About this development

Springs introduces a quieter side of Vilamoura, shaped around open views, natural light and the feeling of space. The development brings together 78 homes in a setting designed for families, golf buyers and second-home owners who want room to breathe without losing access to Vilamoura’s established lifestyle infrastructure.

The homes are arranged as cluster houses and row houses, with spacious living areas, fully equipped kitchens, outdoor patios, bedrooms and master suites. It is a development with a residential feel, but with resort facilities close at hand, giving owners a practical base for longer stays, holidays or rental-led ownership routes where appropriate.

Daily life centres on the Country Club, with restaurant and bar, private dining, gym and fitness centre, outdoor pool, spa, sauna, Turkish bath, tennis court, Kids Club, playground and Lazy River. Springs also operates as a Collective Self-Consumption Solar Community, using photovoltaic panels for self-consumption and shared excess energy across the community.

The Els Club 18 holesPar 72Parkland

Ernie Els championship golf in Vilamoura

The Els Club Vilamoura is an 18-hole, par-72 championship course created by Ernie Els from the former Victoria Course. The redesign retains the site’s broad scale and prominent water while reshaping the strategy around generous-looking landing areas, angled approaches and hazards that become more demanding from the back tees. Its identity matters in Vilamoura: this is not a new name for a course still operating as Victoria, but a private-club redevelopment of the layout that previously hosted the Portugal Masters. Practice provision includes range and short-game areas, and buggies use GPS. Access is materially different from the other Vilamoura Golf courses: the club is membership-led, with limited guest play offered through specified stay-and-play arrangements at the adjacent Victoria Golf Resort & Spa. Property buyers should therefore verify eligibility and booking terms directly rather than assume proximity or ownership provides access.

Laguna Golf Course 18 holesPar 72Parkland

Open fairways and water in Vilamoura

Laguna is an 18-hole, par-72 course in Vilamoura, laid out by American architect Joseph Lee and opened in 1990. Its low-lying, relatively exposed ground creates a more open, links-influenced round than the pine-lined parkland courses nearby. Water is a recurring strategic factor, while numerous bunkers and the likelihood of wind place a premium on controlling direction and trajectory rather than relying only on length. The sparse tree cover also makes its playing character visually distinct within the Vilamoura collection. Practice facilities include a driving range, putting green and short-game area, with equipment hire available. For buyers comparing local golf access, Laguna offers a flatter, water-led alternative to the mature woodland corridors of the Old Course and Millennium; tee-time or membership arrangements should be checked separately.

The Old Course 18 holesPar 73Parkland

Frank Pennink's 1969 Vilamoura classic

The Old Course is Vilamoura’s original golf layout, designed by Frank Pennink and opened in 1969. The 18-hole, par-73 course follows gently rolling ground through mature umbrella pines, giving it a more enclosed and traditional parkland character than the open, water-dominated Laguna. Tree-lined doglegs, changes of elevation and protected greens make position from the tee important; an errant drive can leave a blocked approach even when the ball remains in play. Its age is part of the appeal, as established vegetation and routing create a sense of separation rarely found on newer resort courses. The clubhouse and practice offering have been modernised, including a TrackMan-equipped driving range, while the course retains its historic identity. International buyers should confirm current visitor or membership arrangements independently, as living nearby does not itself establish playing privileges.
View course
Millennium Golf Course 18 holesPar 72Parkland

Tree-lined modern golf in Vilamoura

Millennium is an 18-hole, par-72 Vilamoura course created by Martin Hawtree and opened in 2000. Its routing combines holes inherited from the former 27-hole Laguna complex with nine added holes, producing two recognisably different environments within one round. Some stretches run through established umbrella pines, where accurate positioning and a clear line into the green matter; others are more open, with broader landing areas and water entering play. This contrast makes Millennium a useful middle ground in the local portfolio: less continuously exposed than Laguna, but generally less enclosed and traditional than the Old Course. The modern layout is approachable from suitable tees without removing strategic decisions around bunkers, trees and lakes. Buyers should treat proximity to the course separately from playing entitlement and confirm current visitor, membership and practice arrangements with the operator.

Pinhal Golf Course 18 holesPar 72Parkland

Pine-lined classic parkland in Vilamoura

Designed by Frank Pennink and later refined by Robert Trent Jones Sr., the Pinhal golf course in Vilamoura is one of the best places to play golf in Portugal. This classic parkland course is known for its pine-lined fairways and strategic design. The layout blends challenging elevation changes with scenic views, offering a round that appeals to golfers who appreciate both beauty and precision. Our golf complex in Portugal is ideal for those looking to enjoy a relaxed pace of play while still embracing the challenge of a mature, well-maintained course.

Quinta do Lago Laranjal Course 18 holesPar 72Parkland

Championship parkland in the Ludo Valley

Laranjal is an 18-hole, par-72 championship course in the Ludo Valley, about two kilometres east of Quinta do Lago. Opened in 2009 on a former orange grove, the 6,480-metre layout retains a distinctive mix of orange trees, cork oaks and umbrella pines. Five lakes, clearly defined greens and gently rolling fairways make accurate placement and distance control important, particularly when choosing angles into guarded putting surfaces. Its landscape feels more open and orchard-like than Quinta do Lago’s older pine-framed North and South courses, giving the resort’s three-course offering useful variety. Laranjal has its own clubhouse setting, while the wider resort operates golf practice and academy facilities. International property buyers should view the course as a nearby sporting amenity rather than assume that a home purchase includes membership, priority booking or playing rights; current access terms should be confirmed directly.

Quinta do Lago North Course 18 holesPar 72Parkland

Accuracy-led parkland by Beau Welling

The North Course is an 18-hole, par-72 parkland layout at Quinta do Lago. Its present form dates from a complete 2014 redesign by Beau Welling, working with former European Ryder Cup captain Paul McGinley. The project reshaped greens, tees, bunkers and drainage while retaining the course’s setting among pines and gently undulating ground. Doglegs and strategically placed hazards reward choosing the correct side of the fairway, so control and course management are often more useful than raw distance. Water is concentrated rather than constant, becoming especially relevant on selected holes. Compared with the South Course’s longer tournament history and Laranjal’s former-orange-grove landscape, the North offers a contemporary, accuracy-led interpretation of Algarve parkland golf. Resort practice and academy facilities support regular play, but nearby ownership should not be taken to include membership, tee-time priority or other golf privileges.
View course
Quinta do Lago South Course 18 holesPar 72Parkland

Quinta do Lago's flagship championship course

The South Course is Quinta do Lago’s established 18-hole, par-72 championship layout, designed by William Mitchell and opened in 1974. It runs through umbrella pines, lakes and wildflower areas beside the Ria Formosa Natural Park, with elevated tees and carefully placed bunkers asking players to select lines rather than simply chase distance. The course has hosted the Portuguese Open eight times, including Colin Montgomerie’s 1989 victory, which gives it the clearest tournament pedigree of Quinta do Lago’s three courses. A major renovation beginning in 2020 renewed playing surfaces and infrastructure with an emphasis on environmental performance. Compared with the fully redesigned North Course and the orchard character of Laranjal, South combines the resort’s longest history with a recognised championship test. Practice and academy facilities are available within the resort, while golf access and membership remain independent of residential ownership.

San Lorenzo Golf Course 18 holesPar 72Parkland

Championship golf beside Ria Formosa

Nestled in the heart of Ria Formosa Natural Park and just a short courtesy shuttle from the hotel, San Lorenzo Golf Course stands as one of Europe’s most celebrated golfing experiences. Set within the stunning Ria Formosa Natural Reserve. San Lorenzo Golf Course offers an unforgettable blend of natural beauty, tournament-level conditions, and expertly designed play. With sweeping ocean views, immaculate fairways, and a setting rich in wildlife and serenity, it’s more than a round of golf, it’s a destination in itself.

Vale do Lobo Ocean Golf Course 18 holesPar 73Coastal parkland and Atlantic resort golf

Atlantic-side fairways through the Vale do Lobo landscape

Vale do Lobo Ocean Golf Course is an 18-hole, par-73 layout extending to 6,122 metres in the central Algarve. Its undulating fairways run beside a nature reserve before descending towards the Atlantic, with the coastline becoming a defining part of the later holes. The course asks players to shape shots through established pine-lined ground rather than relying only on distance. Two long par fours, the 11th and 14th, are among its best-known coastal tests. For buyers around Quinta do Lago and Vale do Lobo, the Ocean Course provides a distinct seaside counterpart to the neighbouring Royal Course.

Vale do Lobo Royal Golf Course 18 holesPar 72Pine-lined clifftop resort course

Clifftop championship golf at Vale do Lobo

Vale do Lobo Royal Golf Course is an 18-hole, par-72 layout extending to 6,059 metres in the central Algarve. Inaugurated in 1997, it was designed by Rocky Roquemore from original drawings by Sir Henry Cotton. Pine-lined fairways, lakes and wildflower planting frame a course where accuracy from the tee matters. The ninth uses an island green, while the clifftop par-three 16th crosses the red sandstone edge above the Atlantic and is the course’s defining visual feature. Together with the neighbouring Ocean Course, Royal gives owners around Quinta do Lago and Vale do Lobo two clearly different full-length options.
