About Rose Hall
Rose Hall features multiple hotels to choose from during your stay: The Hilton Rose Hall Resort & Spa and multiple Iberostar options, including the Iberostar Grand Rose Hall, the Iberostar Selection Rose Hall Suites and the Iberostar Rose Hall Beach. The Iberostar chain of hotels is based on tiers. If you're a guest at the highest tier, the Grand, you have access to all of the properties, but those staying at other Iberostar resorts can't access the Grand's higher-end restaurants. Every Iberostar property and the Hilton come equipped with rooms and suites showcasing ocean or poolside views. All-inclusive options are available. Guests may relax at the spa or at one of the outdoor pools, participate in water sports on the beach, or enjoy the daily nighttime entertainment on property, including live music, professional shows and a nightclub. There is also a Star Camp for children providing activities and babysitting services. The two championship courses at Rose Hall, White Witch and Cinnamon Hill, are historic tracks also rumored to be haunted by the former plantation's 'wicked mistress,' Annie Palmer.Facts

Great staff, great course
Rental clubs were Calloway’s. Awesome service. Small bar, no restaurant on site but they have snacks and Jamaican Pattie’s.
White Witch just reopened
White Witch just reopened on 15 Dec after two years of closure. Conditions were somewhat rough but playable. Would give it some time.
White witch
The course has just opened and the greens are in poor condition. Still a magnificent layout and good pace of play. Not sure the mandatory caddie is needed.
Just reopened - Still worth the play
The course had been left to overgrow since COVID but just reopened on 12/15/22; I played it roughly 3 days since reopening and I was ultimately glad that I did. It's definitely not the BEST course in Jamaica, nor in the MoBay area in it's current state (Cinnamon Hill came more highly reviewed by the staff), but you get 3 very distinct styles on this course; elevated ocean views, great mountain backdrops, and cool winding jungle layouts; definitely not something I think you'll find ANYWHERE ELSE on the island.
The fairways and tee boxes were all pretty much in "as expected" condition for the price point. Everything was cut tight, there were some problem spots but nothing that you wouldn't see anywhere else. The biggest issue were the greens and the bunkers. Some of the greens had bare spots/dirt/sand plaguing them, but you could tell the course is paying the right attention in an attempt to bring them back to full condition. Bunkers are likely going to need to be fully redone if they want to get a a mid $100 price point; none of them were playable while I was there.
Driving range was also still closed when I played but it looked awesome. The clubhouse needs a full overhaul as it's outdated and there wasn't much in terms of food options.
Overall the review I got was that Cinnamon Hill is in far better condition and likely best for those looking to maximize a single round of golf on the island, but the views and layout are likely more incredible at White Witch.
Excellent golf experience with a caddie
Our first time with a caddie whose name was Arnette. She gave us excellent advice especially on the greens. Highly recommend her if you play there.
Excellent course
Loved this course, staff was amazing and looked after everything. We stored our clubs in club storage for two weeks so we didn’t have to pack them back to the hotel. Took a caddy one day which was really nice. Caddies very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend.
Classic Jamaica
Basically two courses, the front 9 is a links course along the water and the back 9 is a mountain course. Greens, fairways and bunkers were all in good condition. Only complaint would be carts. The brake pedal would stay engaged if the gas pedal was engaged.
Keep in mind greens are Bermuda grass so while quick by Jamaica standards they’re slow by northern US standards.

Excellent conditions for this time of year
Very friendly staff
Do it
Stunning views all the way through. If you are a golf purist you will not love some of the greens, but it is an overall fantastic experience
Great course
We were on a cruise ship and we played this course it was fabulous. We rented clubs and they were last years demo excellent!! We went on GOLF NOW and saved a lot. Take your balls and gloves as they are very expensive.
