Golf

Unforgettable Golf

In Barbados

Spectacular coastal views, deep gullies, coral cave backdrops. A course so thoughtfully designed that it rewards every level of player, and stays with you long after the final putt. From the first tee, you'll understand why people move here for this.

Above par,
In A Naturally Good Way

Reserved for homeowners and staying guests, our championship course offers a level of privacy that’s rare, and a sense of belonging that’s even rarer.

    

Play through rainforest gullies and sweeping views with no queues, no noise, and no rush. Just you, the game, and the island at its most beautiful.

Championship Golf

Challenge at Every Turn.
Calm at Every Finish.

Redesigned by the late Ron Kirby, our 18-hole par-71 Championship course winds through gullies, fig trees and the occasional troop of Barbados Green monkeys. The scenery earns its own reputation. When the final putt drops, the 20th Hole Clubhouse is waiting with cold drinks and good company.
