Monte Gordo

Just returned from a 5 day golf break to Tavira, Portugal on Nick's recommendation. It was absolutely lovely. Stayed at Maria Nova Lounge hotel which was a real gem. Close to the lovely cobbled centre of Tavira for some wonderful restaurants and Portuguese charm, and only 15 minutes transfer to the 2 golf courses we played, Benamor and Quinta da Ria. We played each twice, and they offered different challenges but both thoroughly enjoyable. The staff at the hotel and at the courses, and the locals in Tavira were are very welcoming and pleased to help. The local area offers more than just golf and we hope to explore it a bit more because we plan to go back.

Have been very impressed by you and your team. I plan to contact you about a golfing break later this year with my partner Sarah (a great golfer...unfortunately!). I also had a brilliant, hilarious conversation with your colleague Chris earlier this week. Give her my regards.

Just returned from 7 nights staying in the wonderful Maria Nova Lounge Hotel, Tavira, Portugal and playing 4 rounds of golf over the week. Everything that was arranged by golf escapes ran like clockwork, hotel is lovely, the transfers from airport/hotel/golf etc were absolutely spot on, always on time. The 2 golf courses we played were also very accommodating and both were in very good condition ( Quinta do vale & Castro Marim ) with excellent service in the clubhouse. The staff at the hotel were great and a lovely touch was leaving a bottle of sparkling wine in the bedroom for one of our party on their birthday which we hadn’t mentioned to any of the staff. First time we have used golf escapes but they will be our first point of contact now for future holidays, well done.

Fantastic Holiday. Golf Escapes did it again. A big thank you from 16 very happy Golfers. I will be contacting you later in the year for a 2020 trip .

As always this was brilliantly organised by your team. A good time was enjoyed by all of us with probably a little too much beer and wine. Golf and weather was great!

This is, I think, my 6th or 7th year of organising a golf trip and I have tried a few other companies...but none come even close to Golf Escapes for first class service, great advice and great prices. If I have ever had an issue, either before or during the trip, they have sorted it without fuss or delay. I once called them from the plane at the stand at Gatwick to tell them French ATC had just gone on strike and our departure was going to be delayed and we would miss our tee off time. Within 15 mins they had changed the tee off times and called me back to tell me not to worry (not easy when you had 20 people relying on you!). 10 mins later the pilot came on the tanoy to say we had clearance to go so I called GE back and they changed the slots back, no fuss, no drama. Top people. I won't go anywhere else.

Got everything, all printed and ready to go!! Thank you so much for looking after us again, it is fantastic the level of service you and your colleagues give us. Speak on our return for next year!!!

9 of us went to Cascais, hotel and courses (Estoril, Penha Longa, Oitavos Dunes and Belas) all decent/very good. That coast can be windy though! All arrangements by Golf Escapes worked very well including hire cars, which can be troublesome. Competitive price vs other well known golf tour companies.
