Golf Facilities and Nearby Courses
We recommend the Dona Filipa Hotel as a base for brilliant golf. The resort’s location gives immediate access to some legendary courses.
Vale do Lobo Royal Course
This iconic course offers a challenging and scenic golf game. With cliff-top holes and stunning ocean views, the Royal Course is a must-play for any serious golfer.
Vale do Lobo Ocean Course
Another remarkable course (designed by Sir Henry Cotton) featuring Atlantic panoramas, the Ocean Course has unique challenges with its undulating fairways and strategic bunker placements.
San Lorenzo Golf Course
Located 10 minutes away from the Dona Filipa Hotel, and owned by the hotel’s parent company, the San Lorenzo Golf Course is consistently ranked as one of Europe’s top golf destinations. Designed by Joseph Lee and Rocky Roquemore, this championship course offers an incredible journey through the Algarve’s stunning natural landscape.
We strongly recommend pre-booking tee times, as San Lorenzo’s popularity means availability can be limited during peak seasons.
