for playing once.

Keith Purdy 2019-03-25
Poor...long wait all the way around and price was expensive for what was basically a pitch and putt course

Gerben Creutzberg 2019-02-06
A very nice par 3 golfcourse. People are very friendly. The course is not easy with many trees and rough. The fairways are narrow. Good for your shortplay.

Pamela Neil 2018-10-30
3rd annual visit to Balaia Golf Course. Wonderful course, can’t wait come again

Jonathon 2018-09-21
Great little course to practice your short game a few tough holes where accuracy is key, rough very unforgiving but had a great laugh and the pint in the clubhouse was well deserved, would play again, just a note that it's not very long so don't expect a long game but still definitely worth a visit

Claire Johnson 2018-08-23
Very enjoyable experience. Highly recommend for beginners.

Peter Sutton 2018-05-08
Very nice course, though a little crowded at the time I tee'd off (1300). Much trickier than the par 54 suggests. Clubs hired at the club could be of a better standard and better maintained.

DAVID CHAPMAN 2018-04-12
Course was OK

Carmel Murphy 2018-04-11
Excellent par 3 course with exceptional greens. Great course for your short game. Staff very friendly.

Jaap van Niekerk 2017-11-29
Course was nice to play but not difficult

Pamela Neil 2017-06-02
Truly wonderful golf course, excellent customer service, facilities, and comfort zone. Some truly awesome holes, the greens were exceptional. And only a five minute walk from our holiday accommodation at Balaia holiday village.

Defranoux Daniel 2017-03-16
Small interesting golf, but too expensive for a P & P. The number of practice balls in the dispenser is too small ..... For the price!

Dave Lathwood 2016-10-25
Some very interesting holes, which challenge your short game. During the round, I realised I had left my golf bag open and discovered my wallet was missing. However my panic was short lived, as when returning to the clubhouse I discovered a fellow player had found my wallet and returned it with all its contents to the bar. My sincere thanks to a very honest individual as it allowed us to continue our holiday,without any disruption and inconvenience
