About the Old Village

The magnificent architectural style of the Old Village is based on the classic 17th and 18th century town houses of Lisbon and Faro.  Surrounded by the fairways of the beautiful "Pinhal" Golf Course and its own picturesque gardens and walkways, the resort is ideally located only minutes from all Vilamoura's facilities.  The Old Village amenities include a supermarket, restaurant and bars, swimming pools and a childrens play area, all set in beautifully maintained gardens.

The layout of the Old Village has been built with safety in mind, the whole resort being pedestrianised and with a 24-hour security service for additional peace of mind.  But don't worry there are ample parking areas surrounding the Old Village, with direct walkways to the apartments.

Golf

Playing golf in Vilamoura may turn into a passion of a life-time.  In Vilamoura, it is hard to choose.  The five golf courses are all unique and appealing to players of all handicap levels.

Victoria Clube de Golfe (18-hole, par-72, 6,506 metres)

Arnold Palmer, one of the world's most illustrious golfers, designed the routing plan for this exciting new course, destined to become one of the most spectacular on European soil.

Laid out on a virtually flat terrain, it includes a series of mounds specially landscaped to emulate the outline of the inland hills on the horizon, a feature that provides the course with a sense of movement and harmony.  

The Victoria course measures 6,506 metres from the back tees, making it the longest in Portugal.  Each hole, however, has a set of five tees to make it suitable for all handicap levels.

Old Course (18-hole, par-73, 6,254 metres)

Designed by Frank Pennink and opened in 1969, this is one of Portugal's best known golf courses internationally, especially for the outstanding way the layout was moulded to the natural contouring of the terrain and integrated to the surroundings.  Recent upgrading and modernisation has brought the Old Course up to a new level of excellence, enhancing the image that made it famous.

All the holes have their own individual character, making each one truly memorable.  The first five holes are relatively straight forward, allowing players to gain confidence and build a good basis for a good score.  Holes 6, 7 and 8 however, bring one back to the reality of a course that demands complete concentration and precision shot-making.  To score well on the outward half, the short but extremely well defended par-4 ninth must be negotiated.

Players must draw on all their strategic and golfing abilities to avoid trees and bunkers.  On holes 10, 11 and 12 achieving length and accuracy off the tee is the real test.  The following trio of holes afford some respite before one faces the 16th, the best par-5 and last truly challenging hole.  The two closing holes give golfers a chance to score well, giving them back a pleasant memory to take back to the clubhouse.
