Staff and experience was excellent. The course conditions were not to the level expected but understandably so.

As one of Europe's leading golf courses, I had been looking forward to playing Monte Rei for a long time. The greeting on arrival is impressive, and the helpful staff put your clubs on buggies, and park the car. You are then taken to the driving range and chipping/putting area, which is very good. The build up to playing the course definitely gives the impression you are getting the 'Monte Rei experience'. So to the course - the layout is excellent, but the condition was poor. That included fairways and greens. We played Quinta de Cima the following day, and it was in far better condition. So the general feeling in my group was of disappointment. 220 euro's is a lot of money, so we expected a course in pristine condition. Unfortunately that was not the case, and I will only return when reviews indicate a course in better condition. 220 euro's is not value for money.

The best course, but not in the best condition. Still played well, great service and facilities. Probably another year for it to get back to it's best

Fantastic resort, a course with a great layout. Fast greens, dry and yellow fairways. Extremly deep bunkers, but great type of sand in them. Second best course in Portugal after Dunas at Terras Da Comporta.

The staff were very friendly, efficient and helpful. Monte Rei is a beautiful course but due to the drought conditions the fairways were almost unplayable. Considering the condition of the fairways I did not feel that it was worth the cost.

Beautiful course and clubhouse and excellent service.
Fairways were very bare in places probably due to the water situation and greens not as good as normal but OK.
Lovely place to play golf.

Lovely course and again the staff were excellent. Fairways were poor compare to the twice I’ve played there before.

The course is a championship course by experience (obstacles everywhere demanding a good shot, precision and strategy). Loved the layout.
Only negative was that the course looked dry and not lush.
Otherwise a privileged experience.
