The owner of oitavos set out to build one of europe's finest golf experiences, all while staying true to the quinta's elegant natural and historical setting. They believed that, with such an innately beautiful location, each hole of the oitavos golf course could blend perfectly into its surroundings, ensuring a natural appearance of variety and charm. The management of oitavos dunes golf club has developed strict rules of land reverence in order to achieve this target of excellence. The course must be of the highest standard and well-maintained.

The oitavos dunes golf course features three distinct landscape types: a forested region (complete with the world's most stunning umbrella pine trees), dunes land, and more open coastal transition areas. The golf course at oitavos dunes was built to take advantage of all three regions, integrating all of their distinct characteristics. Similar to links land courses in scotland, the route is a continuous circle of nine holes, nine out and nine in.
