Palmeira Nature Lodge

golf in Tavira — between two courses

rest after a day of golf

Play one course in the morning, the other in the afternoon, and come back to a pool in the avocado orchard. We sit exactly halfway — no resort, no buffet, no rush.

the place to rest between rounds

Six houses around a courtyard, an avocado orchard, a pool and the sea in the distance. Golf is a few minutes away on either side; here there is only shade and quiet.

We are not a golf hotel and we have no course of our own. What we have is the location: right between two courses, away from the coastal traffic, and a locked room to store your bags.

Quinta da Ria

Open fairways with views over the ria and the sea. Good for the first round of your stay, early in the morning, before the wind picks up.

Benamor

A course among pine trees and orange groves, more sheltered and more technical. It suits an afternoon round, or the last day before your flight.

The other Sotavento courses are less than 40 minutes away. Faro is 30 — land in the morning and play in the afternoon.
