Built in the middle of a beautiful pine wood, and
with panoramic views over the sea, Pinhal Golf Course was originally designed by the Briton Frank Pinnick in 1976. It is an 18 hole course par 72 5709meters
In 1985 it was partly redesigned by the World famous American Robert Trent Jones, who introduced new challenges to the course. The combination of a British and American architect results in the golfer being confronted with different kinds of play. |

This course is laid through the pine tree forest of the area and is set back from the tourist beach area. The outward nine holes wander through the holiday villas that line the fairways. The well-positioned bunkers make the course very enjoyable to the players, testing their choice of clubs and their accuracy.
The outward nine holes at Vilamoura Golf Club's Pinhal Course wander through the holiday villa's that line the fairways, while the back nine return gently uphill and move through terrain that opens up into magnificent sea views
The Par-4 on the fourth hole is difficult to achieve with water waiting for the erring shot. The Par-3 on the eighth of 149 metres is tricky than it first appears. The back nine-holes have a more open feel but the slightly altered fifteenth will cause a problem to meet the Par-4 it requires. Hole 17, par 5 offers the chance of a birdie, or maybe an eagle, but only to those confident enough to risk driving off over the out of bounds area to the right, thereby drastically cutting through the fairway accentuated dog leg.
The greens are small and strategically placed bunkers make the course very enjoyable, testing the player's accuracy.
Handicap Required- Men 28 Ladies 36
Course Facilities:
The clubhouse was completely renovated and modernised at the turn of the millennium and from the large verandah one can enjoy a panoramic view over the excellent driving range and practice facilities.
