Pestana Vila Sol Golf Course Review

The Pestana Vila Sol golf course, is one of six golf courses in Vilamoura. Designed by Donald Steel and opened in 1991, offers tight fairways and enough testing holes to challenge even the most experienced golfer while remaining accessible to higher handicappers.

Vila Sol was extended in 2000, with Steel adding a further 9 holes called the Prestige, resulting in 27 holes to play. There are, therefore, 3 loops in total. The Prime Loop, the Challenge Loop and the Prestige Loop. Each has its own character and unique set of challenges.

Pestana Villa Sol hosted the Portuguese Open in 1991 and 1992, indicating the course’s quality and the tests that face any golfer that decides to take it on.

When designing the course, Steel opted to incorporate the landscape’s natural features over excessive manipulation of the terrain. As a result, you can expect plenty of cork, umbrella pine and fig trees adorning the fairways. Golfers should opt for accuracy over distance when playing their tee shots.

The greens at Pestana Vila Sol are fast and true, so you’ll want to ensure that you’ve had a few practice putts before you make your way out onto the course. A particular highlight would be the 7th, a tricky par-3 hole with a long, sloping green. You’ll want an accurate tee shot to stand any chance of a par.

Finally, there is plenty of water to be found at Vila Sol. Like it or loathe it, it represents a real risk-reward dilemma on a few holes for the average golfer. Get it right, and you’re Seve Ballesteros; get it wrong, and you’ll end up dropping a shot.

When to Get the Best Deals

Pestana Vila Sol offers twilight rates after 15:30 for just €40 per round and this represents the best deal for playing the course.. Make sure there is enough daylight to complete your round, as nobody wants to race against a sunset to finish a full 18 holes.

The cheapest times to play Vila Sol are December, January, June, July and August, but beware of high accommodation and flight prices during the summer holidays. The weather is still pleasant enough in early December and represents an excellent time to play golf here.
