Top 5 singles golf vacations in Europe
To help you find the sun-drenched golf holiday you’ve been dreaming of, we’ve rounded up the top 5 singles golf trips in Europe.
1) Vilamoura, Portugal
Situated in Portugal’s Algarve region, Vilamoura is a bustling resort known for its golf courses and large sandy beach. It’s home to the internationally-known Vila Sol Golf Championship course, one of the most sought after courses in the Algarve. Designed and inaugurated in 1991 by renowned architect Donald Steel, the course blends seamlessly into the surrounding environment and takes full advantage of the umbrella pine, fig and cork trees which frame each fairway. As tempting as it might be, you can’t spend your whole singles golf trip on the fairway. Base yourself at the 4-star Pestana Vila Sol resort, and spend your afternoons off in the indoor and outdoor pools, or head into cosmopolitan Vilamoura to watch the boats bob in and out of the town’s lively marina.
2) Monte Gorde, Portugal
One of the most up-and-coming destination for singles golf destinations in Europe, Monte Gorde is also home to arguably the best beach in Portugal’s Eastern Algarve. While once a sleepy fishing village, the modern resort town now buzzes with life, attracting families, beach-goers and golfers alike. It’s here that you can play three of the Algarve’s most highly regarded golf courses: Quinta do Vale, Castro Marim and Monte Rei Golf Courses. Designed by Seve Ballesteros, Quinta do Vale uses strategically placed hazards to challenge even the best of players, while Castro Marim is made up of three 9 hole segments, all of which are teeming with wildlife. The golf at Monte Rei, however, is unrivalled in the region. Enjoying a privileged position at the foothills of the Eastern Algarve, the course features an enjoyable series of eight par-4s, five par-3s and five par-5s in a brave and distinctive layout.

Surrounded by pine and olive trees, the course has views of the Mediterranean on one side and the spectacular Besparmak Mountains on the other. And, when you’re not practicing your swing, you can take a short 25-minute drive to the historic harbour town of Kyrenia where a picturesque castle, local markets and bobbing boats will all fight for your attention.
5) Belek, Turkey
