About Pinhal Vilamoura
Style: Parkland with Pine Forest and Ocean Views | Length: 6,353m | Par: 72
Designed by Frank Pennink and later refined by Robert Trent Jones Sr., Pinhal Vilamoura opened in 1976 and remains a favourite among visiting golfers. The course winds through umbrella pines and rolling fairways, creating a layout that’s both strategic and visually stunning.
Precision is rewarded throughout the round, with narrow landing areas and well-guarded greens demanding accuracy from tee to pin. The back nine opens up slightly, offering elevated tee boxes and breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean. True to Trent Jones’s signature style, players are challenged to think their way around the course, balancing risk and reward at every turn.
Clubhouse and Amenities
The Pinhal clubhouse provides a comfortable and welcoming space to relax before or after your round. Facilities include a professional pro shop, modern locker rooms, and a restaurant and bar with a terrace overlooking the 9th and 18th greens — the perfect spot to enjoy post-round refreshments in the Algarve sun.
Practice facilities include a driving range, putting green, and short-game area, all maintained to the same high standards as the course itself.
For a stylish and central stay, the Vila Galé Marina Hotel offers an excellent base just minutes from Pinhal Vilamoura and the bustling town of Vilamoura.
