    Shockingly poor condition

    I’m not sure where the previous reviewer was playing but it certainly wasn’t the San Lorenzo I played. Some of the so called ‘lesser’ courses have upped their game in the last few years but San Lorenzo appears to live in a time warp. Thankfully...More

    Best golf course in the area

    No need for a long review as this is simply the best course in the area. Memorable holes aplenty and a stunning location. When you visit the area and play golf make sure you play here if nowhere else. You will never forget it.

    It's included if you stay at the Dona Filipe but circa 140 Euros if you just pitch up to the golf course.
