Assoufid Golf Club

Winner of Morocco’s & Africa’s Best Golf Course at the World Golf Awards, Assoufid offers the premier golf experience in Marrakech, and with no less than 5 sets of tees that can change the total length of the course by almost 2000 yards; a thoroughly enjoyable and challenging game of golf is on the cards here for golfers with a great variety of handicaps.

With the spectacular backdrop of the Atlas Mountains, Assoufid was designed by former European Tour player Niall Cameron, and features generous fairways that cut their way through the desert wasteland, giant bunkers which should be avoided at all costs, subtle slopes, and the odd dramatic elevation change, most notably at the par 3 17th; all of which will test a golfers skillset.

For lower handicappers, the course can stretch to well over 7,000 yards, so Assoufid is very much in the “championship golf” mold, with other courses in the Marrakech area offering a more friendly test of golf. That’s not to say higher handicappers can’t take their games to Assoufid and test their skills. From the forward tees, the golf course plays to a much more manageable 5,500 yards.

Ranked as the 5th best golf course in all of Morocco and located less than half an hour from the heart of Marrakech itself, Assoufid is an ideal inclusion on any Morocco Golf Holiday.

The course was busy and the staff helpful. The first nine holes were, we found, better than the second nine holes. We did enjoy the course but did not find it as enjoyable as the Royal Marrakech.

Wow -- what a course. Desert, lush fairways, mountains, ravines, cacti, bunkers, water OMG.. great but challenging. had a fantastic four being paired with a married, German couple. Knackered though due to three intensive days in 30 degrees but what an adventure and I learned so much. Great course

Played this one off the yellows so it was not as long as the others. I scored well but had a great day with my short game. Each hole looked spectacular and there were some breath-taking views of the Atlas mountains.

Golf course, facilities and staff were fantastic. Although the course was busy we were not pressured at anytime by golfers in front or to the rear. The restaurant, food and staff are excellent. We would definitely recommend anyone looking for a golf course in this area to put this club at the top of their list. We will go back.

Our favourite course of the week. It has the advantage of not being flat and there are interesting altitude changes. The dry water courses mean they are small canyons to go over as well as waste areas. The course is very challenging off the white tees with a number of long par 4s. All the par 3s are good holes as well. The greens were a little slower than some of the other courses but quite difficult to read. Again this is a relatively open driving course but you need to drive it straight and long to reach the green in regulation.

The nice layout and a good golfing test. Some of the tees, greens and fairway were a bit sandy in place, maybe due to maintenance. Although many of the holes had desert round and on some you needed a decent carry to get to the fairway. There were also areas where you had bolders or large stone, admitting if you went in these areas it was a poor shot, but you risked damaging you clubs to get your ball back on the fairway. But by and large we enjoyed playing Assoufid

A great pity that French golfers can't be bothered to rake bunkers. Particularly noticeable on this Moroccan course, given we have played it three years running now. Bunker etiquette by visitors needs to improve, or green staff need to be deployed to rake bunkers during busy times!

Signage between holes needs to be improved. Enjoyed the coursed but there was a lot of rocky areas to carry from tee boxes and off the fairways which meant placing the ball on to grass area otherwise there was the risk of ruining ones clubs.

The most pleasing course to the eye, of the 3 we played. Not just a flat desert course with tough greens. The course is undulating with hidden hazards. The director of golf took the time to chat with us and other groups on the terrace, recommending other courses and places to see, which was a good touch.

This report broadly is the same for our overall holiday experience on the courses booked by YGT. We may have been unlucky but the course was blocked up by a large group of French, who appeared to be playing a tournament moving from one course to another and we in tow! We witnessed 8, 6 and 5 people in the groups ahead moving very slowly ignoring normal golf etiquette. The course encouraged caddies and the group in front used their caddy as a teacher, naturally slowing things up. We reported our feelings and the Manager (a scot) took our concerns on board, and said he needed to brief the marshalls more firmly.

For a lady that doesn’t have a big hit the carry over the dirt/shale area on some holes is vast. Mainly on the front 9 so this course does need course management. Can’t fault the greens,views and the club house facilities. The Atlas Mountains in the background is stunning.

This was an excellent golf course. It was in excellent condition, the fairways and greens were excellent and it was very picturesque. We really enjoyed our round here, the holes are well set out and no two are the same, all having their own character. This was the best of the three courses we played. A very enjoyable experience.

In my opinion this is the best and most pleasant of the courses in Marrakech. Most new courses feel that they have to include huge water features and dozens of bunkers. Golf is not a water sport and Assoufid has none. Great venue with stunning views of the Atlas Mountains. Super

Not difficult to understand why Assoufid has recently been voted top course in Africa. Course was again in superb condition with some holes demanding some thought rather than hit & hope. Par 3 17th hole requires some serious consideration.

Assoufid was our least favourite to play but only because the fairways had recently been holotined and we had to play clean and place the course was visually spectacular and really difficult if your not the longest driver of the ball. I would say if your a low handicapper this course will be a real challenge for you!! The practice facilities were great and at no extra cost!! The 19 hole was a nice place to be and like all the other courses the drinks were expensive at £30 for 4 beers!! Over all this is a really nice course it was just lacking a little condition and was a little to tough for our party but would definitely play it again if the fairways were back to there best.
