Arrival at the course was a clue on what was to come, temporary portakabin as the checkin and pro shop… Course is very rough around the edges, cart paths are horrendous!! BUT the course is excellent!! Great layout and location, some really interesting holes, personal favourites were a stretch on the...

I really enjoyed the layout and the scenery on offer with San Lorenzo, having seen it from above when coming in to land at the airport.

The holes that border the ocean are simply breathtaking and also require a degree of accuracy that was perhaps beyond my normal game!! The condition wasn't anywhere near the price point of this course, perhaps looking a little shabby in places. Definitely recommend playing it at least once in your l...

Been golfing in the Algarve for 20 years and never played San Lorenzo, so I was genuinely excited to get there in spite of hearing about the sad loss of the club house due to fire.the layout is phenomenal, the condition was poor. Sodden fairways (which I can accept in a way as they have struggled wi...

.. below expectations I'll break down the review into 2 sections - Non Golf/Golf. Non Golf Much has been reported about how good of a course San Lorenzo is, so I was keen to tee off upon a recent visit to Portugal. Tee time was easy to reserve staying at Dona Flipia as I think they have preferential...

Not really worth 200 euros to ride.

Has some pretty holes by the water. Some of the greens were punched, but even the ones that weren't had patches as did the fairways. Many of the cart paths have extremely uneven cobblestones that stick straight up and are dangerous. For 55 euros for a cart (buggy), it should really have GPS like the...

The course design is very good and this is serious test of golf.

Greens were excellent but bunkers were very inconsistent with some lacking sand altogether. The cart paths need serious attention they are real bone shakers.KieranHolden down by the estuary are definitely the most memorable, it would certainly help if they had GPS garages on the buggies as they do i...

San Lorenzo is a masterpiece and some of the holes are exceptional in their risk reward design.

The way the greens and fairways are kept are a treat and the landscape next to the marshy beach in parts does wonders. It is a gem in the Algarve and one of Europe's best lay outs. It was a pleasure to play the course.

This course is beautiful, we teed off very early as the sun was still bursting through the foggy morning, the dew on the greens still making them appear white from afar.

Just such great fun, the front nine hugs the estuary adding a great challenge with water hazards on many of the holes. Possibly the most memorable of the 6 courses played this trip only slight disappointment is the level of plane traffic that you get but that would not stop me returning.

San Lorenzo… I guess I am torn!

I want to write a review based on holes, 6,7,8,17 and 18, for if I did I’d be describing a course of amazement that one can only dream of playing. These holes where built by god in which beauty and nature come hand in hand to form some wonderful views. Alas in forming a rating I also need to conside...

San Lorenzo was one of the best courses in Europe.

Beautiful setting; magical holes to test every level of golfer; traditional clubhouse and several holes you dream about again and again. But, alas, it together with its sister course (Pinherious Altos, have been lost. The Tees were awful; the Greens had the snake rough grass starting to encroach; th...
