Divi Village Golf & Beach Resort

It’s one of two options in Aruba but the course wasn’t in good shape. For the cost it definitely could be better maintained.

Course was good, better than the reviews. Greens were fast but overall a good time.

I try to be as fair as possible when writing reviews because I know how hard it is to run a golf course. So let me break it down:

Positives:

-Rental clubs are very nice (All Titlelist with a Scotty putter)

-Course Layout is fun

-Staff is pretty friendly

Negatives:

-Course conditions are nasty. Tee boxes are ripped up. Greens are sprayed to look nice but in reality are very beat up. Bunkers are near unplayable.

-Way over priced. The course is not long. Nor nice enough to pay for what they charge.

-PACE OF PLAY WAS BRUTAL. We teed off at 11:40 and didn’t finish until 3:00. No rangers or staff to move play along.

Would highly recommend you save your money and wait to play Tierra del Sol. This place needs a lot of work and help. I really was looking forward to a great round but really feels like an unkept municipal course back in the states.

Clear case of limited options and resources. Friendly staff, as they charge $8 for 16oz Gatorade. Rentals were fine. Shag carpet rolled better. Only 9 holes, with different tee boxes. Alternate options on Island are under renovation- give it 6 months, then go there. Overpriced, if you need a fix, play 9 - smile and wave, then hit the beach. Thx for the Hot Deal GN.

Divi resorts...you are better then this. If yiure not gping to maintain a golf course as well as yiu do your accomodatuons then close the course and buold more condos. Divi has ezcellent food, accomods5ions and overall facilities. The golf course is not fully a joke but nowhere near the quality something Divi's name on ot shoulld be.

The staff was excellent. The layout and pace of play was pretty good as well. Thats where the good ends.

Fairways are worse then burnt out municipals. The greens were puttable, wi5h a sledgehammer. Th golf cart was a richety piece of bare bones equipment i expect tp fall apart any second. The worst was were the clubs. One reviewer took a picture of the putter "grip" and boy was it accurate. All grips need replacing years ago.

If the place didnt charge but around $50 for 9 holes and rentala, ok. But approaching $150 for such inferioe quality is intentional, blatant robbing of golfers expectations for that price.

When you check in at the counter there is a plaque that reads "no refunds". I was thinking no rain checks. Nop3, its undoubetly becasue so many golfers have wanted their money back after realizing theyre not getting anywhere near the qualtiy they just paid for.

If you get ansy and have to swing a club...go to Terra Del Sol and use their range before going to this place.

First time playing the golf course, no sign for direction, staff not friendly.

The staff was horrible from the second we walked in to check in. Gave them the time and get “they are golf now”. The cashier, the cart guys, everyone literally gave the bare minimum of service and they weren’t kind about it. Have played there 2x before and the service was completely different. Only good for a “played golf in Aruba” place as the course is not fair at best. Greens are long and slow.

Amenities were good. Mulligans restaurant was very nice overlooking the island green.

Pro shop staff was very nice. Some of the starters were very rude and disconcerning.

The course is a nice 9 hole course for tourists. They should have a monthly package for those who stay longer

Course was good overall. Greens are slower than I am used too. Also the half way house was closed which was unfortunate but not a show stopper

The conditions are terrible. The pace of play is the slowest I’ve seen. The “range” is a net. There are no noteworthy holes, just a lot of poorly maintained fairways and tee boxes leading to meh greens.

They should be ashamed.
