About Amendoeira Golf Resort, Faldo Course
Style: Championship Parkland/Undulating Terrain | Length: 6,598 m | Par: 72
This Sir Nick Faldo course in Portugal is as stunning as it is demanding. Opened in 2008, it has quickly earned a reputation as one of the Algarve’s finest championship layouts. The course blends natural contours, rocky outcrops, and Mediterranean vegetation to deliver a test that rewards tactical play over pure power.
The front nine plays through rolling valleys with wide fairways and bold elevation changes, while the back nine climbs higher into the hills, offering sweeping views across the region.
Every hole presents a new challenge, from cleverly positioned bunkers to tiered greens that require both focus and finesse. Designed with the modern golfer in mind, this is a course that reflects Nick Faldo’s strategic approach to the game — demanding yet deeply rewarding.

The Amendoeira clubhouse is a spacious, contemporary retreat overlooking the course and the surrounding countryside. Inside, golfers will find a professional pro shop, stylish restaurant and bar with panoramic terrace seating, and modern locker and shower facilities.
