    〝We can't speak highly enough〞

    Just returned from two really enjoyable weeks in Islantilla. Though the hotel has been taken over by Hilton, the staff are all retained and nothing is too much trouble. Can't fault the facilities, the food, the clubhouse, and the three courses are a joy, (extra balls for hole 2 on the blue course). The whole holiday went so smoothly and we can't speak highly enough of the friendly help and excellent communications from Golf Escapes with all aspects of the holiday. Wouldn't bother to book with anyone else.

    〝We had a thoroughly enjoyable holiday〞

    We had a thoroughly enjoyable holiday, the resort, hotel and golf courses were fabulous (as was the weather). A great location which suited us all, the hotel was clean and the staff most welcoming and helpful. The food is great and lots of choices and as much as you like. The golf courses were challenging in their own way but in good condition and we would be happy to play both North and South again. All in all a great holiday and thank you and your team for arranging the trip for us.

    〝A Really Good Experience〞

    They organised a bespoke trip for us. We didn't know the area but we enjoyed an excellent 4* hotel in a super, up market resort and played 3 brilliant golf courses. Transfers to and from the airport and to the courses was organised by them and worked beautifully. A really good experience.

    〝Usual excellent service from Golf Escapes〞

    Usual excellent service from Golf Escapes in arranging our trip to Belek. Golf courses at Sueno and Cullinan were excellent. We have been to Belek for over 10 years at the the end of May / early June but the weather this year was exceptionally hot touching 40c! However we don't hold GE responsible for this!!

    For this, you either want to be heading to Monte Rei Resort in the east Algarve or Praia D’el Rey resort which is north of Lisbon.

    The Algarve is where the majority of Portugal’s golf courses are located, with a diverse range of over 30 courses to choose from.

    Lisbon is also a fantastic destination for golf in Portugal. Dunas Comporta is the most recent addition and has been voted best new course in Europe.

    May/June and September/October are the busiest months of the year when it comes to golf getaways. However, across Portugal the weather remains mild even during their winter season so these trips can be enjoyed all year round.

    Our entry level 3-night, 2-round packages start from £185 and can range up to our luxury 5* resort experiences.

    For a traditional Portuguese experience, the Palacio Estoril in Lisbon is an excellent option with golf on-site.

    If you are after a budget-friendly experience, Montado Hotel & Golf Resort in south Lisbon or Morgado Golf & Country Club in the Algarve are both superb choices. For those who are looking for an enhanced experience, you might like to opt for the semi all-inclusive package at Morgado.

    If luxury is what you are after, then the Tivoli Vilamoura Marina is a great option. It is located on the Vilamoura Marina in the Algarve. The marina is a vibrant place with plenty of bars and restaurants all within walking distance of the hotel.
