The Els Club Vilamoura is the first Els Club in Europe and the first private golf club in Portugal’s Algarve region. It marks the transformation of the historic Victoria Golf Course, which previously hosted the Portugal Masters eight consecutive times until 2022. 

Completely redesigned by four-time major winner Ernie Els, The Els Club Vilamoura was created to offer championship conditions all year round. The course reflects Els’ design philosophy, combining natural beauty with strategic challenge and playability. With elegant water features, sculpted bunkers and seamless integration with the surrounding landscape, it provides a setting worthy of top-level competition.
