Situated 25km south of Lisbon, Aroeira is one of the most established names in Portuguese golf and, nestled amid natural pine forest, offers the perfect place to learn in an idyllic setting.
As well as offering an array of sports and lifestyle facilities, the venue features two 18-hole championship golf courses – Aroeira Pines Classic and Aroeira Challenge – and Aroeira recently announced a major upgrade of the two layouts over the next 12 months.
Work on renovating Aroeira Pines Classic, which hosted the Portuguese Open in 1996 and 1997, and improving sustainability will take place from now until October, with a similar upgrade to follow on Aroeira Challenge later in the year. Among the changes being implemented, extensive renovations will be made to the bunkers, tees, greens, course landscaping and irrigation system to greatly improve the playing experience on offer.
Aroeira is a place where sports meet fun and alongside the Olympic sports experience for the kids, the venue offers a summer events calendar from June to September featuring everything from barbeques and Sunday brunches to jazz concerts and cinema sessions by night – and all just a short drive from the Portuguese capital.
What’s more, the golden sandy beaches of the nearby town of Caparica are just five minutes away while Aroeira works with a number of accommodation partners including the chic Aroeira Lisbon Hotel which, located on the estate, features 68 modern bedrooms and suites, an outdoor pool, a spa and a choice of five bars and restaurants.
