This fine golf course – in a former orange grove – was voted the best Algarve golf course in 2011. The course seems like it has been there for many years and fully deserves its recent awards making it a fine choice for your golf holiday in Portugal.
Laranjal, originally an orange grove, is today a beautiful and totally different golf experience. It is a sanctuary for those seeking the finest in golf and personalized service. Its narrow fairways and well defined greens require concentration and accuracy to navigate this testing course laid out on a rolling and distinctive terrain.
It is a par 72, 6,480 meters, with five par 5’s, eight par 4’s and five par 3’s set amongst umbrella pines, cork-oaks and orange trees with a natural water course and 5 beautiful lakes.
Penn A4 was selected for the greens to help guarantee good putting surfaces all year round and the fairways are sown with Bermuda.
“It will be a surprise for a lot of people… it provokes a series of emotions from the first hole to the last. It is about the game and the strategy as well as the aesthetics. Nobody will be indifferent to it” – Architect Santana da Silva.
