Santo António Golf Course

Santo António Golf Course sits at the centre of the Santo António resort at Vale do Poço, near Budens, in the quieter western part of the Algarve. The resort lies next to the village of Salema and presents itself as a peaceful base surrounded by nature, built around golf holidays and relaxed leisure breaks.

Golf and resort facilities

The course is the resort's main draw, and a golf shop is on site. Beyond the fairways, the resort has a pool, spa, gym and restaurant, along with a range of holiday activities and wellness options, so non-golfers in a group also have plenty to do.

Staying on site

Golfers who want to stay close to the course can book one of the traditional Algarve-style villas in the resort's Golf Village. These have two or three bedrooms, a living room, a fully equipped kitchen and outdoor space such as private balconies or patios, plus rooftop terraces looking out over the surrounding greenery. The pool, spa, gym, restaurant and golf shop are a short walk away.

The same group also runs The View, a set of two- and three-bedroom apartments on the cliffs above Salema, with sea views and sunny terraces. It suits visitors who want to pair a round of golf with time near the beach.

Good to know

The resort is a good fit for golfers looking for a calm setting away from the busier central Algarve, and for families or mixed groups who want golf, wellness and activities in one place. Bookings and enquiries can be made by phone or through the resort's website.
