It was a nice course with spectacular teeshots. It was a little bit annoying, that we didn't have good information by arriving and the slow game, 5 hours

No ice at the start! Confusing signs between holes Complex layout

I had originally booked a 9.00am tee time and recived a confirmation email. Ten minutes later I received another email stating a 9.20 tee time. I checked with tee times.pt and they confirmed 9.20. Imagine my surprise when we arrived at Ombria reception to have them say no it’s 9.00am. Fortunately we had just enough time to get to the tee, but it confused the caddie master and we didn’t our clubs back for 15minutes. Very pleasant staff everywhere , and the introduction chat on the first tee even included the offer that as the club has no practice facilities, every golfer is allowed a mulligan from the mountain edge that is the first tee. What the starter should have told everyone was it was their duty to repair their pitch marks on the green, as sadly the greens were riddled with them, and I found myself repairing up to 6 on every hole! When will these ‘golfers’ ever learn? There didn’t appear to be any dress code at the club, as I saw two 30 somethings playing in tee shirts, beach shorts and trainers. Is it really asking too much to wear a polo shirt? Our biggest gripe was the completely inadequate course green to tee direction markings, tiny signs placed in the wrong place made us go wrong several times, including at the 8th, where we naturally followed the path up and ended up on the road, which caused the buggy to be locked from going forward, so I ad no choice but to reverse out onto the road and somehow back down to the path, crazy! Having played the 17th, we followed the only route all the way up the same path as the one serving the 10th, and isn’t wide enough for two carts to pass. Eventually arriving at the 18th, perched high up across from the car park ,you are faced with one of the most disappointing closing holes I’ve ever played. Blind dogleg left at just 274m. It’s blind becuase of the trees , and the only way to see the hole was to walk all the way to the front tees and peek round. I’m guessing it’s meant to be a risk or reward hole as the green is drivable , but for goodness sake cut down the trees to allow the view and hole to taken in. Lastly having played the 18th, you have to drive all the way back up the same path, so you are at risk of being hit by the following group s drives. Back at the road, there were NO signs whatsoever showing you the way back to the clubhouse. Overall, it was a visually pleasing course although very short in comparison to most courses.

Course has shaped up nicely since first playing in Jan. Greens were good - course design is interesting. One criticism is lack lack of signage when leaving greens to next tee or clubhouse.

Stroke 1 hole - 9th impossible drive for any players not single handicap - carry far too long off 53 tees

Visually a very nice course, some holes has an extrem hight difference. A few blind shots, but in general a good layout. Quality of the course is good.

Great course. Not walkable and head buggy master very rude about people taking buggies. I sat in buggy with another person and was told to get out then five mins later to get back into it. Not he service expected at that price.
