Golfe do Bom Sucesso: this relatively new 18-hole championship golf course stretches along the length of the Bom Sucesso resort. Here you'll find a golf course that weaves through a considerable residential development and alongside woodland. Luxury villa accomodations and other leisure facilities also available for visiting golfers.
The course is located in close proximity to the Óbidos lagoon (without any directly lakeside holes), while the sea and the Costa Prata (Silver Coast), is just 3 km away. Designed by the renowned architect Donald Steel, the two nine-hole loops of this par-72 layout comprise a front-nine played on relatively level terrain, while the back-nine offers a more undulating landscape.
The bunkering is relatively light, neither too deep nor numerous. The putting surfaces are full of interesting and challenging slopes and borrows.
Stay&Play at Bom Sucesso: luxury onsite accommodation available, see Where2Stay section below.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance. Maximum handicap: 36. Handicap certificate required.
