Dom Pedro Golf Vilamoura on the south coast of Portugal is renovating its Old course, with work expected to be complete by the end of August.
The Algarve resort is refining greens and fairways; grassing and levelling tees, with some reorientated; addressing lips and slopes of bunkers, with new sand added; better defining playing areas; and introducing a new sprinkler system.
“The renovations of the Old course align with the long-term vision of enhancing quality, sophistication and an effortless guest experience,” said Nuno Sepúlveda, co-CEO of Details, the management platform which oversees all Vilamoura’s golfing assets. “These improvements specifically target maintaining high standards in golfing facilities and service and reinforcing Vilamoura’s image as a premier golf destination.
“The renovations are meticulously planned to respect its classic design and rich heritage, while still introducing improvements that enhance the overall golfing experience. By carefully balancing the old with the new, the renovation ensures that the course remains a cherished destination for golfers.”
The resort is also installing modern technology at its driving range and a new clubhouse is set to open in November.
