About

Natural Luxury

Across 475 acres of deep winding gullies, coral rock formations and rare sand dunes, Apes Hill offers views to both the east and west coasts of Barbados. It is a landscape that feels alive, where nature sets the rhythm and friendships are often made over a round of golf or a drink at the clubhouse.

A Warm Welcome To

Luxury Island Living

 

Life at Apes Hill is shaped by balance. It is a community for golf lovers and for those seeking an exceptional lifestyle in an inspiring setting. Days can be spent outdoors trekking, cycling, swimming or simply unwinding by the pool. However the time is passed, our community ensures every moment enriches your wellbeing and connection to nature.

The Resort

A Golf Community Like No Other

Set 1,000 feet above sea level, Apes Hill Barbados is a golf resort and private community shaped by nature, designed for wellbeing and built around the love of the game.

 

Here, golf is played on our world-class 18-hole Championship Course, supported by a cutting-edge Performance Centre for those looking to refine every aspect of their swing.

 

Beyond the fairways, our Racket Centre features eight Padel courts and two tennis courts, while hiking trails wind through gullies and green hillsides. Looking ahead, One Eleven, our coastal beach club, will offer a new way to unwind where time slows and the sea sets the tone.

Location

Elevated – And Down To Earth

Apes Hill sits alongside the island’s remarkable Scotland District, a rare geological formation where an underwater mountain range, known as the Barbados Ridge Accretionary Prism, rises above the sea. Here, nature provides a dramatic backdrop to the game of golf.

 

Just a short drive away is historic Holetown, home to beaches, galleries, dining and museums that bring even more of Barbados to life.
