4 Nights, 3 Rounds
Located just off the Abu Dhabi coast, Saadiyat Beach Golf Club boasts a Gary Player designed golf course that in its short existence has become one of the most sought after in the Middle East.
As the Middle East’s first beachfront golf course, which was constructed in compliance with strict environmental guidelines, Saadiyat offers not only an exciting and varied test of golf but spectacular views of the Gulf’s glittering blue waters bordered by stretches of pristine white sand. Each hole has its own distinct character and although the course is a stern examination of a players skill from the back tees, several additional tee positions enable golfers of all abilities to enjoy this desert jewel.
With stunning views across the Arabian Gulf, golfers can enjoy a range of luxury nearby hotels to enjoy as part of their stay, the most obvious being The St Regis Saadiyat Beach which overlooks part of the course as it winds around the beach and stunning dunes that contribute to this being such a memorable experience.
With personalised bag tags, lockers and a real ‘Member for the Day’ experience, golfers simply must include Saadiyat Beach Golf Club on their next Abu Dhabi Golf Break.

Nice layout amongst the dunes and the beach and not overly difficult but still a good test. Tees and airways were very good but greens were average - looked a bit diseased . They putted ok but looked awful and looked unkempt.

Course is difficult if you don't like accuracy off the tea trying to avoid bunkers and strategically placed water hazards, the 18th being a great example. I thoroughly enjoyed this course but then I played ok for me, my partner disliked it, mainly as he played badly. Course reviews can vary on how you played on the day.

This course stands out for a generous and long layout, some fabulous sea-side holes, great wildlife including lots of very tame gazelles and a fabulous closing three holes that are a test for any golfer. If I have to be picky, my major criticism is its crazy number of bunkers which festoon every hole. Condition in early February was good. A very enjoyable round but weak golfers might find it a bit of a technical slog.

We had two fantastic rounds of golf on this course; including one round with two of your clients Richard and cindy . Absolutely lovely people and they made our day / round very enjoyable. If David could contact Mr I would appreciate it . Regards kelvin.

Not just the fact there is far too many bunkers but more that there is not enough fairway between the bunkers.

Found this course quite tough to play... Too many bunkers, looked and felt like you were playing on the beach. Great location but wouldn’t rush back

We were at the tail end of a competition so round was a bit slow. Nevertheless the course was in great condition and the setting is excellent. We had to pay for a taxi back too the hotel - cost DHR 100 - because Your Goilf got the pick up time wrong.

It is the desert I know but way too much sand for an amateur to contend with!

Very different to Abu Dhabi Golf Club, I'd say it was 2nd out of the 3 we played with Yas Links being our favourite. The course is well designed with the course getting a bit easier as you go round, the front nine is at least two shots harder than the back nine. The 5th hole was really memorable which is a great short par-4 on the coast line. The bar was good with nice faciliites but a little less atmosphere than the other courses. Simply a two day trip to Abu Dhabi playing here and Yas Links should be on all golfers bucket lists.

Saadiyat Beach was the second course we played in Abu Dhabi and it was quite a bit different to Abu Dhabi Golf Club. We felt it was more challenging and potentially interesting than the Abu Dhabi GC with every hole presenting a new challenge. Service was again fantastic and would recommend playing here.
