Great golf trip

The Hotel Palacio Estoril has a nice historical feel if a little bit of faded glory. The staff are generally very helpful and friendly. The bar staff are pleasant but not very efficient. The common areas , the gym and spa etc are all good. The rooms are ok but could do with a an uplift and twin rooms have small single beds which cannot be pushed together. However overall it was good value and I would be happy to go back there.

Of the 3 courses, Penha Longa was my favourite but others preferred Oitavos. Estoril Golf Club was a bit scruffy and there are long distances between some holes so I would say a buggy is essential but Estoril had a nice bar and a traditional golf club feel

The transport you arranged for us was very efficient, punctual and friendly.

Overall it was a great success and we are likely to repeat at some point.

Very nice golfing trip

The thanks are for all the Portugalgolf.net team for another very nice golfing trip.

Golf Villa at Marinha Boutique Hotel, Quinta da Marinha was perfect, comfortable, large, clean and well equipped. Breakfast choice was excellent and ample. Staff throughout the hotel were very friendly.

Golf courses, Quinta da Marinha was easily the best of the 3 courses we played because of its overall condition (tee boxes, fairways and greens). The course was very busy on both days. Clubhouse staff were very welcoming. Minus point: The driving range is a considerable distance away from the 1st tee and a shuttle bus is needed.
Penha Longa Atlantico Golf course, a beautiful and challenging golf course (because of the wind). Beautiful views. The fairways were unfortunately quite wet and muddy in places, probaly due to the winter season. Tee boxes and greens were excellent. Very good driving range and practise facilities. Friendly staff throughout.
Estoril Golf Club, a very nice old course.Practise facilities were basic considering the age and stature of the club. Very friendly staff at reception.

Lovely week at Hotel Palacio

We had a lovely week at Hotel Palacio,  the weather was good except for one day and we enjoyed our stay.

Hotel Palacio continues to provide a high standard for its visitors.  We had our preferred room 130 and they gave us a table and chairs for our balcony. Room was clean and the housekeeping staff were excellent,  friendly and helpful. We know that the rooms have not been updated in all the years we have been visiting but we have no issue with this. Our included evening meal was excellent, beautifully prepared food and top marks to the chef. Service excellent. The breakfast also continues to be well organised with a great selection and high standard of fresh food.  We had a few drinks in the bar too that we enjoyed. 

It was lovely to see all the same staff at the Estoril Golf Club & Estoril Blue Course and they recognise us and give us a warm welcome. The course was wet in areas due to rain the week before so not at its best, but we know it´s due to the Winter season.

We had a great stay in lisbon

We had another great stay in lisbon area and really enjoied the new hotel, Aroeira Lisbon Hotel
We had a very warm welcome personally of the Manager. Also the rooms are very nice. Breakfast and also the Restaurant is great! We also liked the whole area and the option to walk to Restaurants in the evening. 

All three golf courses are in great shape and we liked all of them (Aroeira Pines Classic, Aroeira Challenge and Quinta do Peru). Really nice!

We were already starting the discussion for our next year stay and we might consider to stay again at Aroeira.

Thank you very much for the work you did on arranging the lessons and the accomodation.
We really enjoyed the lessons with Daniel Grimm, and the Vila Bicuda was absolutely perfect .

We really enjoyed the holidays in Estoril

We really enjoyed the too short holiday in Estoril.

 The Hotel Palacio is super nice, you can feel the history, it is modern, but also old fashioned. The room is super nice and convenient. The cleaning ladies are super polite and smiling. Concierge, reception and door keeper are really super and you feel welcome when you enter the hotel. The service in the bar is expensive, but the ambiente is cool. The connected SPA is extraordinary and their staff friendly and welcoming at the same time – super. The outdoor pool was open, but unfortunately a bit too cold for me.

The golf staff from Estoril Golf Club are very friendly, from the receptionist to the greenkeeper and if you get warm with the Caddy Master he do smile as well.
The only downside was the golf course was not in the top shape. I understand we are in the end of the winter season and sometimes can influence.

Our stay in Estoril was lovely!

Our stay in Estoril was lovely!

The Hotel Palácio Estoril is absolutely wonderful. Good location, close to restaurantes and many other interesting points. The breakfast is a five star breakfast, excellent. The other facilities are very good (bar, spa, pool etc). The service is great, like an old fashioned five star hotel. Example they turn the bed down at night and leave a chocolate! The ONLY complaint I have is the bathroom (a little small). The room itself is fine with a spectacular view.
However this did not spoil our stay as everything else was excellent!

The golf courses of Estoril (Estoril Golf Club and Estoril Blue Course): maintenance, layout, service, pleasure playing, clubhouse, etc;
The golf course was lovely to play, the clubhouse is a bit "old", but we just used the course so we enjoyed our golf. Sadly on the last day it rained.

Wonderful time as usual

We had a wonderful time as usual. The Hotel Palacio is unique, service fantastic and the care and attention we receive every year it is like being part of the Palacio family.

We enjoy the golf course (Estoril Golf Club), it is a true original club course. It could do with a little investment to manicure it a little more but it is a great test of golf with some wonderful holes. We have been visiting Estoril for many years and have played all the courses within 50 miles but are now happy to play Estoril every day it such a good test. The staff in the bar and facilities are good too.

We love some of the local restaurants. A particular favourite of ours is Braga in Monte Estoril which provides great service and food. Their Cataplana is truly magnificent.

Das Hotel Pine Cliffs echt super!

Das Hotel Pine Cliffs echt super! Frühstück sehr gut, Zimmer sauber, Service überragend!
Der Golfplatz am Hotel war auch sehr schön! Entspannend dort zu spielen.
Der „Millennium“ hat uns nicht so gefallen. Die beiden anderen Plätze (Laguna und Pinhal) waren gut.

Wonderful week in Cascais

We had a wonderful week in Cascais.
The Golf villa on the Onyria Resort was perfect accommodation to relax and we have experienced a 120% perfect Service from the Staff at the Hotel.
As well, we had wonderful rounds on a superb Golf course at Quinta da Marinha.
Thanks again for your effort to make this happen.
