Pinheiros Altos Golf Course offers 27 holes divided on 3 times 9 holes golf courses : The Corks, the Pines and the Olives. Olives and Pines, golf courses each presenting different characteristics. The Olives are the old back nine and are more flat, the wind has greater influence and have some holes where the water element comes in to play. The eighth hole, island par 3, is a good choice for nearest the pin, and is also the golf courses signature hole.
Pines, the original front nine, where 4 new holes have been integrated and as its name indicates presents a more parkland course, plenty of pine trees, elevations, dog legs and also 3 lakes that protect 3 very tempting greens. The 4th a short par 5, the 5th a long par 4, stroke 1 and the 6th a par 5 reachable in 2 if you had a good tee shot. Signature hole, again a beautiful Par 3 over a valley to a McKenzie green. A great golf course, very demanding and if you succeed to finish with 36 points on stabelford you probably have played your best golf.
Pinheiros Altos Corks Course is the longer and more demanding of the three nine holes. Starting right on the first tee. A narrow line for a dog leg fairway. The eighth hole, is the most difficult Par 5 in the Algarve, a double dog leg of 580 yards and a narrow gap, 120 mt before a elevated green well protected by bunkers.
The Corks Golf Course is also a mixture of the original 4 holes and 5 new holes with spectacular views of the Ludo valley and the Goldra hills beyond.

Beautiful, challenging and multi-segmented course. Very nice and warm welcome at the golf reception. The overall condition of the course was good. The greens were excellent, the fairways average and the bunkers in poor condition.

Pinheiros Altos is a great golf course we played the pines and corks. There had been a bit of disease on the green and a few putts bobbled but to be fair they were not too bad. The service and reception was good and friendly. Definitely be back it’s worth more than one visit.

der 27-Loch Platz bleibt einer unserer Favoriten an der Algarve. Wie meist waren die Fairways und Greens in einem guten Zustand, die einzelnen 9-Loch Schleifen sehr abwechselungsreich und das Spieltempo erfreulich zügig ohne zu stressen. Die Dame am Frontdesk war sehr freundlich und gab gute Hinweise und das Restaurant erfreute
nach der Runde mit guter Auswahl und moderaten Preisen. Alles Argumente um wiederzukommen..... -**- The 27-hole course remains one of our favourites in the Algarve. As usual, the fairways and greens were in good condition, the individual 9-hole loops were very varied and the pace of play was pleasingly quick without being stressful. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and gave good advice and the restaurant was a delight
after the round with a good selection and moderate prices. All arguments to come back.....

Die Grüns und Fairways waren trotz vorangegangener starker Regenfälle in einem sehr guten Zustand. Die Spielgeschwindigkeit trotz guter Auslastung erfreulich. Auch verzogene Bälle waren meist gut zu finden. Insgesamt ein anspruchsvoller, aber auch fairer Platz. -**- The greens and fairways were in very good condition despite previous heavy rainfall. The speed of play was pleasing despite good utilisation. Even bent balls were usually easy to find. Overall, a challenging but fair course.

Course is a bit untidy, we know it is affected by the lack of rain but the staff are excellent

Lovely course though greens a bit bobbly and bare in patches. Loved the signature par 3 on the olives (hole 8)

Very enjoyable round playing solo at Pinheiros.
the incredibly helpful starter went ahead in a buggy to ask to earlier 4 balls of I could play through this resulted in a round of under 3 hours for 18 holes!
Clubhouse is modern food and drink is reasonably priced and staff are very helpful and attentive. Pro shop is well stocked.
Very good practice facilities located down the hill from the clubhouse.
The course is made up of of 3 nines Corks, pines and olives. Played corks and pines - greens are slow, but receptive one or two were a little bobbly but generally ok. Fairways had one or two bare patches but perfectly acceptable given the continued dry conditions in the Algarve generally.
