Experience Amendoeira
Amendoeira Golf Resort is the central Algarve’s top value destination, offering complimentary and unlimited play on two championship courses and night golf under the stars.
Value, Variety, and Unlimited Play
Amendoeira Golf Resort is the definitive resort for the golfer seeking maximum play time and incredible value without sacrificing championship quality in the sunny Algarve. Located in a tranquil valley just minutes from the busy coastal towns of Albufeira and Portimão, this sprawling destination offers a sophisticated blend of modern, residential style luxury and an unrivaled golf package. The primary draw is the complimentary and often unlimited golf on its two premier 18 hole courses for staying guests. It’s an ideal choice for groups and families who value space, the convenience of self catering, and the ability to play high caliber courses multiple times without the hassle of booking external tee times.
The Faldo and O’Connor Jnr Duo
The resort’s 36 holes of golf are masterpieces of modern design, named after their legendary creators. The Faldo Course, designed by Sir Nick Faldo, is a highly strategic and challenging layout. It demands precise shot making, featuring desert style scrub bunkers, rocky outcrops, and elevated tees that provide dramatic views. It’s a course that rewards intelligent play and confident ball striking. Complementing this is the O’Connor Jnr. Course, designed by the late, great Christy O’Connor Jnr. This course is known for its beautiful flow through a lush valley, incorporating mature palm trees, orange groves, and numerous water features. While often considered more forgiving off the tee, its well guarded greens and challenging “Amen Corner” section ensure a rewarding test for all skill levels.
Portugal’s Unique Night Golf
Amendoeira offers a fantastic, practical feature unique in Portugal, the fully floodlit 9 hole Academy Course. This course is designed to be enjoyed by all, perfect for beginners, or simply for players who want to sharpen their short game. Crucially, it provides the exceptional option of night golf, allowing you to extend your play well into the evening. For travelers visiting during the hotter summer months, this night golf amenity is a huge bonus, allowing you to easily squeeze in a round after sunset when the air is cool and comfortable. The resort also features a high end Golf Academy with TrackMan technology and professional instruction for focused game improvement.

Spacious Luxury and Self Catering
Accommodation at Amendoeira is designed for groups and long stays, featuring modern, spacious, and elegantly furnished apartments and villas. The apartments offer two bedrooms with fully equipped kitchens and generous living areas, perfect for a foursome. For larger groups, the villas are superb, with options for three, four, or five bedrooms, many of which include the ultimate luxury of a private swimming pool. While the resort offers self-catering independence, the central Clubhouse provides excellent dining options for both breakfast and lunch, ensuring you have easy access to meals before and after your round.
Full Sports and Leisure Facilities
Beyond the golf courses, Amendoeira is a comprehensive sports destination. The central Sports Club features world-class facilities, including six floodlit tennis courts, two padel courts, and FIFA-standard five-a-side football pitches. There is a fully equipped fitness center and a scenic jogging trail weaving through the property. The resort features two large outdoor swimming pools, ideal for lounging in the sun. Though the resort does not have its own full-service spa, it offers guests access and discounts to the luxurious spa facilities at the nearby Vila Vita Parc, ensuring your relaxation needs are met just a short drive away.
Best Value in the Central Algarve
The Algarve is known for its phenomenal year round climate, making it an excellent destination any time. However, the best time to visit Amendoeira for ideal golf weather and value is the shoulder season of late spring (March to June) and early autumn (September and October). This period offers beautiful, warm weather without the intense heat and higher rates of the mid summer rush. Many packages, especially those promoting unlimited golf, offer incredible value during these competitive times, making it easy to schedule multiple rounds across the Faldo, O’Connor, and Academy courses. The consistent sunshine of the Algarve is virtually guaranteed for your trip.
Your chance to play 36 holes of designer golf a day, including unique night golf, is waiting in the heart of the sunny Algarve. Amendoeira Golf Resort delivers unparalleled value and quality for your next group golf vacation.
