Dubai - A Golfing Paradise
Dubai is an award-winning golf destination and for good reason! It is home to the prestigious PGA Dubai Desert Classic, which each year sees the world’s best players compete for a multi-million dollar prize.
One&Only Royal Mirage offers access to more than six spectacular golf courses designed to challenge and delight golfers of all abilities, just ten minutes from the world famous Emirates Golf Club and The Montgomerie and 30 minutes away from the other courses, the resort is the perfect clubhouse for a Dubai golfing break.
Emirates Golf Club
Emirates Golf Club was the first all-grass championship golf course in the Middle East. The Majlis course, voted by Golf Digest as one of the 100 Best Courses Outside the USA, is an 18-hole 7,301-yard, par 72 course.
The Montgomerie, Dubai
The Montgomerie, Dubai is a world-class challenge. The par 3 13th hole is not only designed in the shape of the UAE, it also lays claim to being the largest single golfing green in the world – at 58,000 square feet - it’s the size of nine greens combined!
Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club
The spectacular Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club is situated in the heart of the city on the shores of the creek. The club’s 18-hole, par 71 course rolls 6,857 undulating yards along well-groomed fairways lined with date and coconut palms and striking water hazards.
The Desert Course at Arabian Ranches
The Desert Course at Arabian Ranches measures a vast 7,691 yards from the championship tees and is the first true Dubai desert course in the city. With no water hazards to face, players tackle the elements and one enormous twisting bunker, the desert itself, on a sprawling course cultivated from the desert topography.
The Els Club
The Els Club is located at Dubai Sports City. Stretching 7,538 yards from the tips, it features four sets of teeing areas to suit individual golfers. Set on undulating slopes of native desert vegetation, it is a links-style layout combed with traditional design.
Al Badia
Just two miles from Dubai International Airport and positioned as the centrepiece of the prestigious Dubai Festival City project, is the 18-hole par 72, Al Badia, with eleven lakes of varying sizes and several smaller streams, all feeding water down to Dubai Creek. 'Rivers of Sand' have also been created to cast contrasting shadows, which fall across the course as the sun sets.
Jumeirah Golf Estates
Jumeirah Golf Estates is home to Dubai’s most desirable residences and the world’s premier golf destination. The Earth Course, which has rapidly gained a reputation as one of the best in the region for quality and challenge, is host to the prestigious Dubai World Championship.
