Bom Sucesso Resort
Designed by Donald Steel and opened in 2008, Guardian Bom Sucesso spreads over more than 60 hectares of rolling ground on the southern shore of the Óbidos Lagoon.
The front nine is the gentler half, with generous landing areas that invite a confident drive. The back nine climbs and falls over natural ridges, and the views open up across the lagoon to the ocean. Firm, well-defended greens ask for precision on every approach.
The course is the heart of Bom Sucesso, a resort of contemporary villas signed by some of the most celebrated names in architecture.
