I Recommend This Course
Not long but really tough
This course is a beautiful layout with some spectacular views (do not fail to visit the back tee on 15 or maybe 16.) Be sure to play the appropriate tee as there are many forced carries. Most of the difficulty comes from the jungle which intrudes on almost every hole. Length is not the big issue although you may not agree when you see the 18th hole. Bring lots of balls and enjoy the challenge and the beauty.
