Very unprofessional, we went to the pro shop to buy a few things since Portugal offers a tax free on purchases over certain amount we requested it. They gave us 100’s of excuses not to do it. The manager was extremely rude after they gave us the runaround & made us wait for almost 1 hour they told us that they didn’t have the time to do it & that they have to go to government website etc…and that would take lot more time.
Very disappointed on their service and the fact the people from all over the world visit this club, the pro shop should be more professional and equipped to provide the services when asked.

On a recent visit we played a number of courses in the area and further north. Oitavos was by far the best overall experience. The attention to detail and fantastic customer service provided by the very professional and friendly staff were a credit to the course.

Good course with tricky greens. They roll the greens after cutting them to exacerbate the breaks. Most greens break towards the sea. Decent sized landing areas on the fairways. Course in decent condition and on site driving range is available too prior to your round. What is not so good is a green fee of 164EUR. The course is not in that league. Maximum price should 100EUR. Don’t book online. Ring them and haggle a green fee that is sensible. They’re not busy.

Say the are ranked in the Top 100 Courses in the World, that is an exaggeration.
Course is like a nice municipal courses, but it does have nice views of the ocean.
Suggest you take a Buggy , hard to walk.
Ronaldo is building a home ( looks more like a Hotel 😀 ) next to the Course

I cannot understand this course is rated top 100 of the world, even this was a few years back. It is a nice course because of its location, but there is nothing else that stands out to me. We had a nice round, but the greens were horrible, and nobody told us upfront there just had been maintenance. if so, you should both inform visitors upfront and discount the rates. Green were really a lottery. Further maintenance was good, but again, I cannot see any justification of this being one of the best courses of the world. Practice area is ok, nothing special either, pro shop equipped well, no towels in the showers…… Lunch was good but expensive for what we were offered.

Oitavos Dunes is not a “Top 100” course, not even close. The facilities are tired and need an overhaul. Eg., range balls are a complete hodgepodge of old mismatched balls. The carts are older. The Course itself is on par with an average muni course in the U.S. The layout is good and very gettable.

Oitavos cource has ridiculous cancellation policy. We had trip to Portugal and we were able to cancel all other rounds except Oitavos. We had 8 tee times reserved and 7 of them we were able to cancel. So, not yet experience about the course itself.

Dear sir,
First of all, we deeply regret this overall situation. However, you knew our cancelation policy at the time of your reservation. As we are experiencing exceptional moments, the management of Oitavos Dunes has decided, however, that all reservations for this period would be returned in the form of a voucher in order to allow to benefit the service later on. Thank you.

They charge items on the hotel invoice that were not used, then write the invoice items in Portuguese to foreign visitors so it is very difficult to know if the invoice is correct. Lastly if you don’t notice it immediately, they refuse to rectify the mistake when asked to.
If possible, avoid this place and prefer honest places instead.

This Golf Does Not Deserve Its Ranking
Electric cart expensive rental, in very bad condition, and no umbrella door
Check-out panic and no starter
Course certainly well maintained but many holes that intersect along the entire length in return
Toilet and washbasin man and woman in very bad condition some out of use and smell ...

The golf course layout is very nice and challenging with very good greens and wind to challenge your shot making ability. The golf buggies were disgustingly dirty, couldn’t tell you when they were cleaned last. The tee boxes are in terrible condition. Divots everywhere, uneven tee areas , just not in good condition at all. The grounds around the club house have weeds growing everywhere and just appears to be very unkept. Very disappointing for a golf course with such a high rating. We also only saw the cart girl once during our entire round. For such a good layout the conditions were very disappointing. One would almost think the course and facilities were in financial trouble. 🙁😕

Hi, does anyone have the cost per person for this course please? (I know the buggies are 70 Euros, but aside form that?)
Many thanks
