Jebel Ali Golf Resort and Spa Golf Courses - Jebel Ali Hotel

The National Course at Abu Dhabi Golf Club provides a tough but fair challenge, with lush fairways, strategically placed bunkers and generous greens.

The championship course weaves through undulating terrain that features palms, ornamental trees and shrubs, as well as seven saltwater lakes. An additional 9-hole course is also available at Abu Dhabi for less experienced players.

Arabian Ranches Golf Club was designed by former Open Champion Ian Baker Finch as a true desert style course similar to those found in Palm Springs, California and Scottsdale.

The course, which is just a short drive from Jumeirah Beach, features immaculate fairways and greens are flanked by sandy waste areas, making the most of the natural terrain and indigenous shrubs and bushes.

At Arabian Ranches Golf Club, the luxurious Spanish Colonial Clubhouse boasts the Ranches Restaurant and Bar with the Terrace hosting panoramic scenic views over the 9th and 18th holes. The Baker-Finch Room, complemented by a Terrace and the Birkdale Bar, is an exclusive venue to entertain your guests in a striking location!

The Faldo Course at Emirates Golf Club was redesigned by multiple major champion Nick Faldo in 2006 to offer a true test of golf to the best players.

One of the main themes of Faldo’s design is dramatic bunkering. Another unique design aspect is the “wadi” (from the Arabic word valley) that stretches the length of the course, adding extra character. Indigenous Gaff trees are dotted alongside the fairways - and in some cases on the fairways!

Although the course is long and requires powerful play, there are also great rewards for those who think their way around, in true Faldo style!

The Desert Miracle was the name given to Emirates Golf Club when it became the first all-grass championship golf course in the Gulf region, way back in 1988.

At Emirates Majlis lush, rolling fairways lead to large fast greens with the surrounding desert meaning you’ll have plenty of chances to practise your sand play. Water comes into play on many holes including the testing par-three 7th, with its long carry, and the thrilling par-five 18th, where the approach comes in across a lake to a long, thin green in the shape of a bow tie.

Emirates Majlis is host to the Dubai Desert Classic whose former winners include Tiger Woods.

The design of the clubhouse reflects a Bedouin tented village with seven gleaming white concrete and glass structures, complemented by the off-course areas where desert flora and fauna flourish.

Jebel Ali is a stunning 9-hole course which until recently played host to the “Shoot-out” curtain raiser to the Dubai Desert Classic.

Arranged on different elevations, the course features a salt-water lake that comes into play on five holes. Each hole is uniquely landscaped with exotic trees, shrubs and panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf. Peacock, guinea fowl, and partridges roam free on the perfectly manicured Bermuda grass greens and fairways.

The Montgomerie combines the traditions of Scottish links courses - rolling fairways and firm greens - with water features to create a unique test of golf in the desert.

Generous fairways allow for free hitting drives. Fourteen lakes and 72 bunkers provide the danger, in addition to the natural length and winds.

The signature hole is the par-three 13th, which boasts the largest single green in the world. This island green can be played from a 360 degree teeing ground, giving the advantage of a totally different golf hole each time you play!
