Fantastic golf course. The best of 48 courses I have played in Portugal. Great design and great variation. Fast greens and difficult rough. Keep out of it. Often far to walk from green to next tee - a buggy is good. Some slow play and the Marshall does not push slow players. More ready golf, please. Great training facilities and helpful staff

West Cliffs is the absolute highlight Course with challenging fairways and curvy Greens.
Stunning views of the Atlantic coast guaranteed.
Take care o the wind, that blows your ball away.
Friendly staff at the reception and on the round.
Restaurant and Clubhouse with assorted Food and Drinks. Friendly staff, quick.
Would really rate 11 out of 10.
Per Pettersson2019-03-12
Very good
Mr William Thompson2019-03-09
Superb. Probably the best course in Portugal - every hole a signature. Take plenty of balls and hire a buggy- I walked 11kms!
Lau Tuxen2019-02-24
Magnificent course in top condition and with breathtaking views. High servicelevel.
Steve Horne2019-01-19
It was great. Weather was kind and the course and staff were perfect. I would highly recommend playing here
Alain Dewispelaere2018-11-27
Very challenging and beautiful course!
Graham Childs 2018-10-01
great clubhouse, beautiful course - not easy!
Claudia Juncker2018-09-27
This is easily one of the best golf courses I ever played (and I have played all over the world in many countries...) Fair, but challenging. Depending on the wind it can be very tough, but on a calm day, it is just beautiful. Highly recommended!!!
Henriette Both2018-09-23
Very nice golf course, but you should take a buggy.
Olaf Wilsdorf2018-09-17
Great Golfcourse, nice Clubhouse und friendly staff. My runner up after Monte Rei
Ton Opdam2018-09-04
Excellent course, but with narrow fairways and unforgiving rough, so very difficult.. Very nice staff. Very quiet in the course, so I had a splendid round.
Alan Thompson2018-08-21
Super golf course, very enjoyable to play in the excellent conditions we had - would be a bit tougher if the wind had been blowing!!
Nce set up with good practice facilities and clubhouse
Peter Wevers2018-08-16
What a wonderful course. Everything is perfect.
peter haywood2018-08-14
brilliant golf course, friendly staff, great facilities. highly recommended
Cimarelli 2018-07-03
Really good!!!
Greg Banbury2018-06-18
Excellent course and facilities. This was the best of the three courses we played (Royal Obidos, Bom Sucesso, West Cliffs). Would play again.
Vincent Rose 2018-05-18
Excellent course with tee boxes to suit all golfers. Considering only open about a year its looks very mature
Robert Wood2018-05-13
This has to be one of my favourite courses ever. Amazing setting, every hole is tough and it finishes with possibly the best final hole in golf. That said it is a heck of a walk, we took just over 5 hours without being held up
Peter Matthews2018-04-25
This was the most difficult course we played. To say it was difficult is an understatement. Anyone over an 18 handicap will find it too difficult, the narrow fairways and long carries are more than a challenge. The views are spectacular but as a group we all thought it was just to difficult which spoiled our experience. Goodness knows how many balls we lost!!
F. Notenboom2017-11-13
amazing course very challenging to play in a great environment. People are very friendly and helpful. Never played on a course like this. The course is just open for 5 months, for sure come back here and play more.
Malcolm Thomas2017-08-09
First time experience and not the last. Service both on and off the course was excellent and the greens were the best we played. Give the course a year to mature and it will be outstanding. A couple of holes were a bit odd, but overall a wonderful experience.
Oliver Burns2017-07-12
This course will be very good when it matures. However, they MUST produce a Course Guide / Strokesaver booklet. There are a LOT of blind shots, especially on the front nine. They moved too many of the Yellow (5700) tees forward to near the blue (5500) tees and that spoiled the first round, making it too easy. There were also no pin sheets, so it was difficult to judge the distances without a laser DMD.
There should be a golf bag drop off area when you arrive and caddymaster staff should then put golf bags on the buggies if you are using one. The course can be walked but the distances from greens to tees are long. The price of buggies is extortionate (€42.50). Teetimes.pt needs to negotiate a package price as there is for Royal Obidos and PDR.
Andrew Burns2019-04-04
Tough course - amazing
Patrik HELLE2019-04-03
excellent golf course, unfortunatelly veeeeery slow playing pace (5h 15m).
Ling Wai Hong2019-04-01
We enjoyed the course the most. Marshall was very rigid in keeping the pace as it was very busy that day.
Soren Stougaard2019-03-31
Dont mis this golfcourse, superior !
Urs luther2019-03-30
Very inteesting corse in pristine condition
Stromgly booked - slow play
Nevertheless a must to play
Brent2019-03-28
Great course with very friendly staff. Highly recommended!
Brent2019-03-25
Awe inspiring! What an exoerience!
Billy O’Sullivan2019-03-18
Fantastic golf course, very challenging in every way.
Simon Kaye2019-01-03
Excellent
Schrepfer Juergen2018-12-11
Beautiful landscape. Challenging course. Take some extra balls with you,
if you miss the fairway you might not find your ball in the dunes.
Siobhan Patterson2018-10-21
Excellent course, a tough test,
Gilles Herbst2018-10-19
The round was great.
Maike Blum2018-10-14
Best Course ever!
Knut Schroeder2018-10-13
New course. Need more time to complete details on the course.
Information missing about minimum distance for tee of on various holes.
Enrico Chiocci2018-09-27
Very Perfect and cheap Service.......Raccomanded
Fredrik Elwing2018-09-18
Played the course for the second time, scenery is at times spectacular! Course experience remains a bit mixed, its a tough course to walk, 10,5km in very hilly terrain. Some of the holes are bordering on being a bit unfair when even good shots sometimes get penalised. On the day, the fairways were not mowed, a bit soft and yielded no roll, greens were very slow. Overall, the course would probably benefit from a bit more maintenance. Its the type of course thats interesting to play every once in a while but I wouldn't want to have it as my home course.
jacques sleven2018-06-24
Maybe too difficult for the higher hcp
Mr Dobbin2018-06-16
We teed off in the fog at .8.40 I’d call it unplayable
No idea where we were going
I’m sure it’s a cracker on a clear day
Couldn’t see 50 m in front
A little better back 9
Overall staff not as welcoming as Royal Obidos or the offering
Hard to believe climate can be so different only 90 minutes from Lisbon
Not a great golf day
I’ll hope algarve will be better
Robin Edwards2018-06-14
I was very happy with your service in booking for me not only West Cliffs, but Praia Del Rey & Royal Obidos.
Richard Dentith2018-06-13
A really interesting and beautiful course in an amazing setting. Weather wasn't too good so detracted slightly from the experience
Eric de Bruin2018-06-11
Difficult golf course, very challenging. One of the best courses we ever played in Portugal.
cox2018-06-07
The house in Praia d el Rey was very roomy, tastefully decorated, clean. The location in the resort was top .We recommend it .
Alex Bedford2018-06-05
Play was too slow. Marshals did not do enough to sort problem. No drinks trolley.
Claude H Lalonde2018-06-02
One of the best golf courses I’ve played.
Francois Guerin2018-06-01
beau et très exigeant parcours avec certains point de vue envoutant....que du bonheur
David Rundle2018-05-25
West Cliffs is super golf course but quite unforgiving if not on your game. Very scenic with the ocean a backdrop to many of the holes.
Tony Orre2018-05-21
Very windy day, narrow fairways made the course a bit too difficult.
Pat Lavelle2018-05-18
Beautiful course greens needed a shave but all and all a great challenge slow play was an issue five and a half hours to play. Staff were very helpful and friendly the bottles of water was a nice touch.
Malcolm Thomas2018-05-18
Friendly welcome.
Course in good condition and we’ll presented. However, far too much sand in the bunkers which meant the balls were always plugging in them if the ball came in from a height. Greens in very good condition but were on the slow side - this was due to the fact that they needed a cut!!
Just under 5 hours for the round which is very slow indeed. No coursed Marshall on the back 9 holes which was disappointing. Far too many poor golfers playing a tough course.
Andy Goodwin2018-05-12
Played here for the first time so had 2 rounds during our trip. Course was stunning. On first day play was very slow - over 5 hours to get round. On the second time our tee time was delayed 30 mins due to course maintenance which was odd! A drinks / snacks buggy would be good. Otherwise fantastic but challenging course
Peter Heinecke2018-05-08
Great! West Cliffs is most fantastic, it will be one of the best Links courses I ever played when it is finished.
H.Seubring-Vierveijzer2018-05-07
Nice looking course, with a lot of wild flowers..
The only reason the course isn’t easy is because of the long rough after the t-box and the green hardly to read for average player.
Mr Mia 2018-05-07
Unforgiving course but spectacular. Same comments as above Praia Del Rey.
simon davis2018-05-03
Very tuff test of golf
Mr Matthew Cohen2018-04-27
Amazingly sculpted course out of dunes topography.
Stunning views from 5th hole onwards.
Incredibly penal if you're offline off the tee, as if you miss the fairway and first cut as.i rough, you're in desert like sandy transition with bushes, plants, footprints, tyre tracks, etc.. Easy to lose a ball or have an unplayable.
Some greens very severe with front to back slopes and tiers, and being firm, unless you strike perfectly, will not hold. With dramatic run offs, deep bunkers, transition or water around most greens, you need to make sure you miss in the right place.....or else.
Wonderful experienceoberall, but don't play medal, you'll take all day!
Fabulous clubhouse and excellent food and service.
rolof regouin2018-04-09
still exceptional and stunning........absolutely beautiful.........till they will start building houses and apartments....
Vincent Scholten2018-04-07
Very poor route navigation signs, even for experienced traveller hard to find. Beautiful golf course however. Kitchen closes already at 7 pm ...
Véronique Gantoy2018-04-01
Golf superbe. A découvrir absolument.
Patrick Hart2018-04-01
Fantastic course. Greens were amazing and the course is a real challenge. Lots of blind shots and the wind adds to the difficulty, a real test to golfers of any ability.
Stephen Evans2018-03-21
Friendly and efficient
Jussi Kotkanen2018-03-19
Excellent course and service
Mr Whiteley2018-02-27
The staff are excellent both at golf reception and starters. The course is still settling down with buggy paths just sandy tracks, but the greens, surrounds and fairways play well for a 9 month old course.
Simon Kaye2018-02-08
Excellent course, spoiled by group of Italian golfers ahead who failed to rake bunkers rendering many unplayable.
The problem was reported to the marshall at the end of the 1st hole, but no action was taken allowing the problem to be repeated throughout the course.
We complained to the individuals concerned on the 17th tee. They were apologetic.
This could have been resolved by the marshall
Max Wenzel2018-02-06
Really good golf course and in excellent condition.
Fredrik Elwing2017-11-29
We enjoyed a nice albeit quite windy day out at West Cliffs with a fair amount of sunshine and some stunning scenery.
The course itself we also enjoyed however it was certainly a challenge in very blustery conditions, we enjoyed most aspects of the course however, given that the fairways are quite narrow in places, coupled with the wind, results in many shots missing the fairway.......BALLS ARE VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND OFF THE FAIRWAYS, THIS WILL SLOW DOWN PLAY TO PAINFUL 5-6 HOUR ROUNDS, WE FEAR, WHEN THE COURSE GETS BUSY! ALSO, IF THE GREENS GET MUCH QUICKER THAN THEY WERE TODAY, WHEN THEY WERE QUITE SLOW, THEY WILL BECOME VERY DIFFICULT TO MASTER GIVEN THE NARROW SHAPE AND UNDULATING SHAPE OF MOST OF THEM!
Inacio Cunha2017-11-28
Very difficult golf course, beautiful views. Greens incredibly fast.
Distance between Greens and Tee boxes too far, defenitely a cart course too long to walk.
michael katzler2017-11-21
Good looking course but too difficult to enjoy. I play off 10 handicap and the course although not too long is just too hard for my standard far prefer golf at Praia or Óbidos
Nick Ring2017-11-14
Excellent course in very good condition with great clubhouse & facilities. Very difficult even off yellow tees so waiting every hole & took over 5hrs.
Alistair Todd2017-11-11
Wonderful golf course and great customer service from the starter and Claudia on reception
GRAHAME LAMB2017-11-08
Stunning golf course, it gets better every time I play it
John Whiteley2017-11-02
The course is starting to come together and is certainly better for playing . The greens are are true test with many subtle insulation. The staff are friendly and helpful especially Claudia on golf reception. My only criticism would be the bunkers which had lots of soft sand leading to plugged balls in bunkers faces and lack of courtesy by players not raking them.
A tough but fair challenge.
Mickey Phillips2017-10-29
Also difficult in places, but a very beautiful course.
Elizabeth Fiatarone2017-10-24
Fabulous golf course- interesting fairways and excellent greens. Really enjoyed the layout of this course a fantastic design
Richard Monkhouse2017-10-16
Excellent! Thank you.
Jim ward2017-10-05
Exceptional
Padraic Delaney2017-09-28
West Cliffs was incredible, some of the views and the whole course layout was just impeccable. I can see why it has been rated 25th in Europe this year.
Cheryl Myles2017-09-23
Unfortunately we played this course in thick mist. So can't really tell you much about it. Where our balls landed seemed in good condition and so were the greens. Such a shame because we anticipated some great views. Quite tough, but not sure the weather helped.
Mr. Grant Prior2017-09-16
Very impressive
David Badrick2017-08-29
Shame about the fog!!
michiel de heer2017-08-03
Difficult and tight. Not always fair. Great clubhouse. Close to the sea so quite some days with mist
