Great layout but overpriced & mediocre conditions

Played this course 4 years ago for about $150. Rates have been increase to almost $300, which is way overpriced for the course conditions. The track layout is great but not worth what they are charging these days. Luckily, found a hot tee time deal for about $125.

Great day!

Such a challenging course but fun to play! The hidden green on hole 15 was a surprise along with some of the dry desert conditions along the fairways. Recommend playing this course at least once!

I loved the course! It is a beautiful, great layout!

This is an incredibly beautiful course that is in excellent condition and presents a great golfing experience for all golfers. Staff were very welcoming and accommodating. It is the best “ocean” course that I have ever played!

Nice course - not so much on amenities

Only no private full 18-hole course on island of Aruba. Some really nice vistas, challenging holes and pins, but the wind will make you fly. Up or Down on each hole. Unfortunately, for the rates they charge the amenities are lacking. The free driving range is pretty bad, with mats and missing rubber tees, ancient and filthy range balls that you hit out to a dirt pit. There is a beverage cart, that did come around at least four times during the round, but there is no concession to buy any food. The one snack shack was closed and never opened on any of the days I played. In the end the golf was good but would have expected better value.

Haven in one Happy Island

This golf course is a total gem. The layout is the most unique I have ever played. The fairways and greens were excellent. The Goats came out on holes number 3 to 6. The 17 miles per hour winds made the adventure memorable. The final hole is a challenging uphill par 4, with the wind at your back and the setting sun on your face. Bravo

Trent Jones, in the tradition of Royal Westmorland in Barbados this is a must play Gem in the Caribbean.

Caribbean gem!!

This by far is one of my favorite golf course is in a Caribbean. Played five different islands courses. Monday and Friday is the fantastic because there’s no traffic at all. Fast for a slow as you like. They do a great job to maintain a course that is constantly getting wind blowed. By the trade winds.

The course is in great shape and the staff were knowledgeable and friendly.. The only thing I wish it had was a monthly rate for people who spend the winter in Aruba.

Nice

Very nice layout and course. The wind makes this an extremely challenging course. Views are gorgeous. Not worth the money honestly. It was $365 with golf club rental. That kind of money course should be pristine. I wouldn’t play if I were a resident. I only played because I’m vacationing there. I would recommend playing it once.

Great views and challenging course

The course has been upgraded over the last two years and is finally in beautiful condition!

Great views and challenging holes.

Only wish they would offer local homeowners discounts so the course would be busier and would play more often

Enjoyable if you like wind

It is my understanding course is under new ownership, money invested in the course. The course was fantastic, green where in needed to be, fast. For an RTJ course I only lost 1 ball, very happy with that. Staff was fantastic, very accommodating, beverage cart made its round 4 times during play. Stay hydrated. Water was all over on the course but with the winds you forget to drink water. Will definitely made another trip back.

Major improvements under new ownership

I have played Tierra del Sol for over 20 years. Unfortunately, starting about 5-7 years ago, the course started to deteriorate and got to the point where grass was growing in the bunkers and the greens were pretty much unplayable. Fortunately, the course was sold and the new owners have brought it back to what it once was. While it is still an island course with some blemishes, I look forward to playing this like I did 10 years ago. The staff has always been excellent. The ladies in the pro shop are very sweet. The entire crew deserves to work at a course golfers want to play at. I am happy to say Tierra del

Sol is that once again!
