We are staying at The Phoenican for the last 2 days of our trip and we had the time and the opportunity to rent some clubs and play golf. It was my first real experience playing nine holes and with such an incredible coach in my sweet husband, who sacrificed his game to give me the best time on the course possible. I double bogied once and then hit par on the 8th hole. (The picture of the 8th hole is the last in this series). My right hand is all blistered from “trying too hard”. That and I need to stop “dipping”. I think we will go again soon. How fun!
A little from their website – the course was dreamlike…. we want to have a putting green in our backyard now… or at least downstairs….. : )
We played the Dessert Course. Just nine holes, but we started late after hitting a while at the driving range and coaching session… to make us the last people off the course… Truly in our style, last chair and sunset on the golf course…
Combining playability with aesthetic beauty, The Phoenician’s 27-hole USGA championship facility is comprised of three memorable nines, each named for its surrounding landscape – Canyon, Desert and Oasis. Pristine desert views, lush tropical scenery, water features, and all of the amenities that make golf a pleasure, await you during your round at The Phoenician.
