Statistics
Monte Rei North Course
Monte Rei Golf Course sits in the foothills of the Serra do Caldeirão mountains, approximately 40 minutes East of Faro Airport. The A22 motorway provides easy access to this peaceful location.
Playing at Monte Rei is a unique experience with undulating fairways, water hazards and many bunkers. The course seamlessly blends heathland scrub with manicured fairways and captivating dogleg holes, providing golfers with a varied and challenging round. The overall design allows players to appreciate the natural beauty of the landscape while navigating a meticulously maintained course.
The 15th hole at Monte Rei stands out as the most challenging, presenting golfers with a par 4, stroke index 1. At 378 meters, precision is crucial as the drive should aim for the fairway bunker on the left, avoiding the stream on the right. Anything right could lead to a challenging pitch shot over water which protects the small green.
While pricing at Monte Rei Golf Course is at the higher end, it mirrors the exceptional golfing experience offered. However, there are potential discounts available through package deals, and combining golf with accommodation may present more affordable rates, ensuring golf enthusiasts can fully enjoy this premium course.
