Vale da Pinta Golf Club, Algarve, Portugal

Vale da Pinta Golf Club is part of the Pestana group of golf course resorts (including Gramacho, Vale da Pinta, Silves & Beloura).
 
Set on beautiful, undulating country just inland from Carvoeiro and opened in 1992 Vale da Pinta is rightly respected not just for its playability and challenging layout but for outstanding levels of beauty and enjoyment.
 
The clever design (by the famous American golf course architect Ronald Fream) offers wide rolling fairways dotted with carob, fig, almond and olive trees (including one olive tree over 1200 years old!) plus strategically placed bunkers and ornamental lakes to create challenge within a beautiful environment.
 
Vale da Pinta has earned its place as one of the best designed courses in Europe.
 
The fairways are of Bermuda grass and the greens clad in Pen Cross Bent grass to provide top quality playing conditions year round.
 
The course is always maintained to a very high standard and the layout will challenge the best of golfers without penalising the higher handicap player.
 
The quality of Vale da Pinta is demonstrated by the fact it has been chosen to host the European Seniors Tour Qualifying Final on eight occasions.
 
Visitors are always welcome at Pestana group courses
