Description:
Millennium sits at the heart of Vilamoura's golf cluster, a short run from the marina and within easy reach of the resort's hotels. Opened in 2000, the course pairs a refurbished nine from the old Laguna layout with a newly built nine cut through umbrella pine woodland — a blend that gives the round two distinct characters rather than one.
The front nine, holes three to seven especially, plays tight and wooded, asking for accuracy off the tee where the pines close in. From there the course opens out, flatter and more exposed to the Algarve breeze, before water comes into play again on the closing holes. The par-3 6th is the hole most golfers remember: a lake guarding the left of the green, a deep bunker on the right, and not much margin for a loose shot. It's a course built for variety and for company — sociable enough for a mixed-ability fourball, sharp enough to punish carelessness on the closing stretch.
Facilities are shared with the neighbouring Laguna course, including a driving range, putting green, and a resident academy for anyone looking to sharpen up beforehand. The clubhouse restaurant and bar make an easy stop before or after the round, and a complimentary shuttle runs from a selection of Vilamoura hotels. For golfers splitting a week across the region's courses, Millennium is a relaxed, well-paced day out.
