Green Fee Guide:
€€
Overview: Millennium is
located on the edge of Vilamoura. It shares the same clubhouse as Laguna golf course. In fact, the back-nine was once
part of Laguna. Martin Hawtree's golf design company added 9 new holes and the
course opened in it's present form in 2000, hence the course's name.
Reasons to play Millennium
Golf: A very playable course for all golfers. It's a great course for
mid-handicap golfers off the yellow tees, but low handicappers will want to go
off the medal tees. The woodland section of the course, holes 3 to 7, is one of
the best sequences of holes in Portugal.
Factors to consider at Millennium
Golf: It is only lightly undulating, so you can save on a hiring a
buggy. If you want to play 36 holes in one day, you could combine Millennium
with Laguna next door.
Degree of difficulty of Millennium
Golf: You do need to keep it straight on the woodland section and the
back-nine is a bit tight in places. But generally it is fairly forgiving and the
greens are fair, so a good score is quite possible.
Our overall verdict:
Millennium offers a very pleasant round of golf. Worth
Considering |
