MONTE REI
Overview
Montei Rei, the first of two Jack Nicklaus signature golf courses. `Monte Rei North` has been open since June 2007. The club is set in the foothills of the Eastern Algarve with sweeping views of the Serra do Caldeirao mountains to the North and the Atlantic Ocean to the South. The layout wanders through gentle hills and valleys and has a wonderful mix of sculptured bunkers and lakes. The fairways and greens are bordered by an abundance of plants, grasses and trees enhancing the already spectacular landscape. Each hole has its own unique characteristics and offers players a truly memorable experience.

Smartavilla's Opinion.....
The quality of the course and the service is why Monte Rei is quickly becoming known as the Eastern Algarve's 'Jewel in the Crown'. The Green Fee includes:
- Golf Buggy stocked with bottled water, towels, tees, pencil and scorecard
- 3D golf course guide
- Monte Rei Pith Repair Tool
- Access to practice facilities prior to play
- Complimentary Callaway range balls
- Personalised Monte Rei Souvenir nickel Bag Tag
- Expansive Guest Locker Room Facilities
12 minute tee time intervals ensure that the game is leisurely and unhurried and with each hole being totally independent of each other, you really feel like you are playing on your own! Whilst this may sound like a daunting challenge, golfers of varying ability should not be dissuaded as there are 4 different starting points to account for varying handicaps. One word of warning however, the greens are very quick with 11.5+ on the stimple. Costly, but wirth every penny and the added extras do give value for money.
