Nice little course, not overly difficult with many wide greens but a few well-placed bunkers and some water hazards will keep you in check on a few holes.
On the front 9, I like the right dogleg par-4 1st hole, with the lake on the left side and behind the green, the left dogleg par-4 2nd, with lakes, left and right, the par-3 5th hole, quite scenic with four bunkers and a few palm trees around the green (and the lake behind), and the left dogleg par-4 7th hole, with an uphill tee shot and a long blind approach shot to the downhill green, with the lake very close behind.
The par-4 8th hole, slightly to the left, with the lake below all along the fairway on the left side, and the par-3 9th, with the flag at the tip of the peninsula green, surrounded by water, are nice too.
Coming back, after the dogleg par-4 10th hole, with the lake on the right side, and the par-3 13th, with its wide peninsula green, the course is less scenic as it moves inland, with the right dogleg par-4 18th hole, being quite... bare around the green.
Playing-wise, this course runs like a charm but, despite its nice plantings and landscape, I do not think it is challenging enough, unlike some other Neil Munro's courses, but that does not take away, of course, all the great work done to design this one in a very short period of time !

I expected something Scottish (generally my favourite courses) but I was surrounded by palm trees; but: a beauty of a course Mr.Munro! (4 1/2 stars)
Keep on going!
Thank you.

If you have ever tried the caddie then you know what the stock holes look like, Flat and boring. 17 hours later SHAZAM they now look super! Great job Neil!*****

Played this course in tournament over at PGAX. Another great job by a great designer, especially when you consider the time constraints.
