| The Robert Trent Jones II-designed course at Cabo Real, an oceanfront destination resort, winds its way around beautiful homes and the ultra-exclusive Las Ventanas al Paraiso, hotel to the rich and famous. But the development is not so intrusive as to spoil the feeling of space and expansive ocean views. The site of the 1999 PGA Senior Slam Tournament, it’s designed to challenge the low handicapper, yet with multiple tees, is fun for players of any level. Robert Trent Jones II places fairway sand traps at distances from the tee boxes that require straight and direct tee shots or you will be playing from the sand. Rolling fairways move up the mountainside then drop back down toward the beach. From the elevated tee box on the par-4 ninth, a lake on the left and the ocean in the distance frames the fairway. The course moves towards the water for the back nine, with the par-4 14th sweeping down to the ocean on a palm tree-lined fairway, culminating in an elevated green right next to the rolling surf. The par-3 15th runs along the beach where tee shot accuracy once again becomes important in order to stay out the surf.
A picturesque and diverse course, Cabo Real Golf Club features rolling fairways with strategically placed bunkers on narrow terrain that work their way up to the 6th tee 460 feet above sea level. The first six holes are in mountainous terrain, with hills and valleys stretching into the surrounding Sierras; others are nestled near the beach. An inspiring view awaits you from each of them. Stronger players may be caught overshooting the 12th hole, which sits atop a high mesa facing the sea. |
| The most spectacular view of the course is from the 15th tee, directly on the beach, and plays near the surf in front of the hotel Melia Cabo Real and the Las Ventanas al Paraiso. With superb ocean views from every hole, this is yet another course that pleases the senses while offering a golfing challenge. Membership opportunities are available. | ||||||||||
