Bom Sucesso Golf Course
Bom Sucesso Golf Course
Bom Sucesso is modern Portuguese golf wrapped in timeless beauty. Designed by Donald Steel and opened in 2008, this championship layout unfolds across the rolling hills near Óbidos Lagoon, blending contemporary architecture with lush natural surroundings. The course offers dramatic elevation changes, wide fairways bordered by silver olive groves, and serene lakes that mirror the shifting sky.
Every hole presents a new perspective, with panoramic views stretching toward the Atlantic and the medieval town of Óbidos in the distance. The routing challenges players to think creatively, with strategic bunkering and undulating greens that reward precision over power. With its seamless integration into the landscape, Bom Sucesso feels both refined and refreshingly natural.
Cypress & Salt curates Bom Sucesso escapes that highlight the balance of design, luxury, and tranquility. Guests enjoy stays in architect-designed villas, private culinary experiences featuring local seafood and wines, and access to cultural tours through Óbidos’ cobbled streets. At Bom Sucesso, golf becomes an art form, elegant, thoughtful, and deeply connected to Portugal’s soul.
