With the golfing season coming into full swing (pardon the pun) the thoughts of many are turning to a golfing winter in the sun. Thousands of visitors will be arriving in Vilamoura for the Portugal Masters Tournament and the Pro Am competition being played at the same time. October will be a very busy golfing month in the Algarve, with the 39 golf courses doing a roaring trade.
Having played golf in many countries, with people of different nationalities, colour, creeds and living standards; it has struck me time and again that nothing matters to a golfer except the game itself – you against the course. Money doesn’t come into the game at all; it’s all about your handicap!
However, owning property on a golf course is impressive, there’s no getting away from that. And to own a mansion on a golf course is the ultimate for many golfing aficionados. So this time, we’ve chosen a select few properties to suit the wealthy golfer! Enjoy!
Luxury villa in Vilamoura
In the heart of the “Vilamoura golfing country” and located on the Laguna golf course itself, is this magnificent luxury villa, on the market for €1.950,000. All the rooms are spacious, light and airy with a high quality finish.
On the ground floor leading from the entrance hall is a very large living room, separate dining room, modern, fully equipped, kitchen leading to a large al fresco dining terrace. There’s also a custom built office, laundry room and a bedroom with private facilities as well as an extra bathroom.
Upstairs there are four bedroom suites, each with large wardrobes and balconies. A basement with storage rooms and space for several cars completes this stunning villa.
Outside there is a mature garden in immaculate condition and an infinity pool with terraces for sunbathing.
Situated close to the centre of Vilamoura, with its superb yachting marina, casino, shopping centre; numerous restaurants, bars and cafes. Along with the tennis academy close by and readily available water sports, including deep sea fishing. This is an idyllic area for a sporting family.
Outstanding mansion in Quinta do Lago
This five bedroom luxurious mansion is situated along one of the immaculate fairways of the Quinta do Lago North golf course. Secluded, private and tranquil, this €5 million property takes full advantage of the sunshine in the Algarve with its fantastic facilities for outdoor living. A huge pebble swimming pool with Jacuzzi, a beautifully arranged and covered outdoor dining area and a large, manicured garden featuring many mature trees and shrubs, makes this a wonderful entertainment area. The terraces are large enough for sunbathing and further dining in the sunshine, and the built in BBQ makes everything perfect.
Inside the house is a great open plan kitchen, fully fitted, equipped and people friendly. There are spacious, beautifully decorated living areas with quality materials throughout. The basement has a media room, an office and an exercise room; a truly outstanding property.
Stunning villa on Quinta do Lago fairway
This stunning five bedroom villa is situated on the 5th fairway of the Quinta do Lago South golf course. The large, split level lounge and TV area leads to the pool terrace and garden through sliding patio doors. The formal dining room is adjacent to the very large, fully fitted kitchen, complete with a cooking island, which in turn has patio doors to the BBQ terrace. Next to the kitchen is the laundry/utility room that also has outside access. There are two bedrooms on this ground floor level; a twin bedroom with a separate toilet and ensuite bathroom and a double bedroom, also with ensuite and its own terrace leading to the swimming pool.
Upstairs is the master bedroom, a double bedroom and a twin bedroom, all ensuite and all with terraces that overlook the pool, garden and golf course. All the bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and the property benefits from solar power.
This gorgeous property is currently on the market for €4.5 million and definitely worth a viewing.
Exclusive mansion on San Lorenzo
A fabulous five bedroom mansion is situated on yet a different golf course in Quinta do Largo; this time it’s the San Lorenzo course on the fairway of the third hole. On sale for €4.400,000, it’s excellent value for property in the Golden Triangle.
This stunning, south facing villa with swimming pool, covered outdoor dining area and super terraces for sunbathing is ideal for a large family or entertaining friends.

The lower ground floor has a further family bedroom with 1 double bed and twin beds, en-suite bathroom (shower) and cloakroom. Another TV room and a laundry room with dryer and washing machine, completes the villa.
Villa within prestigious Gramacho complex
Now this beautifully appointed villa is not actually on a fairway of a golf course and this is reflected in the price of only €640,000. However, it is part of the prestigious Pestana golfing community of Gramacho, with two championship courses to choose from as well as the superb clubhouse and tennis courts. This is a gated community with 24 hours security.
The villa is set in a generous plot of 1387m2 with mature gardens and a private, heated swimming pool, terraces and a covered BBQ area for that all important al fresco dining.

A large and fully fitted kitchen with a dining area is just off the main dining room. Double glazed windows, heating and air conditioning make this a very comfortable dwelling all year round.
