A round at Quinta do Lago’s Laranjal golf course is any golfers dream. Immaculately maintained, the championship course takes no prisoners with precision play demanded from would be victors. Add to this the sophisticated white leather, GPS enabled buggies with distance to pin stats and Laranjal’s as standard TaylorMade M2 rental set and you may, after completing your round, not want to leave.

Off the beaten track in comparison to sister North and South courses, Laranjal offers a quiet setting for leisurely play while enjoying some original features left over from the courses past as an orange grove.

Away from the rolling fairways and lush greens, Quinta do Lago boasts exceptional golf training facilities including the TaylorMade Performance Centre. Here visitors are offered access to the latest TaylorMade equipment alongside the innovative technology used by tour professionals to fine tune kit and technique.

Qunita do Lago’s retained accolade as ‘Europe’s Best Golf Venue’ at the 2016 World Golf Awards is well deserved, with a further 2017 nomination speaking volumes as to the consistent quality on offer at this resort.

Green fees start at €105 per player plus club rental and buggie hire, both well worth the extra fees for a full golf tech experience.
