The feature highlights Apes Hill’s Championship 18-hole course being ranked No. 7 in Golfweek’s “Top 50 Courses in Mexico, Caribbean, Atlantic Islands and Central America,” alongside inclusion in Golf World’s Top 100 World Resorts list. Together, the rankings place Apes Hill among an elite group of golf resorts recognised for both course quality and overall guest experience.
Designed by Ron Kirby, the 18-hole course is praised for its memorable routing, immaculate conditioning and dramatic setting high above the island. The article also references Apes Hill’s growing reputation beyond golf, noting the quality of its accommodation, amenities and lifestyle offering, as well as its ability to appeal equally to golfers and non-golfers.

“There is a touch of class about everything at Apes Hill.”

The feature further acknowledges Apes Hill’s broader appeal, from its elevated position 1,000 feet above sea level with panoramic views of both the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea, to its wellbeing, sporting and leisure experiences including Padel and tennis, nature trails, and the newly opened beach club.
Sustainability also forms a key part of the recognition, with Drift Magazine highlighting Apes Hill’s long-standing commitment to environmental stewardship. The resort’s Audubon International certification, alongside initiatives such as on-site farming, water management systems and conservation-led land practices, are positioned as integral to its identity.
Together, these accolades reinforce Apes Hill’s position as a globally recognised golf resort, combining world-class course design, thoughtful development and a distinctive Caribbean sense of place.
