We will be playing 3 highly-regarded Algarve courses on our week, and are based at the Prime Energize Hotel, which enjoys a prime position just a short walk from the beach. The town offers an excellent range of restaurants and bars. The perfect place to relax after a day of playing golf.
5 rounds. 2 x Quinta do Vale, 2 x Castro Marim, 1 x Monte Rei Golf Course
27 holes, 5464 metres, Par 72
Castro Marim has three 9 hole segments, the Guadiana, the Atlantic, and the Grouse. Designed by Bristol-based Terry Murray around ten years ago, The Guadiana and Atlântico courses are the most mature of the three courses, with attractive pine trees lining the fairways. The courses are teeming with wildlife, especially partridge in the winter months.
18 holes, 6241 metres, Par 72
Designed by Seve Ballesteros Quinta do Vale offers an interesting and testing round of golf to players of all abilities. It features 6 par 3’s, 6 par 4’s and 6 par 5’s and combines several tough dogleg holes with strategically placed hazards that will challenge even the best of players.
18 holes, 6567 metres, Par 72
The Monte Rei Golf Club is set in a privileged position at the foothills of the Eastern Algarve. The golf offering at Monte Rei is unrivaled in the region. The breathtaking Jack Nicklaus Signature course together with highest levels of service make for an experience like no other. The course features an enjoyable series of eight par-4s, five par-3s and five par-5s in a brave and distinctive layout.
Ideally located in the Southeast of Algarve, and with close proximity to the Monde Gordo beach. This 4 – star hotel is new to Solos, and we are sure it will prove popular with our guests.

Golfing Schedule:
Golf Handicaps
This trip is for golfers with a handicap of 36 or lower for ladies and 28 or lower for gentlemen.
Please advise our Reservations team of your handicap at the time of booking, alternatively you can add this to the special requirements box on our booking page. If you have a certificate please ensure you take it with you on the trip, this enables the Tour Leader to assess everyone’s ability, so that rounds and competitions can be organised fairly.
If you are uncertain about these requirements please do not hesitate to contact us. We will be happy to advise you.
Golf Club Insurance
Clients will most probably find that their golf clubs are covered on their household insurance policy. Most policies cover a single item such as golf clubs for a period out of the country. However, clients should make very sure that they do have cover. If not, Solo’s Holidays insurance includes cover for golf clubs and bag.
Buggy, Trolley & Club Hire
Most golf clubs have these items available for hire, however this is not always the case, so clients would be advised to check with us beforehand if they have any specific requirements.
What to Wear:
Golf Shoes with Soft Spikes. Golf attire during the day, we suggest smart casual for the evenings.
Carriage of Clubs
We advise you to use a light golf bag when packing your clubs. We suggest you wrap a towel round the neck of the clubs to protect them and stop them rattling around whilst in transit. It is also important to then place the bag and clubs in an outer carrying bag, which can be purchased from any good golf shop.
Gratuities
We suggest a Group Collection to cover transfer drivers, and hotel staff of €20.00 per person. Your Tour Leader will collect this on your behalf and distribute it accordingly, thus relieving you of the burden of who, when and how much to tip. The tipping of housekeeping will be left to your individual discretion (a small amount left in your room on departure should cover this and would be much appreciated). As is customary, ‘the hat’ will be passed around for the driver and guide on all optional excursions. For any meals that are not included in your itinerary, or taxi fares, your Tour Leader can advise of an appropriate % to add on.
