モンテ レイ ゴルフ & カントリー クラブ(Monte Rei Golf & Country Club)

포르투갈 원탑 골프장 마치 한국 아난티남해 혹은 기장 힐튼 느낌.. 돈값하는 럭셔리 리조트. 내 골프실력은 형편없었지만 아주 좋았다

Booked a year ago to play this course which was highly recommended. There was 8 of us all looking forward to playing one of the best courses in Portugal or so we thought! The company we booked through told me that the course would be fine by the time we were due to play after hearing the bad reports. My advice to anyone going to play this course is don't,cancel and play somewhere else.they don't have any water for the fairways which are terrible by the way even though we were told by the starter that you can prefer lies on fairway. They are still charging full price to play here which is a disgrace & the greens are just ok.so disappointed

Just returned from a golf trip, where 24 of us were looking forward to playing Monte Rei. Wow, what a layout but equally WOW, how disappointing was the condition. The fairways were bone dry and the greens, although watered were slow and average at best! 🤷‍♂️ They have suffered from last year’s drought and as this is still early season, conditions will only deteriorate over the summer. Such a shame as it’s a great venue but I’d certainly recommend going elsewhere and not paying the very high green fees.

Golfers, please be warned that the fairways are bone dry and require placing everywhere. No reduction in green fees to reflect this. Very disappointing.

Played a round of golf with my wife at 1.12pm April 22nd., both mid-handicappers.They don’t pair players with others and tee off at 12 min intervals. Therefore, a nice feeling of being unrushed and distracted. The welcome and attention given prior to play was excellent in a calming environment. The starter was very informative and courteous. We thankfully had a buggy as we recorded over 8 miles covered by a GPS watch. Not sure if a buggy is compulsory. The course design is very impressive as it meanders through the hills with each hole set apart from the others. There are a number of elevated tees and greens with penal, plentiful bunkers everywhere. Accuracy of shots is paramount and length less important. Miraculously, we lost only two balls in total between us ! Pace of play was good as we hardly saw other players and took around 4+ hours. The course condition is not good, fairways in particular being bare and hard in places, although I suspect it is improving from last year’s drought. Then, comes the cost, which is hefty, at well over Euro200. I enjoyed the experience but am not drawn back for another round.

On arriving at the reception we were greeted by a lady at the desk all official but very welcoming, we checked in and were taken to our 2 bed apar**ent, on opening the door we were astounded at the size and attention to detail, a very large sitting room, amply equipped kitchen and dining area and bedrooms with king sized comfy beds, plenty of hot water for showers and baths and a large outside garden space with tables, chairs and sun loungers. The food was buffet style breakfast but on one occasion it came from the kitchen as it was early in the season and limited visitors. The golf course was challenging with 12 minute tee times so you had the feel of millionaires golf as you barely saw other golfers. the resort is out of the way but a 25 minute taxi ride gets you to a small village along side a river with bars and restaurants

After looking at recent reviews on here I wasn't expecting much, but was very pleasantly surprised. The course is amazing and the fairways are coming back slowly from the hosepipe ban of last summer. Playing Pick and place wasnt an issue and onluy a few bare spots. The Villa was a great size for 4 people and all the staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful. Being what it si the drinks and food were on the pricier side but 10€ for an uber to town worked for us. I will definatly be back this time next year!!

Monte Rei offers a unique setting, nestled in an expansive landscape of soothing tranquillity. From the very first moment, I was treated with great hospitality. The service, whether it was the organisation around the driving range, breakfast or questions at Reception/Conciere, was exceptionally good. The tastefully furnished apar**ent left nothing to be desired in terms of comfort, and the view of hole 18 as the sun rose was a delight. The golf course offers a design that makes a golfer's heart beat faster. The 12-minute tee times give you the feeling that you can play your round all by yourself. There is no flight breathing down your neck to spoil your enjoyment. Even the neighbouring holes are rarely seen. The greens were in very good condition, but sometimes not playable without a handicap due to quite many bunkers ;) I will definitely come back!

Stunning venue, golf course immaculate and impressive customer service from arrival to departure. I have played golf three/four times there and never been disappointed, actually gets better. Often celeb spot, and worth the money for the experience. For the avid golfers you will experience tunnel vision golf, unlike 99% of golf courses each hole is independent to the rest of the course. Maybe a couple of points on the course where you can view another holes but not many. Impossible to cross fairways and you will probably not see another group on the course unless in front / behind you. Tees were putt-able, top tip avoid bunkers from the tee shot and you will enjoy your round.
