  If you are a golfing nut then you will play this course regardless of price and so you should. However it is vastly overpriced , living off past reputation and has lost its status as a course on the European Tour. When we played it was in so so condition , it had been windy and the cork trees had shed a lot of leaves and we were made to wait an hour whilest members claimed the right to tee off in front of us, even though we had pre booked tee times.Personally I hate to hit good tee shots , find the fairway and am then stymied by a tree!La Reserva next door, less then half the price and as good once you have stripped away V`s reputation and they also collect you from the carpark put your clubs in a buggy and clean everything when you have finished.

  Even for people who do practice golf...The maintenance of the greens and surroundings is outstanding.

  Course in absolutely pristine condition No such thing as a bad lie Cork trees, 2500+, line and behind each hole, canopies touching. Very difficult course, but not overly long and as beautiful as can be. Nice small place to eat and a deck overlook s the first tee. Staff very courteous and attentive to guests Got me a caddie on 60 minutes' notice

  Returned after playing first nearly 10 years ago and it was as good as I remembered. Very friendly staff, clubs cleaned after the round and carried back to the car. The drinks cart appeared virtually every other hole with free water and bananas, little touches such as that make the difference.If you play golf, a must do for your list.

  Never crowded. Just golf, no fuss. Beautiful scenery and holes that are non of them alike. Perfect upkeep and perfect clubhouse. Wonderful personnel.

  The course is magnificient. The ambience of the course and clubhouse monastic. The interior was recently 'upgraded' to a souless modern style. The service varies from non-existent( I have played twice and arrived at the clubhouse to find both bar and restaurant closed!!!)to just ok. Smiles are hard to come by and I have lost count of the times that the member/host has lost the plot because of incredible time delays in bar service. This is a MUST PLAY course for the aficionado of the game, but not worth the visitor prices. To be fair to the club, it has gone through some major changes of late..... but any club that lacks a friendly face, co-operative and helpful staff doesnt deserve any stars! Bring lots of balls.....and leave your temper in the car. Both course and club will test you!

  It was a dream of mine to play this course and I was hoping that I would not be disappointed. It was a truly fantastic experience and it definitely lived up to its reputation. Service is superb and the golf amazing. The starters make sure no one goes off too quick so there is generally no waiting on the course. The greens were so quick giving us a taste of what the pros have to deal with. There are no two holes the same and will test every level of golfer. The caddy's were very knowledgeable and should definitely be trusted! We had relatively calm weather so were not bothered with the twigs on the greens. Was a little disappointed with the ladies selection in the pro shop but everything else was first class.

  But what top golf course isn't? Played in a tournament here and suffice to say none of us played to our hc. It is very tough and the greens are unbelievably fast. One of my partners putted his ball off the 17th green into the pond. But you have to play at least once in your life. So go.

  Best golf course in Europe continental. A great experience which any golfer must do at least once, but even better the second time or third time. It is expensive but worth every Euro!Lunch on sunday is also a must, or diner in the member dining room.
