Dom Pedro Golf Vilamoura, recently crowned 2024 IAGTO Portugal Golf Resort of the Year, is undertaking an extensive renovation of the iconic Old Course to cement its place among the best courses in Europe.
The second oldest course in the Algarve has undergone a fundamental and sustainable series of updates over the last few months, with a new state-of-the-art clubhouse set to open in November.
The new clubhouse will include upgrades to the entrance, golf shop, living room, restaurant, bar, and the terrace area, giving it a classic and elegant look and feel that compliments the overall legacy of the course.
As a result of the renovations, the Old Course will be transformed into a premium gated club with an elevated experience, offering a personalised service, VIP concierge and world class playing conditions. Dom Pedro Golf Vilamoura have also incorporated a vast range of on-course improvements to one of the Algarve’s most renowned layouts.
The renovations have focused heavily on sustainability, introducing a new long-term strategy to make it one of Europe’s most environmentally friendly courses. Several key initiatives will be introduced such as new sprinkler systems and water-resistant grass varieties to reduce water consumption, hydropressor stations to reduce energy consumption, and new 100% electric machinery.
The changes are being made without the course, first opened in 1968, having to close and hopefully minimising the impact and enjoyment of visiting golfers. All on-course developments are due to be completed by the end of August.

the management platform which oversees all Vilamoura’s golfing assets, said: “The renovations of the Old Course align with the long-term vision of enhancing quality, sophistication, and an effortless guest experience.
