Oceânico’s Amendoeira Golf Resort in the Algarve has been subject to early rave reviews from both the world’s media and visiting guests alike.

With two championship courses – one designed by Nick Faldo and the other by Christy O’Connor Jnr – alongside a wealth of sporting and leisure amenities, Amendoeira has now opened a fully equipped state of the art golf academy.

The Amendoeira Golf Resort Academy and Callaway fitting suite boasts every practice facility for the amateur and tour professional alike and features a 9-hole par 3 floodlit course.

The Academy has a variety of golf programmes tailored to meet the needs of all standards of golfer seeking to improve and hone their games.

A complete menu of private one on one and group lessons are on offer with experienced PGA Professionals. Geared with state-of-the-art video analysis software and a CD/DVD featuring customized improvement plans, students will receive a record of key areas for improvement.

‘We are delighted with the opening of the Amendoeira Golf Resort Academy and Callaway Fitting Suite. It is a great facility with some of the finest conditioned practice areas in the region. We are looking forward to welcoming our guests and helping them advance their games to make sure they get the most out of their rounds on the Faldo and O’Connor Jnr courses,’ commented Managing Director Christopher Stilwell.

The resort will also feature six championship standard tennis courts, a full size football pitch, two bowling greens, two five-a-side football pitches, plus children’s facilities and play areas.

The opening of the Academy is an impressive addition to the array of facilities under the Oceânico Golf umbrella.

With the opening of the Amendoeira courses last year, Oceânico Golf has increased its portfolio to seven championship venues in the Algarve, as the company also owns the five courses at Vilamoura – Victoria, The Old Course, Millennium, Laguna and Pinhal.
