Fantastic course in every respect. Clubhouse and pro shop immaculate.

John blake 2024-09-12
Great challenge beautifully designed course

Graham Childs 2024-09-09
Beautiful, in great condition. Extremely hard, take lots of balls!

Giva 2024-09-03
Need better buggies. Other than that, amazing.

Craig Cruickshank 2024-09-01
Although the course is a nice layout, the group didn't enjoy the course. They didn't make any attempt to clear the greens each morning, so they were covered in sand. Also they decided to put the pins on the edge of every green, to the point were it was I.possible to putt at times. Disappointing 2 rounds and wouldn't go back

Joseph Ivy 2024-08-30
We liked it so much, we played it on our 7 day 7 course golf trip. Just visually stunning.

Joseph Ivy 2024-08-30
Fantastic course. Favorite course for our group in the silver coast. Clubhouse, staff, views, and pace of play was all well above average. Would not hesitate to return.

Craig Cruickshank 2024-08-29
Course was nice but not great condition.

Xiaoyan huang 2024-08-24
We’ve played three golf courses in Obidos. We like all of them. West cliffs is amazing due to 1/ view and 2/ challenging holes.

Sacha Haken 2024-07-08
A very challenging but beautiful links course set with views over the Portuguese Atlantic coast. Excellent fairways and fast greens. Beautiful clubhouse in serene surroundings! Tip- take a few balls!

Geers 2024-07-01
Great to play West Cliffs, but what a challenge. Beautiful location,magnificent views.

Damien Petticrew 2024-06-25
Great test of your holding ability. Top class with unbelievable scenery and facilities

David Bryant 2024-06-21
Amazing views, amazing golf course, amazing club house and burgers!

Malcolm Thomas 2024-06-17
As excellent as ever. Nothing is too much trouble.

Alexander Bedford 2024-06-08
Amazing course with ridiculous greens especially on the par 3's!

Gerry Foley 2024-05-01
Superb designed golf course ,although maintenance of the fairways and bunkers not as good as when I last played there a year ago . All the building of new apartments and houses takes away from what were previously stunning views .The staff in Pro shop and restaurant were very helpful and friendly .

Charles Stadnik 2024-04-29
Course was a challenge, the back nine especially. Recommend the equivalent of blue tees for not too long hitters, as could be in plenty of trouble otherwise. General standard was very good.

Tom Lawlor 2024-04-26
Enjoyable course but the greens weren’t up the standard of other local courses, and some of the carries off the tee are too long for casual golfers

Bruce Reardon 2024-04-17
A beautiful golf course in excellent condition, what a challenge. Buggies are pretty standard for the price.

Roel Verhoeven 2024-04-16
Beautiful golf course with amazing views en perfect condition. Really tough also with a lot of wind and no places to miss.

Sherri Hedd 2024-03-27
It’s an amazing course, very challenging

Shi-Joon Yoo 2024-03-26
One of the best in the world.

simon davis 2024-03-23
Excellent

Nigel Taylor 2024-03-22
Great course, but difficult!

Thierry Leroy 2024-03-22
Third time we play it, excellent golf with stunning conditions and breathtaking views.

Joachim Zeeb 2024-03-14
Great Layout, interesting holes, though to walk, superb views on the Atlantic Ocean, very good conditions, have to played more than once to know where to play! A real tester.

Andy Green 2024-03-02
Immaculately presented golf course with fantastic, speedy greens. A short ish course with a very interesting, tricky layout and large, tricky green complexes. I have played most courses in Portugal and this is about as good as gets. Highly recommended.

Dagmar Staar 2024-02-19
Nice and difficult

Guy Mercier 2024-02-17
Excellent golf + lodging package in a nice 3 bedrooms apartment + world class golf courses. Many thanks for your support services !!

Charles Koh 2024-02-09
Very long course - even from ladies tees. View is great.

Tom Lawlor 2024-01-29
Excellent course with fabulous views. We have played it many times and it has matured well. Greens are excellent , if challenging. Tee boxes are poor, very uneven. The course deserves better

LATXAGUE 2023-12-16
Great course

Pieroni Andrea Francesco 2023-12-15
Great Course and not so easy to play. Very friendly and very helpful staff reception and others. All, Fairways and Greens in excellent condition. We loved to play this course and it‘s a must when you are in this area.

Mr Ronald Lee 2023-11-05
What a superb course. Played it twice and despite heavy rain the course held up well. Greens good and wide fairways. Some holes with large carries from the tee. Starters very pleasant who gave good advice on which tees to play depending on handicap. Lovely views of the course and ocean from the clubhouse outside balcony. Huge toasted sandwiches with chips. A great experience.

John Whiteley 2023-10-31
Excellent as always

John Whiteley 2023-10-29
Excellent as always

Philippe Frey 2023-10-23
Great experience.Realy a great course. Nice club house, good service...

Gerry Foley 2023-10-18
Very good , although catering staff are not efficient in this environment. Not enough experience.

Klaus Schmidt 2023-10-17
Best course in Portugal.

Wayne Buckley 2023-10-13
Enjoyed the course. Found it In very good condition. Greens provide a good test for putting. Would recommend.

Sheila Roughton-Smith 2023-10-12
Beautiful course but very busy

Chris Hamler 2023-10-09
Incredible golf course! Fantastic design and very challenging. Couldn’t ask for a better layout or views. However, the condition of fwys were not good and the bunkers were just awful. If this course was conditioned at a higher level it would easily be a top 100 in the world. Still recommend playing, but hopefully the conditions improve.

Wolfgang Puchalla 2023-10-07
Mainly everything good except pace of play! Too many flughts on the course result in a round time of 5h15....

Grahame Lamb 2023-09-29
Our round took over 5 hours to complete which is far too long. The course is very demanding and challenging even for a competent golfer let alone high handicappers. The difficulty was increased by pin positions being placed where even the pro's would struggle. Watching playing partners struggle to 4 putt from 10 to 15ft was painful and miserable. The pin positions on 2,3,6,7,8,10,11,13,15,16 were far too extreme. The club needs to understand that they have a course that although visually stunning needs to be set up for the majority not the minority otherwise 5 hour rounds become the norm. Grahame (8 handicap)

Stefan Reif 2023-09-26
Great (but tough) course. Expect longer rounds but otherwise great.

Graham Childs 2023-09-24
an extremely tough 18 but one of the most beautiful courses I have played

Tony Walsh 2023-09-22
Stunning golf course. What a great layout. A number of blind shots! Course in fabulous condition. Staff really helpful and friendly. Only downside - a 5 hour round as groups ahead were slow. We didn't mind though as the weather was lovely! Will definitely be back!

Richard Moore 2023-09-19
A great course to play. It is a very challenging track, but our group (handicaps between 4 and 16) all managed. The design of the course is different to most in that the fairways have been cut into the natural dunes with (apparently) no work undertaken on the dune areas. The natural vegetation on the dunes is thick scrub/gorse, so if you are off the fairway the ball is gone, guaranteed. If you are up for the challenge, this course will reward you, but if you are looking for holiday golf, you are best off elsewhere. The clubhouse and service are great.

Richard Trist 2023-09-14
Good course but a 5 hour round spoiled the experience when you are waiting on every shot

Marius Naum 2023-09-11
Beautiful course as always. The flights of 4 people are certainly slowing down the game.

Jerry Fish 2023-09-03
One of the most beautiful courses I’ve ever played and very well maintained! I will definitely go back! Improvement opportunities are the buggy’s are need to be replaced in my opinion with a digital screen. Very common in the U. S. Especially for this course as there are a few holes where you really can’t see the fairway very well and some blind spots too! A digital screen can share info about each hole, distance and electronic score keeping just to name a few benefits. The clubhouse was pretty week compared to other courses I’ve played in Portugal. Minimal chooses if you need balls and the ladies were very nice but appeared to be more receptionist and just collecting money from what I could see. It’s also very small!

Roseman Hassan 2023-08-12
The course in good condition

Dirk Wengenroth 2023-08-03
Great. Long roughs. Difficult, nothing for rookies!

Hannes Bogner 2023-07-18
Excellent course in a beautiful landscape. Very friendly staff.

Jan Huysmans 2023-07-15
This is the most difficult but also the most beautiful and well maintained course in the region. On a lot of holes, especially in the back nine, there are magnificent views of the ocean and its surroundings. Choose your tee box wisely because a drive not on the fairway is mostly a lost ball. From the white tees, there are a lot of holes where you need a carry of 175m to hit the fairway so you need to hit a good one every time. The greens are very fast en with a lot of undulations and run-offs so your putter has to be hot as well. A true test but if you are not playing your best, just enjoy the views and come back another time. We enjoyed the food and drinks afterwards in the clubhouse. The staff were very friendly.

Ariejan Tulen 2023-06-16
Beautiful golf course that regularly turns out to be too big for our level!

Alain Charbonnier 2023-06-12
le meilleur de la côte ouest, super entretenu, tellement beau qu'on en oublie la difficulté. -**- the best on the west coast, super maintained, so beautiful that you forget the difficulty.

Yvonne de Bie 2023-06-03
What a wonderful golfcourse! We had a great golfe experience! High quality fairways and greens, challenging lay out.

Peter Smith 2023-06-01
Excellent. Very good facilities and helpful staff. The whole development is under construction but that did not detract from the enjoyment of the course with wonderful views. The course is undoubtedly challenging with some long carries and, if we had not played reasonably well, it would have been very tough. However, there is a range of tees and the starter was helpful in trying to make sure we played off the most appropriate for our handicaps. We shall certainly go back to West Cliffs but will avoid Praia D’El Rey!

David parsons 2023-05-27
I booked what i thought was a two ball slot only to find we were paired with another couple. I think you should make it very clear at the booking process that this could occur.

Stuart young 2023-05-24
Lovely golf course but took 5 hours 15 minutes for our round which is way too much. They need to have Marshall’s out on the course to speed play up. 4 hours 30 minutes should be plenty of time for a round

Colm 2023-05-13
Amazing course, every hole is different. Great views, challenging holes and friendly welcoming staff

simon davis 2023-05-10
Great day

Hubert Kamml 2023-04-30
Interessanter Course mit einer Vielzahl von schwierigen Löchern. Stark gebucht. Staff im Streß. 5:30 für eine Runde (Start um 10:00) ist viel zu lang. Keine Elektrotrolleys oder Buggy am Ankunftstag buchbar (wären sinnvoll). -**- Interesting course with a variety of difficult holes. Heavily booked. Staff in stress. 5:30 for a round (start at 10:00) is far too long. No electric trolleys or buggies available on arrival day (would be useful).

Kieran Walsh 2023-04-25
Amazing course aside from 16 &17 weak holes

Leon Levasier 2023-03-26
Very beautiful course.

Lauermann Andreas 2023-03-14
Fantastic course with spectacular views. Need a lot of accuracy. A must at the silver coast

VAN IERLAND 2023-02-21
Very busy !

James Duncan 2023-01-31
A great course in the best condition of the four courses in this area this week.

Martin Georg Hilke 2022-10-17
The course earned 5 Stars. Do not choose the wrong tee box because of the scattered landscape between tee box and the fairway. Try to hold the ball straight and long. The greens are small and fast and the condition of care is perfect. Beautiful golfday ????

aidan 2022-10-13
What a gem of a golf course. Truly wonderful. It is not too easy however you couldn't but enjoy it as it is beautifully laid out. Stunning set up in a fab location.

Brian Hegarty 2022-10-02
Greens were poor

Anthony Barry 2022-10-01
Great

Ruud Bol 2022-09-28
High expectaitions after reading reviews. Very disapointed. Lttle variation in holes. Noten so special.

Laurence Roberts 2022-09-26
Far too slow at 51/2 hours. Each buggy given a tracker but not sure why they bother because nobody can have been checking on whichever group was causing the problem. Eventually the daylight failed, leaving a few disappointed golfers behind us too. The course itself is very challenging and excellent. The clubhouse staff all very good.

Peter Schlebusch 2022-09-23
Wonderful course in great condition. Greens a bit tricky.

Malcolm Thomas 2022-09-23
Wonderful, both on and off the course. Service for drinks/meals was superb. Well done. For the first time, we noticed a real difference in overall quality between Praia and West Cliffs.

Graham Childs 2022-09-19
incredibly hard but stunning

Simon Madill 2022-09-13
In short we loved it. Fantastic golf course, in good condition. Men need to be fairly long and steady off tees. Ladies tees much more straightforward, even our 36 hcp lady loved the course. Service in golf reception exemplary. We had dinner in clubhouse which was a little pricey but good quality. Definitely one to come back to.

Jose kramer 2022-09-12
Beautiful !!!

Alfonso Palacios Muñoz 2022-09-11
Gran campo, se nota la calidad en cuanto llegas a la casa club. Campo no muy largo si sales de los tee 55, pero difícil de jugar si no colocas bien la bola en calle. Greenes muy movidos.

Manuel Coelho 2022-09-05
Magnificent golf course design and immacualtely maintained, will play it again soon.

Pascal PLICHTA 2022-08-23
One of the most beautiful golf courses in Europe without any doubt. Sea views, a very technical route. Very well integrated into the natural environment, not for beginners... A sporty course, uneven terrain, sometimes long connections, I advise a buggy. Un des plus beaux parcours d Europe sans aucun doute. Des vues mer , un tracé très technique. Très bien intégré au milieu naturel Debutant s abstenir .Parcours sportif, dénivelés, liaisons quelquefois longues, je conseille un buggy.

Christophe Sieber 2022-08-08
This golf course is absolutely amazing, it fits to very good players hcp<10 as it’s very narrow. The course is in perfect conditions. If you are an occasional player, bring 10-20 balls in your bag.

Georges da violante 2022-08-08
Perfect golf course, really one of the best I é er played even difficult and challenging when it is thé fiesta Time

Jon Atcherley 2022-07-04
Great course and great value for money - Clubhouse is very nice too.

David Beese 2022-06-23
Are reception and the golf course were both extremely good we thank everyone for their hospitality and the course was excellent BeeseyDave ?????????

Ariejan Tulen 2022-06-23
We have played west Cliffs Golf Course several times in previous years and it is still a great experience. It should be noted, however, that the course is by no means easy to play! The course can be done with a Trolly, but on hot days I would choose a Buggy!

Joachim Mahn 2022-06-22
Fantastic Golf course. On my way! Scenic view Follower the Last one. Perfect. Bit too much traffic on the course. We had to wait too Long, cause a few guys Were very slow. So only 9 of 10 points

Charbonnier Alain 2022-06-21
Super parcours TB entretenu

Chris Parr 2022-06-20
Another great course in stunning surroundings

Andrew Denton 2022-06-12
Best course

Ian Sampson 2022-06-11
Great course in superb condition. Make sure you get the right tees

Ben Walker 2022-05-30
Lovely

Andrew Hannah 2022-05-23
A fabulous golf course, the best I have played to date.

Simon Kaye 2022-05-14
Excellent course and courteous staff at every touch point

Kieran Walsh 2022-05-13
great day out in West Cliffs - some fabulous holes - come here every year and cant wait to come back already

Ronald McDonald 2022-05-10
Magnificent

Ian Twigg 2022-05-10
Did not disappoint. Expecting a stunning course from all I had read, and it certainly was. If I was a high handicapper then definitely listen to the starter who advises the appropriate tee to use. Greens are the toughest I’ve ever putted on with many being a tad unfair (no chance of getting first putt near the hole due to massive undulations, tiers, speed and pin positions). But if your in the area you have to play it.

Ronald McDonald 2022-05-06
Excellent golf course and a pleasure to play

Jeff Pinsent 2022-05-04
Outstanding yet again, the course is magnificent and very challenging. The service from the entire staff is first class

AMIGUINHO CORDEIRO Michel 2022-05-03
Many thanks to Marisa for her flexibility, kindness and efficiency

Tom Lawlor 2022-04-25
Greens were a little slow. Some bunkers weren’t well maintained. Reception tried to overcharge us.

Sean Murray 2022-04-21
very good all round. Tough, tough course but superbly laid out with great views. Staff very pleasant and welcoming

Dave Bocarro 2022-04-18
Very good.

Leon Levasier 2022-03-24
Great and beautiful course, but bring enough balls

Eric Peyer 2022-03-23
First time playing. Tough course with challenging tee shots and good playing conditions. The undulating greens are well protected by sometimes very punishing bunkers. You definitely need your best game to score on this course.

Liam O Sullivan 2022-03-17
The Jewel in the crown of the Silver Coast. By far the best of the three local courses. Great facilities from the driving range to the changing rooms. Staff very polite and helpful. Exceptional food and a must. Only negative is too many old holes cut near the hole in actual play. A great course from the 63 tees. A++++++

Patrick Mclaughlin 2022-03-10
Great course but on the day the weather made it one of the most difficult courses I have played anywhere in the world. Long carry’s off tees into a gale force wind and simply devilishly difficult greens, but a great experience none the less.

Catherine Lucius-lowe 2022-03-03
Beautiful course with stunning views. Course in very good condition. We were unlucky, today there were high winds which made it an extremely frustrating experience. It’s not a golf course for amateurs in such wind! Friendly and efficient staff.

Steve Forster 2022-02-22
Fantastic!

Norma Askew 2022-02-15
Fantastic course really difficult greens back 9 is superb

Tom Lawlor 2022-01-26
Lovely course, very enjoyable. Only disappointing aspect is that some of the buggy paths are in poor condition, and great care is needed to avoid an accident.

Rogier de Snoo 2021-11-29
West Cliffs is great, stunning views and in perfect condition. Price is right. Only a bit to tough a test for the average amateur (erros get punished big time).

Ygonin Alain 2021-11-21
Un parcours magnifique pour les yeux. Bon entretien, mais il est préférable de prévoir quelques balles de rechange car tout égarement est pénalisant

Mick Tuohy 2021-11-14
Fabulous lay out and one I rated very highly when I played here 2 years ago. Unfortunately Covid has not been kind to the course. Bunkers were in terrible condition, the greens were hairy and the cheap golf rates mean you have all sorts of hackers playing (slowly) and not fixing pitch marks or bunkers. Very disappointed. Would have given it a lower score if not for the good lunch

Joachim Stark 2021-11-04
Difficult course but very nice and spectacular! Very friendly and happy staff allover in reception, buggie master and restaurant! Also very good food. Much better perceived thanPraia del rey….

Jouko Harno 2021-11-04
Limited amount if golf buggies. Paths between tee boxies were in rugged condition. Too long distance from tee boxes to fairways and bushies before and on sides of fairways need alot of clearing. Course is not finalized yet, it needs work.

John Whiteley 2021-10-30
Course in great condition despite intense rainfall. Greens putted well and the pace of golf 4 hrs 15 was good.

Anthony Claeyssens 2021-10-24
Amazing greens, amazing scenery. Don’t pretend to play bolder than you are. Playing 51 Hcp 15on makes a lot of sense to enjoy

Klaus Schmidt 2021-10-18
very enjoyable golf course along the coast. Hard to play when windy conditions. Long ways to next tee box. Fairways and greens in very good condition. Way too few buggies, no buggy available to book.

Brian Hegarty 2021-10-11
Really enjoyable but parts of the course not in very good condition. The greens were poor

Gerry Foley 2021-10-06
Excellent course , best we played in Portugal so far over past 15 years.. Lovely Club house also.

Michael johnson 2021-10-04
Excellent day at the wonderful westcliffs , the best thing was the activity of the Marshall in keeping play moving and while the play was slow at around 5 hours he intervened several times and eventually instructed two 4 balls ahead to let us through at 10th , well done to him it makes a big difference

Martin Georg Hilke 2021-09-29
Good Course, phantastic landscape, weak restaurant…

Philippe Weyens 2021-09-26
Highly challenging.

Charles Agthoven 2021-09-23
What a geest course. Not only the golf course, but also the people are more than friendly and put everything in place to make it a memorabel day.

Graham Childs 2021-09-20
West Cliffs is a punishing course but is one of the most beautiful and enjoyable tracks I have ever played

Richard Trotter 2021-09-19
Good course superb greens......

Denis Earley 2021-09-19
Tough course but a great test at the same time really enjoyed the challenge staff very help and friendly

Heinrich Pitas 2021-09-16
Ein sehr gepflegter, sehr anspruchsvoller Platz in einer tollen Landschaft. Um den Platz aber zu verstehen muss man ihn mehrmals spielen. Wichtig! Genügend Bälle dabei!!!

Koen Poels 2021-09-15
Charming personnel - pretty challenging couse in excellent shape but - my god - long way for men's front before you get on the fairway. Hcp 24 and marshall advised to play 51/blue tees, still challenging. Buggy more than welcome, trolley doable but quite a distance between holes! Many holes have splendid ocean views

Denis Earley 2021-09-15
Played for second time today it’s a brilliant course with great variety of holes Regards Denis

Denis Earley 2021-09-13
Just finished very impressed with the course looking forward to playing again on wednesday Regards Denis

Pierre bourrel 2021-08-31
L’accueil est très sympathique, les buggys sont hélas un peu délicats, mais la réparation sur le parcours a été très aimable et rapide. Le parcours nécessite d’être connu car il y a toujours pas mal de trous aveugles. Il est en très bon état.

Micaela Bartolini 2021-08-29
Percorso molto bello, green impegnativi, bellissima visuale sull'oceano. Consiglio uso del cart.

Joeri Van Bogaert 2021-08-19
Positive: Beautiful views and nature next to the magnification complex. But: 1- golf course designed by someone that never played golf in his life 2- tee boxes all directed towards to woods instead of the fairways 3- greens surrounded by bushes instead of leaving a little space for error 4- greens not receptive even when playing a par 3 - 130m shot with an 8 iron 5- fairways turning and turning asking for blind shots without any indication of the hazards 6- hidden water hazards without high sticks to show the hazards 7- tee-box fairway distance requiring often a carry of +190m from yellow equivalent tees, with these fairways being narrow and declining towards the water 8- non markings on where to go to the next for the next hole/tee boxes 9- tee boxes not marked from the paths, ao you have to go up the tee-box to know which one it is 10- oddly shaped greens on par 3 without area collecting balls if you miss it, but only deep rough around the greens 11- Club house is modern but no terras in the sun available so cold 12- staff is not professional in the club house and waiting for drinks takes ages 13- the caddie master and greenkeepers staff in charge is really friendly and good 14- people at the pro-shop are cool, distant and not customer oriented My advice is to hire a golf director that finishes the course and manages the staff

Véronique Gantoy 2021-08-17
Magnifique parcours. Très exigeant. Le paysage sublime. A faire sans hésiter.

Roger Anstee 2021-08-13
Excellent reception and buggy provision. Welcoming and humorous starter! Course in excellent condition

Andrew Denton 2021-08-02
Excellent course. Reception advised you booked us in for 8.50 am when we turned up at 10.50 am

Robert Karlson 2021-05-17
West Links is undoubtedly the best course in Portugal. Outstanding condition with perfect fairways and superb greens. A real test of golf! The staff couldn't be anymore accommodating and I couldn't recommend it more highly.

Richard guest 2021-05-06
Top class golf course and club house Course extremely testing for average golfer as no room for any error as balls lots in deep vegetation Mostly suited to single handicap golfers but there are much easier tee boxes Club house recommend golf buggy as hilly and large distance between greens and next tee

GRAHAME LAMB 2021-01-25
Beautiful golf course that is a very tough test off the 59 tee boxes

Jacques Sleven 2020-03-23
4th time we played it it is amazing. Very difficult but amazing. One day we will know how to play it. Will be back

Lars Hansen 2020-03-10
Fabulous setting......starter joined our walking 2 ball with another two ball in a buggy- which makes for a rather ''brisk'' walk to ensure we kept the pace (buggies in front and buggies behind). .......no real time to enjoy the scenery! Design and maintenance top notch.

Mark Sugamori 2020-03-08
Beautiful but challenging course. Take advice from the starter. Hit the fairway or risk losing a ball.

Jim Dowling 2020-03-01
Very good

Richard Parker 2020-02-25
Incredible golf course, congratulations

John Whiteley 2020-02-02
Course in excellent

Tom Lawlor 2020-01-25
Very enjoyable. Lovely clubhouse, friendly staff. Course was in super condition. Really enjoyable day

Steve Wallace 2020-01-23
Great Course and well looked after.

Marco Heinrichs 2019-12-26
Everything great.

Dan Holding 2019-12-10
Simply stunning! I genuinely don’t remember a bad hole. The 18th was incredible. The clubhouse too was phenomenal and the burger was the best I’ve ever had at a golf club!

Patrik Helle 2019-11-20
Top golf course, stunning atlantic view and challenging holes. A must play!

Thierry Leroy 2019-11-15
Excellent -challenging- course. Very well maintained.

Klaus Schmidt 2019-11-12
excellent course

Hoang Hang 2019-11-10
Very very beautiful golf course

Todd Lindsay 2019-11-02
Visually stunning. Great condition. So tough to play, especially in the wind.

Lillian Nervik 2019-10-20
Brearhtakinh wiew! The course is in perfect condision! Love it!

Neil Sutton 2019-10-18
I do not believe I would ever say that a 5 hour round of golf would be a pleasure....but it was with a beautiful day, great views and an excellent course. Every hole is a picture and makes you think...and when you get to the greens there is still a lot of work to do. The rough is penal so don't go there but the fairways look narrower than they are in reality so go for a positive swing and you will probably be fine! A great challenge in a 3 club wind.

Armin Linder 2019-10-17
Hammer Platz in tollen Pflegezustand. Fast von jedem Abschlag hat man den Atlantik im Blick. Tolle Ausblicke den ganzen Tag. Länge ist gefragt. Speziell wenn es windig ist.

Philippe Frey 2019-10-17
Great and very nice

James Cadge 2019-10-14
Amazing golf course! Played it on a lovely day, perfect weather. We were advised to play from more forward tees than we planned, which was great advice because it was tricky enough of those tees! Only downside was lack of golf boards for hire. But overall, brilliant course, friendly staff, beautiful clubhouse. Will definitely be back!

Joachim Stark 2019-10-02
Nice course but superfast greens and tricky to read.

Nigel. Robertson 2019-10-02
A tough course especially the first time you play it - a straight game is essential - we played it on a day of gentle wind, good luck if the wind is really blowing. Very scenic and in good condition other than the bunkers which were pretty rough.

Brian Hegarty 2019-10-01
Course getting better every year and great food in the clubhouse.

KOTA Dayananda 2019-09-29
Very good course& well organised golf club

KOTA Dayananda 2019-09-27
Good

Ton Opdam 2019-09-23
Fabulous course : best one yet !

Graham Childs 2019-09-23
Extremely challenging but stunning course, incredible views and very well maintained. Loved it

nikki moss 2019-09-22
Absolutely gutted to play this on the only day of serious rain in 2 weeks. The course is fabulous but we had to stop at 12 holes as soaked to the skin, couldn’t see a thing and just too miserable to continue

Martin Zwemmer 2019-09-21
The course is stunningly beautiful. However because of long carries to fairways not easy for high handicappers. Clubhouse is good, so is restaurant. Staff is friendly.

Bernd Neumann 2019-09-21
Nice course. Only the paths could be in better condition.

Peter Ciccone 2019-09-20
Absolutely superb layout with terrific views in a natural habitat. Only reasons for not giving a rating of ten were slow greens and slow pace of play on the day of our visit. Will definetely return.

Andrew Molloy 2019-09-18
Great course and lovely clubhouse only downside is it’s a little far from the city.

Jeffrey Pharoah 2019-09-18
A course that has a fantastic layout and will get better as it evolves. Outrageous walking distance between greens and tees.

Max De Bleser 2019-09-11
perfect

Alan Williamson 2019-09-02
Great golf course, a real challenge and excellent facilities.

Richard Huddlestone 2019-08-29
Very nice gold course albeit don’t stray from the fairway

Mark Thorpe 2019-08-27
Nice course but very quiet so unfortunately ended up playing as a one ball - all organisation and hospitality prefect.

Jean Paul Smets 2019-08-14
One of the most spectacular en beautiful courses ever played. Links golf at it's best. A hard course when there's no wind. A very hard course when the wind blows from the Atlantic. But the whole experience is breathtaking. Lay out of the holes, the surroundings and the quality of the course.

Jonathan Brooks 2019-08-01
Superb venue - would recommend anyone adds to their golfing itinerary in the Óbidos region - bring lots of balls though as a tough track !

Thomas Schmidt 2019-07-16
super golf course - perfect greens - nice views - -exciting holes/layout - rather hilly which does some good exercise - absolutely recommendable - greenfee at Euro 55 is a super deal / cool clubhouse / bar - with proper golf running on the big screen

Ashley Bissett 2019-07-05
One of the best courses you will ever play and incredible value for money. Fantastic experience.

Jon Atcherley 2019-07-01
Wow - What a course. This is up there with some of the best courses I have ever played. 17th and 18th are amazing finishing holes. For the price you pay at other courses, this doesn't get any better. Nice relaxed clubhouse and very friendly. This course is a must and will be back next year.

Ian Sampson 2019-06-28
Outstanding golf course, greens a real test you must bring your best game to score well. Different tee blocks for all levels, biggest challenge of the three courses we played but you must play it!!

Richard Westhead 2019-06-26
Great course, quite hilly, depending on your age you might need a buggy.

stewart craig 2019-06-16
Found this course very tough especially the severe rough. The greens were also extremely difficult to read and very fast. Staff were friendly and club house welcoming.

Neil Fleming 2019-06-13
Enjoyed everything , especialjyvtge challenging course

Barry Donovan 2019-06-11
Too difficult for mere mortals. Lovely location and natural design but the course has been ‘tricked ‘ up . Crazy greens

Chris Parr 2019-06-11
Wow what an experience playing here, spectacular views and a really challenging course one of the best in Europe

Michael Knebel 2019-06-08
Very demanding course. Players get tired after 12 holes. Loosing many Balls......takes time .

Hans Juergen Roethig 2019-06-05
First class golf course in absolute fabulous conditions!

Véronique Gantoy 2019-06-04
Parcours magnifique. Greens extras. Paysage sublime. A faire absolument

Wolfgang Mäder 2019-05-30
Great golfcourse! A lot of fun

Shaun Carney 2019-05-29
Great course and good layout. Challenging greens. Wonderful clubhouse. Rough extremely punishing if you missed a fair way. Would highly recommend.

Bettina Wolff 2019-05-28
Fantastic golf course, great check in experience, very enjoyable.

Beate Butte 2019-05-28
Nice course, we thought the greens were a bit too hard (HCP 5)

Gillian Smith 2019-05-27
Fabulous course, well organised and great experience.

Tim Newman 2019-05-15
The GPS for playing groups is a great idea and this is the best trip we’ve had for speed of play

Marc Berger 2019-05-04
We were not lucky because of a severe sea fog. The course was very challenging and the greens fast. Hope to play another time with better conditions.

Petri Vesa 2019-05-02
Course in good shape although the weather was not so nice. Some of par 3:s were tricky in the strong wind

Tom Lawlor 2019-05-01
Course in great condition and some lovely views. Some bunkers could be better maintained.

Peter Madden 2019-04-30
Absolutely stunning golf course, not a weak hole to be found. Great conditioning and a thrill from start to finish. Great variety of holes, good clubhouse and great staff

Jeff Pinsent 2019-04-30
Impeccable service as always from a great team and the course is just breath taking and a real challenge

Christoph Wey 2019-04-28
Absolutly magnificent. Great place to play Golf. Rather dificult but amazing. Any time again

Susanne Hollfelder 2019-04-25
Challenging course in perfect condition, greens quick and difficult Staff very supportive Overall a perfect golf day, even the weather played along

Alan Andrews 2019-04-23
Great course fairways bunkers tees greens and the views of course. bit of construction around the course with it being still new so in 10 years once established and developed more it will be awesome. The surfboard trolley also a highlight as well for something different and adding to the expierence. Kind Regards Alan

Papp Miklos 2019-04-22
great golf experience

Andrew Burns 2019-04-04
Tough course - amazing

Patrik HELLE 2019-04-03
excellent golf course, unfortunatelly veeeeery slow playing pace (5h 15m).

Ling Wai Hong 2019-04-01
We enjoyed the course the most. Marshall was very rigid in keeping the pace as it was very busy that day.

Soren Stougaard 2019-03-31
Dont mis this golfcourse, superior !

Urs luther 2019-03-30
Very inteesting corse in pristine condition Stromgly booked - slow play Nevertheless a must to play

Torben Iversholt 2019-03-30
Fantastic golf course. The best of 48 courses I have played in Portugal. Great design and great variation. Fast greens and difficult rough. Keep out of it. Often far to walk from green to next tee - a buggy is good. Some slow play and the Marshall does not push slow players. More ready golf, please. Great training facilities and helpful staff

Brent 2019-03-28
Great course with very friendly staff. Highly recommended!

Brent 2019-03-25
Awe inspiring! What an exoerience!

Schmidt 2019-03-19
West Cliffs is the absolute highlight Course with challenging fairways and curvy Greens. Stunning views of the Atlantic coast guaranteed. Take care o the wind, that blows your ball away. Friendly staff at the reception and on the round. Restaurant and Clubhouse with assorted Food and Drinks. Friendly staff, quick. Would really rate 11 out of 10.

Billy O’Sullivan 2019-03-18
Fantastic golf course, very challenging in every way.

Per Pettersson 2019-03-12
Very good

Mr William Thompson 2019-03-09
Superb. Probably the best course in Portugal - every hole a signature. Take plenty of balls and hire a buggy- I walked 11kms!

Lau Tuxen 2019-02-24
Magnificent course in top condition and with breathtaking views. High servicelevel.

Steve Horne 2019-01-19
It was great. Weather was kind and the course and staff were perfect. I would highly recommend playing here

Simon Kaye 2019-01-03
Excellent

Schrepfer Juergen 2018-12-11
Beautiful landscape. Challenging course. Take some extra balls with you, if you miss the fairway you might not find your ball in the dunes.

Alain Dewispelaere 2018-11-27
Very challenging and beautiful course!

Siobhan Patterson 2018-10-21
Excellent course, a tough test,

Gilles Herbst 2018-10-19
The round was great.

Maike Blum 2018-10-14
Best Course ever!

Knut Schroeder 2018-10-13
New course. Need more time to complete details on the course. Information missing about minimum distance for tee of on various holes.

Graham Childs 2018-10-01
great clubhouse, beautiful course - not easy!

Claudia Juncker 2018-09-27
This is easily one of the best golf courses I ever played (and I have played all over the world in many countries...) Fair, but challenging. Depending on the wind it can be very tough, but on a calm day, it is just beautiful. Highly recommended!!!

Enrico Chiocci 2018-09-27
Very Perfect and cheap Service.......Raccomanded

Henriette Both 2018-09-23
Very nice golf course, but you should take a buggy.

Fredrik Elwing 2018-09-18
Played the course for the second time, scenery is at times spectacular! Course experience remains a bit mixed, its a tough course to walk, 10,5km in very hilly terrain. Some of the holes are bordering on being a bit unfair when even good shots sometimes get penalised. On the day, the fairways were not mowed, a bit soft and yielded no roll, greens were very slow. Overall, the course would probably benefit from a bit more maintenance. Its the type of course thats interesting to play every once in a while but I wouldn't want to have it as my home course.

Olaf Wilsdorf 2018-09-17
Great Golfcourse, nice Clubhouse und friendly staff. My runner up after Monte Rei

Ton Opdam 2018-09-04
Excellent course, but with narrow fairways and unforgiving rough, so very difficult.. Very nice staff. Very quiet in the course, so I had a splendid round.

Alan Thompson 2018-08-21
Super golf course, very enjoyable to play in the excellent conditions we had - would be a bit tougher if the wind had been blowing!! Nce set up with good practice facilities and clubhouse

Peter Wevers 2018-08-16
What a wonderful course. Everything is perfect.

peter haywood 2018-08-14
brilliant golf course, friendly staff, great facilities. highly recommended

Cimarelli 2018-07-03
Really good!!!

jacques sleven 2018-06-24
Maybe too difficult for the higher hcp

Greg Banbury 2018-06-18
Excellent course and facilities. This was the best of the three courses we played (Royal Obidos, Bom Sucesso, West Cliffs). Would play again.

Mr Dobbin 2018-06-16
We teed off in the fog at .8.40 I’d call it unplayable No idea where we were going I’m sure it’s a cracker on a clear day Couldn’t see 50 m in front A little better back 9 Overall staff not as welcoming as Royal Obidos or the offering Hard to believe climate can be so different only 90 minutes from Lisbon Not a great golf day I’ll hope algarve will be better

Robin Edwards 2018-06-14
I was very happy with your service in booking for me not only West Cliffs, but Praia Del Rey & Royal Obidos.

Richard Dentith 2018-06-13
A really interesting and beautiful course in an amazing setting. Weather wasn't too good so detracted slightly from the experience

Eric de Bruin 2018-06-11
Difficult golf course, very challenging. One of the best courses we ever played in Portugal.

cox 2018-06-07
The house in Praia d el Rey was very roomy, tastefully decorated, clean. The location in the resort was top .We recommend it .

Alex Bedford 2018-06-05
Play was too slow. Marshals did not do enough to sort problem. No drinks trolley.

Claude H Lalonde 2018-06-02
One of the best golf courses I’ve played.

Francois Guerin 2018-06-01
beau et très exigeant parcours avec certains point de vue envoutant....que du bonheur

David Rundle 2018-05-25
West Cliffs is super golf course but quite unforgiving if not on your game. Very scenic with the ocean a backdrop to many of the holes.

Tony Orre 2018-05-21
Very windy day, narrow fairways made the course a bit too difficult.

Pat Lavelle 2018-05-18
Beautiful course greens needed a shave but all and all a great challenge slow play was an issue five and a half hours to play. Staff were very helpful and friendly the bottles of water was a nice touch.

Malcolm Thomas 2018-05-18
Friendly welcome. Course in good condition and we’ll presented. However, far too much sand in the bunkers which meant the balls were always plugging in them if the ball came in from a height. Greens in very good condition but were on the slow side - this was due to the fact that they needed a cut!! Just under 5 hours for the round which is very slow indeed. No coursed Marshall on the back 9 holes which was disappointing. Far too many poor golfers playing a tough course.

Vincent Rose 2018-05-18
Excellent course with tee boxes to suit all golfers. Considering only open about a year its looks very mature

Robert Wood 2018-05-13
This has to be one of my favourite courses ever. Amazing setting, every hole is tough and it finishes with possibly the best final hole in golf. That said it is a heck of a walk, we took just over 5 hours without being held up

Andy Goodwin 2018-05-12
Played here for the first time so had 2 rounds during our trip. Course was stunning. On first day play was very slow - over 5 hours to get round. On the second time our tee time was delayed 30 mins due to course maintenance which was odd! A drinks / snacks buggy would be good. Otherwise fantastic but challenging course

Peter Heinecke 2018-05-08
Great! West Cliffs is most fantastic, it will be one of the best Links courses I ever played when it is finished.

H.Seubring-Vierveijzer 2018-05-07
Nice looking course, with a lot of wild flowers.. The only reason the course isn’t easy is because of the long rough after the t-box and the green hardly to read for average player.

Mr Mia 2018-05-07
Unforgiving course but spectacular. Same comments as above Praia Del Rey.

simon davis 2018-05-03
Very tuff test of golf

Mr Matthew Cohen 2018-04-27
Amazingly sculpted course out of dunes topography. Stunning views from 5th hole onwards. Incredibly penal if you're offline off the tee, as if you miss the fairway and first cut as.i rough, you're in desert like sandy transition with bushes, plants, footprints, tyre tracks, etc.. Easy to lose a ball or have an unplayable. Some greens very severe with front to back slopes and tiers, and being firm, unless you strike perfectly, will not hold. With dramatic run offs, deep bunkers, transition or water around most greens, you need to make sure you miss in the right place.....or else. Wonderful experienceoberall, but don't play medal, you'll take all day! Fabulous clubhouse and excellent food and service.

Peter Matthews 2018-04-25
This was the most difficult course we played. To say it was difficult is an understatement. Anyone over an 18 handicap will find it too difficult, the narrow fairways and long carries are more than a challenge. The views are spectacular but as a group we all thought it was just to difficult which spoiled our experience. Goodness knows how many balls we lost!!

rolof regouin 2018-04-09
still exceptional and stunning........absolutely beautiful.........till they will start building houses and apartments....

Vincent Scholten 2018-04-07
Very poor route navigation signs, even for experienced traveller hard to find. Beautiful golf course however. Kitchen closes already at 7 pm ...

Véronique Gantoy 2018-04-01
Golf superbe. A découvrir absolument.

Patrick Hart 2018-04-01
Fantastic course. Greens were amazing and the course is a real challenge. Lots of blind shots and the wind adds to the difficulty, a real test to golfers of any ability.

Stephen Evans 2018-03-21
Friendly and efficient

Jussi Kotkanen 2018-03-19
Excellent course and service

Mr Whiteley 2018-02-27
The staff are excellent both at golf reception and starters. The course is still settling down with buggy paths just sandy tracks, but the greens, surrounds and fairways play well for a 9 month old course.

Simon Kaye 2018-02-08
Excellent course, spoiled by group of Italian golfers ahead who failed to rake bunkers rendering many unplayable. The problem was reported to the marshall at the end of the 1st hole, but no action was taken allowing the problem to be repeated throughout the course. We complained to the individuals concerned on the 17th tee. They were apologetic. This could have been resolved by the marshall

Max Wenzel 2018-02-06
Really good golf course and in excellent condition.

Fredrik Elwing 2017-11-29
We enjoyed a nice albeit quite windy day out at West Cliffs with a fair amount of sunshine and some stunning scenery. The course itself we also enjoyed however it was certainly a challenge in very blustery conditions, we enjoyed most aspects of the course however, given that the fairways are quite narrow in places, coupled with the wind, results in many shots missing the fairway.......BALLS ARE VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND OFF THE FAIRWAYS, THIS WILL SLOW DOWN PLAY TO PAINFUL 5-6 HOUR ROUNDS, WE FEAR, WHEN THE COURSE GETS BUSY! ALSO, IF THE GREENS GET MUCH QUICKER THAN THEY WERE TODAY, WHEN THEY WERE QUITE SLOW, THEY WILL BECOME VERY DIFFICULT TO MASTER GIVEN THE NARROW SHAPE AND UNDULATING SHAPE OF MOST OF THEM!

Inacio Cunha 2017-11-28
Very difficult golf course, beautiful views. Greens incredibly fast. Distance between Greens and Tee boxes too far, defenitely a cart course too long to walk.

michael katzler 2017-11-21
Good looking course but too difficult to enjoy. I play off 10 handicap and the course although not too long is just too hard for my standard far prefer golf at Praia or Óbidos

Nick Ring 2017-11-14
Excellent course in very good condition with great clubhouse & facilities. Very difficult even off yellow tees so waiting every hole & took over 5hrs.

F. Notenboom 2017-11-13
amazing course very challenging to play in a great environment. People are very friendly and helpful. Never played on a course like this. The course is just open for 5 months, for sure come back here and play more.

Alistair Todd 2017-11-11
Wonderful golf course and great customer service from the starter and Claudia on reception

GRAHAME LAMB 2017-11-08
Stunning golf course, it gets better every time I play it

John Whiteley 2017-11-02
The course is starting to come together and is certainly better for playing . The greens are are true test with many subtle insulation. The staff are friendly and helpful especially Claudia on golf reception. My only criticism would be the bunkers which had lots of soft sand leading to plugged balls in bunkers faces and lack of courtesy by players not raking them. A tough but fair challenge.

Mickey Phillips 2017-10-29
Also difficult in places, but a very beautiful course.

Elizabeth Fiatarone 2017-10-24
Fabulous golf course- interesting fairways and excellent greens. Really enjoyed the layout of this course a fantastic design

Richard Monkhouse 2017-10-16
Excellent! Thank you.

Jim ward 2017-10-05
Exceptional

Padraic Delaney 2017-09-28
West Cliffs was incredible, some of the views and the whole course layout was just impeccable. I can see why it has been rated 25th in Europe this year.

Cheryl Myles 2017-09-23
Unfortunately we played this course in thick mist. So can't really tell you much about it. Where our balls landed seemed in good condition and so were the greens. Such a shame because we anticipated some great views. Quite tough, but not sure the weather helped.

Mr. Grant Prior 2017-09-16
Very impressive

David Badrick 2017-08-29
Shame about the fog!!

Malcolm Thomas 2017-08-09
First time experience and not the last. Service both on and off the course was excellent and the greens were the best we played. Give the course a year to mature and it will be outstanding. A couple of holes were a bit odd, but overall a wonderful experience.

michiel de heer 2017-08-03
Difficult and tight. Not always fair. Great clubhouse. Close to the sea so quite some days with mist

Oliver Burns 2017-07-12
This course will be very good when it matures. However, they MUST produce a Course Guide / Strokesaver booklet. There are a LOT of blind shots, especially on the front nine. They moved too many of the Yellow (5700) tees forward to near the blue (5500) tees and that spoiled the first round, making it too easy. There were also no pin sheets, so it was difficult to judge the distances without a laser DMD. There should be a golf bag drop off area when you arrive and caddymaster staff should then put golf bags on the buggies if you are using one. The course can be walked but the distances from greens to tees are long. The price of buggies is extortionate (€42.50). Teetimes.pt needs to negotiate a package price as there is for Royal Obidos and PDR.
