Vilamoura is the name given to the area rather than any actual town. Picture the large tourist area that covers 2,000 hectares of land, with a variety of lush vegetation, some parts are covered in pine forests whilst others open recovered marshland. A holiday villa in Vilamoura is a great place to base yourself to discover the unspoilt Algarve.
Why not enjoy a horse ride on a long sandy beach beside the Atlantic Ocean? Or if you prefer you could enjoy your own private pool in your luxury Vilamoura holiday villa. Relax with friends, sharing the sea views and a cold drink in your own gardens or private roof terrace.
Golf: Millennium Golf Course
The original course 27 Holes has been extended by adding another 9 and now creates two distinctive courses. These new holes are part of the Millennium Course and flow amongst the parkland of pine tress that are often found on the coast in the Algarve. The course has a few very tricky situations except for possibly the the par-3 sixth with its lake on the left of the fairway waiting for erring balls, but this only make for an interesting game.
Laguna Golf Course
This 18 Hole course had been laid out over level ground provide with the exception of the eleventh and twelve that take the player around and over a lake. It has open fairways with very few trees to present difficulties for the players. However, there are many water hazards with strategically placed bunkers in open terrain this combined with the occasional strong wind make for an interesting game.
