A pretty tropical course with a small mountain range as a backdrop and an ocean, nice and... blue ! This par 72 is not the most difficult course you will ever play but it looks very nice with its wide open landscape, its beautiful vegetation (not too overwhelming), small ponds, creeks and subtle elevation changes. The left dogleg par-4 1st hole, with its downhill slope, big bunkers and palm trees, sets the tone for what you will be facing, just like the par-4 2nd, with its beautiful panoramic view which includes a big sand trap across (near the tee box), a small fairway in the middle (surrounded by a lake), and the green on the other bank : simply superb... If, at first, the left dogleg par-4 4th hole looks interesting with its zigzagging path, the approach shot to the elevated green is breathtaking with a gazebo on the left side and a big pond (with a lone tree and two big rocks in the middle), right in front of the green ! After the par-3 5th hole, and its sloped green in front, the downhill par-4 6th has a nice panoramic view from the tee box with a lot of high rough and sand on the left side on the narrow fairway, just like the scenic par-3 7th hole, with its little creek in front of the tee box and going to the right. The dogleg par-5 9th hole, on another hand, has high rough on the right side with a meandering creek running in between, and an uphill approach to the green and is quite nice too. Coming back, I like the right dogleg par-4 10th hole with its downhill slope, a big bunker in the right corner and a small pond on the other side on the left, and the "cute" par-3 11th hole, with a downhill green, surrounded halfway by water. As the commentators would say, the par-4 14th hole is “slightly straight”, with the green only about 315 yards away, but it can be a little bit tricky with, of course, a bunker right in front of the flag ! As for the last three holes, they are quite picturesque : the downhill right dogleg par-4 16th hole has a small pond across the fairway halfway, the right dogleg par-4 17th requires a steep uphill approach shot to the green, and the downhill left dogleg par-5 18th hole, with its panoramic view, is a very nice way to finish your round, especially since you migght be able to putt for an eagle... Overall, while this tropical course is not as lush as others, it is still a gorgeous course, well designed as usual, by axe360, and is a definite keeper in my book !

Lovely course, so very nicely done and loads of fun to play. A beautiful setting - different to other coastal/tropical courses I've played - and the layout is smart and well-crafted. It's not excessively tough but you'll need all your skills to finish with a handsome score; I found the rough many times but never added grey hairs trying to recover - so a great balance of difficulty throughout. Brilliant design, another Axe classic, cheers!

Nice work, Axe ... it's great to see continued improvement in your designs. Creative hole layouts. My two favorites were the finishing hole and the par 3 5th hole. Really like the teeing areas and the bunkering. My only suggestion would be to add some more general elevation work surrounding the holes, but otherwise very nice job.

Nice course really enjoyed it, you know what I managed to find one of those small but DEEP bunkers on the right of the dogleg on hole 18....now if I WANTED to do that I could not have! i think it was the shock of seeing hole 18 thats why I went in it!

This course is a real gem. I can tell that AXE put a lot into this course. It plays like a real course, and offers risk/rewards for those who like to take risks. The scenery is awesome, and the greens are well done! My only complaint, and I played it twice (2nd time as 3-click) and the only thing I see is the shot path off the tee on the 3rd hole is not correct. It sends you right of the fairway into the bunker or in the grass (I test all courses in still condition, as shot paths are important, especially if your trying to figure out compensation for wind). Besides that, since I do not keep many fantasy courses, this is a definite keeper course, and should be a part of anybody's library. Thanks AXE.

Really nice axe!! You are really improving on elevation work. I enjoyed the view all around the course. Hole 18 is one of the better finishing holes I've seen! Great Job axe,and thank you for your time and effort...
