Vilamoura Laguna Golf Course
Course information & details
Description:
Laguna is Joseph Lee's design for Vilamoura, opened in 1990 on reclaimed marshland as part of the original 27-hole Vilamoura III complex. When the Millennium course was carved out of that same site in 2000, Laguna settled into the 18 holes it plays today, laid out over low-lying coastal ground in the heart of the resort.
It's the odd one out among Vilamoura's courses: few trees, open ground, and a links feel across several holes. Par 72, 6,121 metres from the white tees, with lakes shaping play on eleven of them; those same lakes double as a habitat for otters, terrapins and migrating birds, and sit close to the Vilamoura Environment Nature Park. Add 79 bunkers and a wind that rarely lets up on this exposed site, and accuracy matters more than length. The 9th is the signature hole.
The clubhouse is shared with the neighbouring Millennium course, and the resort adds a driving range, academy, restaurant and snack bar, locker room and pro shop. Book a round at the Vilamoura course built to play differently from the rest.
