About Millennium Golf Course
Arguably the best of the more recent designs, Millennium is very pretty with some great short holes. This golf course was added to the impressive portfolio at Vilamoura in 2000. It's a more open course than its neighbours but watch out on holes 3-7 where the fairways wind through trees. Millennium is made up of nine new holes and nine taken from the 27-hole layout at Laguna.
- Free shuttle to Vilamoura hotels
- Buggies
- Clubhouse - Restaurant
- Play alongside Vilamoura Old, Pinhal and Laguna
Our take
Arguably the prettiest of Vilamoura's newer courses, open and flat, with the tree-lined run from the 3rd to the 7th asking the only serious questions.
- Higher handicapsThe most open driving course at Vilamoura and a flat, gentle walk, so it flatters anyone whose long game wobbles. Score well early, because the fairways tighten through the trees from the 3rd to the 7th.
- Serious golfersWater turns up all over the place, so there is enough to think about, but low handicappers should come expecting to score, not to scrap. The short holes are the ones you remember afterwards.
- CouplesVery pretty golf with some lovely short holes, and with only about 50 metres of climb across the round it is one of the easiest walks in the Algarve. The free shuttle from the Vilamoura hotels means nobody needs the hire car.
Tell us who’s coming and how you like to play, and we’ll shape the right trip around you.
What you are actually facing
The walk. Flat, and an easy walk — 52 metres of climb over the round.
The wind. The wind is usually north-westerly, averaging 14 km/h, gusting to 38. It is the club selection that catches people out, not the yardage.
The water. Water is very much in play across this course. Bring a few more balls than you think you need.
The design. Martin Hawtree.
The holes that will cost you. The 5th, the 17th and the 3rd. The 5th is the one you will be talking about afterwards.

A big thank you again Simon for organising our latest trip, this time to Quinta Do Lago. Your recommendation to include Ombria was well worth it ,you might need a few spare balls but it is a great course in the making and worth a visit.…
