Palmares golf course highlights itself in the Algarve coast because of its prime location, facing the incredible blue scenario of the ocean. A Perfect contrast with the green of this unique 27-hole golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones II, which the links holes along the beach and the great views are the highlighting points.
The New 27 Holes Palmares Golf Course designed by Trent Jones Jr reopened mid 2010 and already Golf World magazine, has recently published its ‘top 100 in Europe’ list - and Onyria Palmares is ranked 26th in Continental Europe.

A very beautiful course, fun to play. Interesting holes partly by the sea in the dunes. Other holes with a gorgeous view. I enjoyed playing them and will be back during my next stay here in Portugal.

we had a little weather intervention in the morning but it didn't spoil our enjoyment of this excellent golf course. the top part of the course was once again magnificent but the newer links holes could use a little help when the weather improves. staff as always on the Algarve were faultless.

Fantastic course, once again in fine condition. Last year's difficulties now overcome as the greens were excellent.

Disappointing! Significantly overpriced for the current conditions = not worth the (high) price at all. For a recommendation the course needs significant improvement.
We have played Alvor and Lagos (holes 1 to 18). The tee boxes have seen aerification recently and are heavily sanded. Fairways are dry and hard with coarse spots in many places. The semi(?) rough consists of different grass sorts with different height and density. At several holes the unmaintained rough is next to the green which makes chipping a lottery game. The bunkers are OK (maybe the best part of the course). The greens have seen aerification recently as well and are sanded (like the tee boxes). Putting speed is fast but inconsistent. The ball is not rolling, but jumping in zic zac lines on the green.
Clear statement: directly after aerification I expect a 50% reduced green fee until the greens are in good condition again.
