Tierra del Sol Resort & Golf

we have played this course several times over the years and have played it twice this week on our visit to aruba. This years conditions were especially good! Understanding, that this is a desert course the conditions were green and well kept up. Yeah, some of the tee boxes were just OK, especially the ladies but overall it was very nice, The pace of play was good and we enjoyed the experience once again. We will be back next year!

Tierra del Sol never fails to give you a challenging yet friendly round. Play the winds correctly with your club selection and you can have a great round. If you don’t then you may end up having more bogeys than you should! I am an 18 handicap female and I managed the course with ease . Very fun course. My only complaint would be that for the money you spend on the round you would expect the fairways and tee boxes to be a bit plusher. I realize that we are playing during A Pandemic and they may not be as busy but at least water the fairways!! The red tee boxes definitely need some TLC.

Incredible course! The views are exceptional and the arid desert feel combined with the ocean is unforgettable. The winds can be challenging, but the course is set up to work around.them. The 19th hole is one of the best we've encountered. Can't wait to go back!

Wow this course has some of the most awesome views you will ever see on a golf. Even goats walking the course.
realizing it is 85 and sunny every day, and no rain, it is difficult to keep the course hydrated, The greens vary in speed and are very flat. the layout is wonderful. We finished in under 4 hours and had to wait to tee off on the last 4 holes. If I spent a $165 on a course here in the states and it was in this condition I would have been asking for a refund.

That said I would recommend it while on vacation.

Rental Clubs were excellent with Scotty putters. Lots of fun and surprisingly good conditions considering the lack of rainfall on the island. Plays fast (under 4 hours for our group). Goats make the scenery awesome. I was pleasantly surprised with the condition of the green considering the island. One tip, do not go looking for a ball in the brush as thorns are wicked. Looking forward to playing the course again next year!

This course is a fun but challenging one. It is also pretty expensive.

Wind is challenging. Beautiful views and worth playing while vacationing

The greens were in very good shape, the fairways had some dry spots but most of the surface was playable; the wind is really hard to account for; I was lucky enough not go in any bunkers but the looked ok; overall it was a good experience but also a little pricey, it’s the only 18 holes course on the island and they take advantage of that, great layout though

I've played many courses in the Caribbean and this was one of the better ones. The condition is typical of island clubs yet this has a great design and offers lots of challenge. Aruba is always breezy so be sure to enjoy the ocean views and bring a couple of extra balls. My wife and I played when our cruise made a stop. better option then shopping.

Played on 10/23. Course has a nice layout, with some nice holes. I recognize this is a seaside links course, but the course was in pretty poor shape. Fairways were very thin, with bare spots and weeds in places. Rough was untended,
The rental clubs were the absolute worst I have ever used — rust spots, worn, and not a complete set. The golf bad was rotting, as was the back cover on the cart.. I cancelled ny second tee time

Surprised Troon (which manages) would let it get this way. Will send a copy of this to them
This could be a really nice course with some rehab done

Would recommend only because it is the only course available

Spectacular views , great layout , a true testament to the state of your game while playing in windy conditions. Beverage person very nice as were all staff in the club house & at the halfway house. Have played 3 times and cant wait to play again. 19th hole personnel were charming and enjoyable.

We played a 4some on May 2nd. Myself and my wife along with 2 work colleagues. It was probably the windiest golf I have ever played and I am form Oklahoma!. 40+ mph wind but beautiful course. We saw goats and an occasional iguana on the course. The fairways were pretty decent and the greens were a little slow compared to what most people are used to. I managed to shoot 83 and felt like I had shot 70. The greens were reachable in regulation as long as you club up or down for wind. I was hitting a 135 club for 100 yd shot into the wind. Beer is very expensive. $6 per brew. If you are a true golfer and want to play 18 different holes (not 9 twice) while in Aruba, then this is it. Fun experience.

Only 18 hole course on the island. Slope rating of 119 from the Whites is deceiving because it doesn't account for the ever-present wind. We're talking a 2 club wind which changes direction almost every hole as the course is constantly changing direction as well. Driving range a waste because of the wind. Course not in great shape. Best part is the pace because you rarely see another golfer. We played twice in a week and finished in under 3 1/2 hours each time. We won't bring clubs next time we visit Aruba.

Because it's the only 18 hole course of the island, I can see why they get the price. I recommend bringing your own clubs.

Very good course well placed w/ terrific views of the ocean. Extreme ocean winds make this course very challenging but it's worth it if you like the challenge. Go for it.
